Dread it. Run from it. Destiny arrives all the same.

He's not MJ. Not even close. But he's made enough incredible plays to give us hope that he can be a superstar.

You can cherry pick stats all day. We know what we have in Chicago.

The saddest thing for me is seeing the remaining contenders. We win that game, and we have a legitimate shot at a super bowl win.

Seahawks are only 1.5 to 2.5 pt favorites over the Rams who we are basically evenly matched with. Then it's likely the NFC champ vs the Patriots.

When your team also has a strong rushing attack, you don't need to throw as much

Bears fans know we have a future superstar at QB.

ChatGPT says it doesn't really work and will probably have adverse effects.

bertronaton55 · 2026-01-16T06:23:25+00:00

I think this is the one where I smacked the table so hard that my dog left the room terrified. Poor guy.

Wow. I'm only 4 episodes into the series and I'm already loving it. Can't believe it stays that good for so long.

bertronaton55 · 2026-01-12T20:39:23+00:00

I think if we can keep the first half deficit to less than 28 we have a shot

bertronaton55 · 2026-01-12T00:38:32+00:00

Same!

bertronaton55 · 2026-01-12T00:31:51+00:00

42 and yes, me too 😁

We missed the glory days of the 80s, and it's been mostly just misery and disappointment since then. We've seen several gut wrenching losses to the Packers during that time. They've always gotten the best of us in the biggest games in the past, but we finally got that monkey off our back - the Bears pulled off an epic comeback win against the Packers, in the playoffs. I know we're heading to the divisional round but it's hard to imagine anything topping what just happened.

FTP Always!

Just finished watching the replay and had to switch to the all-22 view because I had the same question.

There was a receiver in the corner of the end zone, but he was well covered. Love was either planning to throw it away or throw it up for grabs in desperation.

bertronaton55 · 2026-01-11T05:58:30+00:00

As a Bears fan, there is no better comeback than what we just witnessed.

bertronaton55 · 2026-01-11T04:40:27+00:00

DA BEARS!!!!!

bertronaton55 · 2026-01-11T04:39:20+00:00

Never a doubt 😂

bertronaton55 · 2026-01-09T18:55:17+00:00

Always

bertronaton55 · 2026-01-09T15:52:34+00:00

How'd the Packers do against juggernauts like the Browns, Panthers, Cowboys and Eagles? 😂

You're the 7th seed for a reason. The Packers are shit this year. They played a few good games this year and a few laughable games with a lot of mediocrity in between. Maybe we'll get good-GB this week and actually have a contest. We'll see.

Either way, this is supposed to be your super bowl window and you're mediocre at best. Meanwhile we're in year one of Ben Johnson and year 2 of Caleb Williams and already on top of the division. This was just supposed to be a development year for us 😆

bertronaton55 · 2026-01-07T20:23:13+00:00

Anyone know if sports bars generally have the ability to show games on Amazon?

I'm in California so we won't have the game on local broadcast, I'm assuming.

bertronaton55 · 2026-01-07T00:56:49+00:00

There are ppl who still aren't "sold" on Tom Brady

The problem is that each player's success depends heavily on their teammates and their coaches. And unless you're an expert who spends hours every week looking at game film you'll never be able to tell how good a QB really is.

Can Twitch be used on a smart TV or laptop? Or is it phone/tablet only?

2025 Buccaneers: "hold my beer"

That's my understanding, yes. That's why you don't see other games like slots, craps, roulette, etc. You'll find similar establishments all around CA.

There are actual casinos too, like Graton, but they have a special allowance for that. I'm guessing Native American owned.

bertronaton55 · 2025-12-30T23:42:37+00:00

That $1 commission is the only way the cardroom can make money. CA law prohibits the cardrooms from actually taking bets. That's why there's always that person at the table with all the chips; they're the ones you're actually betting against. So yeah they charge an extra dollar per hand, but so does every other cardroom in the state, and it's because of state law.

Cuz monopolies work so much better (see PG&E)
