The lament seared through the ESPN broadcast Monday night. As Chicago Bears coach Matt Nagy considered challenging a call in the second half of his team's 17-9 loss to the Minnesota Vikings, one fan at Soldier Field spoke for many.
"After further review," the fan could be heard yelling, "we suck!"
It was that kind of night for the Bears, who wasted a relatively strong defensive performance in a mistake-filled defeat at the hands of their NFC North rival. In the process, the Bears became the fifth NFL team to be eliminated from playoff contention, a long assumed outcome that will shift the focus squarely on the future of general manager Ryan Pace and coach Matt Nagy.
