The Chicago Bears thought they were doing the right thing when they promoted Thomas Brown to interim head coach in November. He’d garnered lots of praise from players in the building for his steady, disciplined approach. He managed to rescue Caleb Williams from complete collapse, helping the rookie quarterback play some of his best football over a three-week span. Maybe Brown could have a similar impact on the rest of the team. Alas, it didn’t work out that way.
Chicago only won a single game the rest of the season.
