1985 Chicago Bears Tame Detroit Lions, 37-17

Greetings, Bears fans. With this being the 30th anniversary of the Super Bowl-winning Chicago Bears of 1985, here at Bear Goggles On we’ll be revisiting the regular season and playoff games — including re-watching them when possible — and posting information about a game each Throwback Thursday as we move closer to the 2015 regular season.

Closing out with a convincing but at times frustrating win over the Detroit Lions, the Chicago Bears finished up the 1985 regular season with a 15-1 record.

While the Bears ended up winning by a wide margin, 37-17, the score was deceiving, as they led by only three points at halftime and six points at the end of the third quarter, before a pair of big plays pushed them over the top.
