The Bears Are Officially Relevant Nationally

Y'all want to watch us!? I am BLUSHING. This is what happens when you're young, fun, and 4-2 to start the season. You can say that about both teams here. I am sure the Bears have been flexed into a big game before, but not that I can easily remember. It's almost always a bad thing. Chicago has hated the spotlight. We want to suffer alone in the corner and hope nobody outside of our trust tree sees the game. Now, we want the stage and it's mutual. It's actually kind of perfect. 330pm kick on Soldier Field is important, but it's not the true spotlight. It's kind of like at the beginning of a new relationship you like. You introduce the girl in a casual setting to your brother or your friends. You don't dive straight into Christmas dinner with the parents. Baby steps. We just need to keep this relationship happy until the big show...Thanksgiving vs Lions. 

Great move by the NFL. Even if you're a Caleb hater (I don't know why those people exist) you can't deny that these are two most exciting young quarterbacks to come into the league at the same time in a while. We've had a great influx of star QBs, but they're all on the AFC side with Mahomes, Allen, and Burrow. The NFC's two teams with seemingly bright futures are playing in this game. I think it's going to be great. I hope this becomes a rivalry. I want to buttheads the way Mahomes and Allen do in the playoffs. The way that Manning and Brady did. It makes the whole league better. I am glad both guys are looking good and let's all remember that during and after this game. Everyone be cool. Everyone have fun. Enjoy the show.
