Recommended Posts

NBC....8:10 p.m. EST 30 degrees and clear..

Martellus Bennett (TE) doubtful for the Bears.. Matt Slauson (OG) out

Lance Briggs (B) will play..

Both starting guards are out for GB..but Aaron Rodgers (QB) is 100%

......a GB win puts the Bears four games behind the Pacers with just 7 to play.

Over-under at 50....

Take the over ansd if you have to make a choice....take the Bears and the points

In that case he's 0-9. He went down in that game too. I think he's 1-9 though (won 1 in 2010 when Rodgers was out lol).

This is the most overrated rivalry since Vince Lombardi. Even in 2010 the NFCCG only happened because of the 7-9 Seahawks, the Bizarro Failmary (how is this so forgotten) and the Calvin Johnson "catch."

I always believed the Pack's real rivalry was with those Vikings teams from the 90's. They played the Pack very tough in those years.

Those games were better than the Bears games, but the real rivalry was the Lions. The Packers and Lions met in the playoffs Favre's first 2 years, 1 of which was 1 of those week 17/Wildcard rematch scenarios. And in 1997 Favre and Sanders were coMVPs.

You're right on that, those Lions teams were decent too.

 

I remember hearing about the game they held Sanders to -1 yard rushing.

 

Detroit hasn't won in Lambeau since 1991, I still find this to be a crazy statistic. Favre went totally undefeated against them at home in his career.

they did have competitive game s in the 60s and the 90s but its nowhere near the rivalry the Bears and packers have

the Bears and Packers have been bitter rivals since the 1940s and 50s..

...Its a deep down family thing north of Chicago and south of Milwaukee...

the battles between players and coaches in the 60s, 70s 80s and 90s were classic.

The essence of rivalries is that it doesnt depend on who's good and who's not.

To make a point...the Bears losing by 40 to Green bay on this night could get the coach fired.

Bears-Packers means that much to the Bears

Jay Cutler is terrible, and should be cut. I'm willing to bet that he throws two, or three more picks the way he is playing tonight. I hope the Bears are happy with their 100 million dollar man.

You said it..Jay has guaranteed money for 3 years..They CANT get rid of him..

...This is worse than the butt whipping they took at NE

It's not like Cutler's blowing this game. As a matter of fact, if I'm Jay Cutler I'm smashing those last 2 intended receiver's knees with a bat just to get them off the field. That was an emberrasment to receiving.

Patience you padawan... commit turnovers Jay Cutler will. You also have to ask what the hell happened to the Bears defense?

    • Who would have thought Mason Rudolph would come in for Will Levis? If Will Levis plays the whole game, Dolphins win, IMO.   Plus, Seahawks vs Lions, what a barn burner. Seahawks' D was minus 5 starters with 3 along the DL, the Lions ran on them like crazy, and Goff doesn't get touched, the kind of game he excels when pressure doesn't get to him. Seahawks did fight hard, was pleasantly surprised by Geno Smith, he has been a late bloomer, just like Sam Darnold now.
    • My main concerns with Richardson are his accuracy problems and his injury history. His big play ability relies on his legs a lot which in turn leaves him open to getting hurt. If he doesn’t use his legs as much then he needs to get a lot more accurate. Hopefully he’s able to make it through the entire season.
    • What I need to do is stop watching. I have a superstition, bear with me, transcends sports.   Chiefs' Eagles SB, I was so tense because I was rooting for Mahomes, so I stopped watching at half time when the Eagles were leading 24-14, the rest is history. 2022 AFCCG, Sneed goes down within the first few plays, their star CB vs the Bengals with Burrow boasting a 3-0 record vs Mahomes. It did not bode well for the Chiefs, so I stopped watching. Learned they won by a FG.   Chiefs' 49ers SB, I stopped watching when the 49ers went up 10-0, once I knew the result, I watched highlights.   I love Novak Djokovic, he was down a break and a set versus Carlos Alcaraz in Cincinnati. I stopped watching, he came back, won that set in a tie break and then won the whole match. 2018 Wimbledon semis vs Nadal, he goes down 1 sets to 2, I stopped watching, Djokovic comes back and wins.   Bengals game versus the Chiefs this year, the Bengals were ahead before that defensive TD happened, Burrow had just thrown a TD on 4th down. Stopped watching. Chiefs win by 1.    Yesterday, Flacco barely gets out of the pocket to avoid intentional grounding, Steelers were down 10-17, they were making a comeback. I stopped watching. The Colts won. If I have a favorite in the game, I have to stop cheering for them at some point and stop watching, that is my superstition.    I know what I need to do for the Jaguars game, let us hope it works.  
    • Anyone else watch the Titans game at all yesterday? The same thing happened: young QB gets injured and comes out of the game. They get checked, cleared, warm up on the sidelines ready to come back in but they don't put Levis in again because Rudolph looked better. I'm sure the Titans will say we we're cautious, wasnt worth the risk to put Levis back in, etc, etc.    There is a second option here: Flacco is just better than AR right now and he gave the Colts a better chance to win Sunday.    *I'm not saying AR wont be better in the long run but Flacco looked great so lets not turn this into that conversation please. 
    • Don't know if it will make any impact on AR but the post game interview with Flacco, he said "its just football". Don't over think things, find the open guy and get him the ball. Maybe the "just spin it" analogy for AR is what he needs.
