As a Bears fan, I enjoyed this trip down memory lane. Especially seeing Jimmy Mac sticking it to Green Bay.
I’m a Packer fan but I love Jimmy Mac. Good guy and a fierce competitor. I heard he was suffering from dementia BUT they discovered that he had a compressed spine and after Neurosurgeons were able to fix it, his mind cleared up immensely. I really hope he’s doing much better today.
_"I’m a Packer fan but I love Jimmy Mac."_ Same here!
He was a backup for the Packers at one point.
@@korndawggy1801 Oh yes -- I remember him hoping that the Pack would get a big enough lead in the 1996 Super Bowl so that he could get to play.
85 Bears!!!!
Won super bowl with packers beat cheaters from New England
McMahon wasn't the greatest QB and wont be in the HOF. But he was extremely confident and fearless. A winning combination.
He was good,won a Super Bowl.
Modern culture & free agency destroyed him & professional sports.
Jimmy Mac was the best Chicago Bear QB since Sid Luckman in the 40's! Oh Jimmy Mac when are you coming back? You are missed!
I was born in Chicago and lived in Naperville, a suburb at the time of the Bear's Super Bowl win. I was bartending that day. What an amazing work day that was! I forgot that Jim McMahon went up to The Vikings.
Those were the days. I was no Viking or Bears fan but I did enjoy watching McMahon. Hell of a player.
Yeah i hate both teams but mcmahon was the chit
same
Those were the last 2 toughest quarterbacks in the league
Early '90s NFL was so good!
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.
Lol u think Brady's never taken a hit 🤣

Tom Brady did it with healthy nutrition and pliability. Jim McMahon did it Budweiser and Coors Light.
The defense sure helped.
Wait in 1986 ,the season they almost went undefeated, the Bears lost to the Dolphins on Monday Night Football, so how was Jim McMahon 25-0,unless he didn't play that particular game 🤔?
@@GODLETMEWINAMEN Steve Fuller started the game vs. the Dolphins due to an injury to McMahon. He had missed a few games that season and actually came into the Dolphins game very late. In football the starter gets the W or L even if he plays one snap.
Watched this on TV with my Dad when I was a boy. Always amazed that Guliford got so open in a situation like that. And what a throw. Didn't know about the Terrell Buckley comment some have shared here. Fun memory.
That was my first Vikings game at the old Metrodome. What a game! We were in the upper deck, South, surrounded by Green Bay fans. They were cheering alot all afternoon, until Reveiz came in and kicked the game winner, his 5th FG of the day. When he did that, it was like somebody died up there...except for our family, we were cheering big time for our Vikings!
Thanks to my late Dad , who took us to VIKES games for years until he passed away in 2010. I hope that him & my late Mom are enjoying this year's winning team. SKOL VIKINGS.👞💥🏈🤗
As A Bears fan this is heartwarming
Nice story. Here in New Mexico we have to look out of state for pro sports. My daddy and some
Of his cousins were Vikes. It passed down to us children too. Skol… oh and let’s take home the bowl in 23’ vikes!
Lions fan here. I loved McMahon. After he became injury prone, I desperately wanted the Lions to pick him up as a backup. I wonder what would have happened to Chuck Long’s career had he had a teacher like McMahon.
All that guy could do is win.
The Vikings old outdoor stadium was the worst to play in. Sub arctic temperatures.
How bout those Lions??
He got another Superbowl ring as a Packer in 1996, I really wished they would have let him play a rew snaps at the end of the game.
I agree...that would've of been cool!!!.when they went to the white house he wore his chicago bears jersey....because the bears never got to go because of the challanger accident.
@@executenwordusers
Wow really???
Never knew that!!!
@@GORILLA_PIMP thats a wild piece of history!!!!
@@executenwordusers Lol, Just googled 1996 white house packers visit and there's our statesman! Eff the packers. What a way to go out. Thanks Jimmy!
...against the Pats (again), in the Super Dome (again).
Great way to go out.
Jim McMahon. Amazing. If he wasn't so often injured, he'd be in the HOF 100%.
After that slam he was mostly always injured
Lol no, no he wouldn't be.
15 TD’s his best year passing. Never threw more than 12 TD’s any other season. Manning could do that in 3 games. Take Manning back in time and he’s still get 30 Td’s with that team.
Oof. No.
Bro.. he has absolutely no business in the hof. He was okay for a few years, but most of his tape is garbage. He wouldn’t make a roster in today’s nfl.
Wow, I can remember this game, almost 30 years ago. Wasn't as sissified as it is now
Remember the game against the bears? After the game he pointed up to the skybox and and laughed.
@@leroywatermelon4025 yes, he beat em twice that year
First thing that crossed my mind was wow, they actually HIT people back then!
@@nalgene247 knocked their blocks off
One thing I do know is Jim had so many head shots. Many concussions. Now he puts jig saw puzzle together to keep his mind working. Jim is the shit.
I met McMahon once at a watering hole near a golf club, where he played in a pro am. Definitely a unique guy.
Jim McMahon was a smart quarterback with a very strong arm. True competitor.
That was an impressive throw.
Smart quarterback, great leader on the field, Not a great arm.
He never had a strong arm, not by NFL Standards. His arm was decent. He was accurate. He was tough. He was mobile.
@Alex T He’s like Steve Young. Fellow BYU alumni that ran like a fullback, even if he had no helmet on.
I forgot that both Carters were Vikes at the same time. What a duo!
Crazy to think one played at Ohio State and the other played at Michigan.
I remember Jim McMahon when he played for Roy High School in Utah..Losing to West High School in playoffs as a junior but winning State as a senior..Tough guy & a great competitor.
He was my favorite in the 80’s. When he started, he usually won.
And when he didn't start, the Bears weren't the same team.
@@MGAF688 They’ve never been the same. 😕
His 25 game win streak doesn’t even include the games they needed him to come off the bench and win for them.
@@dapunkyqb1679 Would have been fun to watch Mac in a passing offense with weapons.
Even when he didn’t start, he could come in and throw three touchdowns in tgeee passes.
I still can't believe we won this game LOL....I watched this from Max & Erma's @ the Park Hotel in Canton, Ohio. I went nuts lol....in fact a lot of the crowd in the game room area (lots of booths and tables, and 4 big screens showing 3 games & QB1) went crazy as well. What a great memory.
I was at that game. The absolutely stunned look on the faces of the Packer fans at the game is something I’ll cherish forever.
Reminds me of the time I got invited to a Vikings playoff game. I just wanted to go for the experience of seeing NFL Football in a college stadium, never could I have imagined I would see the most iconic missed field goal of the decade 😂 the faces of Vikings fans will stick with me forever too, and the nasty things they said to me in my Charles Woodson jersey 😂
At least you have that one thing
@@AlwaysHini258 well plus this year’s takedown
The guy was a fierce competitor. He was a great QB. People who argue with this simply don’t know the game.
No QB was tougher
All that man could do is win.
I love that guy. Sad he has TBI and is slowly losing his mind.
Lol he was all mullet and crazy release. I'd take 90 % of the starters the game over him in a heart beat
@@bradleynataliedavis4020
How many of those starters have 2 Super Bowl Rings?
HOF QB without question !! Pure winner ! His injuries did him in !
I was at this game. Thank you T-Buck!
1:10 threads a laser through 4 defenders. His restructured shoulder was stronger than it had ever been.
Dude, look at those hits. NFL was a different animal back then.
When I was a kid, he was my hero. As an adult, I can see that he was a warrior.
@@dapunkyqb1679No question.
I was in high school at the time and during that game was in my bedroom studying, then all of the sudden heard my dad cussing loudly because his Packers lost that game.
Jim McMahon's overall W/L record as a starter is remarkable given he's not talked about much.
Doesn't have the best stats in the world but he is what you call a winning quarterback.
His Willie Gault and Dennis McKinnon duo were less than average. Throw in Brian Baschnagel and you always have a fullback or maybe 3 TE's for Walter. No wonder his stats didn't rise until his Charger years.
That black visor 🔥🔥🔥 looked way ahead of its time
Jim always wears sunglasses, even indoors. I met him when he backed up Favre with the Packers, and he told me that his eyes are very sensitive to light.
@@Mike-pm2fc He had a childhood eye injury that was successfully repaired but left him with permanent sensitivity to light.
@@ryanjacobson2508
Wow interesting
@@ryanjacobson2508 he got stabbed in the eye with a fork. I believe
I remember watching this one. Jimmy McMahon was always a character.
My knees hurt just looking at that old style turf.
Some all time greats. McMahon, Favre, C and A Carter, Tice, Jordan, Studwell and Randle. RIP Denny.
I was a huge Doleman fan. He was terror in the flesh.
Roger Craig as well.
reggie white?
Crazy to see how far the 2 minute offenses have evolved
A great way to end it! Saw Jim McMahon when he was playing for at BYU in Hawaii many, many years ago.
Jim McMahon play with the Packers in 1996 he was the back up QB
Hey, i was watching Monday Night Football when Jim Mcmahon was called in to replace the Chicago Bears QB. This young guy, Mcmahon threw two back to back touchdowns. If my memory is correct. Exciting time for football and the Bears.
Jim McMahon my fav
First Qb wit the black visor
Because he had a damaged cornea in one eye.
@@LeonardStauffer thank bro learn something everyday! Damn back in the day when NFL weren’t such pussy
Fuad ruled. Look at all those memorable vikings....Steak, Fuad, Tice, AC/CC.
Man, he could zip the ball. On the run, against his body, and that ball was on an absolute rope.
McMahon wasn't the most physically gifted of QBs, but the dude was ultra competitive and a cult of personality. Loved watching him play.
McMahon owned the NFC Central.
Ditka owned the Packers.
That man took so many hard shots but he was as tough as a $2 steak. Love McMahon.
🤣🤣
F*ckin glory days of football man. Late 80's to early 2000's
That might have been a Packer's DB final game too...wow, what a breakdown in coverage.
Love that dark purple the Vikings are wearing!
McMahon Awesome QB especially when he was a Bear!!!
Mc Mahoney had cantaloupes for balls. With the bears he was unbelievable. Too bad he got hurt so often. He,d be up there with the top 10 of all time .
Mc Mahoney was the man!
I don’t care if I get any flack for this comment, but it’s always great to see the Vikings beat and walkoff the Packers. Skol!
Minnesota born and raised- die hard vikings fan during those years- hated this guy when he was with the bears and then the Vikings acquired him...uffda. What a gut punch. He was good. I admit it.
Totally forgot that he played for the Vikings thanks for posting 👍
Beast of a QB, Jim Mc Man !
As a Detroit Lions fan, much respect for Jim, great game memories in the old NFC central, and always entertaining candor.
If Bobby Layne and Jim McMahon played during the same era they would have hung around and had some memorable parties. You could also invite Brett to the party too.
Lions fan here as well. I wanted the Lions to pick him up as a mentor to young QB’s like Chuck Long in the late 80’s/early 90’s. He was horribly injury prone by that point, but what a winner.
I don’t get why people announce who they are a fan of before praising someone from another team.
@@Ver5587 As a fan of the Fletch movies, let me just say how much I enjoyed you in the Vacation movies.
@@robertbruce6865 haha nice
What a way to go out. McMahon was a helluva football player.
When the NFL was awesome! McMahon getting a bit of sweet revenge from that 1986 cheap shot by Green Bay.
For all the talent, pro bowlers, HoFers, and all pro players they had in their history, it amazing the Vikings don't have ANY SB wins and haven't been since the the late 80s.
Jim McMahon BEAR FOR LIFE!! 🐻 Thank you .
McMircle 2
1st one was in '85
I remember watching this game!
I remember watching this game on my former CBS station WAGA before it became a FOX station channel 5 in Atlanta Georgia
Turn the W upside down and you've got MAGA!!
Enjoyed watching Him being Him.
It just goes to show he still had it.
My “Look Alike Twin Brother “! Go Jimmy Mac!
💥 Jim… Was One Of The Great Ones💥
I don’t care what anyone says McMahon was one of the best QBs the Bears had! He doesn’t get credit, but this shows where credit is deserved!
Jim was 67-30 lifetime in the regular season. (3-3 in the playoffs.)
Jim McMahon had a HOF desire to WIN!
So many legends/ Goats in this game
I'm surprised by how little the fans use to wear their team colors back then. One of the shots must have had a couple hundred fans in it, and there's no purple...and then Starter clothing became a thing.
I turned 21 this day lol. I remember telling my friend it was the best birthday gift ever😂
I like those Z Leader visors way more than the ones that other companies came out with later on. Still have one .
He should b a HOF simply because of the SB shuffle video. 🤣
He was a solid QB for the Bears. Injuries screwed him.
Jim McMahon's Play .. Always Reminded Me of Joe Kapp.
4 years later he wins a ring with Green Bay.😊
It’s crazy to think that a receiver can be left alone that wide open.
Well, as the saying goes... "The only thing a Prevent defense does is prevents you from winning!"
Allow me to introduce you to Terrell Buckley - the greatest athlete since Jim Thorpe!
And as open as he was he almost had to scoop the ball off the turf it was so under thrown. It almost didnt get there.
Buckley let him go because he didn’t think McMahon could throw that far
@@wentasticmathematics1340
Ha TERRELL BUCKLEY!!
Now THAT'S a name i haven't heard in long time wow
Those shoulder pads were so big once you fell down you couldn't get back up without help. That screen pass the RB fell all he could do is just spin in a circle on the ground
Good GB that played for 3 NFC North (formally NFC Cemtral) teams.
Chicago, Minnesota and Green Bay
Had to look it up to confirm my memory but Eric Guliford played in 17 games over two years for the Vikings and this was his only reception.
It looks like he just snuck on to the field to catch that pass. How else could they have left him wide open in a Prevent defense?
@@mylesmarkson1686
Buckley didn’t think McMahon could throw that far so he broke off coverage
@@minnesotajack1 And did what instead? When you're trying to protect a lead in the last seconds of a game, you don't just stop guarding your man, no matter how little faith you have in the opposing quarterback's arm.
Yall I got to ask how damn good was chris Carter? That man was clutch that drive
Back when the NFL meant something
McMahon won just as many rings with the Packers as he did with the Bears.
Would have won more if he had not got injured in or going into the post season each year.
Which is more than Favre or Rodgers, strangely enough
he won as many rings as Favre and Rodgers combined
@@MichaelZorn2 id like to agree...as long as Ditka was at the helm no way...Mike ditka...did the least with the most...
This hurts as a Packer fan. Great come back. I didn't even know McMahn played for the Vikings. I only remember him on the Bears
And a Packers QB as well.
@@davidkuhn3970 Eagles too.
Bears, Chargers, Eagles, Vikings Cardinals, Browns, and Packers
He kicked pecker ass all the time lolol I watched one cheese head get knocked out at a bears game hahaha and then security kicked him out lololol
McMahon and Ditka owned the Packers.
Man, I remember this as if it was tomorrow.
Props to McMahon passing behind that shitty line.
He was going to fin Reggie White, a former teammate he got close to.
He played too hard and is paying the price with CTE. One of the most competitive people ever on the planet.
There was a comment on here somewhere where it send he had a compressed spine and once it was fixed his mind cleared up..?
At 1:48/ 24 seconds left in game, foward progess was stop🤔 before going out of bounds, clock should not have been stopped🤔
I think, years later, he would be with the Packers himself.
Iconic
That's my Grandma's brother. Whatever that makes him to me. I only met him when I was 6, I'm 44 now.
Looks better on his last day than Fields does today.
Fields is the best running back the Bears have had since Neil Anderson--but that's about it lol.
@@thegrandpencil4374so uh can you name any of the wide receivers the bears decided take off the street and and sign for a 1 year deal? Fields is out playing with literally NO ONE.
@@jonisafreak3 People said the same about Cutler. That he had no weapons. But when he got weapons, it was the same story. You'll see. In time, I'll be right about Fields. I don't WANT to be right, but I will be.
He's a great athlete, though.
@@thegrandpencil4374 Really? Cuz he was throwing dimes and darts vs the packers.
Give Fields time
Shoulder pads were huge back in the day.
Our kicker Raveiz wanted to play middle line backer, Jim McMahon a great qb.
probably the reason he was Favre's backup later. McMahon looked so cool with that dark mask, looked weird later that season when he wore a lighter one.
I think the reason for that was cause he had an eye injury when he was young. I might be wrong but who knows
Mac was one of the best QB's to wear a Bears jersey. Hope he's enjoying retirement on a golf course somewhere.
The man!!!
When football was better than now.
The other teams QB had his last drive with the same team. Ended differently.
