We Had It. We Dropped It. Season on the Brink After Bears OT Loss

We just lived through one of the most impossible losses I can remember.With Jordan Love knocked out on a helmet to helmet hit, Josh Jacobs clearly not right, and the offense forced to lean on Malik Willis in brutal wind, we still had the Bears dead in the water. Our defense played its heart out, we built a 10 point lead late, and at one point we had a 99.5% chance to win.And then we found every possible way to lose.We break down the entire game drive by drive: the early conservative first downs, the Bears failed gadget play gift, the missed red zone chances, the Jacobs goal line fumble, the dropped interceptions, the penalties that kept drives alive, and the moment everything collapsed: the dropped onside kick, the miscommunication TD, and the overtime snap drop that set up the dagger.It felt exactly like 2014 in Seattle: lose the onside kick, give up the late TD, go to OT, and then surrender the bomb to end it.Now the situation is brutal. We’re battered everywhere: QB, OL, RB, safety, receiver — and the path to the playoffs likely goes through the Ravens and Vikings. We also walk through the scoreboard chaos and the one scenario that could give us hope if other teams start resting starters.We should’ve won this game five different times. We didn’t. Now we have to survive what’s next.
