Poz:
There are freaking 11-3.
The defense is now averaging 13.6 ppg the last 3 games.
They are healthy. Again.
Neg:
MVS has had golden opportunities to solidify himself as the 2nd WR. Not happened.
AR is still leaving offense on the field. Old habits are hard to break.

+ A Win.
Separate threads.
- Offense disappeared after they went up 21-3.
A couple of throws to Graham and Tonyan up the seam caught my attention. It looks like getting in sync is a week to week proposition outside of the run game.
Gary made some waves today. Liking it.
WORST 11-3 TEAM EVER!!

That offense was brutal. ST and the defense gave them excellent field position numerous times and got nothing to show for it. Has the look of a one and done playoff team.
Beat the bears. That's all that matters. 4 games up all time for the first time ever.
Fuckem forever

Spurts of nice play
Decent running game will help in December and playoffs
Better punt/kick returns

Dropped passes
Dropped INTs
Poor tackling
Gave up way too many 3rd and longs
Rogers needs to step it up
Short punts
Conservative play calling
Can't put away a bad team at home

+ Win
Today demonstrated the importance of HFA. You get a team like SEA, SF, or LAR in single digit cold, it neutralizes the passing game and completely changes the game.
You knew with Hicks back, even 75%, would make it awfully tough to run on. They managed to keep Mack out of the backfield most of the game, which in a game like this is essential.
The offense needs to make plays. They’re there. Rodgers was hitting the target today- can’t short arm that ball. Can’t help but think Lazard is better suited for the deep ball, but he’s a lot slower. MVS better learn how to play in the cold or his time in GB is done.

I wonder if the organization is seeing the shell of AR. They needed to prepare already and have not.

There will be no home games in December the rest of the way.
Wish Rodgers was reading this board to possibly motivate him to get his head out of his ass
The defense is so much better than it has been.
11-3 with a sweep of the Bears.
I'll skip over the offense to keep it positive.

Bulaga had a hell of a game today, but Mack is also set to make about 27 million next year. That's a ton of money for a guy who's been pretty quiet all year
They also inexplicably failed to block him on a critical third-down. 
Sounds like a festive crowd at Lambeau. Glad they are enjoying it.
#Packers fans here at Lambeau Field do not care how close that game came to disaster. A loud “Bears still suck! Bears still suck!” chant as they file out of the gates. Safe to say they’re enjoying this one, and with good reason. Hard to dislike 11-3.

11-3 and there are no style points in the NFL.
The all brake and no gas offense after 2 touchdowns in the 3rd quarter was stupid.
The refs with a flag pickup at 2 minutes 11 seconds to stop clock and then pass interference review with under 2 minutes left? WTF!!!
I hated/loved the 4 and 4 TD call. You can see the culture developing. It's fun.

I would argue his problem is in his head. Poor decisions, not seeing the field well, some poor throws

11-3 football team. My God....
Rodgers has a minimum 3 years left.
Nobody is going to claim Rodgers is the QB he was 5 years ago but anyone thinking they want the Kirk Cousins option at QB is fucking goofy.
Man, can you imagine what this team could do with a solid infusion of talent at ILB and WR? Yeah, that's the good stuff.

The problem is upstairs, not physical. He can still move in the pocket, better than most 36 year old QBs. He is missing throws, and taking sacks from blitzes he isn't recognizing.
I’d settle for the Rodgers I saw in the Chiefs and Raider games

I don't believe his body can often do what he wants to do on the field.

Missing throws is physical. So are the other things.
+ Defense and special teams again played complementary football.
+ 13 pts against. Nothing pretty but somehow did just enough.
- Inability to capitalize on ST and Def field positions
- Short and quick throw offense seemed to give the offense a rhythm, why get away from it the entire 2nd half?
#Packers five possessions after going up 21-3: 18 plays, 9 yards, 5 punts.

Saw something similar posted in the game thread and deserves repeating. Just brutal.

Nah. He still has a rocket arm, and he will still be able to throw a great looking ball at 46. The arm is the last thing that goes for a QB, legs go long before the arm gives out.
This place will be a riot if the Packers make it to the Super Bowl.

Defensive laterals at the end of the first half was a disaster waiting to happen.
Watched the end again and that last play was way too close for comfort to a Bear TD.

The Packers had four drops, including a sure TD by MVS. Speaking of MVS, he has had two receptions for 11 yards in the past 7 games. And, entering the season MVS was touted as possibly our number 2 or 3 receiver.
Does anyone tune in to The Score post game anymore? When Buffone died I kinda lost interest.
I do not get some of the criticism of Rodgers. While he made some poor mental decisions, I thought his accuracy was excellent throughout. The only pass I can think of that appeared off was the one to Tonyan where Rodgers yelled at him to keep running.
From the perspective of throwing accuracy, I saw a different Rodgers than the one described here. He was on target.
- so close to Allen Robinson getting a pitch & scoring on that final play. I have NFI why that Bear didn't pitch it. Thank Christ! 🙏
Packers deserved to win. 11-3!!

Preston Smith completely half assed and gave up on Trubisky while he still had the ball.
