Bears week discussion thread

[RashanGary]

Well, we went from a worst case matchup to a best case.

Colts have a quick release qb who beats pressure with decisiveness and a wicked snap count. They have a really good OL, a good run game and generally do their damage with long drives of taking what the defense gives. An absolute worst case scenario for the Packers defense that basically takes away the big play and doesn’t do anything else particularly well. They also have a top notch defense.

The Bears are, offensively, quite the opposite. They don’t do anything well and will only win if they get some lucky big plays. That plays to our one glaring strength.

The reason the vaunted Bears defense is a good matchup for the Packers is the Packers have a top notch offense themselves. Lazard is back in the fold and should only get better as Rodgers builds that timing and trust back. Davante didn’t seem to have any set backs. Jones is rolling. The OL is cohesive. Tonyan looks like he’s the real deal. Williams, MVS and Mercedes have valuable role playing positions. I see the Packers offense about to peak. And at the right time.

Easy win if I ever saw one. The NFL loves Rodgers and his “mr safe guy” Allstate commercials in the dance. No way the refs fuck us in this one, just like they tried to hand us the Colts game, this one is a low risk ref fuck job.

Packers 30 Bears 13

Another fraudulent win that tries to make people feel better about things giving false hope. Although the Bears defense can be tricky. I just don’t see the Bears offense being able to produce enough points. They have serious QB issues.

Should be an easy win. I’d lay the points here.

I thought it was State Farm commerical with Jake from State Farm.

The Packers “Are The Packers” at this point. They aren’t “Getting Any Better.” We know what they are. It’s like “Exhibit A”, man. They show out a little bit against teams that LaFluer can scheme against their deficiencies and look like All-Stars. If they run into a team that plays Fast/Physical the Gigs Up and they get EXPOSED!!!

All your little Favs become liabilities!!

Friday Night Lights becomes a NIGHTMARE!!!

You would think this could be an easy win, but I'm sure the Decatur Staleys will make it more difficult to win the game for the Packers.

Slow your roll, there. Chicago has a bye to rest up and pick through all the weaknesses of GB on film.

Their offense is a mess - who will the QB be? - but their defense is rock solid and their special teams will outsmart Shawn Meningitis, especially if he sends 'Fumbles' Sheppard out there. Also, Corderelle Patterson is a threat. Khalil Mack and Co. will make it tough sledding for GB, but I think it can be done.
All bets are off with division games, but Rodgers generally is a Bears killer, and Gb is the more balanced and better team.

After the 2nd Minnesota game, I'm not assuming anything. The Packers should be favored to win this one, and as long as they don't turn the ball over I expect them to win a hard fought game. Beating CHI will give them a very big lead in the NFCN, so this is an important game.

[GB-Brandon]

They have the defense to give this offense problems. That’s for sure.

Packers tried to sign Snacks Harrison yet again.

Report: Packers attempted to sign DL Snacks Harrison off Seahawks practice squad

There's gotta be some other husky boies available on the free market, right? I am convinced they can do better than that stubby white guy they have - Lancaster I think. Mean Dean Lowry is not exceptional either.

Surely there are some former SEC linemen who aren't on NFL rosters right now, right?

This a good week to ship Shepherd back to the practice squad and promote Seth Rogers, err, Rohan, err, Roberts.

If Ervin can’t play, use St. Paul as the returner!

[run pMc]

Agree on Shepard.
Poe is a 30 year old DT who is overweight and underperformed for DAL coming off a torn quad last year. The guy is still on the street for a reason -- he's done. There have to be better options than him.
I think St. Brown's got a knee that's giving him trouble. The best returners are shifty and fast... GB's tall WR's aren't both. Maybe they should put Njiman back there - would take 3 ppl to bring him down, plus the image of a big dude returning a kickoff would be gold.

What about dillion as the return man! It would be like bowling pins scattering in front of the legs.

Seriously though I think the bears give us a tough game. They have a great d like always and we have been playing down to the competition of late it seems.

[texaspackerbacker]

The guy we need back there is Valdez-Scantling or maybe Malik Turner.
