  • Studs and Duds, Staleys:

    Studs:

    #12 19/24 4 TD 0 Int PR: 147.9. A surgical assassin completing passes to nine different receivers.

    Team Defense. Chicago's O has been on a roll. D holds them to 16 points despite giving up a boatload of yards. Holds Chi to just over 100 on the ground.

    Coach Lafleur. Back to back 13-3 seasons. Legit.

    Duds:

    *Sigh* Special Teams, I might say we have an STD, Special Teams Dysfunction.

    Fill in the gaps.

    Stud: Mike Pettine. Give the guy credit. The defense has surrendered fewer than 20 points in 4 of last 5 games. Key move was replacing Kirksey with Barnes as every down linebacker. Barnes has been better there than Kirksey, and Kirksey has had impact plays in a reduced role.

    With that lawless crowd
    While the killers in high places
    Say their prayers out loud
    But they've summoned, they've summoned up
    A thundercloud
    They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

      Oline and play calling kept Rodgers pretty clean.

          Studs

          MTP for his consecutive thread starting victories.

          Hell, one for George for making a Studs and Duds thread preventing Tank from doing his egoisttistist bullshit.

          Rick Wagner at RT. the guys is hurting, but has played the position in a ton of pain. It's great to see a Wisco native busting his ass for the G&G.

          Dud. Tavon A. Secure the ball, make the catch and never give up possession.

            Dud: King (or Pettine): whoever is responsible for soft 10 yard cushions on 3rd and short.

            Bears basically run two plays - the dink and dunk. So why play so far off?

              This. Kirksey seems much more effective with his limited snaps. He had another sack tonight. He's carrying big ticket to the pay window to be playing that little, but at least they found a way to use him properly.

                MVS caught the one deep TD but man oh man how can you drop #2. That probably cost ARod the title for highest passer rating ever.

                  Kirksey always played that second position in his career, not the mike. So it’s more natural for him. Pettine said that a week or two ago. Barnes is a tough dude.

                    I thought King was solid. He missed a tackle and gave up a couple of plays, but made some other plays.

                      The signing of Billy Turner is looking better and better.

                        I thought king was better than solid. First, his top skill is man coverage. He’s considered by most personnel surveys to be a top man corner in the league. Second, his off coverage has come a long way this year. He was breaking hard and making plays from his off looks, finally! It took him a minute to round out his game, but he has rounded out his game to be able to do many things well instead of just 1. He’s not jaire, but few are.

                          Savage - making huge plays
                          Amos - making huge plays and a ton of plays from LB too
                          Jaire - island. Not much to say, but star player
                          King - our weak link isn’t weak
                          Sullivan - skilled from the slot.

                          Our whole secondary is..... in terms of all NFL teams having limited cap space and no one has 5 stars, our secondary is elite. Ever since the zone coverage started clicking a few weeks ago, our whole defense has been elite.

                            I meant in this game. th87 put King in his dud category up above.

                              King played well overall but some of the pre snap alignments have him set up to fail. Whether that's his choice or the play call is a separate discussion but playing 10 yards off on short yardage looks bad.
