| 0:08.5 | Welcome to Dan Bernstein Unfiltered. I'm DB. That's Matt Abatacola. We are brought to you in partnership with My Bookie. |

| 0:29.4 | There was an analysis that was published just recently at CBSSports.com. |
| 0:35.5 | This just came out about an hour ago, and it essentially is using |
| 0:40.4 | the NFL trends that dictate who makes it to the Super Bowl and who wins the Super Bowl to |
| 0:47.3 | decide who the real contenders are and which teams are not. And I'd have to say it's bad news if you're a Bears fan right now. And it's |
