Luke Getsy is in his second season as Bears offensive coordinator.

It might feel as though it was a month ago, given how quickly the week devolved at Halas Hall, but Bears offensive coordinator Luke Getsy is just four days removed from calling a screen pass at his own 6-yard line that failed spectacularly.

The screen was intercepted by the Bucs’ Shaq Barrett and returned for a game-sealing touchdown. Afterward, Bucs linebacker Lavonte David said they knew it was coming.

Thursday, Getsy expressed regret in the play call — only because it didn’t work.
