Bears' Matt Nagy punted away his team's best chance to come back against Packers

Matt Nagy picked the worst possible time to coach not to lose. It might turn out to be his final misstep as the Bears' head coach.

He called for a punt on fourth-and-inches from the Chicago 36 with his team trailing the Packers by 11 points early in the fourth quarter Sunday night. He almost got away with it when Amari Rodgers muffed the punt and Damien Williams recovered at the Packers' 20, but a penalty on Chicago's Kindle Vildor for running out of bounds nullified the turnover.

So Nagy had another chance to go for it, this time from his 32.
