Matt Eberflus: Bears filing complaint with NFL that Packers committed penalty on game-ending FG block

The Chicago Bears lost in heartbreaking fashion on Sunday as the Green Bay Packers blocked an attempt at a game-winning field goal as time expired at Soldier Field.

On Monday, head coach Matt Eberflus told reporters that the Bears believe the Packers committed a penalty on the block and are filing a complaint with the NFL. Eberflus also defended his decision to attempt the kick from 46 yards rather than use remaining time on the game clock to try to make it a shorter attempt.

The Bears took possession of the ball on Sunday at their own 30-yard line with 2:59 remaining in regulation while trailing the Packers, 20-19.
