OK, I give up. Somebody explain to me what I just watched. Explain to me what I think I saw Sunday and what I wish I could unsee. Tell me if I saw a glimpse of the future, the good kind of future.
The Bears played one of the worst halves in the history of sports that use halves, and they lost a game they could – should? – have won if not for one knuckleheaded decision late in the fourth quarter. Does that make sense? No? Good. Now you’re beginning to understand the disorientation that came with a 29-22 loss to the Vikings.
