Da Bears Excelled in 1st Under New Head Coach

Featured Replies

@aka Contrarian....your home team, Da Bears had an excellent season. Especially compared to the past few years. 

 

1st year Head Coach Ben Johnson deserves a lot of credit for helping QB Caleb Williams and the offense play better.

 

HC Johnson assembled a very good coaching staff too. Defensive Coordinator Dennis Allen earned his money in his 1st year with Da Bears.

 

I thought HC Johnson should have gone for a 2 point conversion after QB Williams threw that miraculous TD to tie the game.

 

If the conversion was successful, Da Bears would have been in the NFC championship game.

 

From a strategic perspective, I understand why HC Johnson played for overtime. Hindsight is always 20/15.

 

Nonetheless, Da Bears and their fans should be very proud of the team. They have a bright future ahead.😎

@ProfDYes, all things considered, it was a good run for DA BEARS. Hopefully, we can keep the momentum alive for next  season and go from better to best!

Thanks for keeping my spirits up all these past weeks! 👍

@aka Contrarian what is your favorite memory involving in any way, the chicago bears?

So many. The 1985 super bowl shuffle video, of course. And this season, all of the last minute come-from-behind victories orchestrated by the "ice man" QB Caleb Williams.

Those thrilling moments were like something out of a movie. Unreal!

We were on our way to another one of these miracles this past Sunday -  but no such luck...

The Bears final game was one of a few I watched this season.  That pass under pressure and catch was crazy!  It was a tour loss for Bears fans though...

Talk about turning around a team -- I also checked out the Indiana game.

Yes, eventually losing the game after that spectacular play was particularly bittersweet because the reason  for the subsequent interception was a miscommunication between QB Caleb Williams and receiver DJ Moore when we were perhaps one play from winning the game at the last moment like we did 4 other times this season. 

So it's going to be a loooong winter for Bear fans, the feeling being we'll never have another miracle season like this one again...

Sports enthusiasts are a crazy bunch, and millions of BEAR fans in Chicaoland are still bummed out over that loss, me included.  🫩

With shape the country is in thanks to that A-hole Trump, it was such an exhilarating experience to live in the moment and watch wildest wishes come true in the company of family and friends all jumping around, sharing your joy, cheering the team on.

Now it's back to the real world, knowing I may never watch another Bear game or experience the thrill of victory again!

                C'est la vie.

 

Hibernation calls me...😴

I believe Da Bears will be even better next season especially if the team stays healthy.😎
