#3: 1934 Bears
Nobody remembers this team save for the football historians and that’s a damn shame. The 1934 Bears were one of the best in NFL history. It was a roster loaded with Hall of Fame talent such as Bill Hewitt, Red Grange and the iconic Bronko Nagurski. It was also the first team in the history of the NFL playoff era that finished a regular season undefeated, going 13-0. They had every reason to feel confident going into the championship game.
They were at home in Chicago and were facing a New York Giants team they’d already beaten twice that year. Unfortunately the poor weather and savvy adjustments by the Giants ruined their date with destiny. A snowy day made the footing on Wrigley Field difficult. Even so the Bears had a 10-3 lead at the half. New York felt they had to try finding an advantage, so they switched up their footwear, going with basketball sneakers. The Giants rolled off 27 points in the fourth quarter, stunning the Bears 30-13. It was a monumental upset.
