The Bears again met the Giants in the NFL Championship game, this time in New York.

On November 14 in New York, it was "Sid Luckman Day" at the Polo Grounds as hundreds of Sid's Brooklyn fans turned out to honor him with gifts and speeches. Sid put together a seven-touchdown barrage that assured a 56-7 Bears victory over the Giants and a place in the NFL record book. The rare feat has been matched four times in later years but never broken.

After Bears head coach and owner George Halas returned from service in World War II, the Bears once again met the Giants in the 1946 NFL Championship game in New York. The Giants tied the game 14-14 heading into the fourth quarter until the Bears went on a 10-0 run to secure the victory, 24-14.

The Bears went on to score the go-ahead-ahead touchdown in the third quarter to secure a 14-10 victory over the Giants at Wrigley Field.

The Bears' regular season finale in 1977 was against Giants at the Meadowlands in New York. In sleeting conditions, Bears battled the Giants into overtime looking to keep their playoff hopes alive.

The Bears-Giants opened with a prime-time game in 1987 which was perhaps one of the most anticipated games in NFL history. The game marked a bitter battle between the two previous Super Bowl winners. Backup QB Mike Tomczak torched the Giants defense, completing 20 of 34 passes for 292 yards. Dennis McKinnon electrified the Soldier Field crowd by returning a punt 94 yards for a touchdown, which was the longest TD Punt return in the NFL in 1987. The Bears never faltered and put together a remarkable performance defeating the world champs by a score of 34-19.

The Bears traveled to New York for a highly anticipated game with the Giants on Sunday night. The NFC-leading Bears were down early but came back to put the game away in stunning fashion. Devin Hester caught the Giants sleeping on a missed field goal attempt and was soon off to the races as he able to tie a record 108-yard touchdown return shared by former Bears Nathan Vasher. The 38-20 victory over the Giants would cement their place atop the NFC on their way to a Super Bowl appearance that season.
