Week 5 Official TNF Palate Cleanser Loss Thread - CHI @ WAS, THU, OCT 5, 715PM CDT, Amazon, +6.5, 44.5 O/U
I'm all aboard the tank train again this year, but I really want to see Justin Fields get a win at some point soon, just for the sake of his mental state. He's a good kid who's been put in a god awful situation. I'd love nothing more than to see him light it up against Thursday and pull of an upset win against a team that he had beaten last year around this time.

Weekly Tankathon Meter
Bears are going to have to earn the #1 spot this year even more than last year because of their cake schedule. I read an article about how teams that have started off 0-4 have had the #1 pick in 15 of the past 21 drafts. The Panthers are the only other 0-4 team right now, and the Bears just so happen to have their pick!

I've Seen Enough...
Matt Eberflus has lost 12 games in a row and his defense has given up at least 25 points in every one of those losses, which is now an NFL record.

Shanahan has a proven track record with quarterbacks. Come on. He made Matt Ryan into an MVP. Jimmy G took them to a SB, and now he's turned Brock Purdy into a star. There's a reason why 75% of the league is offensive head coaches. The Bears are on their way to 13 consecutive losses. What is the argument here, that Matt Eberflus is doing a good job??

Week 3 Official Loss Thread - CHI @ KC, 9/24, 3:25PM CDT, Bears -50, O/U 72
Would be hilarious if they won this game when nobody is picking them. I'm not betting on it. Assuming they start 0-3, that'll mean the Bears will have lost 13 games in a row. At that point, you have to start asking the question of how many consecutive losses can Eberflus withstand before you have to fire him? Will Ryan Poles even be allowed to make that decision because of how bad it's gotten?

I've Seen Enough...
It's becoming clearer by the week that Fields isn't it. He's getting worse, his release is slower, his drop has been slower; he's not even running anymore. It's Mitch Trubisky 2019. I would say I can't believe the Bears ruined another young, promising quarterback, but then again, I'm not. THIS is exactly why you should never hire a defensive head coach to be in charge of developing the quarterback. It's just way too important of a position to take that gamble on, and it looks like the Bears are paying the price for that now. I'd say he gets until mid-season before you pull the plug and go with Bagent. He started off slow last year, too, and with some actual help from the coaching staff, he did manage to turn things around enough to make the end of the season a more intriguing watch. The reality is that the problems run much deeper than the quarterback. Depending on how bad it gets, I think we are awfully close to having to go with the nuclear option and start over completely with a new HC AND GM. Don't make the same mistake you made with Ryan Pace in letting him make another QB selection before firing him the next season. Just start fresh and allow everybody's timeline to line up perfectly, for once!

Flus and Getsy on the hot seat?
I don't think the Bears have ever fired a coach in the middle of a season, but starting 0-9 would mean they would have lost, what, 19 games in a row? I don't see how any coach survives that. It's hard for me to see them being that bad, but you hate to think where the team morale would be if they lose next week with KC coming up after that. You'd be staring 0-3 right in the face wondering if your season is already over less than a month into the season.

Flus and Getsy on the hot seat?
Unfortunately, I don't see Poles firing his guy unless the season completely goes off the rails again. Less than 6 wins would probably do it. This team doesn't do anything well, and I'm still waiting for his brilliant cover 2 defense to show up at some point during his coaching tenure. It's never a good sign when a coach can't get his side of the ball to function at all. The Bears weren't just bad last year, they were the 32nd ranked defense in football and won just 3 games. I get there is a talent deficiency up front, but you'd like to think that if you hired a defensive minded coach, he'd be able to mitigate some of that with coaching. Vic Fangio took a defense with Pernell Mcphee and nobody else and made them average by year 2. It's only one game in to year 2 for Eberflus, but this was the absolute worst possible performance you could have expected for a week 1 matchup in a game you absolutely had to have, and they got absolutely railroaded by a guy making his 2nd career start on the road.

He can't even complete passes in prevent defense.

Will Fields even reach 200 passing yards before the end of this game? It's amazing how unreachable that number seems to be for him—even as bad as the Bears have been the last two years. So much garbage time, and he still struggles.

It wouldn't be a Packers/Bears game without a 4th quarter interception by the quarterback.

Matt Eberflus, you are officially on the hot seat. This is an absolute embarrassment.

It's only a 1 score game, but if GB scores again to open the 2nd half, they're really going to put pressure on the Bears offense to do something, and soon. Just absolutely terrible execution in that 1st half, offensively. They can't block, can't run, and aren't really even threatening anything downfield, whatsoever. Jordan Love has been meh since the first drive, but if the Bears DL continues to stick to their blocks as much as they did in that 1st half, It wouldn't surprise me at all to see Love settle in and start gashing the Bears downfield in the 2nd half.

What the hell are these play calls? These WR screens make me want to scream. GB with a perfect opportunity to end the half with points. Just terrible execution, once again, by this offense—putting the defense in a severe disadvantage.

The trend of 1st down plays that go for negative or no yards has to stop.

Back to back good defensive stands. Time to finally put the ball in the endzone, offense.

Can't settle for FG's!!! Had a great drive going that they let stall out on a couple negative plays.

Negative plays on first down are killing this team. Neither team is having success to passes in the flat.

Somehow came away with 3 on that drive. 2 false start penalties and a stupid 15 yard penalty on Moore. If the defense can force a punt, they can restabilize this game from getting crazy. Another Packer TD and it's mayhem.
