The Chicago Bears fired coach Matt Eberflus on Friday, less than 24 hours after a series of mental lapses unfolded in the chaotic, final 30 seconds of his team’s Thanksgiving Day loss at Detroit. Eberflus’ sacking followed a meeting with Bears Chairman George McCaskey and team President Kevin Warren, according to General Manager Ryan Poles. "We extend our gratitude for his commitment to the Chicago Bears and wish him and his family the best moving forward.”Warren acknowledged the importance of the head-coaching role and emphasized the team's commitment to its fans. Eberflus opted against calling his third and final timeout at that moment. The Thanksgiving Day disaster in Detroit came a month after the Bears lost to the Washington Commanders, 18-15, when Jayden Daniels connected with Noah Brown on a 52-yard Hail Mary as time expired.
