Just beat the Bears. Anything bigger than the division is probably not realistic this season but please win this game. This one-score differential has me pulling out what's left of my hair. One fluke play from a nauseating week of Bears love.
I know you didn't mean it toward McManus but he has had a rough go. His stats are bad due to playing hurt, blocked kicks, and that one comical attempt that was never going in. He's a good kicker.
I'm aware. You aren't kicking a FG there anyway. Just run a normal rushing play that has a chance to break 3+ yards, or throw a pass that they won't expect. Sneak on 4th down.
Not blaming any of this game on MLF, but I hate the QB sneak call. The benefit of having a first down inside the 5 is opening up your playbook. The sneak takes away the nice advantage you have.
