2. Whew! Bears Hold On, Squeak Past Saquon’s Giants!

Mon, Sep 21, 2020

The 2020 Bears are winning ugly, and they’ve already found 2 different ways to do it.  Last week, we trailed by 17 in the 3rd quarter before Trubisky brought us back.  But this week, we LED by 17 in the 3rd before we let the Giants come back on US.  Three unanswered NY scores (including 2 FGs off of Mitch’s 2 INTs) shrunk the lead to 4 with 7:43 left.  But with NY star Saquon “QAnon” Barkley going down after just 4 carries, and the Giants having little else, our impressive 1st half was enough to stave off our abysmal 2nd.  And we advance to 2-0, shocking everyone.  Well, everyone except the Bears themselves, our blog staff, and the courageous and legendary Ruth Bader Ginsburg (RBG, RIP).  As we all remember, the 2 last things she said on her death bed were:  1. Don’t let Trump replace me, and 2. Bears all the way in 2020, case closed!
