That level of incompetence doesn’t exist. 32 out of 32 NFL head coaches call timeout at 20 seconds there if they’re trying to win the football game.

    This was about a draft pick or a bet or something. There’s no chance anyone trying their best could have done that.

    I'm in the "never attribute to malice that which can be explained by incompetence" camp myself. I think that coach is gone following the season, of not the weekend.

    To think that the Bears coach defended it by saying “I think we handled it the right way “

    If that’s what you think then you shouldn’t be a head coach. That’s a fireable offense right there

    Matt Eberflus fired by the Bears. I'd take a victory lap if it wasn't so obvious it would happen.

    Wonder if he still gets to keep the timeout?

    Marvin Lewis did it often.

    Somehow Marvin never got fired for it.

    The 49ers are having a Bengals-like season from hell

    Rank the top-three teams regarding "Most Disappointing Season" among these qualified teams:

    New York Giants, Cincinnati Bengals, Dallas Cowboys, San Francisco 49ers, Jacksonville Jaguars, New York Jets, Cleveland Browns, Chicago Bears, Carolina Panthers, Las Vegas Raiders

    I can't choose between Bengals, 49ers, Jags, and Jets.

    I'd choose Cowboys, Bengals & Jets because of expectations. 49ers were destroyed by injuries, so I can't put them in that group.

    Bengals, Jags and Jets. The Cowboys were also devastated by injuries.

    Unlike the rest of that group, the Cowboys are one win next weekend away from being able to say with a straight face that they're in the hunt for the playoffs.

    Jameis Winston doing Jameis Winston things tonight in Denver.

    400 yards passing and 30+ points of offense… plus two pick-6’s in a loss.
