Yup. In my mind, just about every single one of those starters should be in the HOF.

(The married ones too)

At this point, 7 out of the 22 starters are in the HOF.

That roster had mind-boggling talent. How Ditka only managed one Super Bowl appearance with that talent is almost criminal. Nice guy. Not the best coach... not here and not later in New Orleans either.

Boy.... Memories fade. Watching those vignettes of a swarming defense brings back memories. That was just a smothering defense. Jeez..... It was brutal. Love it

I can't think of when I've seen a recent Bears defense even approaching that level of ferocity.

Unfortunately (although probably for the better, healthwise) that level of ferocity has been ruled out. The rules forbid you to even touch a QB (well, any of 'em not named Fields).

I wish Hester would have stayed a KR his entire career and without the WR experiment. Quote Select Post Deselect Post Link to Post Back to Top
