A Bears win inches them closer to respect from the national media. The question that you see over and over lately is “who have they played?” Good wins kill that narrative.
I don’t know what it means in relation to the division. Not much really. I mean yeah, like I said it helps with putting in peoples minds that we can compete for the division and are for real. Problem is the other teams keep winning. Most people, and rightfully so, are all in on Detroit. Shit, everyone is still in on Green Bay and Minny as well. It’s just a damn tough division and until the Bears beat them their wins are going to be followed with a “But they’re still probably the 4th best team in the division.”
