The Bears Got Brian Daboll Fired ...Middle East

The Chicago Bears have gone from getting their own coach fired to causing other teams to launch theirs in less than a calendar year.

In case you missed it: The New York Giants have sent Brian Daboll packing. This news comes less than 24 hours after the Giants blew a 10-point fourth-quarter lead in their Week 10 loss to the Bears. It was the fourth game this season in which the G-Men have coughed up a double-digit lead. But make no mistake about it: That loss to the Bears was the straw that broke the camel’s back.

Heck, you can pinpoint the exact moment when Brian Daboll lost his job.

The Giants were holding a 17-10 lead against the Bears when Daboll allowed kicker Younghoe Koo to attempt a 19-yard field goal. Koo made the kick to give the Giants a 20-10 lead with 10:19 left remaining in regulation. However, the Bears’ special teams unit was flagged (because of course they were!) for having too many men on the field.

At that point, Brian Daboll could have attempted a 4th-and-goal play from the inside the 1-yard line to go for a touchdown (that would havegiven New York a 24-10 lead). Instead, Daboll chose to take the points. As it turned out, that was a costly decision — and on multiple fronts. The Bears went on to start a comeback before winning by a 24-20 score. And a day later, Daboll was out of a job.

And it’s not as if we’e second-guessing anything here. NFL on FOX broadcaster Greg Olsen second-guessed the decision as it was happening. Plus, the numbers behind the decision were saying to go for it:

If I could hand a game ball to the opposing team’s coach after a Bears win, this would have been the time to do so.

Brian Daboll gets canned, but let’s not forget about the other play that made it happen

Brian Daboll made it easy to point out the singular play that (1) cost his (now former) team a win and (2) led to his firing a day later. But because of the magnitude of that moment, it is easy to forget about the play made by Bears defensive tackle Gervon Dexter Sr. that got the ball rolling.

On 3rd-and-goal from the 2-yard line, Giants quarterback Russell Wilson (who was in for an injured Jaxson Dart) looked like he was headed for paydirt on a scramble up the middle. But then, seemingly out of nowhere, Bears defensive tackle Gervon Dexter Sr. made a touchdown-saving tackle to stop Russ at the 1-yard line. It wasn’t sexy or spectacular. But it was quality fundamental football to stay in your lane and not lose contain. That the play looked like Wilson was playing Red Rover with Dexter made it that much cooler.

Without that moment, who knows how that game ends. Maybe the Giants win? Perhaps Brian Daboll still has a job? The Bears still could have mounted a comeback. But it would’ve been a tougher task facing a 24-10 deficit.
