The Chicago Bears were on the doorstep of yet another crazy come-from-behind win, but fell short of pulling it off. It's hard to blame the offense too much for how Week 17's game against the San Francisco 49ers played out. The defense, on the other hand... Yeah, it wasn't a great game from Dennis Allen's unit.
The Bears' defense surrendered 42 points to the 49ers, which, let's just cut to the chase here. Allowing 42 points to the opposition will always make it more difficult to win the game. Even with all of that working against them, Chicago had a chance to win the game in the final seconds.
