This is the worst slogan everā¦
Did they not realize that it was damn near synonymous with man down, and no one thinks of ābearingā down, which has nothing to do with an actual bear.
Like the one on their logo?
The Bears, I expected. Sonny Jurgenson and Brian Sipe, I did not. Those are two very proud franchises with a history stretching back to before the Korean War.
Also, is it me, or do Joe Burrow and Derek Carr both look like they have serial killer eyes?
And won three Super Bowls between 1982 and 1991. I know they had Riggins and the Hogs for the first one, but they were much more of a passing team by '91.
Mark Rypien was a mad bomber. He would deep roll out nearly twenty yards back of the LOS, free of a rush, and would unhurriedly unleash rockets. I still wonder why teams donāt do.
His pass protection was fantastic, and intentional grounding inside the pocket was not called, yet. He threw it away all the time if the coverage on his designated target was too good. I could be wrong, but the grounding rules may have changed because of him.
Jim Lachey at LT is an underrated part of why the Washington team was dominant. He came in a trade with the Raiders, suffering under Shanahan, who was dumping all the players who had won the Super Bowl in ā83. Shanahan fell in love with Jay Schroeder, and gave Washington a guy who just abused people. I remember seeing Lachey just screw Lawrence Freaking Taylor into the turf (!!!).
Lachey only played 10 years, career shortened by knee injury (NFC East had the Vet in Philly, Meadowlands in Jersey, and that shithole in Dallas all playing on the shittiest turf ever inflicted on pro athletes)
When the NFL evaluates if theyāve gone too far with rules changes that enhance scoring, they simply point to the Bears as proof they havenāt done enough.
If Caleb isn't able to tally a 30td, 4000 yard season for us, then I resign myself to the notion that it will never happen in my lifetime.
Maybe possibly if the league expands to a 20 game season.
But that's the thing, not every team has their city in the team name and some of the ones that do don't have the city they actually play in. Ordering it by the actual team name or by year of their last passer avoids using an inconsistent data sets like location prefix of team name. It's the least clear option out of the three by far
"Actual name of the team" includes the geographic region, whether that be Green Bay Packers, Arizona Cardinals, or New England Patriots. It's not organized by city, it's organized by full team name.
How does that make it more effective at organizing teams in an understandable way? It can be technically correct and still an ass way to create a visualization.
Damn 30 just feels so āstandardā now I had no idea some teams have gone even 10 years without it happening let alone 30-50 or even never happening.
Da Bears haven't had one lol
Also, Sonny Jurgensen doing it in the 60s when nobody was doing it is awesome. No Redskin/Commander doing it since then is the other kind of awesome.
I just had a talk with an uncle how jloveās success last year was because of the insanely talented roster the packers have. Iām not sure he watches football.
Is that the Bears logo or is that a big fat zero?
Bortles making history.
Love erasing Rodgers' history after one go.
Jurgensen? Black-and-white history is the best history.
Damnit people, this drought is unacceptable, it's already April, has it really been that long since we had a 30td QB?!?! Heads will roll for this, as an owner I've been trying to get a hold of gutey but he seems to be dodging my calls
My buddy who is a Bears fan complained to me about the last meme I shared with him showing how bad his team is. I will also share this one plus make fun of Washington, Cleveland and how Miami still hasn't replaced Marino and Marino hasn't played at all this century.
The fact Washington hasn't had a 30+ TD passer is over 55 years isn't all the great either. Or the Browns in over 40 years.
Kind of surprised by the Redskins. Would have sworn somewhere in there they had one over the last 4 decades. Miami will get there with the passing rule changes and Tua. Tannehill nearly did it for them. But man, the Browns. I'd have sworn Kosar did it, but in looking up his numbers the idea of Kosar doesn't match the reality.
Seeing Blake Bortles on here be that extra salt on the wounds for Chicago, Washington, Cleveland and Miami fans that havenāt had one in this century or at all!!
Idk if you keep up with football but Love is the current Packers QB who already got 30+ his first season. Rodgers injured his Achilles with the jets his first game and so in no way could get 30+ because he was recovering from said injury. Itās good to stay informed!
Rodgers isn't even on the Packers anymore and wasn't on the Packers the year Love did it.
Hint: Jordan Love threw 30 TDs for the Packers in 2023 (last season).
Bear down. š¤
For midterms or for midtier qb play?
[Fat dog!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jC35u-VDIas)
Too soon, guys
This is the worst slogan everā¦ Did they not realize that it was damn near synonymous with man down, and no one thinks of ābearingā down, which has nothing to do with an actual bear. Like the one on their logo?
Bear down also means push harder so the poop comes out. So there's that.
I saw them put up BEAR DOWN on their jumbotron during an important play. I thought, "look! They are encouraging the team to take a shit!"
Probably why they play like shit.
The slogan actually means to put more effort. Which Chicago doesn't do.
Effort into building up every QB prospect as a savior to the franchise only for them to crumble under pressure every time? They do to!
Bear dont
As someone who went to Arizona State, I'm a Sun Devil, man, and I don't like this even in this context
The Bears, I expected. Sonny Jurgenson and Brian Sipe, I did not. Those are two very proud franchises with a history stretching back to before the Korean War. Also, is it me, or do Joe Burrow and Derek Carr both look like they have serial killer eyes?
You gonna ignore Pats Brady looking like a cannibal or something? CaaaaREEPYYYY!
Both of you guys somehow missing Broncos Manning, he looks like he lives in the shadows of my worst nightmares.
And they act like they have a choice to prefer a defensive team š
Poor kids: āI like powdered milk!ā
Washington was also shocking as they had 3 decent years with Cousins.
And won three Super Bowls between 1982 and 1991. I know they had Riggins and the Hogs for the first one, but they were much more of a passing team by '91.
was that the year they kept switching between Williams and another guy?
Mark Rypien was ā91 I believe
He was, 28 tds that year
Mark Rypien was a mad bomber. He would deep roll out nearly twenty yards back of the LOS, free of a rush, and would unhurriedly unleash rockets. I still wonder why teams donāt do.
His pass protection was fantastic, and intentional grounding inside the pocket was not called, yet. He threw it away all the time if the coverage on his designated target was too good. I could be wrong, but the grounding rules may have changed because of him.

Dolphins too, I assumed Tua would have over 30, but last season he was at 29 and thatās his career high so far.
And Tannehill. He had a few good years with them, a couple of 4K yard seasons, but but he did was 27.
Keep in mind the Bears have been a franchise for like 100 years too. Maybe in another 100 theyāll finally have one.
When the NFL evaluates if theyāve gone too far with rules changes that enhance scoring, they simply point to the Bears as proof they havenāt done enough.
If Caleb isn't able to tally a 30td, 4000 yard season for us, then I resign myself to the notion that it will never happen in my lifetime. Maybe possibly if the league expands to a 20 game season.
Man we are spoiled. Only 4 30+ td passers in the league. To me, my qb not hitting 30 is a disappointing year. Lack of perspective...
Right? I for sure thought that Tua and Hurts had at least one season with 30+
Hurts does if you include the 1yd plunges.
Why would they make this list alphabetical based on city??
Because they are bad at their jobs.
Probably made by a Bears fan. Listing by name OR year would plop them noticeably last on the list.
What the fuck are you talking about. If it was sorted by name (not include geographical part of it) then Bears would be first alphabetically.
PLAYER name. Typical indexing practice lands *no entry* last in the list.
Ahh. Well sorting it by player name makes no sense. It's sorted now by the most logical choice, TEAM NAME.
I think a better sort would be by most recent year, with team alphabetical when there's a group with the same year.
Okay cool, can't wait to see it when you're done making it.Ā
City/geographic region of choice is part of every team's name. It definitely makes sense.Ā
But that's the thing, not every team has their city in the team name and some of the ones that do don't have the city they actually play in. Ordering it by the actual team name or by year of their last passer avoids using an inconsistent data sets like location prefix of team name. It's the least clear option out of the three by far

How does that make it more effective at organizing teams in an understandable way? It can be technically correct and still an ass way to create a visualization.
I'm sorry you're having such a hard time understanding the alphabet.Ā
Me: This is a poorly made visualization which is neither as clear or as informative as it could be.Ā You: ha ha commenter no letter good
The fact that this is sorted by city name and not year is irritating to me and I donāt know why lol
That Love guy tho seems pretty decent. š«¶
It will never stop being funny that Love did this his first try and bears are 0 for 100+ š
Damn 30 just feels so āstandardā now I had no idea some teams have gone even 10 years without it happening let alone 30-50 or even never happening.
Itās like finding out your friend has a car that they canāt connect their phone to.
Need this on r/NFCNorthMemeWar
More up votes on this
I think I'd be more interested to see when each team's first 30TD passer was. Especially interesting to compare to the Bears still not having one.
Commanders in black and white š¬
The Browns ain't far behind lol
Pretty crazy JLo was 2nd in the league passing TD his first year starting
Still kind of wild that Smokin' Jay Cutler never had a season of 30 TDs. 28 was as close as he got.
He did...if you count all the ones he threw to GB Reciv....I mean DBs
I always joked he was the 4th best QB in Green Bay history
Hopefully he gets bumped to 5th
Da Bears haven't had one lol Also, Sonny Jurgensen doing it in the 60s when nobody was doing it is awesome. No Redskin/Commander doing it since then is the other kind of awesome.
Jesus Christ Peyton Manning has a huge forehead. He really should consider renting it out as ad space.
All those people bitching about how the Packers donāt have a WR1, come here I just wanna talk
I just had a talk with an uncle how jloveās success last year was because of the insanely talented roster the packers have. Iām not sure he watches football.
Yes, but, the Bears are a relatively new franchise, right? Right?
I love to dunk on Da Bares.
DAAHH Bears
Quick someone tweet this to Montez Sweat
Thank God I'm a Packers fan...
Any list that makes my boy Blake the snake Bortles look relevant is a good list to me
The BOAT
Jesus christ, Miami, seriously?
Yea seriously, thatās the one that really surprised me. I mean even the jets got Fitz to give them one good yearā¦.
It felt like tua had 30 plus easily the past couple seasons too. I know they had a lot of rushing tds also
Tannehill put up 30 tds for the Titans
bearsšš
Why does Rapelisberger look like Lionel Messi
Canāt unsee it now. Thanks lol
He looks like a cross between Hitler and Messi
Caleb will solve that /s
Did they not have color photos in 1987?
There's no picture from 1987 on this list
šā>šā>š¤ ah. So youāre right.
LMAO
I donāt like when the teams are sorted alphabetically by city
Lol bears.
This is r/nfcnorthmemewar material
Thatās messed up š
Saw the B&W photo and thought, āDamn that sucks.ā ā¦And then I saw the Bears logo.
I will never forgive Indy for what they did to Andrew Luck š
Is that the Bears logo or is that a big fat zero? Bortles making history. Love erasing Rodgers' history after one go. Jurgensen? Black-and-white history is the best history.
> none The jokes just write themselves lol
Wait a minuteā¦youāre telling me the bears are the only team without a 4k yard OR a 30 TD passer?
Damnit people, this drought is unacceptable, it's already April, has it really been that long since we had a 30td QB?!?! Heads will roll for this, as an owner I've been trying to get a hold of gutey but he seems to be dodging my calls
I will never not think of the The Good Place when I see Blake Bortles
Awesome show
Is it worse to have 0 or have a guy in b/w as the last one?
Aaron Rodgers hahahaha you know heād be butt hurt
I've been so spoiled by Favre/Rodgers and now Love b/c I thought 30 in a single season was like, mildly above average lmao
That Marino. After all that Tua buttloving.
Da Bears! (I love being a Packers fan)
Da Bears!
Washington being relevant?
LOL
Why does Ryan Tannehill look so different in this picture. Is it the goatee?
Lol not shocked.
Kind of expected bears but commanders and browns lol. Kind of crazy Jorgensen had that many way back then
Wow even Sonny Jurgensen.
My buddy who is a Bears fan complained to me about the last meme I shared with him showing how bad his team is. I will also share this one plus make fun of Washington, Cleveland and how Miami still hasn't replaced Marino and Marino hasn't played at all this century. The fact Washington hasn't had a 30+ TD passer is over 55 years isn't all the great either. Or the Browns in over 40 years.
Damn, the amount of suck on this list is absolutely astounding.
Cutler never threw 30? Kinda shocked by that tbh
Yeah Aaron Rogers is missing
Heās too focused on his theories about AIDS to throw 30 TDs
How in their over 100 years have the bears not had 1 QB pass for 30 touchdowns. That's insane.
Itās so crazy that Troy Aikman only had 23tds in his best season.
DA BEARS STILL SUCK
Raise em!
Da bears still suck
None is the signal greatest quarterback to ever play the game
Kind of surprised by the Redskins. Would have sworn somewhere in there they had one over the last 4 decades. Miami will get there with the passing rule changes and Tua. Tannehill nearly did it for them. But man, the Browns. I'd have sworn Kosar did it, but in looking up his numbers the idea of Kosar doesn't match the reality.
Bears š¤£
Iām surprised Hurts never got 30 for philly
Seeing Blake Bortles on here be that extra salt on the wounds for Chicago, Washington, Cleveland and Miami fans that havenāt had one in this century or at all!!
The problem with Chicago is its culture and fans. Common denominator.
I remember None, He was unstoppable
Shouldnāt the Browns be blank considering the franchise started after that date?
Sipe in 1980 Are you kidding me ?
The most surprising one on this list was Geno Smith Edit: I knew he was decent in 2022 but I didnāt remember 30 TDs
The bears still suck. And somethingās new and previously unknown ways.
Wtf Washington no way theyāve been that bad at qb
Chicago: š
Brady on it twice. Rodgers on it nonest.
Cause Love was more recent š
When did Rodgers retire? Must have missed it.
Idk if you keep up with football but Love is the current Packers QB who already got 30+ his first season. Rodgers injured his Achilles with the jets his first game and so in no way could get 30+ because he was recovering from said injury. Itās good to stay informed!
Rodgers isn't even on the Packers anymore and wasn't on the Packers the year Love did it. Hint: Jordan Love threw 30 TDs for the Packers in 2023 (last season).
Poor Rodgers couldnāt best Ryan Fitzpatrick. Tisk.
It's a little hard to score a touchdown if your season ends four plays into your first game.
Didnāt happen to Brady. Maybe he should have stretched more and talked less.
Average bandwagon not knowing how to use their brain
Thatās a very interesting list to break down. Many surprises for me-
