facts. I was born in 1986 so I was 20 years old, watched this team every game they played. still watch this and brings me to tears the squad we used to have and a return man in Hester we will not see the rest of our lives again.
15 years... saw it when it first came out. Oh, the memories... wait, what 15 years?! Dang... hoping 2024 bears can bring more years like this. Best hype video ever, btw. Still my benchmark vid.
This year’s team is looking much like our 2006 Super Bowl team. Hell, they even have the same losses!(Packers, Dolphins, Patriots). Our Defense is #1 in DVOA, Ranked 3rd in point differential behind the Chiefs and Rams. Moreover, our offense is Top 10 thanks to an aspiring young mobile QB and a two-headed monster between Howard & Cohen. As well as our receiving corps proven to give teams a fit between the speed and agility of Gabriel & Cohen, the scrappiness and talent of Miller, and the height and red-zone presence from Robinson. Our defense has stepped up their game with Mack being out and with the likely condition of Mack and Robinson being back could be a huge leg up against a struggling Lions team as of now.
In all honesty, it's amazing the Bears got as far as they did that year. The quarterback is still the most important position in the game and Rex Grossman made Jay Cutler look like Tom Brady. The fact that the Bears overcame that liability to reach the Super Bowl is a pretty significant accomplishment.
holy shit. I saw this when i was 10 years old. Im a 25 year old grown man now. I have loved the Chicago bears ever since i can remember, and i will forever. im so glad i foudn this video.
Potty The Parrot the D we have now is better in some aspects. Its also special because this is also an offensive era for the Bears. I think we’ll get to the superbowl in the next couple of seasons
SPEECHLESS as i watch this with a tear in my eyes, not because of sadness but because of the love and passion i had for this team back then. Be a Bear till i die but never be another Brian Urlacher!!!
@maddog088 idk if you’re still around to see this comment, but thank you for this video. Helps me remember the game of football before I understood the front office politics and impact and just enjoyed the game in its purest form. I saw this video 10-11 years ago when I was 10 or 11, and still comeback to it. Also I’m these tough times for bears fans, it’s nice to reminisce on a group of guys who truly gave it their all and executed for the fans and city. Hope you’re doing well maddog and thank your for making memories of mine, timeless 🙏❤️.
People like to talk smack about the Bears a lot now but forget that that 2006 defense, and the Bears in general in 2006 were one of the most underrated teams in the 2000s. That defense was fuckin brutal. Not to forget either that Hester's season was legendary and hasnt been matched or repeated.
Ice J Peyton could throw football's in his sleep wet or dry. We are talking about a hall of famer vs a quarterback who relied on Thomas Jones, a great defense, not too mention a young Devin Hester.
Today bears would have been 19-0. Making brady retire. With grossman. That defense was the best to ever play game. Devin hester best to ever play special teams. They didnt need offense
No way man… sorry, Indianapolis was the better team. The Bears simply didn't have the offense to keep up, and without Tommie Harris. The defense was never the same. They spotted us a 7 point lead and an interception on the next possession, and they still kicked our asses. The Bears were beaten by a better team. Plain and simple.
sergio walsh Injuries are apart of football. No one is completely healthy come playoff time. The Colts were missing guys too. Not to mention, the Bears simply didn't have the consistency on offense to keep up.
richig761 lovie's playcalling doomed the bears. i'm not saying they would have won, but it could have been closer. putting the game on grossman's shoulders instead of having jones and benson carry the load was ridiculous
AJ Stanton Lovie never, at any time called offensive plays. Ron Turner did, as he was the offensive coordinator. And the Bears ran more running plays in that Super Bowl than Pass plays until they had no choice down two scores in the 4th quarter.
whoever made it should be getting ample credit for symbolizing a fantastic season which should've been a Bears SB win. They were a better team in the SB, surely could have won it.
I love the 85 bears . . Watched them too. But this team was just better! This was one of the nastiest defenses I've ever seen!!! That defense didn't lose the super bowl.... (I was there with my wife btw )... Rex lost it.
What are you serious. You are right about one thing Rex lost it! The Tampa 2 was very good. In my opinion the 46 D was outstanding. I think you need to realize anyone can run the 46 but, the 85 team had the right athletes to run it almost perfectly. My fav. part of the 46 was watching the linebackers and watching Dave Duerson come down from his SS position and basically act like a fourth linebacker. The heart of that D was the D line the could take on blocks, shed blocks, or tie up the O line to give the backers room to roam around and punish the QB. A good example of that was the game in Dallas in 1985, The only knock on that linebacking cor was they couldn't cover for shit. Miami exposed that. The 2006 team had better special teams though.
+Daniel Loaiza This team was better than the 85 bears? LOL You have no clue what you're talking about. So many young fans just into the hype and don't know shit.
im not a bears fan, sadly im a die hard cowboys fan, but this video has me in awe. the pump up music and speeches along with a great football team from 06. just great video, well put together.
Too bad Grossman could not keep that up what he did in the first five games and even week 7. He would be an elite QB everyone is talking about right now.
I miss the MONSTERS OF THE MIDWAY FROM 2006-2007 :( But I think Kyle Orton is gonna be a BEAST next year throwing more than 20TD Passes with less than 10INT.
And they said the D might be bad this year. Yea the schedule's been not that tough so far, but 3rd in YPG, 1st in rushing/game, 1st in PPG, 1st in INT, 1st in TO, 4th in sacks (with 1 less game), and 1st in DTD. There's good defense, and then there's public mugging defense. And Urlacher isn't even himself.
yea they both are...they released rex a couple weeks ago and they just announced on i think it was eaither wednesday or thursday that they werent gonna resign mike browns contract cause he was always getting hurt
The Bears really blew it that year. The defense was SO dominant, but Peyton Manning carved them up like a turkey in that Super Bowl. Even Devin Hester spotting them a TD to start the game wasn’t enough. Such a waste. Smh…
Still come back to this video year after year before each Bears season and reminisce. I was 11 years old watching this 2006 Chicago Bears team.
I was the same age watching this team. Brings a tear to my eye watching this video after all these years
I was 12. You were also born in 95 or 96?
I shed a tear of joy every time
facts. I was born in 1986 so I was 20 years old, watched this team every game they played. still watch this and brings me to tears the squad we used to have and a return man in Hester we will not see the rest of our lives again.
This was a magical year. One of the best times of my life. Now this was a defense!
this is still of my favorite highlight reels ever.
15 years... saw it when it first came out. Oh, the memories... wait, what 15 years?! Dang... hoping 2024 bears can bring more years like this. Best hype video ever, btw. Still my benchmark vid.
I hope the Bears get back to the Super Bowl one day. The city deserves it again.
Matthew Jay Evans thank you
Matthew Jay Evans of all the Chicago they are the team that hasn't won the championship in the longest of all of them
Michael Powers Well its been 31 years since their last one. Here's to hoping they get one again.
Matthew Jay Evans yeah

Rex was better than Jay by a long shot. Even with his bad games. Rex had a cannon.
If Kyle Orton started in the superbowl we wouldn’t even be talking
@@Mr.357. Oh so Orton was gonna leap over Griese AND Rex?
@@JakeTSnake7 he got them there
@@Mr.357. You're another fan on crack. Orton did not play a snap in 2006.
Who's watching 14 years later
The gang tackling at 2:58 leaves me speechless. That Viking had no chance!
GRose31399 - that's a team that wants it more
Butkus was probably jumping out of his seats. There's pussy tackling and there's Bears tackling.
This still gives me goosebumps!
holy shit.
I saw this when i was 10 years old. Im a 25 year old grown man now. I have loved the Chicago bears ever since i can remember, and i will forever. im so glad i foudn this video.
Came here to get hyped. Go bears 2024. 🇺🇸
Who's here in 2022 after that win against SF? The flus man will get us to another superbowl!!
I have my hat off already.GREAT ASS video,brings back memories when they were unstoppable.
Classic video from back in the day.
yeah...if this 2006 team could come back with 2013's offense that would be great....
unbeatable
Da Bears992 Were starting to see this defense look like 2006 a little
Potty The Parrot the D we have now is better in some aspects. Its also special because this is also an offensive era for the Bears. I think we’ll get to the superbowl in the next couple of seasons
yuh you got bamboozled lmfao goodbye Nagy and pace
This was an amazing time in my life
SPEECHLESS as i watch this with a tear in my eyes, not because of sadness but because of the love and passion i had for this team back then. Be a Bear till i die but never be another Brian Urlacher!!!
This defense swarmed so well to the ball. It was so fun to watch.
Dude that gang tackling was fkn epic!
Thats how you play football. none of that soft bs we see now
I’ll never forget this video , prolly the best one yet
@maddog088 idk if you’re still around to see this comment, but thank you for this video.

Still gives me chills 10 years later. The Monsters of the Midway will return.
but it wont be the same without urlacher, briggs and peanut
Luis Z we’ve been hibernating but the new monsters of the midway have arrived
@@yuh3491 they hibernating again
@@playoffexpert3938 total team demolition
Best montage of all time.
I can't believe this was nearly 10 years ago.
We now know they had atlas 1 hof on that team we will find out more in the near future
One of the best years of football for Chicago.
Can you just imagine the current offense to go with that defense and special teams?
Oh wee
The 2013 offense yeah... Not the 2014 though
People like to talk smack about the Bears a lot now but forget that that 2006 defense, and the Bears in general in 2006 were one of the most underrated teams in the 2000s. That defense was fuckin brutal. Not to forget either that Hester's season was legendary and hasnt been matched or repeated.
well said!
Best football highlight ever…whoever made this, thank you.
Fk! That gang-tackling at 2:57 is just too awesome. I miss this team so much. These were some good defensive days
I think I’ve watched this thousands of times I will never not come back to this i want it back so bad 💔
Still magical in 2023
what a season. that was such an awesome 5 months.
Who’s here in 2022? My favorite video in 8th grade 🥹
Smh bears should have won that super bowl.
Ernie Wilson It was too wet, Grossman couldn't throw a dry ball let alone a wet one.
drhodes75 and peyton could
Ice J Peyton could throw football's in his sleep wet or dry. We are talking about a hall of famer vs a quarterback who relied on Thomas Jones, a great defense, not too mention a young Devin Hester.
drhodes75 well thats what set the teams apart.
Today bears would have been 19-0. Making brady retire. With grossman. That defense was the best to ever play game. Devin hester best to ever play special teams. They didnt need offense
Just amazing... oh how I wish these days were going on right now....
Someone needs to show the 2015 team this. "This is what you need to do" idk about you but this made me pumped up
Haha nope it's a new day and a new era even though we lost the legion of boom still reigns on
I dont know about yall, but this got the tears going. Behind the 1940s, the 1960s, and the 1985 this has to be one of the perfect teams of all times
If only the bears had a defense like they did in 85' or even in 2006. Their offense is awesome. They just need a new defense.
This is straight bs. Hester should be a hof
Why isn't hester in hof
Favorite team in the 2000's
Who else really misses these days? =(
at the time i saw 14 bears seasons now 16 2006 was my fav
A Bears FOREVER. None of you can touch the love and emotion of being a Bears fan.....
Makes me sad that was a hell of a team man ):
Oh My God That Was The Best Season Ive Seen!!
This video is epic, it gave me so much goosebumps, the film, the song, the plays
#BEARNATION
The Bears should have won that Super Bowl in 2006
No way man… sorry, Indianapolis was the better team. The Bears simply didn't have the offense to keep up, and without Tommie Harris. The defense was never the same. They spotted us a 7 point lead and an interception on the next possession, and they still kicked our asses. The Bears were beaten by a better team. Plain and simple.
richig761 the bears wud of won if they had tommie harris n mike brown in their. But its what it could of been now
sergio walsh Injuries are apart of football. No one is completely healthy come playoff time. The Colts were missing guys too. Not to mention, the Bears simply didn't have the consistency on offense to keep up.
richig761 lovie's playcalling doomed the bears. i'm not saying they would have won, but it could have been closer. putting the game on grossman's shoulders instead of having jones and benson carry the load was ridiculous
AJ Stanton Lovie never, at any time called offensive plays. Ron Turner did, as he was the offensive coordinator. And the Bears ran more running plays in that Super Bowl than Pass plays until they had no choice down two scores in the 4th quarter.
Hard to believe this season is almost 20 years ago.
Not a bears fan, but this video was so freaking well done!
Gotta watch this before every big game! Let’s go bears
I am a die hard CHICAGO BEARS fan. To everyone who had a part in this video I thank you.
I miss how amazing our city was in sports. Now theyve changed the bears this year i believe theyll change good
I remember watching this video in 2009. The difference between then and now is beyond sad
Anybody but Rex Grossman man.. just anybody but him...
The Bears are definitely on the rise, but we need that emotion back for our defense. We need more leaders like Urlacher
Never delete this video
The return against the cardinals always makes my anxiety shoot up
Who is watching in 2017??
Thomas Pickett Meeeee
That One Guy 2020 babyyy
2020!!!!
2021!
whoever made it should be getting ample credit for symbolizing a fantastic season which should've been a Bears SB win. They were a better team in the SB, surely could have won it.
I wish the bears would watch this b4 every game
Cutler haters should watch this
TRUTH
+nope Cutler was in Denver in 2006. That dude at QB was Rex Grossman. lol.
what ?
rex grossman what a arm
Been watching this edit since I was 7 years old in 2007. Bear the Fuck Down!
Such an amazing year for the bears. Fun ass team to watch
I love the 85 bears . . Watched them too. But this team was just better! This was one of the nastiest defenses I've ever seen!!! That defense didn't lose the super bowl.... (I was there with my wife btw )... Rex lost it.

85 bears had the best defense to step on a field.2 consecutive shutouts in the playoffs? yeah....
I still Get goosebumps in 2020
im not a bears fan, sadly im a die hard cowboys fan, but this video has me in awe. the pump up music and speeches along with a great football team from 06. just great video, well put together.
PLEASE LET THE 2017-2018 BEARS PLAYERS SEE THIS VIDEO!! Thats Bears football right there!
Excited for this 2018 squad! Bear Down!
@terrancejamesdaniels this song is called - requiem for a dream
2022 and still watching
Back in 2006 when I watched the bears game I just turned 5 years old.
Bear Down! Best video ever. TY soooooooooooo much
Too bad Grossman could not keep that up what he did in the first five games and even week 7. He would be an elite QB everyone is talking about right now.
us true bears fans know that we are coming back to run the NFC North but also win a Superbowl we will be in top a few years
Hester was the bomb. I don't imagine we'll see anything like that again.
good fucking times
Hester won them so many games it is crazy, we need a good punt returner, and a good defense then we will be in playoff contention.
punt returners like devin are one in a million thou. there prob wont ever be one as good as him
So happy this video still exists I was just thinking about it and I thought there was a chance It was removed
We absolutely need a 2018 version of this
it was the speech fromany given sunday
its the inspirational speech by al pacino
look it up almost anywhere you'll find it
god I wish this was in HD
man the beginning speech gave me chills
We in the playoffs it’s 2020 but doesn’t feel like this did
Goosebumps.
Time to redo this for the 2018 Bears!
Goddamn Hester could could fly, that guy would break tackles from defenders when they were still 10 yards away from him
So epic.
I miss the MONSTERS OF THE MIDWAY FROM 2006-2007 :(
But I think Kyle Orton is gonna be a BEAST next year throwing more than 20TD Passes with less than 10INT.

There's good defense, and then there's public mugging defense. And Urlacher isn't even himself.
Yeah they both are. their contracts are both up and we didn't resign them.
I GOT GOOSEBUMPSSSS
yea they both are...they released rex a couple weeks ago and they just announced on i think it was eaither wednesday or thursday that they werent gonna resign mike browns contract cause he was always getting hurt
2018 bears defense is just as good..and we have a decent offense
Best bears team in history. Surpassed 85 without ring we cheered for punts. Urlacher made cover 2 like the 4 6 of 85
People like the bears because the bears are the most intense team in the NFL
Who’s watching this in 2022
The Bears really blew it that year. The defense was SO dominant, but Peyton Manning carved them up like a turkey in that Super Bowl. Even Devin Hester spotting them a TD to start the game wasn’t enough. Such a waste. Smh…
here again.... Leaving another comment.. Waiting for this to come back to reality.
Sean O'Neill it’s here
Remembered glories are bitter by their very nature...
too bad we dont have anyone like devin hester, brian urlacher tommie harris or mike brown anymore :(
He should have it the ball on the one yard line
Thomas jones
Arizona game, really showed what the bears were made of, no quarterback all special teams and defense.
