It's intersting that with how many times Tom Brady has played in the Super Bowl, he has never played an NFC North team in the Super Bowl. We was close to playing Chicago in 2006 but utimalty lost int he AFC Title game to the Colts.
I remember I was in 2nd or 3rd grade this year, the Bears team came to my school a week leading up to the superbowl. I’ve always been a Lions fan so I didn’t appreciate it as much as I should’ve but this defense had some hitters for sure.
Love how the bears knew their offense was so terrible their best chance to move the ball downfield was to throw jump balls 40 yards down the field and pray for a PI or a catch since that was more efficient than actually running an offense
Bears fan here. I remember this game mainly because I was watching it with my dad (RIP) and brother but also because this was the 3rd leg of a 3-game road trip (NYG, NYJ, NE) that many said would determine how good the Bears really were. They won 2 of those games, but not this one. The only TD the Bears scored was on a terrible PI call deep in Patriots territory. Many people don't remember this, but they installed that FieldTurf right before this game because the grass field was in terrible shape and I think the Patriots lost a game because of it, so during the bye week they hurried up and put the turf in so they wouldn't risk losing to the Bears...lol
Those Urlacher Bears defenses are definitely one of the best "uncrowned" defenses in league history. All they needed was a decent offense to complement.
@@JGMGamer07 that’s a ridiculous statement they literally went 16-0 the next year just because it took a miracle to beat them doesn’t change the fact that Randy Moss greatly improved the team.

I was hoping that the Bears didn't play NE in the Super Bowl because I knew my Bears would lose. Patriots were a terrible matchup for the Bears and this game proved it.
Rex Grossman was the worst QB to ever appear in a Super Bowl. It's astonishing that he and the Bears made it that far in 2006. Imagine if the Bears actually had a GOOD QB.
Patriots are literally like the current Chiefs. Greatest QB, piss poor to average receivers, declining but still top TE, a runng back that can also get you screens, and a defense that continuously bails them out. Oh, and the greatest coaches.

Say what you want about Rex Grossman, but he was damn good at forcing DPI. Horrible about doing anything besides it but he was good at that.
