This is a very memorable game for me. I just transferred back stateside from my ship. The entire experience getting from Spain to New York (on my way to my new duty station) was 17 hours of hell. We missed all connection flights and were put up for the night. When I finally got to my room, I flipped on MNF just in time to see 'Fridge score. Made it all worthwhile. Almost. Cheers....

Absolutely. Steve Mongo McMichael played for both teams, and is a amazing player, teammate, and human being. It is tragic that he has to face this illness. Prayers to him and his family.

I'm a Viking fan (yes, I realize I'm a fool) and generally can't stand our division rivals. Particularly in seasons when I think we have a chance, I really can't stand the division rival(s) who I perceive to be a threat. Having said that, that 85 Bears team was different. By mid season I was actually pulling for them. In my 40+ years of watching the NFL, there hasn't been a team quite like them. Sure there have been some juggernaut teams over the years. But the personalities on this team were off the charts. I don't have the words to describe this team. On of those deals you had to live through.

This game was pretty much over at the end of the first half but that first half was indeed a doosy. Walter Payton was still the superstar that he has always been and The Fridge was knocking around opposing players like they were bowling pins. The teams met two weeks later at Lambeau and tempers got ugly in that one.

? Did you even watch the game? Or did you just skim through the video? It wasn't out of reach until the 4th quarter, with the Packers only two scores down and driving deep over and over throughout the 3rd, but just continuing to kill themselves with turnovers and penalties and mishaps.

Bad blood spilled over to the next season. The Week 3 meeting against the Packers was a pretty tame affair, but the Week 12 game was downright ugly. McMahon got slammed to the turf by Charles Martin, aggravating McMahon's already damaged shoulder. The game was in doubt for most of the 4th quarter until Butler settled matters.
@Ron898Ай бұрын
This was the start of the bad blood, really. The Bears were a much better team, but they couldn’t be classy winners. They had to do things like run Fridge in a decided game, or Dent slamming Dickey to the ground. They should not have been surprised when something like Martins hit happened.

1.This game brings memories. 2. The 85 Bears were the first rock star NFL team. 3. Prior to this, the rock star treatment was reserved for the most glamorous position, qb. 4. In the past, men like Bradshaw, Staubach, Unitas, and the three men working this game were the ones to receive it. 5. But this game was eerie( and not just because of the scene at 1:00). 6. This game was the official birth of the Refrigerator. 7. But, Mike Ditka called this game just as he should have in Super Bowl XX. 8. Before the egos got outta control, the head coach called a run play for Walter Payton which resulted in a score. 9. Then, he made the call that allowed the Refrigerator to become a folk hero. 10. If the call had been like this in XX, the hard feelings that boiled over in later years would have been largely avoided. 11. But as it stood this was an overwhelming Bear night. Against the hated Packers.

Another guy that buys all the bs about Ditka intentionally depriving Payton of a touchdown. I saw every game Payton played and cried when he died, but that whole thing was entirely because Walter acted like a spoiled child. Ditka had the ultimate respect for Payton. He was the one that kept him in long-decided games in 85 to make sure he got his 100 yard rushing streak. Ditka also refused to bench Payton in favor Neal Anderson in 87. Don't get me wrong . . . Ditka had plenty of silly moments as a coach, but the idea that he intentionally deprived Payton of a touchdown is stupid.

1.I NEVER wrote Ditka "intentionally" deprived Walter of a touchdown. 2.I wrote that he made the call for Refrigerator ( which he did) which spilled over later( which it did, even according to Iron Mike himself, and not just with Walter himself). 3.I'm well aware of Ditkas respect for Payton, and as for 87, Ditka tried to emulate his second coaching hero( Tom Landry), in playing both Anderson and Walter.

@@vernonrobinson1685 He wasn't emulating anyone in 87. After the 86 season ended, McCaskey told Ditka he had to start Anderson or he would be fired, so Ditka started Anderson at fullback because he refused to bench Payton. It had nothing whatsoever to do with emulating anyone.

@@vernonrobinson1685 You are absolutely wrong. Ditka refused to bench Payton, which is what McCaskey wanted. McCaskey ordered Ditka to start Anderson or he would've been fired.

It's weird that they perceived the Bears uniforms to be black instead of navy. Even the graphics 59:14 show as black/grey. They were also black in Tecmo Bowl. It just shows how a perception can be perpetuated.
