This game was destined to be a uninspiring end to a disappointing season. The results didn’t matter for either team, but worse, the Vikings would be playing their backups, removing the possibility that the Bears could come up with a win to be proud of. The Bears options were to either embarrass themselves, or defeat a ragtag mish-mosh of backups and impress nobody.
I was hoping playing against backups might be recipe to get this Bars offense going
If that worked, the Bears could ask teams to start their backups going forward and have a solid plan for their offensive future.
