No team is banking their future on an UDFA and collection of waiver wire vets at QB2. Way too spoiled with Favre/Rodgers.

Is this what it feels like to be a Bears fan?
Come on now, you can do better.

Either you were born in 2023, or died in 1957. Anything in between is a Lions fan that surly knows what its like to watch their team lose.

Yes, Bears fans are salty that they aren't the 2nd losingest franchise in the history of the NFL. Good for you, that the Cardinals exist. Or else your team would be #1. Then again, the Cardinals have been around longer...

Don't worry boys. These are still in fashion for you! Should Bears fans be salty that they aren't fair weather, like Lions fans?



Step one, actually win something. Anything. Like the Super Bowl, the Conference, the division or even just a damn playoff game first. Then come back in here and talk trash. Evey other team in the division has done at least one of those things in the past 30 years!

Heck, there's teams no longer in the division who have won something more recently while here!

My favorite is when Hairy announced the Lions as "Kings of the North". Even though they have never once won the North...

This will be so sweet to come back to. The chest-puffery, the online bravado, the dredging up of historical facts! Wonderful to behold!

Lions Fans:

"Stop bringing up our history!"

"Stop posting historical facts!"

The last NFC Central winner? Chicago Bears

Since the NFC North was created:
Bears 1 NFC Conference win.
Packers 1 NFC Conference win
Lion & Vikings, zero

NFC Division crowns:

Packers 12
Vikings 5
Bears 4
Lions...



Today's history lesson is complete!

You didn't miss it. The Lions were never invited to the NFC North Division Winners party!

Only one Super Bowl win? Didnt the Pack have 2 of the greatest QB's to ever play during that span?

Hell, the Bears made the Super Bowl with Rex Grossman for Gods sake. The Packers should have had at least 6.

Won't deny GB crapped the bed way to many times in the playoffs. They likely should have went to the SB 3-4 more times then they did.

You should change the title to "NFC North - how good was your team before you were born?"
