The Chicago Bears lost to the Washington Commanders on Sunday, not only on the final play but also on a Hail Mary, which was just short of the endzone but ended up tipped into the hands of Noah Brown. This was one of the most "what the f*ck" endings in NFL history, as the Bears took a 15-12 lead with 23 seconds left. A Bears fan, Seth Rollins was shocked by Commanders Quarterback Jayden Daniels, who caught the ball midway down the field for a 18-15 win over the Commanders. One of the spectators has captured that on camera.

After the loss, Rollins took to Twitter and shared his disappointment. “I hate football,” he wrote. Soon after his tweet, the official Washington Commanders Twitter account posted a tweet saying, “Thanks for coming,” with Rollins pass in the trash.
In a thrilling game in D.C., Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels and Bears star Caleb Williams engaged in a chess match, keeping the score low through three quarters. However, both quarterbacks saved their best for last. The Bears took control with a heart-pounding 10-play, 62-yard drive, culminating in a touchdown with just 25 seconds left.

The Bears' sideline erupted, and it appeared that Williams had secured a dramatic road victory, but Daniels was not done yet. Washington quarterback Darrell Green was retired by the Washington Redskins after a 52-yard Hail Mary touchdown. Despite facing clock pressure, Green managed to extend the clock and score an 18-15 win, with receiver Noah Brown securing the ball. The game was filled with excitement as the crowd erupted in disbelief.
