I can’t stand to even think about football anymore until next game.

And don’t ever hand off to an offensive lineman.

I knew it was a bad day when Williams runs the ball and slides a yard short from the first down marker....a yard....

Snagglepuss say why he handed off to a lineman with the game on the line?

Was it because Williams stinks, or was there another reason?

It isn't happening this year.  The division is just too good. 

They will finish with a winning record and might sneak into the playoffs if they are lucky but they aren't going anywhere if they do. This year is about getting Williams up to speed.  Next year they have to fix the O-line and add more pass rush.

Then maybe they can compete with average to above average teams consistently.

That is two losses this year on Hail Mary passes. Didn’t we catch one at the end of a game but on the 1 yard line?

All he had to do was fall forward and he had the first.

A handoff to an OLman on the goal line, and a **** screen pass on 4th and short.

WTF?

And why can’t they run a play with the receivers past the marker instead of behind it?

Hand the football to a running back.  It's worked for the last hundred years and it will work a hundred years from now.

The buffoonery of the bears soars to uncharted heights, astounding in finding new creative ways each generation to f_uckup. Games like this remind me why I was usually drunk watching them.

Like Colin Cowherd says, the Bears organization makes offense look hard

They did not deserve to win this game. The fact that they had the lead for all of 20 seconds is immaterial.

1. Not really impressed with Daniels. Unfortunately he will win the accolades over Williams. SHAME Waldron has turned Williams into a pop-gun QB. As usual, the Bears hired the wrong guy to coach offense....

2. WTF was the game plan by Waldron ? Why is that fool on the plane back to Chicago to formulate another losing game plan ? He calls plays scared. And when you play scared, you lose scared. And what does the Oline coach do during the week ? Fundamentals mean nothing to him it would seem, as the Oline (as mediocre as it is) is playing worse than they should and week after week fal in the most fundamental way. Both have turned Williams into a pop-gun QB by this offensive coaching "staph". They are ruining the kid. Get those two coaches a one-way plane ticket to Bermuda flying over the Bermuda Triangle please....

3. Shame Waldron has no clue how to use personel. Someone please for the love of God tell this bozeo there are 5 legitimate GOOD targets for passes on this team. Everrit is NOT one of them.
The goal line fiasco aside (he did the right thing after AGAIN after trying to prove he's the smartest guy in the room by using Roschon), if we ever see EVERITT running routs instead of KMetsomeone should take a phonebook and beat Shame over the head. Repeatedly....

4. This franchise is cursed. The McCaskey curse. The McCurse. Whatever you call it mediocrity, thy name is "Chicago Bears".....

This was the worst case scenario. We shall see what happens now. Either the team falls in the tank (I don't really see that happening), flails in mediocrity (most likely) or recovers and ascends (not a chance in hell). Roller coaster down.....

That happened in 2018 against New England.  Kevin White caught the hail mary but wasn't able to get it in the endzone.

I was very disgusted with the outcome of the game. OTOH, The losses to division rivals are going to be a lot more ugly. Despite all these superstar WRs we have, we couldnt get the ball to any of them.

Just horrible.
