Led by coach Mike Ditka, the 1985 Chicago Bears championship football team was widely regarded as one of the most dominant in NFL history. The Bears finished the regular season with a 15-1 record and went on to defeat the New England Patriots to win the Super Bowl. The team released a rap song performed by the players called "Super Bowl Shuffle," which reached Number 41 on the US Billboard Hot 100 list. The song was nominated for a Grammy Award for best rhythm and blues performance by a duo or group, but lost to "Kiss" by artist Prince.
