Until Jim McMahon joined the Bears, Walter Payton was running an uphill battle. The "Punky QB" opened up a sometimes one-dimensional offense with his big and bold brains, calling audibles that would often draw the ire of head coach Mike Ditka.

Since Payton's passing, McMahon has been part of a handful of Bears brethren, watching over Sweetness' son Jarrett ready to help with just about anything. Listen as the two discuss Matt Suhey's pivotal role in the Bears backfield, what went on Super Bowl Sunday some 30 years ago, and who may have had the better spiral on the Savoring Sweetness Podcast.

Walter Payton shared the sidelines with Gary Fencik for all but one of his thirteen seasons. Whether it was a harrowing ride in Payton's Porsche, a tackle that went too far or a half stick of dynamite on a racquetball court, Fencik always remembers Walter smiling.

High schooler Kevin Kelly was in the middle of a late-night workout when Walter Payton walked in. He thought he might be asked to leave, but they trained together instead. And became lifelong friends.

Steve "Mongo" McMichael shares his favorite Walter Payton stories - the first time they met, practice pranks, chasing Jarrett around the locker room and why he considers Sweetness to be the greatest football player of all-time.
