Chicago Bears Fire Matt Eberflus After Historic Mid-Season Decision

The Chicago Bears have fired head coach Matt Eberflus following a loss to the Lions, with the decision made during a multi-hour meeting involving team executives. Interim head coach Thomas Brown, previously the offensive coordinator, now has five games to prove his suitability for the permanent role. Team president Kevin Warren, who has been active in football operations, is expected to be part of the search committee for a new head coach. The Bears are considering offensive-minded candidates to support quarterback Caleb Williams' development if Brown does not secure the position.
