Conte Can'te.

I spent a good deal of time today trying to establish the level of hostility on X4 if things were flipped and Chicago converted 3 4th downs with the final going for a 48 yarder to a wide open Alshon Jeffery because Jennings and Burnett bit on decoy routes.

I had to stop thinking about it because it was a dark place that actually frightened me.

Not even close to being a "Hail Mary" as the "Hail Mary" suggest a low completion rate - a luck hope shot in da dark.  Nope, that will not work!

According to GBPG, MM was talked out of punting on 4th and 1 from the GB 22: 

 

The drive almost didn’t happen, as McCarthy and his coaches were close to deploying their punt team on fourth-and-1 from the Green Bay 22 with 4:41 remaining.

 

On replay, it appeared Eddie Lacy’s run on third down might have been enough for the conversion, but McCarthy said challenging the spot was not a consideration as his replay adviser in the coaching box felt it was too close and possibly inconclusive.

 

Instead, they went for it at the offensive players’ insistence. Down to one timeout, fullback John Kuhn converted the first down on a 1-yard effort and kept the drive alive.

 

“They were right,” McCarthy said. “It was only one timeout in that situation and playing the high side of playing defense there was probably not the best choice. I think ultimately I may have regretted that decision if I would’ve punted.”

THAT is a hell of a photograph!  AR-Mail Catch, 4th and Great... they both work.  Listen again!  http://www.packers.com/media-c...cd-b218-e25094248fdb 

I like that...but.....I think there were 2 "that plays" in the game.

 

One in the 1st Quarter:  Rodgers' FumblePass

and the other in the 4th Quarter:  4th & 8 Pass

 

We could call them:   "Those Plays"

 

What's so great about that photo is the two Bear fans on both sides. Guy to the left holding his head, girl to the right of Cobb with her hand over her mouth.

 

Just watched the NFL Replay. The two plays before that Rodgers had first Quarless then Jones hope for similar touchdowns. The Bears secondary is even worse than ours at coverage screw-ups....
