Neither of those choices. Only an idiot would make up such a question. How about fire Neverflush and hire Vrabel?

Would vrabel be interested? How often do out of house candidates come in mid season? Also, I’m 100% on board with an offensive HC to maintain continuity with Caleb. You mention multiple OCs with Caleb as a problem…so what happens if they hire a defensive HC and their OC gets poached after a year or 2? It’s a horrible idea

Correct. He did say tv

you are correct. Romo spotted that and called it. Williams should have stayed with the play. He’s a rookie and he will learn. But the idiot coach needs to recognize what’s going on and call a TO. The guy is oblivious to the situations.

Yeah this isnt that hard. Inexcusable to not call timeout once Flus so they went under 12 seconds.

Doesnt change the fact that Caleb just needs to run the play as called given the time on the clock.

Both tackles whiffed, and left Caleb to get absolutely smoked. LOL!

When they finally fire Eberflus, security needs to ROUGHLY escort Chris Morgan outta the fucking building. Call the CPD, and have him trespassed, if he doesn't get off the sidewalk fast enough. The offensive line has been a shitshow under Morgan.

I don't hate him. I want the bears not to do a bears move and retain people from a failed staff. You literally were asking him to be HC after one game.

No I said if he and Caleb finish the season strong it would be a Bears thing to do to make him HC.

Further you can disagree with that without then trying to piss on everything good he has done like you are doing.

Acknowledging he has been great for Caleb but still wanting a coaching change isnt mutually exclusive.

I'm not pissing on anything. I said he's been average. Average is great for Caleb after downright awful. Doesn't mean he should stick around or be HC. He might end up being the best HC of all-time, but generally guys that take over interim positions don't usually work out when hired long term afterwards. I'd rather not take the chance. It's 100% a Bears move.

I am not advocating he take over at interim. I am advocating that if Caleb and him finish the season strong he should interview for the HC job. He has already had HC interviews before so not like he isnt on NFL team's radars as a HC candidate. The big hole in his resume was play caller.

I also think saying he is average is selling him short. Brown had the Bears in position to beat 3 division rivals back to back to back and Flus and the Special Teams fucked it up. Not like he was calling games against the Panthers. He called games against 3 likely playoff teams.

Against the Vikings and Lions they were down multiple scores going into the 4th quarter with 7 & 10 points scored through 3 quarters, respectively. Let's stop pretending he's been Bill Walsh please.

Correct against 2 top 10 NFL defenses his QB struggled early but Brown found a way to get Caleb to perform against the toughest competition he has faced all year. I struggle to see how that is an issue.

Flores is one of the best defensive minds in the NFL and the Lions are the best team in the NFC and perhaps the NFL right now. Expecting there not to be struggles is silly. The point is Brown and Caleb overcame those struggled which quite frankly had nothing to do with his playcalling and everything to do with Caleb's inaccuracy at the start of the game.


I would also note Brown schemed a game winning play and Caleb threw the ball in the ground for some inexplicable reason. Brown cant throw the balls for Caleb.

Let's ignore the fact that the Lions were down 9 starters on defense. I'd rather focus on your phrasing of "struggled early"....Caleb and the Bears offense was virtually non-existent in the first half against Detroit. That cost the Bears the game moreso than anything else.

On the other side of things, I am curious as to how Brown is not at all in the conversation of the end of game screw up. Given that the right decision was to run a play then call timeout. If Caleb is complaining that it took 20 seconds for him to get the play call, who's fault was that? And then, Caleb should have still have ran Brown's play, right?

IMO, that was on Ebeflus. Brown cannot call the timeout from upstairs.

You also had guys way downfield that needed to get back to line up, etc.

It was immediately obvious that they needed to call a timeout after that sack, imo. And Eberflus botched it and it finally cost him more than just another game loss.

I agree. The fact that none of the three main characters (Flus, Brown, Caleb) had the sense to call timeout after a sack is mind-boggling.
