With the Bears having already handled business on Saturday, I started watching “Severance” at the suggestion of a new friend. The early returns have me intrigued, even if I realized quickly that it might not be the best show for me to watch on an eerily quiet night in the neighborhood because of its mind-bending plot. Anyway, I’m always open to new show suggestions. Bonus points if they’re funny and I can watch as background noise. Let’s start this BN Bears Bullets with a celebration me...

The Chicago Bears haven’t seen Soldier Field that electric since the 2019 season opener against the Green Bay Packers. And ironically, much like the 2019 game (also against the Packers), the Bears were unable to score touchdowns through three quarters (and most of the fourth). But unlike that game six years ago, there was a […]

On a day where I cannot stop watching that game-winning Caleb Williams overtime touchdown throw to DJ Moore , I found my eyes bugging out of my head when I saw that Montez Sweat had the best initial grade from Pro Football Focus after the Chicago Bears’ 22-16 victory against the Green Bay Packers. And I mean that in the most complimentary way possible. PFF player grades aren’t the be-all, end-all. But they do serve a purpose in helping contextualize what we just saw. In this case, th...

Shout out to everyone who came through for the Ivy Hall BN Bears watch party event at Lottie’s. I don’t have much of a voice this morning. Good thing I don’t have to use it right now. It wasn’t a dream. Caleb Williams made that throw. DJ Moore made that catch. The Iceman came, saw, and conquered in overtime. It was ridiculous. The Chicago Bears won a game that they trailed by a 16-3 score late in the fourth quarter. What a bonkers game. It perfectly captures what life as a Bears fan has...
