Bears offensive coordinator Shane Waldron defended his ill-fated decision to hand the ball off to center Doug Kramer on a critical third-and-one play from the Commanders 1-yard line in the fourth quarter Sunday with the Bears trailing 12-7 in an eventual 18-15 loss.
Quarterback Caleb Williams and Kramer misconnected on the handoff and the Commanders recovered the ensuing fumble. But Waldron said he would make the same call if he had it to do over.
“Every play call that doesn’t work out, you go back and look at it and see, ‘Was it the best call in that situation?
