  • OK, I see the ...

    OK, I see the confusion. This film shows several games. The only Bears game is shown in the last few seconds, and is played in Wrigley. The Cardinals play several opponents and it is not possible to tell who they are from the jerseys, although the Green Bay Lumberjack band makes it clear that Green Bay is the opponent in one game.

    It would be great if one of the games was the famous Nevers game, but I can't find any clue that shows that any of the Comiskey games includes the Bears.

    If that is in fact the 1929 Cardinals-Bears game at Comiskey Park, then it was the Nevers 40-point game, according to the records.

    How can you tell? It would be quite historic if that is true.

    Great video. This was indeed the game where Ernie Never scored all 40 points (6 TDs and 4 PATs. The crowd was between 7,000 and 8,000.
