Misery Index · Despair
Bears fans souring on C.Williams, the play-calling, and the entire premise of this rebuild after losing to Tyler.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
Down 30-16 with a drive to claw back, C.Williams threw it directly to N.Wiggins at the CHI 18, and any pretense of a comeback evaporated. The two intentional grounding penalties in the second quarter weren't much better, and a T.Huntley-to-C.Kolar touchdown in the fourth ended whatever debate remained. The concern isn't the loss to Baltimore — it's that the quarterback fans were told to build around keeps authoring his own undoing.
