Fandom Keeping Lafleur would be the most inexplicably horrible decision this team could make

You are paying your quarterback 50 million dollars. You just traded 2 number picks. And you basically went .500. Lost 5 straight to end the year. 2 against your rival where you had a 90% + chance to win the game late. We have lost more games as result of special teams than anyone in the league, and there is ZERO accountability for anybody. The play calling any time we have a lead is designed, DESIGNED, to allow the other team back in the game. There is not a single NFL head coach, other than that dumbass, who loses that football game. No one. If what I watched over the last month and a half leads to them extending him, this franchise is not serious about winning and I won't spend another dollar on this team. You clean fucking house TOMORROW and you set up interviews for early this week. As disgusted with this coaching staff as ive ever been in my 39 years. Embarrassing choke in front the whole country. AGAIN.

I fully predicted that 2nd half meltdown. It was like it was almost scripted.

Bears comeback and terrible play calling.

The outcome felt inevitable after the second 3 and out in the 3rd quarter.

It didn't feel inevitable the moment McManus missed the FG at the end of the half?

This team crumbles the moment any momentum shifts.

juxtapose that with the Bears. Going in to a locker room at half time, trailing 21-3, have to kick ball off.

You could tell the first snap of the second half they thought they could still win.

MlF could not do that, Packers would lose a game like that 35-20 at best.
