Apologies if this is old news. I just find it interesting that Payton is suddenly "taking over." Honestly? From what I've seen from the Broncos? I have never been impressed by the offense. The defense? Yes. But even with Payton running things offensively I was never that impressed. Still, I do find this bit of news interesting after the Broncos laid one against the 49ers.

The problem wasnt the OC, the problem is Bo Nix. He doesnt throw over the middle so you really only have to defend from the hashes out. Also, some look at the stat of his 4th qtr comebacks thinking it's incredible but it shows his problem. He doesnt take chances until he has too. He loves to dump it off, Alex Smith 2.0 in that way.

Secretly Jerry Jones is thinking "thank God. Now 'how horrible the Cowboys' are is no longer the top story in sports "

The 80s battles vs Chicago were just legendary. They have some dogs on the other side..kind of like 49ers/Hawks of today. He was a tough SOB and he also got into it with fans if I remembered it correctly. RIP Coach.

We need a reunion of the two SuperFans on SNL. Ditka was a big part of those routines.

Wow. RIP. I remember Coach Ditka but I remember learning about him as a player. The first TE I know of in NFL history to put uo big numbers and truly the prototype for the kind of TE I like. Truly one of the greats, legendary coach, and always a good soundbite.

The Niners still won most of the games against Chicago. The only time they were solidly beaten by the Bears was that 1985 season when the Bears won by 2 scores. Other than that the Niners usually came out on top. The Niners defense during that period was usually in the top 3 and they had a much better offense than the Bears. That was the difference. The Bears offense wasn't great even when they won the SB. They had Walter Payton but nit much else. Payton was done by the 1987 season. Of course the Bears didn't have Montana and Walsh either.
