It was the Les Steckle year, 1984

or, as I called it, “The Year That Wasn’t”.

Also, I hate the Bears, Chicago, and Soldier Field more than anything in the entire world. I cheer for the Packers when they play the Bears, and I hope for a tie when the Saints play them.

Last I looked, the Vikings were -3.5. But the Bears are 6-2 against the spread the last 8 meetings

My $ is on the Bears to cover and win:

Bears 24
Vikings 23

we score the TD to get to 23,  and then miss the EP.

or we score the TD to get to 22,  kick the EP instead of going for 2,  because Zimmer had confidence in his D to get the ball back, the bears then run out the clock getting a couple easy first downs after we burned out timeouts on first down stops.
