Bears (+7.5) at Green Bay (9-9-18)

[oldunclemark]

7:25 EST... low 60s at cool at at Lambeau Field, Green Bay

Al Michaels Cris Collnsworth and Michelle Tafoya on NBC

over-under at 47.5

 

the 197th renewal of The NFL's greatest rivalry.....Green Bay leads 96-94- 6 and the Pack has won the last 4

 

the '$30 million dollar man' GB QB Aaron Rodgers and new TE Jimmy Graham take on the 'New Monster of the Midway' led by the linebacker gang of four Leonard Floyd, Roquan Smith, Danny Trevethan and all-pro Kahlil Mack.. Rodgers may need Danica Patrick to get out here and block for him as the Packers offensive line has been limited by injury in the pre-season....

 

On the other side of the ball, Green Bay adds Muhammad Wilkerson to the defensive line and they've been steady drafting corner backs for a couple of years now..to plug up a leaky pass defense

Bears 2nd year QB 'My Man Mitch' Trubisky will benefit from 'new genius' play called Matt Nagy, from two-time 1,000-yard rusher Jordan Howard and  free agent receivers Allen Robinson and Taylor Gabriel...…..Every new face is an attempt to get out of last place...

 

There's a lot of people up here who think the Bears will upset the Packers here but there's a lot of people up here who think South Bend is a suburb of Chicago .  Mack has only practiced for a week and Roqaun Smith hasn't played yet at all.   Trubisky played very little in the pre-season because the 'new genius' didn't think he needed to.

 

Bears may beat Green Bay this season but it wont be Sunday. They aren't ready..

Take the Packers and the points

1. So the Bears are looking way better than I expected....or are the Packers just overrated?

[oldunclemark]

  'My Man  Mitch'

 

10--0 Bears early

[buffalo34]

Call a TO, go to commercial, run a play, quarter ends, go to commercial, kick a FG to start the quarter, another commercial.

 

Odds we get a commercial after the kickoff?

[oldunclemark]

  Uh oh...Aaron Rodgers limping off the field

[PeterBowman]

If they keep it up....this Bears D could be very tough.

[Chrisaaron1023]

That sucks so bad. Get better Arod!

[oldunclemark]

Knee injury for Aaron Rodgers....didn't want to see that..

 

….the way he got bent back...I'm worried…. Not good

[oldunclemark]

..wow Mack stole the ball.     Kahlil Mack stole the ball from Kizer..

Just took it

 

This game is over.....Over.

[Chrisaaron1023]

Lol kizer looks so much like hundley it's funny

[coltsva]

Kizer stepped away from his blocker right into Mack. lol

[PeterBowman]

Macks a beast but I'm still glad the Colts didn't give up the farm for him.

Yes he does..

 

Plays like him, too

[oldunclemark]

Mack just intercepted Kizer and scored a TD......

Cancel the 2nd half

 

..without Rodgers..its a mismatch

[Architects08]

But Mack isnt worth two 1sts...... 

[BleedBlu8792]

Mack is ridiculous! The Bears are going to be tough. They made some great additions on both sides of the ball this off-season.

[Chrisaaron1023]

I feel so bad for kizer 

[coltsva]

Kizor must be getting a percentage of Mack's salary. If he's not, he should.

Kizer shouldn't be getting anybody's salary, including his own..He should still be at ND

[PeterBowman]

The Bears D was doing this to Rodgers too....guess it doesn't matter who's about tonight.

I know...With no practice..he's really struggling out there!

at least Rodgers wasn't handing the ball to Mack every series

[Caleb Randolph]

Mack is a freaking monster, he just allows the entire D too play fast and aggressive  it would be nice if the colts had this kind of D-Line. Maybe someday lol

[Trueman]

Adding Roquan and Mack to an already pretty good defense is just such a massive injection of talent. 

It's almost baffling how story book Mack's start has been. Not sure I've ever seen a debut like this.

Only to this board smh

[RollerColt]

Welp, at least my Bears can help ail my woes from losing to the friggin’ Bengals. 

 

Did not expect this kind of outcome tonight, and I hope Aaron is okay... He just got back!

[oldunclemark]

Bears look so much like Kansas City

[PManTheGreatest]

I'm glad he's Okay, too....

...but hes Johnny Unitas if he can rescue his hang dog team tonight

 

Bears look,,.,.,.I almost hesitate to say it...'Well coached'!!

   I like the Bears but I didnt want to see the Bears beat GB because Aaron Rodgers is out

[oldunclemark]

Danica looks relieved

[RollerColt]

Glad he’s back on the field where he belongs. The Pack can still make a game out of it.

amazing how much difference there is between him and the backup..

 

Green Bay. I got 2 words for ya:  Jacoby Brissett

[RollerColt]

Ruh roh. Nagy went too conservative in the play calling there. Can’t do that with Rodgers firing up.

[RollerColt]

God Rodgers is amazing. Puts the ball in the exact spot needed.

[oldunclemark]

amazing.....now its 20-17......and the Bears seem slow and worried..

Yep. Now Mitch is going to feel pressure and that Packers D is going to right at him.

[bluebombers87]

He’s like Tom Brady except he can throw both long and accurate, has watchable commercials, and I’m pretty sure doesn’t eat bee pollen.

[oldunclemark]

You just have to make a play.....Trubisky is being dared to make a play
