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.

    • Seriously?  When Dalton started against the Raiders and put up 300 yards and 3 TDs, this board was collectively BUZZING with excitement.  Even a lot of people who get accused of being Bryce "stans" (i.e. people who were simply willing to be a bit more patient with him) were ecstatic at seeing a functional offense for once and were ready to close the book on Bryce.  Who the hell was making excuses and saying it was against a bad defense?  The problem with you guys is you'll take a single standalone comment made by the biggest most radical Bryce fan in the galaxy and then generalize it as "Bryce stans said _________" to be sensational rather than engage with the vast majority of people giving more rational and levelheaded pushback.  I don't even think there are more than one or two people who have a positive emotional attachment to Bryce as an individual...most of the people you call "stans", are people who just generally adopt a more optimistic mindset and therefore are more defensive of our players and staff and will often give them the benefit of the doubt and root for their success (because that's in the team's best interest).  I mean I'm one of those people...and I guarantee you the minute Bryce gets cut (hypothetically), I will have zero care for his career at that point. It's also ironic that you so freely call people Bryce stans but you pearl-clutch at the notion that he has haters.  It's two sides of the same coin, dawg.  If we're to use your standards, then the bar for being considered a "stan" is subterranean, and the bar for being considered a "hater" is apparently somewhere approaching deep space.  If we were to put your post history up against the Final Boss of all Bryce stans (hell, the 10 biggest Bryce stans in Huddle history), your negative posts would outnumber their positive posts like easily 20:1.  So yeah I have no clue what the criteria is at this point.  Speaking of your post history...anyone can feel free to pop in there to see all the wonderful genuine praise you've been giving Bryce.  I mean they don't even need to look at your post history...you showed an example of what your praise looks like in your post I'm quoting now.  Let's paraphrase: he technically improved.....because he was just that awful early in the year, it's basically impossible not to improve.  And yeah maybe he threw some dimes....IT'S ABOUT TIME!  TOOK LONG ENOUGH!!  You see how even your praise needs to be couched in jabs?  It's like a compliment sandwich that gets jammed in between two slices of insults.
    • My man really just dropped the bag. Couldn't cut the crap for 6 months so you could secure generational wealth for you and your family. What a shame. 
    • This should be in the NFL rule book.
