So the fact they don't care and aren't playing hard they are intentionally not trying to win?

 

 

They don't care. There's a difference between intentionally trying to lose for draft position (tanking) and being so awful your entire team stops trying to win.

Haven't seen bad clock management like that since, uh (checks notes....) Reich? Rhule?

I was going to say the Dak Prescott scramble a few years ago in the playoffs that ran out the clock before getting one final shot at the end zone.

But what happened at the end of the Bears game is a new level of incompetence. Made even worse in that the Bears used two timeouts on that final drive after the prior play was an incomplete pass. That and it sounds like Eberflus tried putting some of the blame on Caleb only for Caleb to indicate he doesn't have the capability to call timeouts and that he waited 20 seconds for him to get that playcall. 

My goodness, the game ended when they still had a timeout in their pocket. I can't recall a similar situation like that ever happening.

I'd be willing to wager most if not all of us have, at some point, found ourselves in a situation where we just stopped giving a sh-t.

This is especially true when you realize the people leading your particular group or organization are incompetent.

Yeah Caleb is generally way too slow to process really anything. Pre snap, in play, clock situations...Who knows if they actually practice 2 minute/end of game drills enough to drill it into these guys heads. Eberflus is a defensive coach and Thomas Brown is more of a position coach than an OC as we found out first hand lol. 

😂 Yeah he needed a higher S2 score.

      Lol. The Texans are literally one of Bryce's six career NFL wins. WTF are you talking about?

      Yeah, I mean it is a statistical fact and also part of literally a player evaluation. Winston has literally lost dozens of games in his NFL career due to crippling TO's. It's just who he is. Look, it's fun when those insane throws work and he is leading you back from some crazy deficit. But those success are rare. It's why his career GWD count is so low. He's fun but he is fundamentally built to lose games.  If you are talking about a backup QB, you are literally already losing in the first place. That's how you see a backup QB and that's overwhelmingly what they tend to do. Rookie QB's almost always benefit from veteran QB's. Same as literally any other position in the NFL. Why do you think that you so often hear that from the playera themselves? As for Bryce NEEDING one, no he sure as poo shouldn't this late in the game. But he also shouldn't have needed this fuging long to get his fuging footwork straightened out either. Yet here we are.

      Comfortability is the primary reason. They don't want to hurt Bryce's confidence. But I say if his confidence is that fragile that healthy competition which makes everyone better is enough for them to keep making Andy Dalton rich then Bryce was never going to be the guy anyway. Give me the QB who sees the competition amongst his peers and uses it to take it to the next level. Instead we get the guy who comes out looking like a deer in the headlights against the Texans after we've done everything possible to appease him. Definition of complacency.
