I'd be willing to bet the Cowboys had quite the lead a decade ago.

How bad were the Patriots before Brady to not be on this list? Haha

I know, right? I closed the tab, but I think they were barely off of it.

And how good were the Bears back in the day??

karlsafchick.bsky.social•3 days ago

Good for a very long time. A friend gave me a trivia question once that was basically

How many years would the Cardinals have to go 17-0, and the Bears go 0-17 for the Cards to have a better lifetime record?

I don't remember the exavt answer, but it was like 2 decades, I think.

Even more impressive when you consider how many fewer games per season were played back when the Bears were dominant under George Halas (12 or 13 compared to 16 or 17 in recent years)

I think I might sit down and do the math tonight to that trivia question. I thought of a funny scenario, though. Say you're a young guy pre WWII in Chicago, and you get to choose between the Chicago Bears and Chicago Cardinals being your favorite team... and you make the wrong choice.

The haunting feeling would be terrifying

Both teams started in 1920.

Accurate…but you’d think that closing the gap with 17 game seasons would make the effort take less time than that

Right?
