Rahimi & Grote Show · Mike Florio talks Bears' 59-point outburst, D'Andre Swift's impact · 16 Sep 2026 podcast

You don't just roll out of bed and score 59 points, especially week one. matched

There's so much extra focus on that first game. matched

And by week two, three, four, five, six, that diminishes. matched

But the idea that they came out of the gates in year two of Ben Johnson, year three of Caleb Williams, and looked that good, both passing and running, and just unstoppable. matched

Yeah, not ideal to give up 37. matched

But if you're gonna be scoring that many points, who cares? matched

It makes the games more fun to watch. matched

And defense is fun if you're shutting teams out and just consistently winning, winning, winning, winning. matched

But matched

They changed the rules over the years to make offense more of a thing for a reason. matched

Football with yards and points is more fun, and it's a lot more fun when you're a team that can do that. matched

And the Bears have never been that team both in the running game and in the passing game at the same time. matched

And it was so surprising because the first two games, standalone, a lot of attention, Wednesday night, Thursday night, not a lot of points, not a lot of excitement. matched

Especially the Thursday night game, which was just a slow suffocation of the Rams by the forty niners, and then all hell breaks loose in the one o'clock Eastern noon central window on Sunday. matched

So the Bears are at the front of that line. matched

The Bears so far, let's see what they do. matched

There was a year a few years back where the Saints exploded the first two weeks with a ton of points and then just kind of gradually fell apart. matched

I don't think that's gonna happen. matched

with the Bears. matched

If anything, I feel like this is the beginning and maybe they will get to sixty, maybe they will get to seventy one of these weeks. matched
