The Chicago Bears had a chance to clinch the NFC North with a win, but they never bothered to show up, as they were blown out by the Philadelphia Eagles.
There are a lot of fans looking for someone to blame. When a team loses like this, there isn’t a single player or coach who doesn’t deserve a big chunk of the blame.
The Bears came out like a team with nothing to play for, and now they need to win in Week 17 just to make the playoffs.
It was a complete failure on offense, defense and special teams. When that happens, the coaches deserve to be blamed as much as anyone.
This, however, isn’t about the coaches. It’s about the players, and I have graded every position group for the Bears.
As always, I used a bell curve to grade. A player with a tough matchup gets a little more leeway than one with an easy matchup. That said, it’s hard to give anyone a favorable grade after a performance like that.
