Somewhere, in some thread, somebody chronicled the '85 Bears struggling with a few teams.

Where is that post?

Week one they got lit up by the Bucs for about 3 quaters and rallied to win something like 33-30Week 13, lost outright to the DolphinsThere was one or two other tough games in there.

 

[FairWarning]

Only ones I can remember them struggling with was at Minnesota on MNF, @ Miami, @ GB, and Indy. They dominated on defense as much as NE dominates on offense this year.

Edit for the TB game.

You might be talking about this post, which contains this bit:

Looking at the numbers, I see that they trailed in the 4th quarter against an 8-8 Packers team. They were tied at halftime (and only won by 7) at home against a 2-14 Colts team. They gave up 445 yards to 7-9 Vikings team that ranked 16th in the league in offense.

And of course, they got destroyed by the Dolphins. That game was 31-10 at halftime.

Or maybe this post in that same thread:

The Bears struggled with some mediocre teams during the season as well plus they were blown out in the 1st half by Miami.

Sweet! I think that was it -- thx.

Haha...I see the whole thread was about Bears vs Pats --- I had thought it was an off topic post buried in a thread about the Pats/Balt game, or something like that.

Some guy is claiming they are the best team in history and I have to put him in his place without actually going through the game by game research.

This is hardly an original stance. The argument for the '85 Bears is completely valid. Of course, there are equally valid arguments for a number of teams.

I actually think he's just trolling me because he knows I'm a Pats fan, but it's nice to be able to easily copy/paste some refutation. Although, I think he IS a fan of that team, so maybe it's some of both.

Straight up....they allowed 10 points in the entire playoffs (3 games)......eat that stat.
