Don’t Doubt the Chicago Bears’ Masterplan: An Apology

Chicago Bears shocked everyone by going 4–1 in 2020, even myself. So here’s a statement from me to all #DaBears around the world.

Da Bears, are not an impostor.

All the jokes, slanders, Among Us memes, saying that Chicago Bears is not a real 4–1 team, are not true.

Chicago only lost one game this season so far. It’s true. Facts.

Containing the GOAT and making him reconsider his life decision to leave New England is just one proof.

Imagine having Mitch Trubisky to start your season and ends up with a 4–1 record after week 5. Only true greats can manage to do that.

Come to think about it. drafting Trubisky in 2017 is the best decision a GM could make. If they didn’t draft Trubisky, they won’t trade for Nick Foles. If they didn’t trade for him, Bears wouldn’t stage that great comeback against the Atlanta Falcons in week 4.

Trubisky is their way to get the biggest dick energy in Big D*ck Nick. Such a great Chicago Bears Masterplan.

Defensive masterclass. They bring back their ’85 Bears energy, in the form of the monstrous Khalil Mack.

Ah, Khalil Mack. What kind of praises does this man didn’t hear already. Fifty Deuce wreaks havoc and sends terrors to Quarterbacks around the league is a piece of art that only Mack can do.

Wait, speaking of, you know who’s the one quarterback who Khalil Mack never sacked in a game? Yes, Mitch Trubisky. Again, another Chicago Bears Masterplan.

I was wrong when doubting this Chicago Bears team, especially their defense. The complementary pieces are stepping up, Kyle Fuller and rookie CB Jaylon Johnson constantly make life hard for any Wide Receivers. The offense also transforms into a force that needs to be reckoned with. Allen Robinson II should be up there in the conversation of the best WRs in the NFL right now, and Jimmy Graham turns back the clock to be the New Orleans version of him, his best during his career.

So, this is an apology letter. A pledge statement, if you will. A statement of belief that Bears is gonna eat cheese for breakfast, lunch, dinner, prevents the Vikings to take whatever they want again, and win the battle against the king of the jungle.

I believe that Chicago Bears is going to contend for the NFC North title. Under the leadership of Matt Nagy, refreshed defense targeting to be #1 again led by Mack, and redefining offense, it would be a bloodbath in the north.

By this letter, I want to apologize to every DaBears fan around the world for doubting this team. There won’t be any Among Us meme, or any meme from now on from me, at least until the end of the season. You guys earned my respect.

(But f*** Foles. I still won’t forgive him for what he’s done in SB LII. Give the key under center back to the man who’s never sacked by Khalil Mack in a game again.)
