I was about to throw something through my TV, so I had to run the game off. That was truly a Grossman like performance. I had to keep double checking that the "6" wasn't actually an "8". Very disappointing.

Both quarterbacks looked like shit IMO.
Rodgers pulled it together briefly for one long TD pass, but Cutler had a single string of good throws too.
But other than that, they sucked. Lucky for me, my fantasy opponent was starting Rodgers ;D

Neither qb looked good, but Rodgers was under a lot more pressure than Cutler. What's Jay's excuse? And when will he start trying to pregnant dog and moan his way out of Chicago?

Wasn't that an on-the-field call, as the players thought the Pack had 12 men on the field?
Even so, that would be a huge risk, to have that kind of option in the players' hands.

From what I read from the post game press conference is that Lovie won't say who called it, but he is accepting the blame for it.

Not sure what to think of that, but that was a stupid ass decision.

I don't think Lovie was real smart with his challenges either.

As such, they had no timeouts for the last drive.

Perhaps that was a factor in Cutler's 4th interception of the day...maybe trying to force it a little?

GO PACK GO!

It was stupid even if there were 12 men on the field since they'd only get 5 yards off the penalty and needed 11 for a 1st down. They should have just punted and been done with it.

The thinking is that it's a free play, just as if the D was offsides. Still too big a risk, IMO. Particularly when you have a dominant defense and the opposing offense has shown nothing.

I know Cutler (and the Bears' long snapper [laugh]) had a bad night, but Jay did help to put the team into position to win the game.  The Bears had taken the lead with ~2:30 remaining in Q4.  If the Bears' secondary hadn't blown the coverage on Jennings, Chicago could have very easily picked up the victory.

From where I sit, it really doesn't matter who won this game - both teams are in our division.  It's just always a better Sunday when the Packers lose.   [thumbsup]
