Summary
0:00 Bears
41:00 Wilbur Wood
1:00:00 National Championship Game
The Chicago Bears’ season comes to a heartbreaking end at home, falling 20–17 in overtime to the Los Angeles Rams. Caleb Williams struggled with 3 interceptions, but still delivered a clutch, game‑tying 4th‑down touchdown to Cole Kmet in another heroic late‑game moment from the second‑year quarterback.
Chicago’s defense stepped up once again, holding the league’s top offense in check all game, but the Bears’ offense couldn’t match the effort on the scoreboard.
We also take a moment to remember the life and legacy of Wilbur Wood, who sadly passed away.
Plus—it's National Championship night. And we're calling it now: Indiana rolls over Miami.

| 0:09.0 | Welcome to Dan Bernstein Unfiltered. DBU is brought to you in partnership with My Bookie. |
| 0:16.2 | And it is the morning after the Chicago Bears miraculous season has ended. |
| 0:22.6 | And I've been trying to sort of think through, not just the way it feels, but how to how to |
| 0:28.1 | encapsulate what this season is meant. |
| 0:31.3 | And man, the responses, the feedback, everything coming in so fast and so furious, and trying to still keep up with all of the emails |
| 0:41.0 | and all the responses we've gotten through the app |
| 0:43.3 | and everything else. And by the way, you haven't gotten the 312 sports app. |
| 0:46.3 | You absolutely should. |
| 0:48.2 | The words that are in common, and this is also the stuff I'm hearing |
| 0:53.7 | anecdotally and personally. The words that I'm |
| 0:57.4 | hearing to describe the end of the Bears season and with every moment of distance that we get from |
| 1:04.9 | it, describe sort of an awareness of what this has all been, has been the, I keep hearing the word satisfying and I keep hearing the word |
| 1:16.6 | fulfilling. And tell me if that makes sense, that there are some who say, yeah, the game |
| 1:22.8 | itself and the end of the season, losing is no fun. You want to win, and you want to win the Super |
| 1:29.4 | Bowl every year, and you want multiple Super Bowls and parades. And yet, there can also be a |
| 1:36.5 | simultaneous understanding of even falling short of the ultimate goals, what this whole ride has been and from a lot of people |
| 1:49.1 | who are at least self-aware fans i think who are able to to really enjoy their team and |
| 1:56.0 | also keep things in context i keep hearing the the word. That was really fulfilling. That was satisfying. |
