VIDEO: Eddy Piñeiro Doinked His 1st Field Goal as a Bear and Chicago Fans Didn't Take it Well
By Michael Luciano
Chicago Bears kicker Eddy Piñeiro has been excellent so far this season, making nine of his 10 field goal attempts, and nailing all of his kicks inside of 40 yards. However, Piñeiro brought back some bad memories for Bears fans when he doinked a 33-yard field goal off of the right post against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday, calling to mind Cody Parkey's miss against the Eagles in the playoffs.

Naturally, Bears Twitter was merciless towards Piñeiro, as the horror of that playoff miss is still fresh in their mind.
Twitter reacted exactly as I expected it would after Eddy Piñeiro doinked it. I’m having bad flashbacks. pic.twitter.com/Y4eIFvKd6I

Apparently fixing their kicking woes isn't enough for Piñeiro for escape the wrath of the fanbase after missing just his second kick of the year.
