Yo! Welcome in to the House of L podcast. I'm Lauren Tombs. You know how we do after

Bears games. We talked to you about what it is that you saw. And what you saw was about what you

thought you would see. Even though the first half of the game made it feel different. It was

I really hate when I'm writing about stuff like this, but it's exactly what I was talking about.

How they were going to be something that was going to allow people to believe. And then your hopes

and dreams are going to get crushed. And it happened yet again. It's... Let me... Okay. I was talking

about this. I did a video like right after the game and I don't think that it can be said enough.

The play that changed this game. To me, in the way that I would even look at it as if trying to be

you outdid that. They beat you worse than what people expected you to lose by.

It's dressed up because it looks like there was some progress with some of the younger players.

I'll get to that in a second, but I want to talk about this fake that this not going for it on

fourth and inches. It bothers me so much because to me, it is a tail, tail sign. It is emblematic

of what Matt Nege has been as a coach. It's relying on the cosmetic aspect of it.

The idea of it won't look as bad. Instead of you have an opportunity to make it a game

and you decide that you just want to lose well instead of trying to win. And it's really

frustrating. It's really frustrating that that's the approach, the approach to going after these
