Former Bears great Steve “Mongo” McMichael is battling ALS — also known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease — according to multiple reports this morning, including one from Dan Wiederer of the Chicago Tribune, who said McMichael is said to be “declining quickly.”...

Can properly kicked, as Andy Dalton will not fix a single problem for the Bears
The Chicago Bears are officially the Bad News Bears of the NFL. Their free-agent signing of quarterback Andy Dalton was hardly a solution to this franchise’s ongoing QB dilemma....

Aaron Rodgers is in the middle of a midlife crisis
The end of any season sends every player into a reflective period. Well, except for maybe Gronk. So let’s say it sends every player who can spell “reflective” into a reflective period. Months of work, hours of anticipation, to what ends up being the last game, and the assuredness that it all led to ...

Well, that didn’t take long....

The Bears’ offense should be ashamed for torturing the kids watching on Nickelodeon
I feel sorry for every child who tuned in to that Bears-Saints game Sunday evening. They deserved better than to see Mitch Trubisky and Matt Nagy completely wreck the Bears offense. Those two probably decreased the team’s end-zone “slime probability” by more than 50 percent by themselves....

Jaguars fans brave COVID to root for Bears
It’s gotten so bad in Jacksonville, that it’s good....

Which 2-0 NFL teams were frauds? An investigation revisited

We don’t want you to have to watch the Bears either
Whenever the NFL schedule is released, we Bears fans cringe whenever there’s a national game listed. Not because the Bears’ record over history on Sunday or Monday night is pretty porous, though that’s part of it. And it’s not the slagging we’ll be in for by national analysts. We’re numb to that by ...

Tua's first win, Chargers throw up on themselves, and helmet-punching Bears are the worst 5-3 team ever
It’s hard to believe that we are already halfway through the 2020 NFL season....

Time for Ryan Pace to take the keys away from Matt Nagy
There was a not insignificant period of time, in my tweens and teens, when I wanted to be an astronaut. I obsessively watched “Space Camp” (still a great movie), bought books on aeronautics and aerospace that I didn’t understand, and dreamed of the day I would don an unflattering blue jumpsuit and b...

Monday Night Football now incites open revolt on teams
Monday Night Football hasn’t been A THING in many years. Probably not since NBC took Sunday Night Football and made that the game of the week. The games on Monday night usually suck and are typically between two teams that aren’t all that good, with ESPN’s overwrought and over-sweaty broadcasts maki...

Gale Sayers, the brightest of lights
Five seasons. Sixty-eight games. That’s all it took for Gale Sayers to prove to everyone he was one of the greatest running backs in football history (at the time only Jim Brown would have been argued to be in the same stratosphere). Just five, and those five seasons still hold up today to put Sayer...
