That's why we Bears fans are all over another teams "official" thread and "playoff game" threads whining about the fact that they are winning and hosting a conference Championship next week. I suppose we'll have to listen to your whining for the next three weeks if the Bears beat NO next week. Seems to me the Packers have no shortage of tiny, spiteful, WHINY fans today. Nice of you to represent for your team's fandom today.

I think some of you guys are missing a big point as far as the game was concerned today. I am hearing stuff like "Seattle played better than I thought they were" or "we weren't very good today and won" but that's crap. Seattle knows how to win and they were in the Super Bowl last year so if you expected an easy game, you were very unrealistic. Seattle was killed by injuries and the Bears had a good game plan to attack those weaknesses. Then they went out onto the field and executed. That is critical in the NFL playoffs and poorly prepared teams will not execute.
Then you have to look at how they handled the pressure. Seattle had none and they weren't intimidated at all. Chicago never let up and they were a turnover away from losing this game. They persevered because they are a good team that knew they could win. Seattle had them at the end of regulation and needed about 15 yards to win. Chicago stopped them and then did then same in overtime. Then on the third and ten they get the huge pass down the field against the weak Seattle secondary for the game winner. This all lends to confidence and it reinforces to this team who hasn't had much playoff luck in the past twenty years that this is a different year. Confidence at this point is huge.
Given the injuries on defense and the lack of consistent production at QB I think the win today was great. They got behind in the 4th quarter then turned it over inside the ten but just kept coming back. That, good gameplanning, and good execution of that gameplan go a long way into making this team a Super Bowl contender and a team that IMO that could win it all. Don't listen to the folks saying the Saints are going to dominate next week but also don't assume you played a bad team today and got away with a victory. Both thought processes are incorrect. Saints despite their offensive prowess are weak on defense and will have to play in a tough environment where the temperature will certainly be very uncomfortable. Seattle today deserved to win just as much as the Bears but in the end that just didn't happen and the Bears won a game that got them one game closer to the Super Bowl. There are no bad victories in the playoffs and no matter what you do to win, you won. Bears actually impressed me more today than they did earlier this season when they beat my team 37-6. Today they showed they could do it when it counts and they did it by having a great coaching effort and then by having the players on the field carry out that plan. Were they perfect? No. This is the playoffs and the regular season means ####! Seattle was the defending NFC Champions (Defending Super Bowl Champions according to what Chris Meyers said today
) and they are a very good team even though they had a rough year. Enjoy the win, should be a great game to watch next week.

update?how else is he supposed to show that the "pack is none and done as usual" statement was completely incorrect while the bears "one and done as usual" statement was spot on? Mr Pack's not the one that brought it up, he simply owned the bears chooch who did.and No, i am not a packers or favre fan.Pack. Come on buddy. You're slipping here. Very Al Bundyish. "Well, back in my day, the Packers were good." Is that what you're coming with? Seriously?You're a Packers fan, and you hate the Bears. Granted. Understandable. But to throw into a conversation about the Bears, who are in the playoffs while the Packers sit at home wondering if their franchise player is retiring, Green Bay's stats over the past 10 years, like that means anything at all right now, is kinda a little sad. I'm sorry I had to break it to you.NFL Year 1996-97: Playoffs #1 NFC Seed - Green Bay, NFC Champ - Green Bay, Super Bowl Champ - Green BayChicago? 7-9NfL Year 1997-98: Playoffs #2 NFC Seed - Green Bay, NFC Champ - Green Bay, Super BowlChicago? 4-12
NFL Year 1998-99: Playoffs #5 Seed - Green Bay, one n done
Chicago? 4-12
NFL Year 1999-00: Green Bay 8-8, Chicago? 7-9
NFL Year 2000-01: Green Bay 9-7, Chicago? 5-11
NFL Year 2001-02: Playoffs #4 Seed - Green Bay, Lost in 2nd rd Divisional Playoffs
Chicago? 13-3; Playoffs #2 Seed - One and done
NFL Year 2002-03: Playoffs #3 Seed - Green Bay; one n done
Chicago? 4-12
NFL Year 2003-04: Playoffs #4 Seed - Green Bay - Lost in 2nd rd
Chicago? 7-9
NFL Year 2004-05: Playoffs #3 Seed - Green Bay - Lost Wild Card Game
Chicago? 5-11
NFL Year 2005-06: Green Bay 4-12
Chicago?; Playoffs #2 Seed - One N Done
Yea as usual the Packers are none and done.
That makes 7 playoff appearances in the past 10yrs for Green Bay, one Super Bowl Victory, another Super Bowl Appearance, and 2 more divisional semi final appearances.
And 2 playoff appearances and 2 "one and done's" for Chicago.
Guess who's

Wish I had a dollar for every time I read the phrase "one and done" when talking about the Bears playoff chances this year.
Gee, where's all those brilliant geniuses now? At home, crying in their Brett Favre pillows, no doubt.
The Bears were the best team in the NFC all year (not Dallas, not the Giants, not even New Orleans)--bar none. Did they stumble along the way? Sure. Did they stumble today? Somewhat. Did they right the ship and do what it takes to win the game? Better believe it.
They deserve to be in the NFC Championship, right along with the Saints. Should be a great game.

I still don't get how this guy still has a column. His latest columns are pretty disgusting...his fawning over the Saints takes it to the point where you'd think he was writing from New Orleans.

Tick tock...Just wanted to bring this back up as the playoffs begin. I don't see the Giants beating Philly so it looks like the Dallas/Seattle winner will be administering the beatdown.Once again the Bears have been exposed. Just like in '01/'02 and '05/'06 a gaudy regular season record based on a weak schedule, weak division, and fluke victories will result in a swift dismissal from the playoffs.Bears.
Nice call Cap'n can I assume your superbowl prediction isn't a Bears championship? I hope you're enjoying the playoffs as much as I am. boubucarow

-CrewMaybe next time you could find an even older post to quote. You're certainly going to have a tough time finding "best team evah" posts from Bears fans once Rex's inconsistencies began to surface and after the loss of two pro-bowl caliber leaders on defense (Mike Brown & Tommie Harris).Guess the Bears making it to the superbowl was just too much for you. Thanks for resisting the urge to pile on the day after the Bears lose the Superbowl. By the way where was 'your' favorite team yesterday? Unless your a Colts fan I guess that would mean they were at home watching the game on TV. Better luck next year
Maybe by next season you'll have turned the "tool" factor down a notch or two...

The difference is that I didn't (or never would) proclaim ANY team the greatest eveh after 4 games, especially considering the sub-par competition the Bears had faced up to that point. Only a tool would do something like that. As for the timing, when did you want me to bring it up? April? June? September?Stay classy

Hey Wrecking Crew - Did you even bother to read this post you are
at? Simply reading the original post would have revealed that BassNBrew clearly pointed out that if the Bears were to continue to average giving up only one touchdown per contest, combined with a 24pt. margin of victory per game, would result in Bears 'statistically' going down as the best team in the history of the NFL.Apparently it was so tough to argue with him on this point that it took you until 4 months after the fact AND less than 24 hrs. after the Bears lost in the Superbowl, but YOU FOUND A WAY. Congratulations! A shot at Sexy Rexy - WOW - How original... :Xbest team evah?!?!?
Not with that QB!
Hmmm you claim that you wouldn't declare ANY team the greatest ever a mere four weeks into the season, thereby implying that the original poster had done just that. Not content to stop there you then label the original poster as a 'TOOL'. Why did you feel the need to post this in the CHICAGO BEARS 2006 season thread Monday after the Super Bowl?BassNBrew simply pointed out that the Bears were on a 'sick' pace during the 1st 4 weeks of the season. Not a difficult concept for most FBGs to understand. I'm sorry if you were let down when the Bears failed to keep up that ridiculous pace.
Oh and very clever of you to not only 'parrot off' the 'Rex Sucks' jab in your 1st post, but now you also managed to squeeze in the worn out argument that the Bears success was a result of playing against 'sub-par competition.'
BRILLIANT!
Gee Whiz Oh I don't know - maybe actually stating your opinions back in October when BnB posted his statistical observations would have been a good time to bring it up. Yet you seem to think that misrepresenting BnB's observations (made on October 8th of LAST YEAR!) is not a toolish idea for you to do in the Chicago Bears thread the day after the Bears lost the SuperBowl.Oooookay

Oooookay
Looks like someone else didn't bother to go back and read the posts from October.(hint - how else would I have known where to look for that knee-jerk proclamation of Bear superiority?)
Let me recap it for you since you obviously don't want to bother finding out what was actually posted and instead would rather just make assumptions about what you thought may or may not have happened based on some psychic ability you must think you possess.
BnB said the Bears were on their way to be the greatest team eveh! and I said that he needed to realize that the statistics he was using were the result of playing weak opponents and that, in fact, the 2006 Bears were not going to be the greatest eveh!
Hmmm, turns out I was right.
So, to sum this up for you:
#1 I did read and understand BnBs original post, I just didn't agree with it.
#2 I did post back in October
#3 I waited for the season to end before bringing it up so that the Bear rubes couldn't "The seasons not over" or "After they win the Super Bowl 55-0" me to death
#4: To quote Denny Green - The Bears are who I thought they were, a good team in a horrible division and inferior conference that used home field advantage and a top 5 defense to make it to Miami, and then were exposed by a supposedly soft dome team that beat them in inclement weather at their own game (defense, strong running game, and more physical play on both sides of the line-of-scrimmage).
So it looks like the only argument you have left is that the 2006 Bears actually ARE the greatest team eveh! and if you think that's true I doubt there is anything I, or any one else for that matter, can say that will snap you back to reality.
