Then they scored a touchdown a couple minutes later, but they tried to go for the two-point conversion and failed to make the score 15-10 Bears lead. The Eagles got the ball back and marched down the field and scored with 56 seconds remaining in the game. Now the score of the game was 16-15 Eagles lead. The Bears had one more shot to make it to the next round, they marched down the field and got to attempt a 43-yard field goal.
