I'm glad in a way, we got the shit kicked out of us

[Packers4Glory]

n shitcago....

Just a reminder that you can't take anything for granted in this lg and you can lose on any given day.

This is a young team, an inexperienced team in many ways....It should serve as a wake up call....and I think it will because we have the type of coach I think can use this loss to his advantage.

This is an area I think M3 is very good at, and he will get the team to respond.

I hope he holds Pickett out and anyone else who may be experiencing a nagging injury that makes them less than 100% this week.

This loss could be a blessing, and I think it will.

I agree with that statement 100 percent, we're bound to have a few bad games a year. Let's just be thankful we got them out of the way BEFORE the playoffs, with such a young team the experience just kinda comes as they go and when you're a winning football team like this one it's essential that they work those kinks out before you make your run for the Super Bowl.

the one bad thing is, well maybe bad, is that it was obvious Favre was not too interested in playing yesterday. His body language said it all, and I think the rest of the team picked up on that and came out flat.

I've watched nearly every Packer game for I don't know how long now, and thats the most disinterested I've seen Favre...ever. by a long shot.

He has stated he doesn't like playing in cold weather. I think he has it in his head that it will be a miserable day.

yeah but he has always performed greatly in cold horrible weather.

i kinda wonder if he doesn't think they stand a better shot winning in dallas, esp should the weather be horrible for the NFC championship game. Dallas has a very strong running attack and could grind out the game like the bears did..only better. at least in dallas the packers can keep pace scoring wise. hell i bet in some sick way he wants to win in dallas for once in his career to put those demons to rest...and that 1 game which = super bowl i bet sounds bittersweet for Favre.

I would feel worse about the loss if the Packers had directly lost home-field advantage for the NFC Championship Game. Dallas had an inside track on that one.

They will learn a lot after watching the film and breaking it down with the coaches. Special Teams needs the extra attention, especially Ryan.

Overall, they will return mentally tougher and more committed to excel than ever. M3 will get the guys focused again.

I'm glad they got clobbered just because the game now seems like a bad dream. Everything went wrong - so just forget it.

With winds gusting to 40 mph, Favre is not much of an advantage over Orton. The Bears wanted the game more, and the Packers couldn't press their advantages (far superior passing game.) And the Bears set up their screen passes better.

By losing, the Packers know that their last game is meaningless, and they can adjust their strategy accordingly. A worse outcome would be if they had won against the Bears, bust a nut next week, and Cowboys win out.

It will wake this team up and I actually think we have a better chance of winning in Dallas then we do in GB. I think the Cowboys have a better team suited for cold weather with thier running game and it would also help out their poor pass defense. I also think our offense is better suited in Dallas then in GB.

Cowboys have a better running game and better run defense.

I agree, Packers have just as good of a shot in Dallas.

Are you drunk?

Did you not see how we performed in the cold yesterday?

[FritzDontBlitz]

Optimism is a bad word to some, Brandon, don't take it personal.

[b bulldog]

yes but I am trying to forget it

yea I was optimism before the season started as well, unlike some.

[esoxx]

I'm not at all happy we lost yesterday. Are you crazy? Losing to our most bitter rival. I don't care what was on the line, any time the Packers lose to the Bears it's a bad thing.
I also don't see this as a positive. This is a young team and getting drubbed this late in the year can zap some confidence. This was not a team with a big head overlooking anyone.
It was just a bad day. They lost. I'm willing to move on.
But by no means was the loss a positive in any way, shape or form.
