I generally tend to agree with you on many things Bears, but there have been multiple instances this season that point to poor management from the coaching staff. In many of those cases, the blame also encompasses individual players, but the head coach is always ultimately responsible when mistakes are made from a strategy standpoint. Eberflus has got to go. ASAP.

Agreed. Did Caleb make mistakes in the end of game situation? Yes. But once again the coaching staff bungled it. They use their second timeout in a dead ball situation, then fail to use the third when confusion reigned on the field. It’s almost incomprehensible how consistently bad Eberflus and his staff have been in end of game situations from the Commanders to Packers and now this Lions debacle.

Love how you're all saying it's the coaches, it's the coaches, yet no one has an answer for why Caleb didn't snap the ball. Also, you've loved the new OC the last 2 weeks and now...

The movie that never was...A Marist 8A State Championship

M
If you look at a earlier post of mine - I too - thought the LA vs Marist second round match up was a crime. And the loser of that game was a victim of once again the the seeding of 1-32 that counts all wins as equal. To me Marist gave LA a better game than LWE for sure. In the Marist game - I never felt LA was in control and it took the special team play to seal that deal. In the LWE game - in the second half you saw LA impose their will and you felt they where gonna come back and win. Never felt that in the Marist game. Marist O-Line did a great job. Great year for Marist and I feel your pain. That history and stats will show that this Marist team bowed out in the second round where I think that was at least a semi-final game. Given the Main South and LWE game's that followed. It was LA's toughest game so far in the playoff if that makes you feel any better which I doubt it does. And no surprise that Marist team belonged in the CCL Blue this year. Good luck next year !

They ran a play with 32 seconds left, Caleb got sacked. It's the play after that, at the LOS with 22 seconds left and he doesn't snap it until there's 6 seconds left. Flus can be seen in the replay yelling to snap the ball. Why did he wait 16 seconds at that point in the game before snapping the ball???

You need to go rewatch it. Your facts aren’t correct. In the chaos of everything - The guys weren’t even all back and lined up till 9 seconds to go.

I don’t blame a rookie QB for time Managment there. HC needs to own clock Managment … not a rookie QB.

As Bill Cowher said, “Eberflus just froze”

Oh yes, the old fire drill FG, that's a high percentage play 🙄.

They were back at the LOS with about 22 seconds left and Caleb didn't snap the ball until there was 6 seconds left! Still time to make a quick play and call the TO, but he danced around and then just heaved it as time expired.

Now if they were back at the line with 22 seconds left and the snap comes with 12-15 seconds you can make any play you want even over the middle then you call the TO and you can take your time with the FG.

Just saw highlights and you can even see Eberflus and players yelling to snap the ball.

It’s funny that everyone hates the coaches yet you have faith in them and want them to call a play and then be able to potentially rush the FG team out if the play would have been in bounds or think that they can call a successful sideline play. Similar to the GB game and everyone said they should have run another play before the FG yet you have no faith in the coaches. So which is it, the coaches are inept or you trust them to run more plays?

Eberflus needs to go. His record with the Bears

It’s not hard to run a play w 32 secs and then run the FG unit in. Thats a world of time.

These aren’t HS kids.


Eberflus has even defended the time management. Said he would do everything the same again. Dudes toast.

It’s 100% on Eberflus.

QB sacked with 32 secs left and WR’s down field. It’s going to take several seconds to get everyone back to the LOS and run a play.

You call TO with 32 secs and that leaves plenty of time to run a play and then run the FG squad out there.

The QB does what he’s told there. He’s not in charge of clock management and play calls.

Dude, quit making excuses for him. It’s week after week for him. Eberflus should be fired tomorrow. Problem is, we have no one so replace him with for the remainder of the season.

Why is it all on the coaches? Yes, he's improved and that's great, but he was good enough to win a Heisman and be drafted #1 overall he shouldn't need to be coached up to know you need to hurry when the clock is running out.

Also, what about the throw to DJ a few plays prior on the crossing route where Moore likely would have scored but the ball was behind him and at his feet. It's great that he's continuing to improve, but he still barely completed 50% of his passes today.

4A you don’t like him never have so you’re going to hate regardless what he does. Yes he is going to make mistakes yes he should’ve could’ve and would’ve. That’s when a good coach is there to help. The kid got his brains beat out in this game and the entire season but he keeps getting better. Did not see that? He has improved and he is setting records. Wins will come when the whole team improves and it needs to start with the coaching. The Bears have let this kid down in my opinion.
