Analysis: If the Bears were as angry in the locker room right after Thursday's finish as reports suggest, it could affect the road ahead for Thomas Brown.

Brown was named the new Chicago Bears interim head coach after the team announced the firing of Matt Eberflus on Friday. The move came just over two weeks since he was named the team's offensive coordinator, a promotion he received after starting the season as the team's passing game coordinator.

With coach Matt Eberflus fired on Friday, the Chicago Bears entrust his duties with offensive coordinator Thomas Brown, who has been greatly responsible for turning around the season of rookie quarterback Caleb Williams.
