Jim McMahon. 25-0 as a starter for the Bears, 1984-1987. Still an NFL record for consecutive winning starts. And done in a time where you could hit the QB. Beat that, Brady.
Where can we find this stat…at first I thought it was incorrect…but then I saw that he entered the game late vs. the Dolphins due to injury in ‘85. Do you have a list of the other games and his starts? I would love to see this. He wouldv’e been a first ballot HOFer if not for the cheap shot vs. the Packers Not sure it’s correct
😂😂 He had one of the best, if not the best, defense of all time. He never threw more than 15 TDs in a season. And he only threw that 15 once. He averages less than a TD per game over his career😂😂
Imagine how frustrating it must have been for Jimmy Mac to go from a pass happy style offense in college to having Mike Ditka calling the offensive plays. MCMAHON: "It's 3rd & 15, Mike." DITKA:"Let's line up in the shotgun and hand it off to Gentry." MCMAHON:"Oh, Christ..."
Ha. I loved Gentry - dude always seemed to get that 1st down on 3rd down running plays. But yes, McMahon was an air-specialist, and Ditka was old school. Plus they had Payton.
How could you not love this guy, what guts he had! A real Leader! And didn't take shit from anybody, including that awful coach they had! The head coach!
mcmahon was pretty damn smart and wom a ton of games us a super bowl.... if he stays healthy dem bears go to at least 1-2 more super bowls ... mcmahon was so perfect for that team
What could have beens are always a tough pill to swallow but I’m willing to bet that guys like Jim Kelly, Dan Fouts, Dan Marino and even Warren Moon would’ve given anything to have won just one.
@@dapunkyqb1679 yeah jim kelly shoulda had 1 vs nyg but not dallas or wash lol! i still hurt over how the 80s bears imploded just bcuz they wouldnt or couldn't replace mcmahon
If Charles Martin doesn't do what he did the bears win 2 or 3 super bowls easily.Jim was great in that era of football.He was 3-0 vs the niners leading up to the 1988 championship game.The offense couldn't get going and I believe Tomczach could've beat them.But it's a ton of what ifs.While ditka and buddy feuding Walsh,parcells,and Gibbs where winning super bowls
@@dapunkyqb1679 😎 He was just a little thirsty and they had the beer in the limo, Why would they have it in there if they didn’t want anybody to drink it? 🍺
Just think, if any other quarterback that has passed through Chicago had half of his heart and intelligence, we wouldn’t still be talking about him. Until then, like it or not, he set the bar for that franchise that nobody has even come close to since.
Hands down he was the better QB in that time in the whole NFL he was better then elway Montana Marino Montana hands down if he could've stayed health they would've won 3 mabey 4 more Superbowls
