1925 Chicago Bears season
The 1925 Chicago Bears season was their sixth regular season completed in the National Football League. The club posted a 9–5–3 record under head coach George Halas earning them a seventh-place finish in the team standings, their worst showing to that date. However, the 1925 Bears were the most notable team in the young NFL's history to that point—all because of the addition of college star Red Grange. The Bears started slow, just like in 1924, starting the season with two ties and a loss to Green Bay (the Packers' first win ever over the Bears). The Bears regrouped, however, and won 6 of their next 7. More importantly, the college season ended in mid-November and the Bear's owner Halas signed Grange. Grange was under contract but did not play on November 22 as the Bears defeated the Packers in a rematch. When Grange did suit up for his first game on Thanksgiving Day against the Cardinals, an estimated 39,000 showed up to see a 0–0 tie. (A large crowd at that time was about 10,000 fans and most games had less than 5,000 paying customers). That was just the beginning of 7 games in 18 days for Grange and the Bears, most to enormous crowds. Over 70,000 showed up on December 6 to see the Bears beat the Giants at the Polo Grounds—this was by far the largest crowd to see a professional football team and the gate receipts saved an ailing Giants franchise. By the end of the whirlwind football tour, the Bears were exhausted and feebly dropped their last three games, only scoring 6 points total. Even the lowly Detroit Panthers easily defeated the mighty Bears. Still, Chicago's success spurred by Grange put the NFL on the "map" and may have saved the league from an early demise. |
2006 Chicago Bears–Arizona Cardinals game
On October 16, 2006, during the sixth week of the National Football League (NFL) regular season, the Chicago Bears American football team defeated the Arizona Cardinals, 24–23, at University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.

This game is the first game in which the Bears won after trailing by 20 or more points since 1987 (they defeated the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 27–26). According to the Elias Sports Bureau, it was the first win in Bears history in which they trailed by at least 20 points in the second half, and the Cardinals became the first team in NFL history to lose consecutive games in a season after being ahead by 14 or more points at the end of the first quarter in each of their games. The Bears also set an NFL record for the biggest comeback without scoring an offensive touchdown in league history. Cardinals quarterback Matt Leinart became the first quarterback in history to throw at least 2 touchdown passes in each of his first 2 career starts. The last time a team won after committing 6 turnovers was over 20 years prior. |
