Fact check: Each week of the 2024 NFL season, Coach Enerflus seem d to take it as a personal challenge to top his own previous incompetence.

1. Summary of the results

The statement about Coach Eberflus's (misspelled as "Enerflus" in the original statement) performance is largely supported by multiple sources. He was fired on November 29, 2024, becoming the first head coach in Bears franchise history to be fired mid-season ^[1]. His overall record was 14-32, with a .304 winning percentage ^[2], and he went 2-13 in NFC North games ^[3].

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

The original statement lacks several crucial pieces of context:

• Specific game management issues were documented, including a crucial timeout decision against the Detroit Lions that led to a 23-20 loss ^[4]
• His performance in close games was particularly problematic, with a 5-19 record in one-score games ^[2]
• There were multiple documented instances of poor game management, including questionable decisions in a loss to the Green Bay Packers ^[5]
• The Bears experienced a 10-game losing streak under his leadership ^[1]

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

The statement contains several issues:

• The spelling "Enerflus" is incorrect - the coach's name is Eberflus ^[6]
• While the statement suggests a weekly progression of incompetence, the sources provide specific documented instances rather than a weekly escalation
• The emotional tone of "personal challenge to top his own previous incompetence" isn't supported by the data, though his performance metrics were objectively poor
• The statement might benefit those seeking to justify the historic mid-season firing, including Bears management and potential replacement candidates

The facts support the general sentiment about poor performance, but the hyperbolic language in the original statement isn't necessary given the stark reality of his coaching record.
