Bears notes: Forte fails at goal line
CHICAGO – Bears running back Matt Forte had a pair of golden opportunities to prove he could punch the ball across the goal line Sunday against the Green Bay Packers.
Instead, Forte fell flat with back-to-back duds.
Many factors played a role in the Bears’ 21-13 loss to the Packers, but Forte’s failures at the goal line deserved a leading credit. In the third quarter with the Bears trailing, 21-7, Forte was stuffed on the 1-yard line on back-to-back possessions on second and third down.
