NFC North Rundown, Week 5: A double-doink helps instead of hurts a division team

It feels like just yesterday, but it was way back in January 2019 that the Double Doink happened. Cody Parkey attempted a field goal at the end of regulation in the NFC Wild Card game between the Chicago Bears and Philadelphia Eagles, hoping to send the Bears on to the Divisional Playoffs.

As you no doubt remember, an Eagles lineman got a tiny piece of the football on its way over the line and the ball hit the upright, then the crossbar, and bounced out. It was a brutal way to lose a game, and the Bears went home while Philadelphia moved on to play the New Orleans Saints after holding on for a 16-15 victory.
