"I don't know who the defensive coordinator is on God's football team up there," McMichael said, "but he just lost his job."
Besides Ditka, Fencik and Singletary, the Bears contingent included Hall of Fame defensive linemen Richard Dent and Dan Hampton, Steve McMichael, Doug Plank and Leslie Frazier, who became a head coach himself. Bears team official Pat McCaskey spoke briefly before Singletary followed with a heartfelt eulogy that touched on Ryan's loyalty to his players.

Ryan's family — including Buffalo Bills coach Rex Ryan and twin brother Rob, an assistant — and many friends hugged, smiled and took selfies as they no doubt reminisced about the man and success he built.

"It was great to see Eagles players along with a lot of Bears,Raiders Jerseys On Sale, and not just on that '85 team," said Gary Fencik, a defensive back on that Bears team and a pall bearer. "There were just so many (guys) that played for Buddy."

"The thing I loved about Buddy is that everybody got the same treatment," Hall of Fame linebacker Mike Singletary said during a 20-minute eulogy at St. Lawrence Catholic Church that ended with an emotional pause.
He also motivated players with a gruff but caring approach that helped them succeed on the field and in life. Ryan had his players' backs no matter how tough and demanding he seemed, a loyalty noted and reciprocated by many of his pupils who traveled far to pay their respects Friday.
Judging from the Hall of Famers and Pro Bowlers present, it was more like an NFL reunion. And that speaks volumes about Ryan's legacy.
"There's not enough time to go into so many other things that he taught me as a player, as a husband, as a father. But what he did for me I am eternally. ... in debt."
Standouts from Ryan's teams in Philadelphia were there, including Seth Joyner, Eric Allen and Clyde Simmons. Hall of Fame defensive back Aeneas Williams, who played under Ryan in Arizona, was among a group of pall bearers who carried Ryan's wooden casket from a hearse bearing the U.S. Army seal from Ryan's service during the Korean War.

"It was a number of things. It was all those things," Beachum said. "We're a team that hasn't been given any respect. We had a chance to go out and earn respect today, and you earn respect by winning games, closing games out and beating teams. In the National Football League, it's a pride thing.
