But thankfully, we were able to squeeze in a couple minutes.

And again, I don't know how you guys feel today, but man, that was one that was difficult to wrap your brains around.

In real time, the following day, here we are two days later, and you're still trying to process the entirety of that game, which again, instantly iconic win for the Bears for sure.

Yeah, well, it was because that halftime deficit was big time.

You know, it's 21-3.

They do get the advantage of a missed kick there, the first of many, from Brandon McManus on Saturday night.

And I feel like that gave them a small sliver of hope.

You know, and this team doesn't need much.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show

sort of psychological lift for a defense of knowing that Caleb Williams is on your side because even down 18 points, you can go and say, hey, we've got a chance here.

If we can just do our part and get a few stops and get the ball back in the hands of our offense, they can go make magic happen.

Rahimi, Harris & Grote Show

is enormous, and I think that what was so sort of, you know, perfectly fitting about Saturday night is the Packers were the team that did that to the Bears forever.

You know, they had Rodgers just ripping their heart out over and over and over again, and now it's like, oh, wait, that guy's in the Bears' huddle, and the Packers don't have an answer for it, and sort of the symbolic sort of shifting of...

momentum in this rivalry.
