The Bears rallied from a 23-3 deficit thanks to two defensive touchdowns from Mike Brown and Charles Tillman and a punt return touchdown from Devin Hester. Neil Rackers missed a potential game winning field goal at the end of the game.

That presser had me laughing for days. And that was my introduction to YouTube, where I could watch that clip 10x a day and laugh heartily.

I was at that game. Didn't get to sleep until about an hour before I had to get up for work. Came home and watched that over and over and over.

The second half was an incredible display by Urlacher in particular. Not sure I have ever witnessed anything quite like it from a defensive player.


Seems like a lifetime ago, eh rebar?

All that and to not mention the best player in that game is a travesty.

Urlacher went insane that night. I think he ended with like, 24 tackles or something. That defense was something else.

A charmed season, indeed. Hester being ridiculous, more good Rex than would ever be seen again, and the defense just playing out of their minds.

Little did we know it would lead to 6 more years of mediocrity, followed by a shit storm.

I was at that game too! My very first NFL game at that. What a hell of a day! Best game ever.

I went on a beer run during the game when we were getting hosed and when I came back I think we were tied or winning. I couldn't believe it

That was fun to watch again. Thanks for posting it. The worst part is Theisman and Cornheiser...they are terrible together.

That's the day they were anointed with the NFC Championship and the Halas Trophy Crown right?

I actually remember watching it and I was supposed to call a girl sometime around then, but with the whole comeback excitement and thrill of watching the post-game conferences I forgot to.:yep:

One of the most exciting games I've ever seen. I was living in Florida at the time so I didn't get to sleep until close to 2am. Work the next day sucked, but it was awesome
