History

Historical Context

Mike Ditka’s 1985 Bears posted a 15-1 record, allowed only 198 points and shut out two playoff foes before winning Super Bowl XX on Jan 26 1986. The 2024 27-7 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles, highlighted by Case Keenum’s 247-yard pass and a Jalen Hurts interception, revives that historic defensive dominance and fuels Chicago’s NFC North playoff hopes.
