After losing to the Lions on Thanksgiving Day, the Bears parted ways with head coach Matt Eberflus
Friday morning Chicago Bears head coach Matt Eberflus gave a press conference where he provided an update on the state of the franchise in the wake of Thursday’s loss to the Detroit Lions, which dropped the team to 4-8 on the season, and into last place in the NFC North.
Hours later the state of the franchise no longer included him as the head coach.

A day after the Bears suffered their sixth straight loss, Chicago has fired coach Matt Eberflus, sources tell ESPN.
The clock management fiasco at the end of Thursday’s loss in Detroit sealed Eberflus’ fate.
It wasn’t possible for Matt Eberflus to survive a six-game losing skid, including three consecutive disastrous last-minute meltdowns, and the embarrassment of his coaching malpractice on Thanksgiving Day. So it was a matter of when, not if he’d be fired.
And by noon on Friday we got the answer to when.
Now.
Friday afternoon turned into a literal Black Friday for Eberflus when he met with club president and CEO Kevin Warren and general manager Ryan Poles and was fired.
It marks the first time the Chicago Bears, founded in 1920, have ever fired a head coach in-season.

The last time the Lone Star Showdown took place was in 2011, just before the Aggies set sail for the SEC, leaving the Big 12 behind for what it imagined were greener pastures.
