Bears Dismiss Coach Eberflus Amidst Struggles in NFC North
TL;DR Summary
The Chicago Bears have fired head coach Matt Eberflus following a sixth consecutive loss, a 23-20 defeat to the Detroit Lions marked by clock mismanagement. Eberflus, who was confident about coaching the next game, was dismissed hours after a press conference. His tenure ended with a 14-32 record, the third-worst in franchise history, and a poor performance in one-score games. Interim offensive coordinator Thomas Brown will take over as head coach. The Bears' defense, once strong, has faltered during the losing streak.
