There has been no team before, and no team after, that was quite like the 1985 Chicago Bears. Each week they dominated opponents ? simply mashed them ? until, gratefully, the final whistle blew. Teams entered Soldier Field in fear and left in pain. It was that kind of season.On offense, the Bears would slam Walter Payton at you until you broke and then they?d go long to speedster Willie Gault down the sideline. On defense ? it was an avalanche of navy blue. Speed from the outside with Wilbur Marshall and Richard Dent and strength in the middle with Mike Singletary and William ?The Refrigerator? Perry. No where to run. No where to hide. For the first time, 12 of the original network television broadcasts from the Bears 1985 season are available in this exclusive box set. Witness the Bears dismantling the Dallas Cowboys, see their lone loss in a Monday-Night classic, and enjoy the Bears incredible post-season run ? where they showed a dominance that had never been seen before or since. The 1985 Chicago Bears ? one of the greatest seasons in NFL history ? yours to own on DVD. Buy yours today. | | | Features: | |

 Da Bears 216, Packers tree.Jun 15, 2009
Great NFL films highlights of the mighty Bears. Especially in depth on the greatest team of all time and the greatest running back of all time. Brought me up to speed on the pre-superbowl era and the heyday of Ditka and Butkus.

Steelers 33, Cardnials 14, you heard it here first.Jan 30, 2009
Though he's setting a serious and sober tone, many of us are still basking in the excitement of having Barack Obama in the White House. And with the Super Bowl coming up Sunday, minus any of my teams, it is the perfect time to reflect and another era, when another hero sauntered out of the Windy City. A man perfect for the place and perfect for the times. Back during one of the stretchier stretches of the never-ending Reagan years, that lovable 350 pounder known as The Fridge became the mascot of the greatest defense ever to play football. Never before or since has any single individual more perfectly embodied Maslovian self-actualization. Grotesque yet beautiful, deadly yet innocent, a world-class sensualist, hard-working yet fun-loving.
With a path through Chicago, Denver, and now Boston- all during the better runs of their football teams- I have no right to complain about not having a team in the big game. At least I'll have Kurt Warner to cheer against this Sunday, what with that annoyingly unshakable faith that an invisible man in the sky wants him to win more football games than other people. But up until the last games of the last week of the regular season, the possibility was there that the Bears, Broncos, and Patriots would all be playing in the post-season this year. And, then, in just a few hours, all hope vanished.
But I'll always have the '85 Bears. This is a pretty cool DVD set and a must for any Bears fan old enough to remember the season. You get most of the games, including all the really fun ones, from start to finish as they were broadcast originally. You high-resolution weenies should skip this product; the games are restored from old video tapes. They look fine to me. The dated look just adds to the charm.
The amazing thing is watching these games and actually remembering watching them the first time, remembering where I was and who was with me at each moment. The game in which Dallas loses 44 to 0 contains a Walter Payton run, sweep around the right side, legs kicking out to the side and he seemingly changed directions numerous times in mid-air, without losing any speed. The Dallas defenders crumble in demoralized heaps around him. Tom Landry paces the side-line wearing that prohibition-era fedora. John Madden is at his best, making sure all viewers understand the significance of this game and this season. I remember that run blowing my mind when it first happened, and just how good and how promising it all felt. I could go on and on, there were so many great moments during that year, but you get the point. Anyway, bet TAILS on the coin toss, Stealer's to score at least once defensively, and a final score of Stealer's 33, Cardinals 14.

 1985 bears dvdJan 06, 2009
Great DVD package. Would have liked to have games 2-8-9-10 but can't be to picky. You get a lot here for your money. All Bears fans will be pleased with this. They could perhaps do another box set with the remaining games, super bowl shuffle,Chicago Bears complete history,and America;s game! I will definately buy a future release of these. FANTASTIC! slpoutdoorsman (Sean)

Great collection for Bears fansJan 06, 2009
For over 20 years, the only souvenirs I had of the Bears 1985 season was a VHS tape of the Super Bowl and a SuperBowl XX jacket in my closet. I've been waiting for a DVD set like this for a long time.
There are some minor glitches from time to time due to the original storage media, and there are a couple of rough cuts between snaps where they cut off the sports announcers. However, I'm still very happy with the entire set of DVD's. They only have nine out of the sixteen regular season games (plus three playoff games) but they include most of the best games: the Minnesota come-back game, the 49ers game, the Redskins and Cowboys routs, and the Monday night Green Bay game featuring William Perry's TD.
It would be great if they did a deluxe edition that had commentary, extra features, interviews, but being able to see these games again in their entirety is more than worth the price. I bought the set because I missed the Minnesota and Miami games that season, because I wanted a permanent copy of SuperBowl XX, and because I wanted another look at the 46 defense now that 20 years has passed.
It's a great set - I've been recommending it to all of my friends.
