    The media's excuse is already in place....

    ...when the Bears beat the Patriots today, it will be all about the "weather conditions" and how the Patriots would've won if the weather hadn't been a factor.

    Nevermind all the gushing all week about how many clutch games the Patriots won in bad weather (including the "tuck rule" game). All that will go out the window as the "The Bears Got Lucky Again" narrative kicks into overdrive.

    Any other team wins in bad weather, they're resilient. The Bears win in bad weather? They're "lucky".

    Get ready for it.

    Screw them. As long as the Bears win, I don't care what anyone says. Even the Haters I work around. I got the words for all of them. Ten and three.
    Debate is one thing. Losing love for your country is another.

    So says the White Boy....

    Did they move Foxboro to some tropical location? Patriots know how to play in this.

    The Bears are a fast team, on offense and defense both. I'm not sure this helps them.

    Patriots are 9-0 in Snow Games under Belichick. Shouldn't be an excuse if we won this game. Doesn't eliminate it from actually being used as one though

    Honestly...who cares?

    If the Bears win..its still a win. There is no asterisk next to it.

    Our attitude towards the snow is probably very similar to the Bears- We love it. I think we're 11-0 in the snow. Its nice to see 2 cold weather teams go to war in horrid weather while other pansies have their games delayed to Monday night.
