One more Bears thing: 59 offensive points. No defensive or ST touchdowns. That's rare for #DaBears. It's the first time since week 11 1957 when the Chicago Bears beat the Baltimore Colts 57-0 without a special teams or defensive touchdown.

If the score holds, it's a Bearigami. And only the second 52-37 game in NFL history (Rams-Giants in 1948).

Fun fact: the 1926 & 1927 New York Yankees football team had TWO players nicknamed Iceman: Red Grange and Eddie Tryon, who played pro just two years. In '26, he led the AFL in scoring, and was near the top in '27 in the NFL. @berckes.bsky.social @wiltfongjr.bsky.social @samhouseholder.bsky.social

A lot of fun was had now and there's a lot of promise to deliver on going forward. The Bears for certain have their capital Q Quarterback. WCGSL returns next season. Thank you all so much for hanging out with me and @samhouseholder.bsky.social, and with the rest of the WCG crew. Bear Down, y'all.

At least if you go down blitzing, it’s like “at least your tried something.” If you continue to just let Love sit back and pick you apart and have CBs and LBs flailing desperately at the Packers receivers, well we already know what that looks like. #DaBears

Surely someone is going have the take that the Bears can only score on trick plays. They don't have a functional offense.
