Before this season, the Chicago Bears had never fired a coach during a season, a fact they were proud of.
They've also never experienced some of the late-game coaching fiascos they've had this season, especially what happened on Thanksgiving with everyone watching.
Eberflus will take a final timeout from the Detroit Lions loss into his next job.

Eberflus met the media Friday morning and was fired shortly after.
