Someone the music industry is trying to push on the public that nobody is willing to admit that they don't like, like Jellyroll and Bebe Rexha (who got booed at the Thanksgiving game in Detroit last year).

Breaks my ❤️.

Somehow, the Bears have a chance to win this thing.

They’ll find a way not to, but still.

[adambr2]

Two dead ball timeouts with the clock stopped when you need to protect the clock. Only the Bears.

[adambr2]

I can’t believe how much of a joke the Bears are.

[yourout]

Wow. What a cluster.

[HarryDoyle]

Feel free to snap the ball at any time.

Mind numbing.

How do you end the game like that with a timeout?

[HarryDoyle]

It really must suck to be a Bears fan. I hope we never reach that degree of ineptitude.

Equal shares.. Williams and the HC

I'd say it's on the HC. You should REALLY be smart enough to know, call the TO, then have the FG team ready to run them out there. 

But the few plays before when they called a TO and Williams looked pissed and was kinda waiving off the coaches, he just doesn't seem coachable. 

Immensely talented, but I wonder if he's coachable. 

 

That's the first time watching this absolute joke of a franchise I've ever been annoyed about it rather than bemused. 

[yourout]

Eberflus probably just signed his own pink slip. 

Maybe as early as tomorrow.

[adambr2]

I see Jordan Love remains the only FOX Thanksgiving winner who doesn’t get a turkey leg for some reason that was still never explained.

[adambr2]

I don’t have a problem with saving the timeout, but you HAVE to hike the ball with at least 10 seconds left on the clock.

Or burn it immediately, play for 5-10 yards and get ready for the fire drill FG.

Keeping it in your pocket and running it all the way down to 6 seconds before the snap was not an option. 

Did not help that they burned two timeouts with the clock stopped in the last 3 minutes of the game because Caleb runs the play clock down to nothing on every single snap.

Is Williams purposefully playing bad to get out of Chicago asap, or is he just bad.  How is Chicago this dumb at the end of games?

Coaching. There's a reason they haven't had a halfway decent quarterback since McMahon.

How many rookie QB’s are leading their team to late 4th quarter wins?  He probably has had more chances than any other rookie QB in NFL history just in the last 4-weeks.  I haven’t looked but I believe the majority of rookie QB’s are getting blown out week after week than they are playing competitive games.

The problem is the HC here.  If they play better in the first half it is probably an easier win.

Not really. Nix and Daniels are both winning games and look far better than Caleb while having their respective teams competing for the playoffs.

Penix is a redshirt. Maye is probably the only one who fits this description but he has far worse of a supporting cast than Caleb and is showing promise as well.

[HarryDoyle]

Oh well, it will be fun watching the Bears post game podcasts on YouTube later.

Both Nix and Daniels are looking very similar to Caleb and Daniels has been losing games for Washington with the turnovers in the last two games.  Nix lost a 4th quarter comeback to the Chiefs on a similar play that Williams did to the Packers.  It hasn't really been on Williams it is the HC and not Williams that is the problem for the Bears. 

Not sure what you were watching but Caleb played really well in the 2nd half.  The Bears have been absolutely awful in the 1st half other than against the Jaguars, Packers and Panthers.  The Packers game was the first time the Bears had a 1st half lead since the Jaguars game in October.  This is a HC problem and not a QB problem.  Caleb needs to work on some things but when he is not holding onto the ball for a long time he has looked really good.  He hasn't thrown an INT since 10/13 I am not sure why you think he is not looking as good as Nix or Daniels.  He has been looking really good since Brown has taken over at OC for the Bears.

Williams had zero awareness of the clock, standing there like he had all the time in the world.  I hate the Bears and even I was screaming “Snap it” at the TV, LOL.  He has the physical tools, but just seems to mentally check out at times.
