Handley had a QBR of 110, much improved
72% completion today, so yes, he missed a lot of reads.
With the lead, and not against prevent D in mop up time, Hundley had a perfect QB rating in the 4th qtr.
Yards, but few points. We've seen this from a Capers D many times.

Hopefully he takes what he did in the 4th quarter and moves forward with it but I dont have a lot of hope. The lack of game awareness was what drove me crazy the 1st three quarters and I am not sure you can teach that. If he does not have that now then I am not sure he can get it. When he rolled right and had 20 yards to run but chunked it out of bounds was mind boggling. I will cut him some slack tho because his Hammy may have been bothering him at that time. But the time out after trying to catch them offsides when he could have just let the clock run out was totally lack of awareness. Not seeing the safety blitz after setting up in the pocket was troubling and God the checkdowns when they need more than two yards. McCarthy swears Hundley is smart enough but time will tell. After all Jed Clampett thought Jethro was a savant.
There is no schedule/time table for when the game slows down for a player. And, it can happen in an instant. Did we see that yesterday? Maybe, maybe not. What I liked though is that when they needed a play in Q4, Hundley made them (with Adams). CHI defense is not a push over, it was a road game, against your #1 divisional rival.
Stack success.
It's maddening the way he can make throws like the two to Adams in the fourth and the three-in-a-row in the first Q, and then be so unaware and scattershot in the rest of the game. It's like he's... a first-year starter or something.
The light started to glow in the fourth for Hundley. Maybe a little success and confidence was what he needed to help him relax and play better. Hopefully, he can apply it going forward.
Big reason for the win, and the difference in Q4.
3rd down efficiency: GBP 7-16-44% (50% in 2nd half), CHI 4-14-29%
4th down efficiency: GBP 1-1-100%, CHI 0-1-0%

Ya Mike, not so much...
Rob DemovskyVerified account @RobDemovsky 1 minute ago The Packers ran three "wildcat" plays with Randall Cobb rushing after a direct snap. The plays went for minus-1, 6 and 3 yards.
Those were all after Jones went down, right? I wonder if those were somewhat of a response to the RB situation? And, as was mentioned yesterday, do we continue to see this with Cobb throwing a pass at some point?
+ Getting to listen to Dan Hampton blowing a gasket. It was hilarious. There were points where he couldn't even get words out.
He is on a show on Fox Chicago at 10:00 on Sunday nights called The Final Word.
With the Bears down a touchdown and needing the ball back, Jamaal Williams -- the Packers' third-string running back -- on second-and-4 took the handoff and standing right in front of him was 2016 first-round pick Leonard Floyd.
Williams shook off Floyd and then carried him like the Bears' linebacker was his little brother, before running over Kyle Fuller, who had an absolutely dreadful day.

I think he can make some difficult throws when he knows where the ball is going before the snap. The two throws in the 4th quarter were strong and decisive. A lot of his previous throws were almost defensive.

I hadn't listened to the Bears post game since Buffone died. Listening to Hampton and OB now. Awesome!
+ it was a win, over the bears no less.
- what the hell was davis doing catching a punt in his own endzone??
Exciting game. Was anybody's to lose right to the end. With that said we are at a lesser minus than Chicago.
This is what Roger hoped for. A way to have weak teams appear less inept.

Practicing?
The lack of game awareness was what drove me crazy
You mean the timeout followed by the delay of game penalty? That sounds like something the Factory of Sadness would do.
