The Chicago Bears fired coach Matt Eberflus less than 24 hours after a series of mental lapses in a Thanksgiving Day loss at Detroit. The decision to move in a different direction with the leadership of the football team was made after a meeting with team officials. General Manager Ryan Poles thanked Eberflus for his dedication and professionalism. The Bears lost the game due to disorganization in the final 30 seconds, failing to capitalize on opportunities to tie or win. Offensive coordinator Thomas Brown has been appointed as the interim head coach. This is a developing story, and updates will be provided.
