Bears First in Sports History to Accumulate Victories, in Spite of Winning

The Chicago Bears won a total of 3 playoff games between the 1985 and 2006 seasons (21 years), out of a total of 11 games. They did not appear in the playoffs from 1995 until 2001, recording only winning season in that span. After securing home field advantage throughout the NFC playoffs in 2006, they were assured of their third "final 8" appearance in 6 years. A feat only 5 other teams can currently lay claim to (Philly-5, St. Louis- 3, Pitt-4, NE-5, and Indy-4). The Bears have celebrated one Super Bowl victory (many NFL championships, but just the one SB in '85). Not much to be proud of unless you consider that there are 6 teams in the NFL who have never been to a Super Bowl at all, and 15 total that have never won a Super Bowl in its 40 year history.

With that kind of recent history, the Bears fans should be proud of the 2006 team for what they have accomplished to this point. Remember just 4 years ago, when the team didn't even have a home game because of the Soldier Field renovation, started an NFL record 49 different players because of injuries, and won only 4 games despite coming of a 13-3 season the year before and starting 2-0? Those were rough times, but we've recovered. Now they are one win away from their 2nd Super Bowl appearance ever. However, national pundits and even several of our own kind, have led us to believe this Bears team is not worthy of the slightest praise. Consider the following, if you will, that the Bears are:

Week 1: (vs. Green Bay, 26-0) the worst team to ever shutout Brett Favre's Packers at Lambeau Field

Week 2: (vs. Detroit, 34-7) the worst to ever hold their first 2 opponents to 7 points.

Week 3: (vs. Minnesota, 19-16) the worst team to ever win their first 3 games, 2 of them on the road. Also the worst team to ever win a game against a team wearing purple.

Week 4: (vs. Seattle, 37-6) the worst team to ever win a game in which the opponent's best player was inactive. They are also the worst team to ever win a prime time game against a fellow undefeated, who happens to be the defending conference champs. And the worst team to ever win a game in which they had to win to be considered "for real". Which also makes them the worst team to ever be labeled as "for real".

Week 5: (vs. Buffalo, 41-7) the worst team to ever beat the crap out of a former coach. They are also the worst team to ever dominate an opponent into submission before the halftime bell sounded. Worst team to ever be 5-0. Rex Grossman also became the worst player to ever win player of the month honors.

Week 6: (vs. Arizona, 24-23) the worst team to ever win a game, period. The worst team to ever use special teams and defense to win. The worst team to ever win a Monday Night road game. The worst team to ever win by one point. The worst 6-0 team to ever be considered in the same class as a 1-5 team by the opposing coach. And finally, the worst team to ever be drug through the mud by an opposing coach, after beating that team on their home turf.

Week 7: (Bye) the worst team to ever be on bye week.

Week 8: (vs. San Francisco, 41-10) the worst team to ever beat the hell out of the 49ers. The worst team to ever win by simply stepping onto the field. The worst team to ever crush an inferior opponent into oblivion.

Week 9: (vs. Miami, 13-31) the worst team to ever wait until Novemebr to get their first loss. The worst team to ever "show their true colors" in a loss. The worst team to ever need 7 wins to balance one loss.

Week 10: (vs. Giants, 38-20) the worst team to ever win by dominating when it counted. The worst team to ever rebound from a loss.

Week 11: (vs. Jets, 10-0) the worst team to ever win 2 straight games at the Meadowlands. The worst defense to ever record a shutout on the road.

Week 12: (vs. Patriots, 13-17) the worst team ever told their season was over at 9-2. The worst team to ever play 3 straight road games against playoff bound teams on the East Coast and win only 2.

Week 13: (vs. Vikings, 23-13) the worst team to ever sweep a division opponent. Also the worst team to ever run up and down the field against the best run defense in the league..

Week 14: (vs. Rams, 41-27) the worst team to ever trail at halftime and win by 2 touchdowns. The worst team to ever win 4 prime time games in one season.

Week 15: (vs. Bucanneers, 34-31) the worst team to ever win in overtime. Also the worst team to secure home field advantage.

Week 16: (vs. Lions, 26-21) the worst team to ever accumulate 13 victories. Also the worst team ever with 6 Pro Bowl selections

Week 17: (vs. Packers, 23-7) the worst team ever to not lose their 3rd game of the season until after Christmas. The worst team to ever go 6-2 at home, 7-1 on the road, and 5-1 in their division 2 straight years.

Week 18: The worst team to ever relax at home while inferior opponents earn the right to play them. Oh yeah, the worst team to ever have inferior competetion.

Week 19: (vs. Seattle, 27-24) the worst team to ever win a playoff game.

At this point, some other possibilites still exist;

Week 20: (vs. New Orleans) the worst team to ever go to the Super Bowl

Week 21: worst team to ever win a Super Bowl with the worst QB to ever win a SB under the worst coach to ever win a SB in the worst year in NFL history.

Am I predicting the Bears to win another game? No. Its not about predictions. Its about respect. "The Bears played the easiest schedule". Yep. Just think, if the Bears had finished 0-16, their opponent's cumulative record would look really good. There are 28 other teams in the NFL that are going to be eating pocorn this weekend, wishing they were as bad as

the Bears. Eventually, the Bears may lose and all of the morons who think the Bears were the worst playoff team ever, and now the worst final four team ever will look as if they called it right. Sort of like Russian Roulette. You keep firing the gun, eventually a bullet will come out................

What time did the bears game start and end today?

i suspect my husband is lying .....he was supposedly at the bar watching the game....but i need to know the exact end time of the bears game today and know if he's lying to me again or not.

Wow, he's REALLY lying, the Bears didn't even HAVE a game today.

j/k... their game started at 4:15 EST....probably went until close to 7:30 or so (EST). The game was in Oakland.

It’s our fault the beautiful game now looks ugly
My personal experience of sport consists only of “games” at school — specifically lacrosse, an astonishingly vicious game that in America and Canada is played by beefy men wearing helmets and shoulder pads.
