By Paul Johnson Monday, December 1, 2008 One Foot, 99 Yards, Season Over The Bears proved their true worth last night, a team unable to win a big division game on the road, and a team destined for an 8-8 finish, my worst nightmare. The game was over in the second quarter. Up 7-3 with a first-and-goal at the one-yard line, the Bears had a chance to show that they are legit. I know that the Vikings' defensive line is probably the best in the NFL. But you have four cracks at getting that touchdown. First down, Kyle Orton throws the ball away because Greg Olsen is covered. Fine. Smart play, no problem with that. Second down, Matt Forte gets stuffed. No big deal. You still have another chance. Third down. This is where I lost my mind. Who in the hell is Jason Davis?
