I agree, 5 games are all I need. I say we just skip the rest of the season and declare them the champions right now. There is just no need to even play any more games. They are much more deserving then the Colts were last year. Congratulations to the best team EVAH!

1999 Rams: 183-60, +1232006 Bears: 156-36, +120But the Bears points margin is more impressive. For example, the Bears LN(PS/PA) is 1.47 vs. the Rams 1.12. The Bears pythagorean winning percentage is 0.970, while the Rams was 0.934. (Note, the exponent used for the NFL is 2.37).So yes, a very good claim could be made that the Bears have been the most dominant 5-0 team ever. Although to the Rams credit, their closest game was a 17 point win.Doug Drinen said:

I am a Bears fan. I do think that at this point they are probably the best team in the league at this point. Honestly, they have played a cake schedule so far. The only playoff team is the Seahawks. I realize that you can only play the teams you are scheduled to play, but there is a lot of football to be played. The 05 Colts were mentioned, and conversely, the Steelers sort of came out of nowhere last year. There are a lot of good teams in the NFL. I would feel better if the Bears had already beaten a few more of the better teams, suchas, the Bengals and the Eagles. There is reason for optimism, but let's not get out of hand with it.BassNBrew said:

especially since it is libelous. I would bet Grove Diesel didnt have the score in his post.

Green Bay, Detroit & Minnesota do not belong in the same sentence with "tough schedule".
In fact, the entire Bear schedule looks like a bakery with all those cupcakes. Chicago shouldn't lose a game all year......until the playoffs......because they are the Bears.

Where was it said they had a "tough schedule"?

Even as a Lions fan, I must give da Bears some props. They are looking like a complete team now, not just a team with a dominant defense and no offense. I didn't think Grossman was the answer (as he could never seem to stay healthy). But man, they are solid on both sides of the ball right now...

If he wants to be stupid it's his perogative. I posted that about 10 minutes or so into the game. At that point I felt that the Bills had outplayed the Bears. The offense was clicking on their first drive and certainly had the opportunities. The playcalling and the play of Losman on the first drive was spot on. The Bills' defense tightened up on the short field and held the Bears to a FG. It was at that point that I made my comment. If some Bears homer that rarely ever posts wants to jump on the bandwagon after their hot start, he's allowed to make a fool of himself. The Bills got whipped and I'm man enough to eat my crow for the things that I WAS wrong on. The true test will be if the bandwagon jumpers are still here if things head south.

If Grossman continues to play at this high level, this will be the BEST TEAM EVER!! (And it won't even be close.)
I think I know you! Didn't we cut 7th period class together...I skipped my math class while you missed reading class.

Why is that. The Bears Schedule has seen one decent team minus the reigning NFL MVP, and 4 teams that will be lucky to finish .500, 2 of which will be battling for the #1 pick in the 2007 draft. Do you consider that tough?

Not really, however, the Bears are destroying the opposition like few other teams in NFL history at this point.

I'll type this slower so that you might be able to follow along. Doug Drinen said the Bears schedule has been tougher then the '99 Rams. I said that mentioning "tough" and the Bears schedule is wrong because they have played 1 good team, who were without the '05 NFL MVP. I don't think I can be any clearer then that.

I'm not going to get pulled into a lame girl fight with you, but you're just making my point. In 3 years you've manged 300 posts, about a third of which have come in the last 2 weeks. Nice to see you come out of your hole to start bragging about the Bears after 3 years. And I don't believe that I was bragging about the special teams play of the Bills. I've said my piece now so you might as well take your stinky bait somewhere else.Sorry junior, I've been here alot longer than you. Great special teams play by the Bills today, yup they are the best for sure.

We'll see when the Bears lose a few which they certainly will. They are the best team in the NFL RIGHT NOW, which means almost nothing when January and the pressure "bears down." All I can say is the fall from this high could be tough.I'm not going to get pulled into a lame girl fight with you, but you're just making my point.

Give it up, slappy. There is no such thing as a "tough" schedule for the Bears. The only way they will have to face a tough schedule is if they league starts having them play 2 teams at the same time.
Well the Bears have only faced one winning team to date, the Vikings and they barely beat them. Heck, if it wasn't for the Vikings great comeback this week the Bears would still be waiting to play that first over .500 team.

Let me help you out here in terms you may understand. One might argue that Big Bird is tougher then Elmo. Does that also mean that person is arguing that Big Bird is tough?

Here is what I wrote: Green Bay, Detroit & Minnesota do not belong in the same sentence with "tough schedule".Do I actually have to change the tense of "tough" to "tougher" in order for you to understand that my point was that the Bears schedule has not been tougher then anyone elses? Talk about skipping english class..... :whoosh:

Good post Rads but let add this thought as well. While the competition may have been stiffer, and that could be debated, keep in mind that the rules changes have benefitted the offense since then. In order for D's to shut down teams these days, they must attack teams in more areas such as the TE in order to be effective. The '85 Bears could focus more on the run. They didn't have the cover guys and fast LB's and DE's this ,team has. This D is better IMO.

I guess you Bears homers are right. Your 5-0 start has proved the doubters wrong.Gamblor, you can tell he doesn't get it, and won't ever get it on his own, have some pity and spell it out for him.
You have played nothing but top-flight competition, the cream of the NFL crop, and dominated them like no other team ever has.
Everyone else is playing for 2nd place.
The rest of the league just hopes you stop with your 4-peat so other teams don't get discouraged and disband so that they won't have to lose to the greatest team EVAH!

One thing the offense may have to worry about is the wide-open type of play that they have been using (and been good at it) may be tougher to do when the weather gets cold. It will be interesting to see if they can change their style in order to adjust to the weather.

I never knew the '85 Bears were in the running for this season's Super Bowl:
06 Bears D, O and ST >>> whatever the NFL wants to schedule for them

The bottom line: You can only beat the teams on your schedule, and noboby really talks about the cakewalk schedule the mighty '99 Rams had now, do they?

I hate SOS discussions because it means nothing. Last year I fought all year with doubters saying the Seahawks weren't that good because they didn't play anyone. It's not the Bears fault they play in a crappy division, play the NFC West, and the AFC East. They have to play the Giants and Bucs as their first place schedule. It's likely they will enter the playoffs with a poor SOS and it means nothing. They get home-field and they are the team to beat and the schedule they played in October will mean nothing.
