Yes, I actually turned the game off in disgust the drive before the Edge strip for a TD.

I didn't find out the Bears won until I got in my car this morning and turned on Fox sports......

SHAME.

You're better off.

I have never found a win to be less satisfying than this. I'm happy for the Bears, but Arizona deserved better than to lose this and having those nimrods Theisman and Kornheiser announcing was all the more insulting.

Leinhart played well, the defense did its job, and neither got their just desserts.

I'm glad to see the Bears 6-0, but this just sucks for the Cards. So much so that I can't even enjoy the victory.

Blasphemer!Turn in your Bears Fan Card immediately.

If Grid says it I feel compelled to do it. He's kinda like the 'Don' of Bears fans.

Or at the very least, make fun of every other team in the NFL as if you've won something in the last 20 years.

Hey don't worry about it. I did just about the same thing. After the int with just under 6mins to go (probably when you turned it off), I said "game over", and prepared to leave to go get my daughter. I stuck around for "just one more play", and you know what Urlacher did. My wife took a trip to the bathroom and missed the punt return. You can't take anything for granted in this game.

Normal, smash-mouth football (12 play, 80yd drives, etc) is what, 99% of the game? Under those circumstances, Chicago wasn't going to win the game. It took dipping into that final 1% (which probably equated to 25% or more in this game) to pull off the win. And they did it twice (strip-six and punt return)! We'll probably never see that happen again.

Personally, I wouldn't have turned it off or left the stadium, because I've seen enough blown games to know that it truly isn't over until 0:00 shows on the clock. However, I saw nothing that would have indicated a comeback was in the works. The nails were in the coffin (at 6mins to go), and I was just waiting for it to be lowered into the ground.

Don't fret about giving up on your team, but do take this as a lesson to always watch a game from kickoff to 0:00.
