6red zone trips for Rodgers, 1 td against the worst defense in the league. 3ints, a fg and turnover on downs

We won't get more than 1 or 2 wins the rest of the way, top 5 pick is likely.

A wr acquisition this week wouldn't have fixed all these issues

True, but everyone has been saying they just needed one spark. It might have been nice to send a message that they're at least looking for that spark rather than going out every week and thinking something would change by doing the same exact thing. Far too many issues right now on this team, but I'd rather see guys who have something to prove. Jamaal Williams is on a shit team and he ran his ass off today like he always has. This team needs effort guys going forward.

But rodgers said he was the most consistent player in camp??!?!

He's consistently running the patterns incorrectly?

They moved  the ball almost at will all day even wit the supposedly shitty receivers but the player that was once an mvp, ain't anymore.

Anyone rooting to lose to the Vikings and Bears to get a better draft pick...

I got nothing.  Nothing is bad enough for that mentality

If it doesn't get any better, I hope Rodgers doesn't even play in Chicago. He is going to get so much abuse from the fans and players for his "I own you" crap.

Hell, that's a damn good reason TO play him IMO.  He shouldn't be shielded from that at all.

Yup, deal with it.

The only reason to bench him now is if the thumb is worse than reported.   I would like to just see what we truly have with Love though.  Even if it's bad.

Rodgers is done as well.  So glad we held onto him at 50M this year and he got owned by a historically bad defense today. But I’m sure he’ll deflect and blame it on someone else.

Hell, they have some decent players on the roster.  Perhaps they pull a 1999 San Antonio Spurs and tank and end up with the 1 overall pick and get a Duncan like player at QB.  

It’s about being practical and pragmatic.  They have a window of opportunity to flat out suck so go ahead and do it.  Let Rodgers retire or trade him and start over next year.  It’s a strong QB class so the more you suck the better off you will be come draft time.

Then again, go ahead and root for them to win 6-7 games which means zilch and end up in the middle of the draft.  And play just good enough for MLF and Barry to keep their jobs.  Sounds like a brilliant idea.

Tearing it down is the only option right now.  They doubled down on stupid twice this year.  First was not trading Rodgers and second was not being sellers at the deadline.  Don’t make it a trifecta of ineptitude by winning a few pointless games.

Yes continue shielding and coddling him.

Show me someone hoping we lose and I'll show you a loser.

IT IS TIME TO SIT #12.  I would have felt horrible if  ♥️  had 3 INT’s but #12 having them, just unacceptable!!!!!!

I'll probably take a beating for this but AR is not the AR of last year. It's obvious something happened. Some of those throws he made today woild have been completed, would have been better or wouldn't have been thrown at all last year. There are flashes of the old AR but they are far between now. Maybe it was Just Adams leaving but it seems the spark is dwindling.

Oh it’s OK Pakrz.  You can still be a fanboy for your hero Rodgers while he fades into the sunset.  

MVP my ass. Anyone voting him team captain should be kicked off the team.

Name call all you want.  I called it weeks ago. This team is DOA and Saint Rodgers is exhibit A of what is fucked up with this team.  

I’ll go a step further.  Perhaps Davante Adams was more important than we thought and he wanted nothing to do with 12.  Maybe he knew something we didn’t lol.

Why should you take a beating for this?

Rodgers fanboy?  You couldn't be more wrong.  He is a 4-time NFL MVP though and I find it hard to believe he suddenly forgot how to play football.

I pointed you out for a reason.  You lather up and bathe in negativity.  You repeat the same nonsense over and over again.  GB sucking is your wet dream and you can't get enough of it.  

You brag about how you didn't waste three hours watching a football game yet you spend 10 times that pooping on a message board.

You're the same clown that went on a rampage stating that you were leaving X4... and then started posting again almost immediately.  You sir, are a first class dipshit.  

Pakrz and Tschmak are both right.

Congrats

Ain’t no stopping them now, eh Pakrz?  

Keep it real man.  You be you.  I think I’ll sleep OK tonight.  Peace.

He's been that way all year. Partly not having #17, partly the oline being a sieve. And partly because he hasn't given a damn about his mechanics. Many throws have been sloppy and off the mark, in particular outlet throws that should be no brainer completions that he's made difficult for his targets. He's as much to blame as anyone else on the offensive side, and it looks REALLY bad when he's screaming at the result of the play that had more to do with his end than anyone else. The body language on this team has been shit all season, and not just him, but it filters down from him. The old 12 shows up every game, but it's been less and less with each week, and even when they put good drives together, which were numerous today, they can't finish. Unfortunately, his price tag is such that he will bear the brunt of responsibility. He looked more like Bert in this game than I could ever have imagined he would. Every era comes to an end, whether we as fans are ready for it or not.

Oh there will be a chorus of 60,000 chanting "we own you" and even the guys calling the game will chuckle.

Ummm, despite his shitty performance today, and most of this season, he still “owns” the Bears. The Bears fans can chirp all the want if it makes them feel better. Doesn’t change anything.

Rodgers did not 'own' anyone today, or this season. 

He needs to "own" his shitty play.

Suspect the film review will show the play of the $50 million dollar man to be much worse than it appeared live.

Jesus. That's about as blatant a fuck you, I'm not throwing to you as you will see.

That's down right horrible.

Favreian.

Something seriously off with Rodgers.

? Out of sync with/doesn't trust WRs ?

? Out of sync with/doesn't trust the play calls ?

? Thumb is worse than all are letting on ?

I don't think it's the thumb.

I think it’s his head

Somebody posted symptoms of bad Ayahuasca trips and side effects somewhere.  I don't know anything about AR's relationship with it, what he took, now much or how often.  But if it has anything to do with how bad he is playing, especially all the questionable decisions and missed open receivers, that'd be one helluva ignominious way to close a career by your own hand.

Sure didn't seem to hurt him in 2020 and 2021.

He had taken it before 2020?  I have no idea.

My post was referring to another post that listed later side effects or lasting neurosis from taking the drug, not its immediate effects.  I think it's safe to say he's not drinking it 4hrs before a game.

For fucks sake.   Go watch reefer madness and burn yourself with a cigar for that urge to masterbate that needs to be repressed.
