He is an Aaron Rodgers in the making :o

[@1nm1]

I am 99.9% sure the QB was NOT doing that to TRY to get the coach fired. Pretty sure he realizes the coach will be gone at the end of the season already. Remember he just took a sack AND was slow to get up afterward. When that happens and you have a time out in your pocket you USE it so the QB can recover from the sack, get his head & body back into the game and prepare for the last couple plays.

[@dentonyoung4314]

The only time I saw worse clock management was at the end of the first half of the Rams-Bears NFC Championship in 1985. The Rams recovered a fumble on the Bears' 21 with 64 seconds left in the first half and one timeout. They called two runs up the middle, then threw the ball to the running back on a quick angle route over the middle and he got tackled right as the clock hit zero. They never used their timeout.

[@GoodNyew]

Hilarious the offensive lineman had to tell the captain to get the play going

[@jamesfortune243]

Interesting that Chicago's fear of giving the Detroit offense the ball with time on the clock was a contributing factor.

[@1nm1]

Despite the FACT the only reason the Bears had a CHANCE was because their defense had greatly slowed down Detroit most of the game.

[@TheBizziniss]

I’m a lions fan because I grew up in Michigan but I live out here by Chicago (wife is from here) and I knew this game was gonna be tough for us. The bears have issues for sure but what they got going for them matches up well against our deficiencies. Their defense is pretty good, their offensive line play is not that good but their receivers are great and Caleb, as much as I dislike him as a human, is squirmy in the pocket and has a great arm. We have injuries all over and we aren’t great at producing a consistent pass rush, so their bad Oline isn’t going to be a consistent problem for them. We always have problems with mobile QBs and that presented itself today. Our DBs were overmatched against their WRs half the game and we had to run AGs vanilla defense because of all the injuries. So little QB pressure for half the game, plus we were man most of the time and Caleb either had time in the pocket or easily escaped the pocket to buy time for his receivers to get open, which they are going to do given time because they are good receivers. I’m glad we won but we probably shouldn’t have. When we dominated the first half but only walked away with 16 points I had that feeling I had at halftime of the NFC championship game. I knew they were gonna make adjustments and we probably couldn’t make many because of the injuries, at least on defense. I have no excuse or explanation for the offense. We won because the Bears were inept at the end. Not because we played so well. They had all the momentum, we had no answers for what they were doing and the refs seemed to favor them quite a bit. If Caleb was a savy vet or Eberflus was better at time management we probably would have lost the game in overtime.

[@cleigh212001]

The problem for Caleb when you watch the video through is the receivers on the left weren’t lined up correctly. DJ Moore had to reset after it looks like Cole Kemt says something to him. If he snaps it’s a penalty as Dj Moore was still getting set

Guys, both tackles let the edge rushers go right on by like they weren't even there. Then they just stand around for 15 seconds before finally getting lined up, at which point they proceed to do nothing for another 10 seconds before snapping the ball. And as the uploader mentioned, _even_ _then_ they could have literally done anything else besides a deep pass to at least have a chance at the field goal.

[@shadowdemon2272]

Seriously. Give the Chiefs 13 seconds and they can get down the field into tying FG range. Give the Bears 36 seconds and they'll get themselves out of tying FG range (possible winning TD range?) and lose the game, somehow...

[@1nm1]

As bad as the coach is and make no mistake the coach IS historically bad, since it NEVER is a good look when a coach makes decisions based on what MIGHT happen in the future, while IGNORING what NEEDS to happen now (ie wanting to let the clock run down to 18 seconds). That all being said, I only partly blame the coach for this one. It is pretty obvious as the clock winds down that the QB thinks they are OUT of timeouts. Remember he is a rookie QB, he also was a bit slow after the sack (which likely rattled him a bit) and if this happened at Ohio State the coach likely would have used the final time out IMMEDIATELY after the sack (or at least immediately after seeing the QB is slow to recover after the sack). As a result, the QB's thinking was probably along the lines of no time out was called, so we must be out of time outs. Why is the coach calling another "dumb" play, I need to change it to something that is near the end zone.

[@thenewkid191]

I was like oh they arent taking a time out 10seconds left uh why arent they hiking

[@thenickfoxx]

[@dogster486]

This is exactly what I have been saying. That is not how a potential superstar QB plays. His potential is middle of the pack at best. People want to make the excuse he is a rookie. This is basic day 1 QB play. You practice until you have dreams about the 2 minute offense and need to be aware of the clock and not snap the hall with 6 fucking seconds left. You wasted 26 seconds standing around looking like you never played a snap at QB. I get changing the play or whatever but at that point you might as well just call the timeout. Bad coach and bad QB play. Both can be true.

[@ringringbananarchy]

Everyone blaming Eberflus.....remember, Caleb Williams waited too long to hike the ball (it doesn't help that his linemen and WRs were moving around instead of getting set in time), then he held the ball too long, and threw the WRONG play. If he takes the snap 2 seconds earlier and throws an under-route, they Bears are kicking the tying fieldgoal attempt with the clock running out on that play, looking to head into OT. This is on Caleb Williams.

[@BigBoyJay_69]

It's 100% on the head coach. It's literally his entire job.

[@brianmartindale2221]

That may have been the strangest game ending I have ever seen. I thought for sure the Lions lost that game or at the very least it was OT. The Gibbs fumble was the turning point of that game and the Lions genuinely got lucky to walk away with a Dub

[@garyrentschler6082]

The turning point was a slew of Lion's D getting hurt. By the beginning of the 4th quarter, there were probably 6 or 7 backups playing D!!

[@Xhadp]

You summed up my thoughts with the importance of analyzing it beyond the failure to call the TO with the QB playing a role in it. The sack is an important takeaway and key about this play sequence so there should be huge credit given to that as well. Eberflus' job is still on razor thin ice even if you can shift the blame of ending. You have to guarantee he is getting fired before the next game.

[@myasbias7517]

Ball on detroit 25 theres three plays here: 2 shots in the end zone and a run w/ swift to help the kicker then call timeout. Bad coaching 100% you do not have Lamar jackson you have a rookie losing confidence week after week due to last minute game decisions.

[@PeakUnlimited]

Eberflose needs to be fired, The sample is larger than needed. Leaving a timeout on the board and running that play deep is unaceptable in the NFL. We need experienced coaching that put all players in good positions and with winning attititudes. Look at Denver with Bo Nix at QB and Sean Payton ?

Even worse they would not won the HUGE mistakes. They have a time out left And lose game holding a time as if its like cell phone minutes and think "Lets save it for the next" Hello? Time outs don't carry over to the next game. Use or lose it. They could have kicked a FG and tied game, win the coin toss and win the game. But.. Caleb has not sense of urgency like has all the time in the word. He eats up the clock for the lions 00 left never used the time out and never kicked a FG. They could have done both. Run a play then call TO kick a FG = Gaurnteed over time at the least. Or outright win the game. I have never seen this in my life, were were lucky to win. But Caleb is so stupid he does not seem to know what happened. In post game interview he was babbling "oh well we took a shot" Like he had no idea he had a time out to burn. You don't do a long count like he did. He is a MORON and will never be a great QB he is way to stupid. He has skills but not between the ears. He is a choker and I feel terrible for the bears. As a lions fan I'll take the win but it feels cheap like a gift.

As a Lions fan, I heartily thank Eberflus and Williams for their generosity as we head into the holiday season.

That one play seemed to get the Bears to wake up and make a game out of what was turning into a rout.

This goes on Eberflus the head coach. An NFL head coach is allowed to call a timeout simply by flagging down the ref. By the time there was about 15 seconds on the clock, everyone in the stadium except Eberflus was shocked he wasn't calling timeout. Eberflus was literally the last guy in the building to identify the ignorance to the game clock. Damn near fireable offense. Beyond braindead.

[@athras8822]

At 15 seconds the offense was set, I don't know why it took Caleb another 7 seconds to snap the ball. Flus should have called it, but I can see why he didn't. The offense was set, Caleb was already upset that sideline wasted 2nd timeout.

Williams has absolutely ZERO Football Sense. Had No Idea what his situation was and therefore how to handle it.

The QB HAS to be In Charge and directing everyone very quickly, then getting the ball snapped and play underway efficiently.

[@DannyWilliamH]

Lions fan here. I think it was a convergence of things, all mentioned in the video. HC sees his QB get upset at the earlier TO. Williams likely tells him something along the lines of "I had it under control". So when it came time for the HC to take that decision away the next time (post sack), he doesn't. His QB has it under control... ...but that QB is a rookie that definitely didn't have it under control. By the time he sees his QB doesn't have the situation under control it's too late to use the TO. In his presser he can blame the QB, which is a bad idea or blame himself, which is a bad idea...so he says he was happy with what they did. Coachspeak for we definitely both fd up but anything I say is bad so I'll say nothing.

[@tBeNz0]

1:01 here me out: Both tackles appear to miss blocking assignments, and the center charges 5 yrds downfield to block the LB...was that a designed run for Caleb? Maybe to grab a few yrds, call timeout, kick FG? Bc if it was a pass, Center blatantly ineligible man downfield, right? And Tackles push DE's back behind them, almost like they expected Caleb to run up the middle and not be there. Either that or their OL resembles a pickup game of drunk Uncles on Thanksgiving.

That is what no Caleb defender will ever admit. All the fans of any team want to do is blame the coaching. To admit a guy who's played the game since grade school in most cases, who've been taught over and over the 2 minute offense and time management has as much to do with the teams loss, as a guy on the sideline, well that just preposterous.

I agree with the decision to not call the timeout and try to run 1 play to get into FG range first. The problem was obviously execution.

[@theronin9984]

Thank you Matt E.!! 🤔🤠

[@pdizzle5302]

The problem with coach's logic is that the opposing defense can probably get back on defense slower than usual and cost valuable seconds off the clock. Calling a timeout immediately preserves all 32 seconds and allows you to come up with a good play. At the very least calling the timeout first allows you to figure out and set up a play.

[@briansmith4300]

I loved when the lions were caught off guard and were surprised they won ... 😅 I kept saying where's the heartbreaking last second flag to give the bears the chance to kick the field goal.

Eberflus may have the title of Head Coach but is, in actuality, a lot closer to a spectator

[@JCEurovisionFan1996]

Matt Eberflus' tenure ends on this game. He's fired.

[@kennethrainero8664]

One wonders why the play clock is running, it might have confused somebody..

[@tinyb69]

Only thing I can think, is that the veteran coach was trying to let his rookie QB learn that he has control of the clock, instead of the head coach. Just picked the absolute worst time to make that decision.

[@michaelodonovan6162]

Can explain, can not justify

[@CoolWhipp-hy1qu]

That pi call right before should never have happened. Refs also missed a false start on the same play

[@jamezbrian4135]

11-1, love it. Super DUPER Bowl = Steelers vs Lions. Steelers win

[@AremuJejeofdavillage]

Looks like that’s win #3 that the coaching or late game stupidity has cost Caleb. Looks like somebody is throwing these games 😮

[@nolanbuddy8833]

The good news for the Bears is that they didn’t give the ball back to Lions offense like Eberflus was worried about

[@cvrbon6]

Should've shown the play before this where Caleb throws an absolute DUCK at Moore's feet that would've probably went to the house

[@jayinmaine]

Disgraceful. Then he stands by it. Eberflus should be fired on Friday. Also Williams doesn’t have it. No successful quarterback in history would be involved with mismanagement like that. Only Prescott comes to mind. As a Patriots fan I was thrilled Chicago took him because I saw this in him. He’s going to have the same career as Daniel Jones. Chicago will hang on to him way too long. Inexcusable. Then listening to Williams talking about it during the press conference was nauseating. He and Eberflus are the only two on the planet that thinks that was acceptable

[@Uaintfirsturlast]

This is indicative of a poorly coached unprepared team

[@NirvzHD]

You're blaming Caleb for this when the 3rd option you didn't mention is also a viable one, although not ideal, and Eberflus STILL didn't opt for that either. If he sees the clock is run down too far (say 12 seconds), call timeout, take two passing shots at the endzone. If the Lions sell out in the endzone you have a chance to throw a quick out to the sideline into field goal range. THIS IS A BETTER OPTION THAN LETTING THE CLOCK RUN OUT. Eberflus choked, he doesn't know how to win, or better yet - he doesn't know how to prevent his team from losing. And for that Matt Eberflus, you're fired.

[@thealphabetsong4585]

6:06 is probably the most unserious moment in nfl history if you interpret it the wrong way

[@sloebone7399]

At least the time out transfers over to next week’s game. It does transfer to next week, right?

[@ros73dros]

The way the Lions played the 1st half the game should have been a blow-out for the Lions. 4x in the red zone and only 1 TD, ! 18 1st downs, over 250yrds in 1 half !!! And then...

[@Wil4568]

Clock mismanagement is on the head coach, period. To try and blame the rookie shows that you have no idea what you're talking about.

[@chriss5165]

Everyone gonna talk about Bears late mismanagement...not the Lions first half dominance

[@scottlowman.1044]

Starting to think it's rigged for the Lions now .

[@lightingthief4482]

Not really. The refs was gunning for the Lions all game long, especially that awful PI call. If anything, the Football gods jumped in to fix the error

[@peterjensen2483]

Looks like the play they actually ran had NOBODY run a route to the open middle for a potential quick catch and timeout. With the play they ran, knowing which play was coming, Eberlose should have called timeout with 7 sek left. Instead he just let his team loose.

[@leoda_lion4107]

This was a game the Bears should have won. Detroit is feeling the pressure of trying to hold onto that number one spot. I don't think there is any team left in the NFC that is not beatable. But what Eberflus did in this game is inexcusable. Of course, as a Packers fan, I don't mind a little help from the enemy. But leave it to the Bears to be DA Bears.....

[@troglokev]

You forget Mike McCarthy and Dak Prescott.

[@technomage6736]

Everyone blaming coach for the non timeout but how do you NOT get that ball snapped sooner? If you guys wanna blame coach, blame him for not having his guys prepped to hustle.

[@10thletter40]

The Bears players werent set, they werent hurrying up. Either let your players know before the call or get the timeout out there

[@smashfanatic]

The bears would have at least 2-3 more wins this season if they fired eberflus at the end of last season and brought in literally anyone else
