bears, phase 2

LOL.  I have to admit, I am a big fan of sloths.

They're faster than Mc.

This may actually be a game to play ultra-conservatively and let the defense try to win it. I know that's risky for a Dom Capers-coached defense, but the last thing you want is for the Bears to win a game where Trubisky has 4 completions and they get 150 yards of total offense (like they did against Carolina).

Unless we are tanking like Boris suggests. Then go 5 wide and sling the ball all over the field.

Packers are a 5 point underdog in Chicago. Last month in Green Bay, minus both of their offensive tackles the Packers were a 7.5 point favorite. If Bak and Bulaga had played, you'd figure they'd have been favored by double digits.

Rodgers is worth about 12 points on the spread? Seems about right.

The Packers will not tank...j

I was thinking the latter. What is there to lose?  Fk it, let it rip.  As bad as Hundley is, I still have more faith in our O than I do with the D.  

Travathon missed practice with "sore knee" yesterday.  Wonder if he sees the field Sunday.  Might not be feeling up to it.

Hoping to see some progress on Sunday, but this starting to feel like 2005, except Samkon Gado is playing quarterback now.

so, that whole all-time series lead....

This is a winnable game. Bitch Trubitchsky hasnt done anything better than Hundley and has less weapons. They both have around 500 passing yds and a crappy qb rating.

I really wish one of the veterans would take some leadership of this sinking ship. We should see if the team has mailed this season in on Sunday.

drop this one and thats the final nail. curious what it would take to see Callahan come in.

An injury.  Have you not gotten to know MM well enough by now?

If I were MM, I'd have Hundley on a pretty short leash, given what he's done so far. It's hard to believe that Callahan is a whole lot worse, and might even be better. At least Callahan seems to be able to stay in the pocket to find receivers. My fear is that MM's pride will keep him from making a switch no matter how bad Hundley plays.

This. We do what we do.

Insanity is defined as? 

Maybe they should trade for that 27 year old guy that the Packers let go.

I'd love to see Taysom Hill.
Pack should have offered a 7th to the Saints when they were in town.

Absolutely love the first post H5. 

I'm thinking a bomb to Randall Cobb with :10 seconds left in the 4th quarter to win it. 

Last time Packers were this big of a dog was in New England with Matt Flynn at QB. (-11) Yes the Packers lost but covered. 

I expect huge things from the Packer special teams.  Heck, they don't have to spend any time practicing punt returns and barely any on kick-offs.  The other aspects of their game should be awesome.

I think we'll get a freak win.

Do yah want some of my coffee?  It's pretty good.
