Yikes. Mel dropped a big smelly pile today. Awful showing. Worse news was Allen loosing 15lbs due to the pneumonia. It may be hard for him to put that weight back on during the season. Houston hasn't shown me a thing this year, and what I didn't understand is, why not move Young back over to the Left where he's gotten all his sacks from????? Put Scott in on the R with Houston. Instead, they kept our best sacker lined up on the best O lineman. I am no coach but that was an odd move to me.


D line stunk it up on pass pressure, played well v. the run though. Cutler's errors were him maybe and Wr maybe, plenty of blame to go around to each.

This was a karma game.

The Pack was coming off an embarrassing division loss to the Lions of all teams, who now lead the division. They always seem to start slow and know that they always pick it up after a while. They know and have confidence that the rebound is coming at the same time they're pissed at themselves for letting last week's game get away, putting them in a 1-2 hole.

The Bears are 2-1, having had some things go their way. We got some favorable calls in the Jets game. And we've gotten a bunch of turnovers--good plays on our part, but still things just seemed to go our way in the end. We're not a 3-1 team, but maybe we were a little overconfident.

Those two things converged into GB playing their best game of the year and us playing our worst.

Either you want thoughtful football talk or you want a trash talk pissing contest. One of the best forums I know of (for basketball... sucks for football though) is ******. Trolls get suspended. If you troll multiple times you get banned. You'd be surprised how it elevates the traffic on those boards and how strong the conversation gets.

Trust me... you're better off not being a douche bag. The season will have some ups and downs... the SF game was an up and this one was a down. A victory would have been great, but the defense was terrible today and a defense cannot afford to be terrible against the Packers. Actually, the run defense wasn't that bad... but the pass defense was non existent. In the second half, Jay thought he had to do everything himself and when he gets into that mode he starts playing outside himself and makes mistakes.

Positives... we ran the ball VERY well. Martellus Bennett is continuing to put together a great season. The run defense is stringing together some good games.

The Packers are a dragon this team will have to eventually slay... but it wasn't going to happen today. The refs and injuries are no excuse either... we just didn't have what it takes to force a punt. And on that note... neither punter had a punt attempt (although in our case, we had two drives end in turnovers, a drive end with the half ending and another on downs... so some of those weren't a case of our offense being unstoppable). How many NFL games have ended without either team punting?

I heard after the game that this was the second game in all NFL history that did not have one punt. So yes this sort of thing has not happened very often

The officiating was as shitty as I've seen in years...for both teams. Last 3 games have been hard to watch. Can't go two plays without one of the teams getting flagged. Lotta phantom calls today.

The NFL is ruining this game in favor of soccer Moms and children. That flag against Mundy today for the "hit to the head" was so bad. The main reason, is because it was a TEXTBOOK tackle. One that they should be PROMOTING, not penalizing. The extended drives on ticky tack bullshit is out of control. Something has to change with the defensive holding. Automatic first downs there, give way to much power to the refs.

Stuck on Stipid

Mel Tucker is stuck on stupid, and has to go....

You run cover two when you have a MLB who can cover the middle of the field, and your front four, can pressure the QB...If you can't...you can not run that defense, you get lit the fuck up, like Aaron Rodgers did them today...you coach to the talent of your players, and Mel Tucker does not get it, that they no longer have the talent to run that scheme...that is what got Lovie Smith fired...doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

FIRE MEL TUCKER NOW!!!!

 

[thunderspirit]

The Pack had seven drives under Rodgers: touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, field goal, touchdown, touchdown, missed FG.

It's pretty effing obvious on which side of the ball the blame for this one lies.https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/blamejaycutler?source=feed_text&story_id=10152398473992151

Sure ignore the fact you had ZERO POINTS IN THE SECOND HALF.

I'm not sure how many nfl games there have been, many years there were fewer teams and fewer games per year... But over the past century there must have been roughly ten thousand. And this was one of only two where there were no punts. That is unbelievable.

Yup. I agree.

 

[nomoreshoop]

whatever makes ya feel better toover, you are superior and I am inferior, happy now?
I still don't like ya, so my motivation is simple.
I don't shake the 8 ball to decide whom to respond nicely to and who to attack.
I went off on the Packer trolls, not any of youse, but some fellow Bear posters decided to step on me, for whatever strange reason.
All I said when i first got here was "glad we spent all that $ and draft picks on Jay cutler" then suddenly I had 20 enemies here waiting for me in this chat.
But I did agree with JoeyTourrette about being a Debbie downer, he's right about that, if you can't believe we'll will win until that 60th minute expires, well then scream into the couch cushions and stay off the keyboard, lol.

Sh!t... take a walk or something. It sucks, we lost. But you just went off on me for not agreeing with you that we should troll other forums when we win. The funny thing is... I think you AGREE with me. You just gave kudos (deserved) to MikeFive for being a classy poster who doesn't attack others and compels discussion. I agree with you. And I'm sure you'd rather be closer to the M5 model than the Lofton idiot. So just chill the f*ck out already. When the pendulum swings back to the Bears and we're constantly kicking the Packer's asses, it will be extra sweet.

Some really good points in this thread. One name that hasn't been mentioned is Lamar Houston. Where the hell has he been over 4 games? I know he got hurt towards the end of the game yesterday but he has been invisible over the first quarter of the season. I hope the man has some pride, picks up his game significantly and earns his paycheck.

 

[toooverbearing]

Throwing a name out there: Jim Leavitt. LB coach of the Niners.

1. Inaugural HC of the USF Bulls for 16 years and had them ranked as high as no. 2 in the country on the strength of their defense.

2. As LB coach of the Niners, all four LBs were first or second team all pro in 2013 (3 first, 1 second).

3. Niners beat the Packers in the playoffs in both of his seasons there. He may have the secret sauce. And he may have insights on beating the Seahawks and Niners as well come playoff time.

I agree. I did not expect this.

He looks awful so far. It's honestly getting a little absurd. He literally NEVER makes a play. EVER. He's freaking absent from every box score.

I mean… what the hell?

 

[Mikefive]

OK... You know one thing... Your offense scored 17 points. What would you expect are the odds that your team won? Maybe 20%?

Now flip it around... Your defense allowed 38 points. Same question. The answer this time is near zero.

Case closed.

 

[nebearsfan70]

Tucker is not a good coach, evident in his game plan against GB. He opted not to blitz, letting the front four produce pressure...or so he thought. What was this idiot thinking? With two starting linemen out (Allen and Ratliff), you would think he would want to dial up some pressure to compensate for the depleted line. All of this while keeping in mind that Rodgers had been sacked 9 times in three games previous. Everyone knows pressure disrupts AR's game... So what the fuck was Tucker thinking?

Answer: He wasn't.

I'm certainly not a fan of Tucker either. With that said, it's a "pick your poison" situation when deciding to blitz vs sit back and defend. The problem is that we don't have the secondary to cover GB's WRs when we do blitz. So when we blitz and the guys don't get there, big plays are the result. I'm not saying we shouldn't have blitzed, a mix would have been nice, but I can see why we chose the approach we did.

I agree that there wasn't really anything wrong with Tucker's game plan going in.

That said, he's the Ron Turner of defensive coordinators: adjustments are something the other team is supposed to do.

The Bears' offense held the ball for 36 minutes and some change through 77 plays. Defense with 23 snaps in the first half. It's not as though they were on the field too long.

Cutler wasn't perfect in this game by any means, but I put this one on the defense through and through.
