Smith is close to him imo. Not as twitchy, but can play.

You're right, Flus called it passion, but Stevenson be out there actin' like an asshole sometimes. And this wasn't the 1st incident. I think other teams know that too and try to get into his head and he lets them.
Yep. They are using the Chauncey Gardener-Johson/Javon Wims playbook on him, baiting him into making dumb ass decisions. :smh:

Tyrique is a good player,but Terrell Smith may be as or more physically gifted. If Bears can get a 2nd,3rd or starting caliber G for Tyrique, don't rule it out.

They def not trading him. Not as much as Flus loves DBs, and Poles ain't letting go of dude he chose in the 2nd Round just last year.

Olin's probably right. They've probably been allowing TS to act out a little too much for too long ... he thinks he can just act a fool and it's whatever.

FUKK FLUS his passive banter, blah blah bullshyt
He is a better def. coord. than head coach.
Poles shouldve cleaned house and fire the whole coaching staff.

He got outcoached by Wash HC Dan Quinn and Off Coord. Kingsbury
Jayden Daniels is being developed to be a good quality ALL-Pro QB.

If Flus gets fired in off-season, should this guy be our no.1 target?

I would assume that if Eberflus were to get fired the OC for the Lions would probably be the 1st call. Kingsbury pretty much showed in Arizona and at Texas Tech that he's not a good head coach. He's best suited to be an OC

Tyrique is a talker which is safe to say. For example he baited Nico Collins into going off on him earlier in the season so those things go both ways. But the main thing is that he needs to step his play up if he wants to talk a bunch of shit cause if you can't back it up shut the fuck up

Eberflus was just on Kap & JHood morning show and they asked him why he didn't take a timeout - we had all 3 - before the last HM play to get the the guys adjusted and focused (which would have likely gotten Stevenson in place too).

Eberflus said "we didn't need a TO guys, we were all set..." .. "we just need to execute that last play as practiced (yadda yadda)"

Dude is TRIPPIN.

Eberflus saying that 15 yards didn't matter :smh:


Man, I get to see this shit all day.

The issue is when we fuck up....we fuck up in a embarrassing fashion

From that fumble to the back up center to the hail mary


This is the shyt that pisses me off about flaky flus-pus
Out of all the Super Bowl winning caliber head coaches,
not one of them has ever said these sort of comments as a head coach.

FLus said we didnt need a timout because we were all set,
but on that last play #29 Stevenson wasnt set because he was too
busy taunting and mocking the WASH crowd.
:thefinger:
Flus litmus test / eye test on quality practices is absurd. BY the gameplay
you can tell the BEARS dont have quality practices.
FUKK HIM and his ugly bitch wife.
:lol:

Congratulations DC Commanders fans you have a
good decent head coach, off. coord. and franchise ALL-Pro QB

Yeah, I don’t even remember players being this open about coaching issues during the Nagy or Trestman years (un excluding John Fox because he seemed to have guys respect as a coach who’d been to two Super Bowls and who wasn’t responsible for drafting Trubisky at 2).

This is a reflection on Eberflus, but it’s also a reflection on Poles, who had the chance to clean house and start fresh with Williams and a new coaching staff, and instead ran it back with a guy who’s issues with playcalling were noted in his first two years. And I like Poles, but he needs to be careful that his ass is not on the hot seat too.

We'll be ight. We just won't do anything great until and unless these coaches do the average things well.

And if they don't, then they'll get everyone fired and we'll get coaches who can do the job.

It is what it is. We have the talent to do damage. But these coaches gotta be able to mold and harness it with the right gameplans AND protecting dudes from themselves..

I told yall a long time ago it wasn't Justin Fields it's that stupid coach, Caleb is gonna get killed because he's not as big or tough as Justin.
I like Justin Fields but he hasn't been setting the world on fire with the Steelers.

As for Eberflus he still hasn't gotten out of the habit of playing not to lose in these situations rather than playing to win and being somewhat aggressive.

Should guys who just re-upped with the Bears like D.J Moore, if they are among the complainers, SHUT THE FUCK UP because their ho-ass didn't have to re-sign. Or were they looking bigger picture, "I like this place and wanna be here for awhile, Flus or no FLus?"

During the Trestman era they were questioning him. That's how bad this is, they better make the playoffs or he's done.

Yeah Poles loyalty to Eberflus could get him fired. He let's his emotions get in the way of making tough decisions. He does it with players, Velus should have been cut a long time ago. The one thing he has going for him is he didn't extend Eberflus contract.

What exactly did you see from him in Pittsburgh that impressed you?

They played more conservative football that cut down on his turnovers, but he still missed open receivers, because of his hesitancy to throw the ball. Which is why Russ is the starting QB.

Guys go to certain places to play for a specific coach in college. The NFL is big business and guys are going to go where they are going to get paid and if it's in a city that they and their family enjoys even better.

As for players shutting the fuck up we as fans complain without knowing the ins, outs or specifics and players get to do the same especially considering that they do know those things.

Richard Sherman had every right to say something when the coach decided to pass the ball on the goalline instead of giving it to Marshawn. And Bear's players like DJ have every right to question giving the ball to the backup center at the goalline instead of giving it to your 220lb RB, your RB making 8 mil or throwing it up for your 6'3 WR. Receiving a check doesn't change that!!

Right now it's the sHITS principle.

Doesn't mean much when the HC capes for certain dudes that act like children on the field, does it?

Man, a rookie Caleb was trying to get the DB up on McLaurin for that 13 yarder. :smh:

You can't hold the players accountable when you don't admit your mistakes and hold yourself accountable.

You are correct I meant to say during the Fox era you didn’t have this kind of questioning of the coaching staff, and during the Trestman and Nagy eras you did.

... and I feel like this was a bit of a watershed moment in that regard. I watch ALL the interviews and can't recall a time when Flus has been this stubborn as far as possibly second guessing his own strategy when it doesn't work.

Bruh, it's not even just one thing either:

- could've played your guys further up on the second to last play
- could've used one of your 3 timeouts to get in the exact formation you wanted to be in
- tripled down on saying that we didn't need a T.O. because "everyone was in place"
- .... which makes you look stupid at best (because that means you must have not been paying attention to or seen Stevenson)
- ....or is crazy at worst (because you saw him and thought we were still good to go)

You can see Flus on the sidelines on the 2nd to last play frantically giving his DBs direction on the sideline next to Caleb too. He was almost on the field and Caleb pulls him back. So if you have 3 timeouts and you clearly need to get your guys organized, USE ONE!

Like I said before I think they try to be too smart sometimes and screw themselves and the team. I honesty think he didn't want to use a TO because he didn't want to give the Commanders time to get organized. But WE needed it!

I bet you $10 he handles it completely differently if this situation comes up again.

The players lose credibility. They apparently love Flus's mostly incompetent ass.

This was after a bye week :smh:

So we practice running Kramer, but not how to handle a hail mary?

I'm interested in how they play this week, Arizona isn't a cake walk

..they said they practice that every week. The most obvious issue (and JJ highlights it) was that the D needed a chance to calm down and double-check their assignments. But Flus and the coaches didn't think it was wise to take a timeout to do that.
