Chicago Bears: Five stages of grieving devastating playoff loss to Eagles

What you’re feeling is totally normal. After the gut-wrenching Chicago Bears loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, what you’re going through is one of the five stages of grief. It’s like a break-up or any other kind of loss.

The Chicago Bears took fans on a thrilling 12-4 ride this season and seemed poised to make a deep playoff run. Hosting the lowest seed to make the playoffs, an Eagles team that only made it into the postseason by virtue of the Bears win over the Minnesota Vikings last week, the Bears had high expectations.

The Bears started off slowly against the Eagles, but thanks to the heroics of Mitch Trubisky, the Bears were staked to a fourth-quarter lead.
