Here comes the McVay hate on that last drive and here an unpopular opinion by me.. the Rams are down Puka and Kupp, banged up OL (Havenstein got dinged early) and are backed up due to a bomb by Tory Taylor. The Bears KNOW we have to pass the ball and would've absolutely teed off on Stafford who has been getting rocked all 2nd half already..
SO, what do you do? Try to sneak a run or two for a gain and to get into a manageable 3rd to allow a quick pass or at least try and flip the field and allow the D more chance to stop and play the field position game.. OR, do you have Stafford drop back and get rocked on obvious passes and risk him getting hurt while trying to get a W, and lose him for a few weeks or longer? Essentially guaranteeing a lost season.
It sucks, but it was the right decision by me. Live to see another game.
