OFFICIAL Game Day Thread: Bears @ Packers

[MadScientist]

Cuttler with a QB rating of 43.17, right in the Bears' QB's normal range.

Well, Rodgers finally got his fourth quarter come back.

Holy crap, that was closer than it needed to be. Thank you Jay Cutler, the 4 INTs really helped.

The swing of emotion from "bears knocking on the doorstep with ~3 minutes to go" to "the Jennings TD" to "Cutler's last hurrah" was just amazing. I'm seriously hyper right now.

Watch the DVR or Tivo, you will see that the WR's quit on routes or just plain out ran the wrong routes. Learning curve with our young WR's, but I think they will get it together.

Your front seven showed a lot. It will buy you some time.

Maybe trade a 2 or 3 next year for a RT this year. Barbre was horrible.

Nothing like a knee jerk reaction.

Tauscher is still sitting their rehabbing,

[Packers4Glory]

UGH I Hate those damn squib kicks!

You would've rathered Hester touch the ball?

I'll take the squib, thank you very much.

They took Hester out. Mason had been kicking into the endzone all game. bears were getting out to the 22-30 yardline. I have more faith in the ST than too give the bears a short field to work with..but it worked out in the end.

1-0

Thank god for Dom Capers. Cannot emphasize this enough. Offense was bailed out big time by the D tonight. Whooo hoooo!

Forget about AR for a second ... we do NOT win this game last year.

Not even close. No way do we hold for 3 pts... They get TD for sure last year.

True. The D gave up some yards, but they made plays whenever they needed to. Great to see the ball hawking defense carry over into week 1. The improvement on that side of the ball might be nothing short of astounding.

Would you trust Barbre on the edge 1 on 1 the rest of the year with ARod's health on the line?

Well yeah, is there any doubt? They had 4 turnovers to our zero, and they still nearly beat us. That was something.

[Willard]

Cullen Jenkins is back! Woo Hoo!

[pbmax]

Anyone get a 2007 vibe tonight? Not the final record or playoff run, but good to great defense for most of the game and then the offense pulling its head out of its butt at the end? Just like the first 8 games in 07?

Hester was in for the last kickoff.

The Bears' pressure was the equalizer as far as that goes...

Well, not really... not really equal. We won.

1-0

And even better: Division record: 1-0
Man, that was exciting.

I like it, but who? Who's willing to give up a decent RT after the season begins?

Anybody who didn't appreciate Tauscher before now must realize how good is was to have his doing yeoman's work out there.

He had two better blocks on the last drive than he had the whole first half. He's young and a first time starter. Reggie sacked Aikman three times the first time he faced Erik Williams. Yes, I know, Ogunleye is not Reggie.
