Kyle Long on Bears' predicament: 'Playoffs is a thing of the past'

LAKE FOREST, Ill. -- The reality has sunk in for the Bears.

“Obviously the playoffs is a thing of the past, so you have to play for pride and find out who really cares,” Kyle Long said on ESPN 1000’s “Carmen and Jurko Show” on Monday.

While mathematically alive in the playoff chase, the Bears' loss to Washington drops them to 5-8 overall, leaving them 13th in the NFC with a conference record of 2-7.
