Fox Screencap
Gotta feel for Chicago Bears fans.
At the end of tonight’s Bears-Eagles wildcard playoff game it seemed like the Bears had the game in the bag after driving up the field down one point and within field goal range.
Unfortunately Bears kicker Cody Parkey missed the field goal in one of the worst way possible when he hit the crossbar with 5 seconds left on the clock.

Cody Parkey was boo’d (loudly) as he ran off the field. His $3.5M salary next season is fully guaranteed. pic.twitter.com/kxm67I8MZX

Cody Parkey missed a playoff game-winning kick…
He’s probably on the verge of tears and is kicking himself in the head..
Let’s give the kid some respect and time to grieve…
NBC: PLAY EVERY KICK HE’S MISSED THIS YEAR NOW SO HIS FAMILY AND FRIEND CAN SEE IT TOO!!!!!
Nice…
