The Chicago Bears faced a heartbreaking 23-20 loss to the Detroit Lions on Thanksgiving Day, marking their sixth consecutive defeat. Late-game clock management issues prevented them from capitalizing on a second-half comeback opportunity.

Coach Matt Eberflus defended his decision not to call a timeout in the final moments, despite players expressing disbelief at the lack of urgency. Quarterback Caleb Williams attempted a last-ditch pass that fell short as time expired, leaving the Bears to reflect on another missed chance.
