I actually think I can barely remember watching the Vikings/Chiefs in 1969. It's hard to believe, but there are probably a lot of people on these boards who weren't around to see the '85 Bears shuffle their way to immortality. A running joke on 80s TV shows for people in comas or time traveling or whatever. "Wanna bet the Packers?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm one of them that is too young, I was born after 85. Became a fan of the Bears at some point late in Wannstedt's tenure. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This still sums it all up for me. Had they not won it all, they would have been a laughing stock because of it, but when they backed it up - especially in the dominant manner in which they did, they just became icons. So great!!!

Its one thing to verbally guarantee a win ala Nammoth . Quite another to record Super Bowl shuffle before the playoffs. They were crazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dafreak Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 The offense did not matter with the 85 Bears, all you wanted to do was watch the defense play. A three and out was great because you knew the D was coming on the field and another chance to watch the greatest defense of all time. It was unreal how good they were.

dll2000 Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 '85 was such a great year. Bears won he SB in greatest season ever. My brothers team won HS football state championship.

The offense was fun to watch at times too though. Sweetness was great of course, and Jim McMahon was a wildman too. I heard somewhere that someone was spying on the Bears practice one time (I think it was in a helicopter), and McMahon got fed up with them and mooned them! Then you had the Fridge running the ball in on goal line situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
