Am I drunk or did literally everyone just miss the fumble by Ingram, recovered by the Bears? (Mid 2nd quarter)

Yes including all the officials and the always oblivious skip Carey and Chris spielman.
How does that happen? With so many camera angles today. The fact they never revisited the play is ridiculous.
The Bears lost a challenge later.
On the Ingram non-fumble, just guessing because the announcers were so bad, but I think the whistle was blown before the fumble. Which I believe makes the play not reviewable.
Here's referee Carl Cheffers explanation of why the Miller TD was overturned on review:
While this loss is disappointing, I'm sure many Bears fans would have taken 3-5 at the bye considering how tough the early schedule was going to be for them.
The schedule does get a bit easier in the 2nd half of the season.
Second half schedule:
Home games: packers, lions, 49ers, browns
Road games: eagles, lions, bengals, Vikings
Hopefully they should beat the niners and browns, but the rest looks fairly tough to me. I agree with your first half comment, I figured one or two wins in the first half. What hurts about today's game is that no one gave the bears a chance and it turned out to be a winnable game.
Apparently Miller's injury so severe he is undergoing emergency surgery this morning to just save his leg according to reports on AM 670. At 33, his career is probably over.
