"A Bears national game used to be 'Must-Miss TV,' complete with sad graphics about quarterback failures and a reminder that Sid Luckman remains the franchise GOAT." Not anymore. Column by Jon Greenberg (still not on here!)

nytimes.comWhat is Bears’ identity? As they showed Thursday night, they’re a primetime teamHighlights included Caleb Williams throwing for more than 300 yards, Ben Johnson making a gutsy call and Cairo Santos delivering a big kick.

The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...

Kyler Gordon is the first Bear since Robert Quinn in 2021 to have 3 sacks in a game. He’s the first Bears DB to do it since Todd Bell on Oct. 2, 1983.

Gordon's 3-sack, 2-forced fumble performance is the second-ever for a defensive back. The last one was Rod Kush who did it for the Oilers on Sept. 15, 1985 (via @stathead.com)

Today marked the 26th time a Bears quarterback completed 30 passes in a game, and Caleb Williams' 83.3 percent rate is the highest of that group. He's also the first Bear to complete 30 passes in a win since Nick Foles beat Brady and the Bucs in 2020. (h/t @stathead.com)

Adam Schefter: He’s back: The Bears are planning to start Caleb Williams after he missed the past three games due to a torn hamstring but went through a full week of practice this week without any setbacks, per NFLN and ESPN.

Here's a construction update for the new plaza at Milwaukee Ave and Logan Blvd. Given how warm this winter is liable to be, we might see a lot more progress before the construction season officially ends.

Absolutely jawdropping to see Epic, once renowned for their engine prowess, literally opening a PR announcement with "Programming is hard. So, instead of doing that, we vibe coded a new Epic Games Launcher" Especially given the dearth of features in the EGS compared to Steam.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Richard “Levelord” Gray. From his legendary work on Duke Nukem 3D to the countless players and developers he inspired, Richard leaves behind a lasting legacy. Rest in peace, Levelord.

Devastating news today. Richard “Levelord” Gray was such a great guy. Like many of our friends, I wish I could have hung out with him again. He was full of life, a gentle soul, and an excellent level designer. He was called “Levelord” for a reason.

It’s almost like it was foreshadowed last week.

3 interceptions nullified by penalties is wild. I think it would be a much different game if those interceptions held. Wild game. Go bears.

The Jets entered that drive with 47 passing yards today. Geno Smith then went 2-for-2 for 72 yards, including a 58-yard TD. They are still 0-for-7 on third down, though. Bears 23, Jets 12

Yesterday's news about Jacob Geller broke my heart, so much that I couldn't stop dwelling on it all day. In an effort to make sense of this horrific news and my admittedly complicated feelings about it, here is my article on the Jacob Geller situation: epiloguegaming.com/what-do-we-d...

Chicago just experienced the fewest amount of September homicides since 2010. We are going to continue investing in programs that prevent crime and save lives until we drive that number down to zero.

That's Case Keenum's first rushing TD since Dec. 22, 2019. It finishes a Ben Johnson fever dream of a drive (you know, without the explosives): 13 plays, 52 yards in 8:04 Bears 27, Eagles 7
