Robbie Gould's shot at redemption sails wide right in loss to Redskins

CHICAGO – Robbie Gould's shot at redemption sailed wide right.

After spotting the Redskins 14-points thanks to a disastrous 16 minute stretch to open the game, the Bears were in position to extend the game until Gould's field goal attempt missed from 50-yards, handing Washington a 24-21 victory.

This puts an exclamation point on a frustrating stretch for Gould - Chicago's all-time leading scorer - who failed to convert a pair of kicks in last week's crushing loss to San Francisco.

In reality, the Bears dug too deep a hole.

The club should've been humbled following last week, instead, they team came out flat for the second consecutive game.
