The Chicago Bears fired head coach Matt Eberflus following an embarrassing Thanksgiving loss to the Detroit Lions that extended a brutal six-game losing streak that was the defining moment of his abysmal three-year tenure.

However the Bears players, especially Pro Bowl cornerback Jaylon Johnson, weren't buying it, according to Russini and Jahns's report. Johnson reportedly was "going off" on Eberflus, and was joined by other Bears players who wanted to know why the coach hadn't used the team's final timeout.
