Former Chicago Bears players were beyond frustrated watching their old team stink it up in the playoffs on Sunday.
The Bears lost 21-9 in New Orleans in the NFC Wild Card playoff game. Their defense played undisciplined football. They had a player get ejected. The offense couldn’t move the ball.
Former Bears cornerback Peanut Tillman was frustrated over the offense’s inability to convert on third downs.
0-9 on 3rd down…it’s like watching someone drown in peanut butter #saintsvsbears

So was former Bears DB Jerry Azumah.
0/8 on 3rd down

Then both Tillman and Lance Briggs couldn’t believe when the team jumped offsides on a 4th-down play.
The lack of discipline and concentration on display today is alarming. You're either coaching this stuff, or you're allowing it.

So nobody said “watch the hard count”. #saintsvsbears

Chicago was only an 8-8 team and really did not belong in the playoffs. They sure showed it. About the only thing that went their way was this.
