Bears Going to the Super Bowl! Part I
Okay, I admit it. I'm as stunned as the rest of you. Yes, they are my team, but not being sure which Rex would show up, I faced today's game with a great deal of trepidation.
Flashback to 1985: Bears vs. Patriots, Super Bowl XX in, of all places New Orleans, LA. Bears 46 - Patriots 10. The Bears set Super Bowl records for sacks (7) and fewest rushing yards
allowed (7). The Bears 36 point margin over the Patriots was a Super
Bowl record until Super Bowl XXIV.
The Patriots were held to negative yardage (-19) throughout the entire
first half, and just 123 total yards in the entire game, the second
lowest total in Super Bowl history.
Back to the present: Potentially, the Bears could once again face the Patriots, depending on the outcome of today's game. However, back then it was a given we would win. Today, there is no certainty other than I am kicking everyone out of the house, for fear of how I will deal with either a loss OR a win!
