Chicago’s Robbie Gould has been one of the most dependable kickers in the NFL for a long time. But last week, he missed a potential game-winning field goal that led to an overtime loss to the 49ers.

For the second straight week, the Bears lost in large part because Gould missed a critical late attempt.
But the fans in Chicago have grown to love Robbie. So a few fans showed their support for Robbie before this week’s game against Washington, telling him to stay optimistic and look forward... and the Bears lost because of Robbie Gould again:

— Brian Cassella (@briancassella) December 13, 2015 Gould missed a potential game-tying attempt from 50 yards with 1:45 to go, and Chicago lost 24-21. I can think of nothing sadder than making a sign for a kicker, only to be let down by that kicker. Brutal.
