Just a brutal game to watch all around. Awful play call on the 2 point conversion. Hoping the bears can spoil the party on Thursday in Green Bay.0

Awful play calling! Holy shit, that was Trestman-like bullshit from the coaching staff yesterday. Not kicking the field goal and going for it on 4th down for a team playing 2nd and 3rd sting players...and a team who's shown difficulty getting TDs in the redzone all year...against the best defense in football....ugh! I was yelling at my TV when the offense went back out there!Indifference71 said:Just a brutal game to watch all around. Awful play call on the 2 point conversion.

Then the handoff on the 2 pt conversion....ugh!
So, Martellus Bennett is seriously worthless. The guy claims to be a top TE and wants the money to show it. He's been nothing but below average for the last 4-5 games. He easily drops more balls than he catches. Yesterday he had so many opportunities! That play to him in the endzone where he didn't even put his hands up to attempt to catch it....fuck! Oh, and the missed block on the 2pt conversion. He's only job was to BLOCK, and he peeled off like he was running a different play. Ugh!
I'd be less upset had they gotten blown out. These close loses with stupid play calling drive me up the wall!0 -
Yeah, not going for a FG there was definitely questionable.mca47 said:

I was reading earlier that Cutler audibled to the run play on that 2 pointer but Bennett ran a route instead of blocking. He has been pretty good since he has been here, but no way they should extend him or give him more money. He has to be one of the SLOWEST players in the NFL. He has no burst and always gets tackled right away after he makes a catch.
Losing all these close games has been brutal. Hoping they can pull the upset on Thursday night.0 -
Yeah, the play would have been a lot closer had he read his playbook. If you watch the replay, if that guy was blocked...even a half-assed block...the play would have been a whole hell of a lot closer.Indifference71 said:

Bennett really drives me nuts.0 -
Can't wait for Thursday, should be a great environment, the 4 greatest packers QBs of all time in attendance.0

Pretty sweet to ruin Brett Favre night! Defense played great....Rodgers actually looked human. I love the way this team plays...never feels like they are out of it. Good stuff.0

Great game! Made my Thanksgiving!Indifference71 said:Pretty sweet to ruin Brett Favre night! Defense played great....Rodgers actually looked human. I love the way this team plays...never feels like they are out of it. Good stuff.
Was a little worried with the slow start and the 3-4 consecutive 3 and outs. The oline looked horrible at first but was happy they changed up the gameplan. Cutler played a good game and made a lot of plays despite the pocket collapsing around him. Good to have Jeffery and Forte back. Miller had another great game. Bennett who? Man, I wish Langford could catch...at least more consistently. Two big drops yesterday...and let's not forget the one that cost us a win.
Defense looked solid and Porter played a great game. Like they said during the game, it's pretty amazing what they've been able to put together with a bunch of "no names" on defense.
Watched a video from inside the locker room last night. All the players and coaches smiling, laughing, hugging and having fun. Fox and his staff really have this team playing as one. Amazing what a year and new coaches can do!
Hard to imagine that the "P-word" is actually a legit thing!
This team is fun to watch!0 -
Bears played a great game last night. Really hope you guys get in the playoffs instead of one of other teams fighting for that last spot. Team has great character and is fun to watch. I'll be secretly rooting for you guys while I pray that the Packers receivers learn how to play football.0

That was brutal. I can't believe they let Blaine Gabbert beat them. And what's with Gould? That's 2 games this year where he has missed 2 easy FGs. Very unlike him.0

Gould-plated0

In an interview after the game he said he just rushed the kicks. That last one should have been a gimme and the snap was perfect. For so long he's been nothing but automatic...I wonder if his days are numbered. I mean, he's not that old by kicker standards...and I get missing 50+ from time to time, but to miss two huge kicks at 30-40 yards is unacceptable! The defense looked solid for most of the game. How many times have they collapsed in the 4th quarter this year? Lions, Vikings, Niners...all games we had in the bag.Indifference71 said:That was brutal.

The offense is what worries me. The niners have a terrible defense and we couldn't get much going. Sloppy play! Dropped balls, little protection, wild throws, WR timing issues. That INT was not Cutler's fault. The audible brings the outman IN for the quick screen. They stood still and made no attempt at the ball. Even Jim Miller called that one out after the game. That's the second big audible that has gone flat this year. Bennett running a wrong route on that audible a couple weeks back is another. I wonder if they can't hear him making the change or are just unaware of what the actual play is?
Langford has been fun to watch run the ball, but man...that guy can't catch or block for shit.0 -

It's time for a new kicker. Gould has been just about automatic for a decade, but he just doesn't seem to have it anymore.0

The one guy you could always count on...
It has to be a mental thing at this point."A smart monkey doesn't monkey around with another monkey's monkey" - Darwin's Theory0 -
Gould will be around for the next three games. After this he's either gone or he'll compete for a job next year. He's cost us 3 games this year alone...and what...2 last year?
Another game the Bears should have won. That D was brutal!
Hate to say it, but they should have moved Forte earlier this year. I love the guy but at this point he's replaceable. Could have gotten a couple picks for him.
Bennett should be let go too. Miller is just as good too and is waaaay cheaper.

This team competes, but they just don't have the talent yet. Can't wait for Pace and his team to have another offseason to fix this roster. I think Bennett is gone for sure. Also think it may be time for a new kicker....although I'm not sure what Gould's contract situation is. I know he's one of the highest paid kickers in the league. LB and secondary should definitely be at the top of the list this offseason.0

Making sure #31 doesn't play a snap next year should be top priority...."Going where the water tastes like wine!"0

Yeah, Fox has a good history of taking a team and turning them around pretty quick. He also has the history of having a rough first year. I hope....HOPE Adam Gase sticks around next year. The o-line needs some help but the rest of the offense is pretty solid....assuming they are injury free.Indifference71 said:This team competes, but they just don't have the talent yet.

QB: The Bears need to plan on the future at this spot and I don't think Fales is likely to be the guy. Cutler will likely be back next year and there are far worse options than #6. Even with a solid year, I don't see too many teams willing to spend the money on Cutler. Not sure how the QB class is going to look next year, but as much as I'd love to have them go QB in the first round, they need to focus on defense.
WR: White has been scratched for the rest of the season. Good call! Last thing we need is him to re-injure his leg, or worse. Isn't Jeffery's contract up this year? Pretty sure he'll demand top 10 WR level money. It would be nice to have White-Jeffery-Royal for an entire season.
RB: Forte is a stud but he won't be back. Langford-Carey tandem doesn't seem too bad.
TE: Bennett is gone. Didn't play for shit and will want top TE money. Miller has played great. Miller-Lee should be ok but I'd like to have one more....especially with Miller injury plagued past.
O-line: Looks like Long and the rookie center are for sure. Don't know contract status with them either. Bushrod is old and fragile, Leno is replaceable, Ducasse didn't do much. Slauson played well enough and can play center if need be.
Defense:
Need some serious LBs!
Acho showed signs.
Young and Houston did well at the new position, but I'm sure they can upgrade.
ILB is the biggest weakness. McClellin is just bad and Jones and Anderson can go an entire game without their names being called.
Line:
McPhee played well.
Sutton and Goldman came around but could never get much penetration.
Secondary:
Fuller disappointed a lot of people this year after showing signs last.
Porter played well at times but looked awful a lot too.
Ball is kind of worthless.
Amos had some good games, but decision making was terrible.
The rest of the safeties are garbage.0
