The Bears ended up winning this game 44-7. So much for that tough test.

@mjhartman1986  At the time, it was the largest margin of defeat in Bengals history!

They didn't "fall apart". They got beat by the better team. The Redskins were simply better. That was proven by back to back wins in Chicago in 86 and 87.

@dgendvil Right!

@mjhartman1986 True. Makes you wonder how they fell apart in that divisional game...JAY SCHROEDER!?!?!

Pots and Pans FTW. CBS should've never changed this...just like NBC should've kept their music from 1985.

That's the same Vince Tobin who coached the Arizona Cardinals sometime in the 90's, right?

[HamptonRoadsTVFan]

I take it this would have been the first week of the Pots and Pans intro, right?
