1. As a Bears fan this is the validation we have been needing as a fan base for a while. This team is wild to root for and watch week to week season to season. Flus needs to go though, Bear down

2. Mccaskeys need to sell

3. I know that I'm going to get a lot of disagreements from bears fans I understand that but on eberfluss defense. do some of y'all know that it takes time to be a good team in sports..yes I know Matt been with the bears for a couple years but look what happened last year they turned the team around but they got rid of Justin so now it's a new ground up with Caleb if they get rid of Matt eberfluss his coordinators. are going to leave with him … yes Thomas Brown been decent so far but do yah know that the plays come from the head coach.coordinators and head coaches are two different jobs. so this whole fire matt eberfluss thing doesn't make any sense. I will say at least give him another year

4. I can’t recall the source but the gist was that in the GB game their special teams noticed in their film study that the Bears kicker, when fairly close to the goal line, kicked at a shallow angle. So GB was especially prepped to block the punt. And they did.

   I agree with the bald guy: offensive coaching could be a lot better.

5. Go ahead and take Matt as your head coach next year then 🙄😂😂 Caleb needs a head coach who knows what a real offense looks like

6. I get that Rich doesn't like to call for HC jobs but come on. Outside of the offense that Thomas Brown is leading, the team has fallen apart. Flus needs to go.

7. Rich said last year this was the “best situation for a rookie QB” .

8. I agree that Caleb Williams is playing well despite the coaching, not because of it. He would be killing it with Lions coaching right now.

9. Bears fan here. What’s going on is that Flus is an incompetent head coach. Terrible situation football, his team plays like the personality of flus which is soft. Why else would the defense be playing bad

10. Things take time

    Do you need to make the playoffs in the first year?

11. Eberflus isn't a leader, he's an excuse-finder.

12. So special teams doesn’t report to the head coach? smh

13. Fire everloose

14. Eberflus is good for at least one brain fart a game. Rich likes the Super H.I.T.S principal.

15. Caleb didn't hold on to the ball in overtime, he needed someone to use their brain and get open so he could throw it to them. All his receivers on that play were bracketed and his RB and TE blocked the same player, so he had nobody to throw to.

16. Eberflus isn't even a good DC. He has zero creativity with pressures.

17. We should have gotten Harbaugh and Kingsbury… smh

18. EverFlub sucks. Get real Rich…. What,do you share an agent with him?

19. Playoffs……..Playofffs??????????

20. This isn’t that hard to figure out. Flus has them unprepared…and it shows by how chaotic the sidelines are and his logic, or lack there of, in press conferences

21. Forget firing Flus during the season. The McCaskeys are still running the Bears. Da Bears will have to win these last 6 games. Make the playoffs. And not look like complete garbage in any of those games, win or lose, for Flus to not get axed on Black Monday.

22. I swear Rich is gaslighting me (Bears fan here)

23. Count all the BIG losing streaks per season after 2018. Think 6 is the average.

24. Rich, before you speak can you do some research please? What's Flus's record? How many challenges has he won? How many situations has he been in where he's made the wrong choice? C'mon man its clear as day it's Flus. Flus hired those OCs and chose Waldron over Thomas

25. Chance favours the prepared mind and Dental Flus is not a prepared coach.

26. Jim Harbaugh could be coaching the Bears. thats the real fumble of the franchise

27. This is why the Chicago bears need to just throw there then checkbook at Ben Johnson and tell him just fill in a jumble and show up to Halas hall with your playbook . Thomas has done a great job with Caleb but I agree with Chris . Get this Caleb a legit offensive minded head coach and we will get so much more out of him . He’s not even close to scratching the surface on his potential

28. There will always be another excuse. Weve seen 3-4 decades of it at this rate. Bad teams lose, especially with poor coaches and out of touch ownership.

29. Darnold had a better day than Williams. No respect.

30. Eberflus needs to go and Thomas Brown needs an audition for HC. He has been doing great with Caleb the last two weeks.

31. Poor Eisen is 🗑️

32. Holding onto the ball too long still, obviously he only watched the one play. His release times have been the lowest the past two weeks. SMH…speak from facts and not highlights

33. They need new ownership, but that’s not happening.

34. The in game strategy and clock management has been terrible

35. Bad News Bears

36. 5-18 in single score games. Never won a SINGLE TIME on the road on Sunday. More bad challenges, more terrible clock management. Yes, yes I can absolutely blame the coach.

37. Playoffs? You talking about playoffs? I just hope we can win a game.

38. With a better coaching staff at the beginning of the season, the Bears are in playoff contention. They are now 3 plays away from 3 more wins.

39. Bears are unfocused, uninspired, undisciplined, and underachieving. In game decision making sucks. All that is directly Eberflus' responsibility. He needs to go. Either on black Friday or the end of the season, he's got to go.

40. Bears will win on Thanksgiving Day! The Lions are severely beat up . 9 starters didn't practice today ! Chicago owns Detroit on Thanksgiving! The Lions are a great team but think thanksgiving they might drop one . ( Lions fan )

41. "They didn't clear house last year, when they knew they were getting a quarterback…" Yes… because the Bears are run poorly.

42. good convo – problem is Flus however

43. It lays at the feet of McCaskey… you pick a USC quarterback, this is the result. Gayleb Williams is a fluff.

44. Chris Brockman would discount Santa Clause

45. not our year anyways, wasn't even our year at the start of the season, we know that we are a few pieces away, but the biggest piece is HC
