“Bears lead three to nothing after one. Uh, then Minnesota comes back. Our man, Cordell Patterson, we haven't talked about CPP thirty three yard toss sweep. Vikings up seven to three.”
“I want to play the first eight games with the Bears, and then I want to be traded the next eight games through the Eagles.”
“Your Bears pulled off there at the end. I think we're heading for close to that again, at least with the Bears, Packers, Lions. I'm actually gonna take the Lions. I take the Lions for a bounce back.”
“I do think Bears fans can take this loss a little better than say the Bills, who will get too soon, because it does feel like the start of something rather than the end of something.”
“I'm going, I'm going Bears, Texans, selfishly, Bears, Texans, I'm, I'm speaking that into existence. Bears, Texans, write it down. Put the bring the credits, let the credits roll. We're going to our first Super Bowl this year.”
“He was as good as he's ever been for the really big moments of the Bears Packers playoff game on Saturday night. Here's a taste for the final play eating furiously.”
“Those two teams, like the Bears and Packers, don't like each other, and so that was a very frustrating watch. Iowa had their chances and they ended up losing that game, and they're on a bit of a skid now.”
“I mean, if they win, they would have a winner take all game next week as well against the Bears. And then they lose, it's into embarrassment.”
“The Bears gave up one last week to Pat Fryermuth. They've allowed the fifth most receptions to tight ends, so I'm giving him a bronze. It just feels appropriate here. He's got to get that touchdown.”
“Buck Is Steelers at the Bears, and a Bears team that's just hot, does all get out against against the Pittsburgh Steelers team that's been a little bit checkling high the last couple of weeks.”
“The Bears after you know, settling for a lot of field goals. Jake Moody came through at the end, they got down the field. Deandres s Fifth had a heck of a game. But the Bears go on the road.”
“Around their bye week, there's a Steelers Jets Bears bye week. Steelers Patriots run of games, which I don't think they should be viewed as heavy underdogs.”
“They're tempting me because honestly, if you go back and watch last year, this Bears team shockingly played pretty tough against this Lions team that had all the pieces, so pretty interesting matchup.”
“My Bears go to Detroit to play the Lions in a game where the loser is oh win two and probably two games back in the division. Dan Campbell says this is a must win. We cannot lose this game.”

“It is Bears at the Lions. We're giving up five and a half points. The over under is forty seven and a half. Kenny Albert, Jonathan Vilma, Megan o'livey on the call.”
“My take was, if the Bears get one more drive, and even if they don't score, it is a field position. Because JJ was playing with no confidence, I'm like, just pin them deep, make JJ drive ninety four yards.”

“I would I would lean into the Lions because I think clearly their coaching staff is better than the Bears. But I don't love this game right now.”
“Matt Hasselbeck, What a fun weekend we had Bears Vikings tonight. I don't know what I'm going to get in that one matters.”
“At the end of next hour, we're gonna bring on Tid Dunn, who has a three part expose on what a disaster, Caleb Williams rookie year behind the scenes troubling if you're a Bears fan. They host the Vikings tonight.”
“I mean last year the Bears allowed the most sacks, worst total offense, FEUs yards per play it all. They reboot it tonight and Tyler Isolah's great work and thank you.”
“That's one of those sneaky, tough matchups where I think most fans would give the Bears a w. I could see an upset city. They're gonna get upset wherever they might start feeling themselves, you know.”
“It just seemed like the whole game you guys were playing hard and dictating to the Bears offense. Was what was just kind of the attitude and the mindset going into this one.”
How these quotes are chosen
Each excerpt is copied word for word from a transcript the podcast publisher supplies with the episode. Nothing is paraphrased, shortened mid-sentence, or stitched together from two speakers. The timestamp is where the passage begins — 1:03:43 on the first quote above — and the link opens the episode at that point.
Transcripts label voices as “Speaker 1”, not by name, so every quote is attributed to the SHOW unless the speaker identified themselves on the recording. We never guess who spoke. If a quote here is wrong, use “Report this quote” and we unpublish it immediately while we check.
Podcasters who have claimed their show can opt out of quoting entirely.
