Watching the Bears of late has been like visiting a terminally ill family member. You feel obligated to do so, but you know it's going to be difficult.
Bears' Unraveling Continues
Seattlest Takes It On the Chin Like A Trooper
I won that little wager on yesterday's Bears-Seahawks game I had with Seattlest editor Allecia Vermillion and, just as we pinky swore, Allecia honored the bet and gave me space on Seattlest to talk trash to the Emerald City. No hard feelings, Allecia?
Bear Market on Playoff Tickets
Are Bears fans so confident that their team will roll an opponent with a losing record that they're already thinking about the NFC Conference Championship? Have they gotten soft in this January weather? Saving their money for a Verizon iPhone? Whatever the reason, demand is lagging for tickets for the Sunday's Bears-Seahawks playoff game at Soldier Field.
Here Come the Hawks
Here come the 'Hawks, but we don't mean the mighty Blackhawks. The Bears will play host to the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC divisional round playoffs Sunday, as the Bears' lucky season continues to shower them with good fortune.
Morning Box Score: Seahawks Drop Bears
Even when they've won, the Bears' play has been less than satisfying to watch. We knew that they couldn't continue to find ways to win every week, and Sunday was case in point. The Seattle Seahawks, who had yet to win on the road, came into Soldier Field and left with a 23-20 victory that dropped the Bears to 4-2 on the season.
Rexyback
I'm bringin' Rexy back That other boy threw just as many picks I think Rexy's special... he's my quarterback He can turn around our team or I'll take the flack So maybe Lovie Smith didn't perform a parody of Justin Timberlake's hit song, but the Bears' head coach did announce to the press on Wednesday that he was changing quarterbacks again and that Rex Grossman will start when the Bears face the Seattle Seahawks on...
Bears Open Playoffs This Weekend
Chicagoist knows where we'll be on Sunday — parked in front of our new 46" LCD TV that we bought in order to better watch our Bears. We have a feeling you'll also be similarly positioned on Sunday, too. That's because the Bears will host the Seattle Seahawks in their first playoff game, following a first-round bye. Seattle made it past the first round because of a botched field goal by the Dallas Cowboys last...
Bears To Face Seahawks
While the Bears have known for weeks now that they'd be hosting their first playoff game, they finally know their opponent. The Bears will host the Seattle Seahawks at noon on Sunday following Seattle's miracle win over the Dallas Cowboys. When the Bears and Seahawks faced off in Week 4, Chicagoist was jumping off our couch in excitement as the Bears trounced the 'Hawks 37-6. But does that October win give any indication of how...
Bears Now Tops in NFC
The Bears made their first prime time appearance of 2006 on Sunday night againt the Seattle Seahawks. In addition to being the defending NFC Champions, the Seahawks entered the game as the only other undefeated team in the NFC besides the Bears. We expected a close game, but instead the Bears took the opportuntity to demonstrate to a national audience just how dominant they can be. They pounded the Seahawks, winning by a final score...
Bears Take Commanding Lead in NFC North
This game was a good bit closer than their previous two, and Chicagoist even feared for a while that they might actually lose, but the Bears won again on Sunday! In beating the Minnesota Vikings 19-16 in the Metrodome, the Bears won up there for the first time since 2001 and have started a season 3-0 for the first time since 1991. More importantly, this win gives the Bears a 3-0 record against the NFC...
Bears Pick Apart Packers
Well, that sure looked easy! Opening up at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, the Bears made it perfectly clear who controls the NFC North this year, shutting out the Packers 26-0. This was the first time in Brett Favre's career that the Packers had been held scoreless. The Bears put together a complete effort, winning this game because of their offense, defense and special teams. Rex Grossman looked like a real QB, compiling a 98.6...
Bears Schedule Released
The NFL released the 2006 schedule today, so we thought we'd take a first look at the Bears' 2006 schedule. The Bears open the season against their biggest rivals -- the Green Bay Packers. Will Brett Favre still be their QB then? He has yet to indicate whether he's returning or retiring. Either way, the Bears can expect a win their opening game because the Packers will be pretty bad. Is it really a Bears-Packers...
