I said it last week against Philly, and it’s true again with Tampa — there is no team luckier than Washington. I’m definitely rooting for Detroit to stomp on their throats next week.

I think what annoys me so much watching Daniels is he literally being schemed to perfection. Kings bury is taking a mid tier QB and creating a situation where it very easy to succeed. Wide open targets alllll game. It’s unreal. A play breaks down, oh here’s Mclaurin sitting there. Quick throw, wide open receiver. Brown sitting by himself in the end zone, TD. Not to mention the offensive holds which are ignored nearly half the plays. He is already getting Mahomes treatment.

The classic Bears response is to over correct. “We were criticized for not expanding the search when selecting a HC. So here’s 17 names. No one can say we didn’t try!” I wonder how much the “Tomlin to Bears” rumors will start heating up now. He should be in the same hot seat as McCarthy

Wow you weren’t kidding. There’s maybe 5-6 wins

This has to be Warren’s idea. Ask all the candidates to prepare a PowerPoint presentation for their specific plan. The more graphs, the better. Is there any way this won’t be screwed up?

It will be one of those open secrets that we figure is true, but won’t know until Dan Wiederer of the Tribune confirms it after Poles is fired next season. If the cards fall that way, it’s Carroll or bust.

Another coward decision from Brown. Go for the 2 point conversion (the correct call), then after a penalty on GB that brings them to the 1yard line…..kick the extra point. He is playing like Flus, not to lose

LOL. Allen threw that up like he didn’t give a f***

It makes me think the #1 problem is Williams. Yes, the scheming and blocking plays a part - but how can you not create anything with the weapons he has?

So why can’t the Bears have any downfield offense? They can’t even attempt anything beyond the line of scrimmage? This just looks atrocious. It’s the final game of the season. And if you’re a coach on the Bears sideline, you have to know you’re gone. Why not try something aside from quick passes to Moore behind the line of scrimmage?

This is about the worst case scenario. Winning 14-3 and Caleb looks like garbage

Washington is like the bizarro Bears, so damn lucky.

We know how this is going to go down. Atlanta quickly scores a TD to tie, then Daniels gets to march back down the field making wide open throw after wide open throw. Then there will be an obvious penalty ignored to benefit Daniels.

Washington has schemed so many wide open throws for Daniels, it’s ridiculous. Everything looks so easy.

I’m not feeling very good about our chances of hiring Johnson. There’s just too much disfunction here to overcome. The roster (esp. OL) needs a complete overhaul. And the guy assisting Johnson with that task is the GM who has proven he cannot do anything but botch nearly every roster and personnel decision. Would any of us feel comfortable working with Poles? Especially knowing he’s a lame duck GM? I understand there’s the whole, storied franchise, “build the team and become a legend” allure, but when you look at it everything on the field - the path to success is easier in Jacksonville. That is true regardless of who the GM will be. Fortunately, we won’t have to wait too long to find out. Whenever Detroit season ends, I can’t imagine the decision for Johnson will be dragged out very long.

What is this s%*#? How can this be acceptable for a NFL team?

It was, but Williams also looked clueless. Are we creating this screen heavy, quick slant heavy, avoiding throws over 10 yards heavy, type of offense because we don’t trust the OL, Williams, or some combination of both?

And Caleb missing easy passes in the middle of the field. Ridiculous. Every QB in the league can make that throw

Absolutely. Missed tackles, broken tackles on the defense. Keenan dropping passes, Odunze giving maybe 50% on a catchable throw, Moore cutting out of bounds one yard short of the 1st down. We’ve seen for awhile what it looks like when a team has given up

His seat is definitely hot. USC has lost momentum as a program recently and a huge amount of players are transferring out. I don’t know if it’s hot enough to throw away 80 million to be rid of him, though

Would Lincoln Riley come along as Carroll’s OC? I really wonder if that’s the sales pitch. You have a lot of parts here that connect with Riley, Carroll and Williams. If I was Carroll, and knew Poles was desperate, I’d throw out the idea of immediate success. “We can save your job and turn this around right away! I’ll rebuild the culture and have a hand in the defense, Riley will work with Williams.” Why would Poles care what happens three years down the line? Or if Riley leaves the following season? The man is trying to survive. Ben Johnson is personally still my number one choice. But I really believe that Carroll has a shot

For Carroll’s camp to leak out this information actually gives me a ton of optimism. He wouldn’t be willing to come out of retirement if he didn’t believe in Caleb and the possibility of quickly turning this mess around. This isn’t just some generic, “Pete Carroll wants to coach in 2025” statement open to every team. At 73 years old, he wouldn’t be here to oversee a rebuild. Depending on what his demands are, I’d be willing to put him right at the top alongside Johnson. Especially since his name carries the respect to have some part in roster construction. I know, I know, the Shane Waldron connection; and he’s a defensive minded coach who would have to find yet another OC for Caleb. But guys…..who are we to turn him down? He is a proven winner who created a winning culture over his 14 seasons. Are we going to be the team that overlooks Harbaugh and Carroll in back to back seasons?

I just can’t watch teams lay down against Washington. Dumb decision after dumb decision. Lucky play after lucky play. 5 turnovers and they still win. Wide open pass by Philly that should have finished the game….dropped. Obvious false start by Washington on the last drive ignored. And one-read Daniels doesn’t impress me the way people have propped him up. I give Kingsbury all the credit though, scheming for his QB - a ton of lob passes to wide open receivers.

I could see it as a 20-17 type of game. It’s cold outside, and as I recall Goff plays much worse in outdoor stadiums.

Hell if they score any first half points and manage more than one third down conversion in the same drive I’ll be happy.
