Junkyard Dogs
The 1985 Chicago Bears Defense, led my Defensive Coordinator Buddy Ryan, was arguably the most dominant defense ever, at least for one season. The name evolved when Dave Duerson and Otis Wilson barked at some rude Dallas Cowboy fans. Loyal Bear fans started to bark like the two Bears had, at each of the Bears' games. The barking sounded like a junkyard dog and the nickname was born.

Gale Sayers
Gale Eugene Sayers (born May 30, 1943 in Wichita, Kansas), also known as "The Kansas Comet", was a professional football player in the National Football League who spent his entire career with the Chicago Bears.
Gale Sayers also broke down many racial barriers by being the first African American NFL player to share a room with a white player. Sayers was famous for a quote captured by NFL Films, in which he stated: "Just give me eighteen inches of daylight... that's all I need."
Walter Payton
On January 28, 1975, the Chicago Bears drafted Payton in the first round, as the fourth overall pick. Prior to the draft, the Bears were forced to endure several losing seasons and the retirement of the iconic Gale Sayers. Payton's first game did not help uplift the Chicago Bears' mood as he was held to zero net rushing yards on eight attempts. He had his best success during the season?s finale against the New Orleans Saints, where he rushed for 134 yards on 20 carries. Payton finished the season with only 679 yards and seven touchdowns. [1][2][3] Payton was eager to improve his performance. During the 1976 NFL season, Payton rushed for over 1000 yards and scored 13 touchdowns. He earned numerous awards that season, including the Associated Press and Pro Football Writers of America?s Most Valuable Player awards. He was also selected to play in the 1977 Pro Bowl, where he was declared the Pro Bowl MVP. The following year, he rushed for over 1800 yards during the 1977 NFL season, and scored 16 touchdowns, becoming the league?s leading scorer for the season. His most memorable game of the season was against the Minnesota Vikings, where he rushed for 275 yards whilst combating flu. By the end of the decade, Payton received additional accolades for his exploits as a blocker, receiver, emergency punter, and quarterback.
