  1. Ehh...I'd rather not be looking for head coaching potential on the current staff. You don't want to end up like the Raiders who due to pressure from the players end up hiring their interim HC to be the permanent HC. They're now 2-8 and Pierce is likely to be fired. I know that's just one recent example but I guess I'm saying that the season is over...their playoff odds are apparently 1% at this point. I think its hard to evaluate the performance of a coach based on what are now meaningless games, and I'd rather do an actual HC search...don't give the Bears an opportunity to do something dumb because they'll probably do it. Moot point though because Eberflus isn't getting fired
  2. I know there’s butterfly effect and all of that but imagine a world where the Bears didn’t lose 3 games with 90+% odds of winning in the 4th quarter last year. They’re 10-7 and maybe in the playoffs. Imagine a world where the Bears defend a Hail Mary and don’t settle for a 46 yard FG when they had time and timeouts to get closer or at least move the ball to Santos’ preferred hash mark. They’re 6-4 and I believe in a playoff spot right now. Eberflus record goes from 14-30 to a more reasonable 19-25 and 16-11 over the last 2 years. Our playoff odds are currently at 1%. Changing those 2 things around and we’re probably around 50%. It’s just insane and I know I shouldn’t dwell on it. But it’s just dumbfounding and it’s hard to explain logically.
  3. The Packers players were apparently surprised the Bears didnt run another play or two. Shocker
  4. 1-16 in our last 17 against our arch rivals. Can’t remember if I already said that here or if it was in another place I’m venting at. You couldn’t have just given us this one sports gods? After all the horsefeathers we deal with as Bears fans? After all the terrible Chicago sports teams the last 7-8 years? Just one win over our hated rivals to feel good about ourselves? Anyways the Bears are now essentially 3.5 games out of the final NFC Wild Card spot due to losing the tiebreaker to Washington
  5. The ****** thing is he’ll still get credit for “pulling the team together” because they did everything they needed to win the except make the makable FG
  6. My wife thinks I’m crazy because I said like 5 times in a row “The Bears always miss this kick” as they were setting up. We all knew it was coming but it doesn’t make it suck any less.
  7. It’s too long to track. I’d be willing to bet my house that the Bears have had more soul crushing losses over the past 15 years than any other team. This isn’t a “only my teams” situation, I’m certain the Bears have had this happen more often
  8. Nah you play conservative and set yourself up for horsefeathers like this. Stupid to be scared of negative plays imo, 46 yards is not a chip shot for Santos.
  9. Just like I said. Conservative coaches lose games
  10. Unacceptable. 34 seconds and a timeout left and you just sit on a 46 yard FG. Fire Eberflus tomorrow
  11. I hate everything. Fire Eberflus
  12. This is Trestman in Minnesota all over again if he misses. Should have tried to gain more yards
  13. No you need more yards. Come on
  14. Omg. No sacks and please don’t miss the FG
  15. Perfect situation with Caleb needing to hit a deep pass as he’s been so adept at doing
  16. Of course 2 straight sacks. horsefeathers this
  17. I would have rather been blown out if we don’t come back to win
  18. Just let them score to give us a shot. Football is a stupid sport for stupid people
  19. And that’s gonna be the game most likely. Unreal
  20. Here we go. Either the Bears make a defensive stand and win or they give up a TD and lose. Dont see a scenario where the Bears have enough time for another possession unless they get a long TD play
  21. Nice. Lets at the very least get out of the shadow of our end zone
  22. It’s so great that we hired a defensive head coach so that we have a unit that will make big stops in close games to keep the momentum
  23. How the hell did we not stop that from being a completion? Unreal
  24. Caleb still throwing passes that are either wildly inaccurate or look to be miscommunication with the receiver
