horsefeathers Caleb.  Absolutely essential to us getting there.  Terrible decision at the worst time.  I realize DJ had a lot to do with it but damn
 

future is bright tho

Just can’t fart the game away by a pick. Great season and blew our expectations, but three picks in a Divisional Championship and some horrendous play calls by Ben were the difference makers.

Man, I dont know why Caleb made that throw... all we have to do is control the ball and kick a fg. I'm sure he could have scrambled 

He could have run for 10-15 yards

DJ had a step and then just gave up on the play. Throw is right if he keeps going.

Was that throw really necessary for where the Bears were in down and distance and in OT? No. Yes DJ gave up but take what the defense gives you.

DJ finishes his route, the Bears have like a 30-35 yard FG to go to the NFC championship game.

What a helluva season. Jesus.

You got a better defensive effort than expected but drops, poor execution on short yardage, and DJ dogging a route was the difference.

get some pass rushers and get em next year

This wins for worst take of the day, and you have a HOF career going for the takes.

Run game never able to get going, especially short yardage. Going for it on 4th was the right call every time.

Two of the picks were just plain on the receiver giving up on the route.

I'm assuming DJ was sub concussed if not fully concussed. it's so weird he'll make some of the toughest tough guy plays you'll see and then loaf it on other plays in the same game.

Difficult to understand on a few levels.  Many mistakes in this game.  Great year, but now it’s time to take the next step.  Fewer drops.  Better short yardage decisions and execution.  Better defense overall.

It’s win or go home. Go!

Not disappointed at all, sure some things could have been better, maybe, not so many drops by the receivers.  Nevertheless, it's only the beginning, there's going to be plenty of playoff games in the Bears future.

Let’s just get rid of the loaf
