That is seriously the sort of call that takes a good game and just completely ruins it.


I'm genuinely offended on behalf of Bears fans. I was rooting for the Vikings this game and I'm still loving livid.

Good holding call. You can't do that.

And John Fox is an idiot. Should have let the Vikings score so they get the ball back with a chance to tie.

hard to be too upset, bears showed flashes and trubisky looked like he could be real good in a year

really bad officiating though

Even if that defensive lineman would have actually been holding that tight end it would have not affected the play in any way whatsoever. gently caress these refs.

Yep...keep the games close so I am entertained but find a way to lose them so we get a higher draft pick

Wasn't John Fox only supposed to be the Bears coach for like 2 years and then everyone would move on because it'd be time to actually start the rebuilding process?

Watching for lateral ending, but my guess is Fox will just have the players take a knee

lol there's a zero chance the bears could lead a 1 minute drill to a TD. Hoping they fumbled the FG snap was by far the best bet.

What was the best part for you, the fact that he reduced the Alien in an Alien movie to an inconvenient sideshow? The obvious good twin bad/twin gambit? The completely idiotic acts of every single human cast member? Or maybe it's that if it weren't for Fassbender's screen presence that movie would be SciFi grade shlock?

It was a chip shot FG from the INT. Let them score right away......and the Bears have nearly two minutes to drive down the field and score.

Forbath has missed 2 extra points and an <40 yard field goal on the year, it's a sort of defensible plan to make him beat you.

But more importantly in no universe does John Fox of all coaches approach that situation with a 'let them score' point of view.

And once TEAMS know you will let them score then the whole strategy is over. i guess you could make it work once though

Did you like the Alien vs. Predator movies? Plenty of alien screen time in those. And I didn't even hate Requiem.....but I realize that it wasn't a good movie.

I'll admit that the Neomorph stuff wasn't great.....but it wasn't that bad. The good twin/bad twin stuff was by far the worst part. Crazy that Fassbender was the worst part of the movie after being the highlight of Prometheus.

It's not a let them score point of view, they had to make them go 3 and out and kick the fg and that penalty killed them

Sure.....for some reason Forbath has trouble with extra points......but he has an 86.5% conversion rate on field goals in his NFL career. And in a Vikings uniform, Forbath was 21 for 22 coming into this game.....with his one miss coming last week against the Lions. That's over 95% conversion rate.
