Bears Challenge Blocked FG Call, Seek NFL Review
TL;DR
Chicago Bears head coach Matt Eberflus plans to send a blocked field goal play to the NFL for review after a 20-19 loss to the Green Bay Packers. Eberflus believes the Packers made illegal contact with the Bears' long snapper, which should have resulted in a penalty. Despite the potential officiating error, Eberflus emphasized the need for better protection from the Bears' interior line to prevent such blocks. The Bears remain 4-6 after the defeat.
