Transition: For the Bears, only a Super Bowl win can top a playoff victory over the Packers
12 Jan 2026
Chapter 1: What noise did the Bears and Packers players make this week?
It was a lot of talking this week. You know what I mean? Like, and not even just today, like throughout the week, like we heard the noise. We heard the noise from Christian Watkins and, and Keyshawn Nixon, all the guys talking.
You done did it now Packers. You upset Kevin Byard.
Yeah, man.
How did that work out for you?
Feeling like Colin Cowhert after a bad prediction.
You tried to mispronounce it.
Yeah, I couldn't remember how you called it. But yeah, Colin Cowhert, Christian Watkins.
Christian Watkins is good. I may never call him Christian Watson again. Thanks to our guests. Thanks in reverse order, we go. Dan Witterer, thanks to Anthony Heron. Thanks to Rinalis for hooking us up with... Not only a ceremonial cheese grater, but the rest of the victory chicken today. Ray Diaz, Tyler Buterbaugh, Connor O'Donnell is always. Jacob Stutz, Max Curtis helping us out.
Grant Leder helped us out with sound as well. And a special hello to Lawrence Holmes and Matt Spiegel on a day we have never experienced before together, gentlemen.

Chapter 2: How did Bears fans react to the playoff win over the Packers?
Don't you think so, Lawrence?
If you're going to text Jed, text him and say, don't trade Nico.
I don't think I need to anymore. I don't think they're going to.
We were up front on that one. There's some apron issues afoot.
I think they're going to go over. Which apron is that? First, second, third? First.
We know they don't really do aprons over there. They really don't like to do aprons. Look, Tanny also told us today that if there's any Bregman in my Bears, he's going to call the waiter. Waiter, excuse me. There's some Bregman in my Bears today. As exciting as that is, that win, I mean, where does that rank on the Chicago sports wins that we've been witness to?
I mean, that's just one of the great wins of our sports town.
Well, the improbability factor is really what you've got to add in there. It's its own category, I think. Yes, it's a big win by itself, but just the circumstances and scoring 25 points in the fourth quarter, I'm not sure what the comp is.
It's such a big win that the only thing that matters now is the Bears winning the Super Bowl. That's how big of a win it was.

Chapter 3: What makes this playoff win significant for Chicago sports?
Who hurt you?
Where did you get hurt? He should kill O'Neal, tell the story about how David Robinson wouldn't give him an autograph, and then years and years and years later, what does Shaq tell us? Oh, I made that story up. I totally made it up.
Just for motivation. That's what I think.
Sometimes there's something real. I used to have it with a colleague here. Sometimes there's something that sits in the back of your mind for decades and you never talk about it. And Matt LaFleur is a little more handsome. He rose up a little faster. He got his chances and all of that. And within the division, I can see it.
I think Ben's pretty handsome. I think you're trying to come with some ugly duckling stuff that doesn't exist. The entire division. Like, you're trying to make a backstory that does not exist. Like, when you talk about the nerdiness and all that, I was like, to Lawrence's point, he was a quarterback.
He did play football. And he's ripped. Or I know some backstory.
Either one of those things could be true. So you're saying he was a legit nerd who happened to play football.
Well, I mean, he's the analytics guy, isn't he? But he's also a football guy. He could be a football player and be smart.
Absolutely. I mean, one of those guys is now running the Atlanta Falcons.

Chapter 4: How does the Bears' playoff win compare to past Chicago sports victories?
For sure, for sure. You need it all.
One of our producers roped a double off of Matt Ryan in high school. Really? Yeah, Paul Aspin, who used to work with us at BetMGM. Did you know that story, Marshall?
I don't think I did know that story.
Back in Delco.
That's pretty dope.
I know about Delco.
That's fun. When you run into a pro, and then you're like, oh, I actually was on par with that person, and they took off on a rocket.
cliff floyd yeah it wasn't it wasn't yeah it wasn't like that with me and cliff floyd we were all in awe of cliff floyd from the moment that he walked on the diamond and and still to this day because he is living a great life like this this whole thing though is just it's beautiful
Mark Grody, was it beautiful at that place, in that locker room?
