The Bears are going to Bear.
The Bears had at least a chance to make a field goal late in the fourth quarter to tie the showdown with the Seahawks on “Thursday Night Football,” but Caleb Williams threw a game-clinching interception and a 6-0 lead. We used our time incorrectly until we lost 3-3. house.
The ugly loss was the Bears' 12th of the year and 10th in a row, tying an ignominious franchise record.
Fans booed from the field and at one point called for a call. To gain ownership to sell the team.
The comedy of mistakes began with just over a minute left, when Williams jumped out of the pocket to avoid a Seattle rush and completed a 15-yard pass to receiver Roman Odunze for a first down.
But then the Bears lazily lined up for the next play, allowing more than 20 seconds of time to expire.
To make matters worse, after Williams threw a pass wide and the clock stopped at 31 seconds, Chicago had to use a second timeout as the play clock was about to expire on the next play. .
Williams appeared angry on his sideline. Because a timeout was called.
When broadcaster Al Michaels said on the air that fans knew the Bears had problems with clock management in the past, including a disappointing loss to the Lions on Thanksgiving, the crowd began booing.
Williams threw another incomplete pass on third-and-10, but caught a high arcing pass from the Seattle 40 for an easy interception with less than 20 seconds left in the game, sealing the Seahawks' victory. Ta.
The Bears' free fall continued admirably, and the Seahawks managed to keep their playoff hopes alive.
This latest loss comes hours after NFL insider Albert Bouyer confirmed that the Bears are interested in former Seahawks coach Pete Carroll for the vacant head coaching position. Ta.
Carroll is said to be interested in the Bears' job, but he also plans to keep his options open.
“I hear he has told all available teams that he wants to return to coaching in 2025. And furthermore, Carissa… [Thompson]I've heard that the Bears are interested in sitting down and talking with Carroll about Opening Day,” Bleier reported on Prime Video's pregame show.
The Bears will look to come off a losing streak when they face the rival Packers on January 5th.
