A new offense and second year in the new defense but one thing maybe overlooked is there is a new special teams coordinator and the special teams did great and Mr Scott and his punting was a big part of the game. Yhey held the Bears to no big returns and such and our coach was not afraid to kick a field goal when the opportunity was there unlike the Bears when they went for it on 4th and 10 instead of kicking a 51 yard field goal because he was nit confident in his kicker.

The whole deal with the kicking situation in Chicago is hysterical. The fans went nuts when their guy made a FG and then he kicked off out of bounds. It's going to be tough for any kicker to deal with the pressure. Couldn't happen to a nicer team.

Week 3 is my guess on Jenkins to take that spot

Read an article about Taylor having a tough time. You’re right, if he doesn’t bounce back Jenkins will be starting.

Nice to see the defense hold a team to single digits in their house. I can’t remember the last time the defense held an opponent to less than 10 points. I want to get excited but have to see a few more games to get an idea how good or bad they are.

I'll take an ugly win over a pretty loss anytime.

On a related note, fun reading the meltdown all over the Bears board just after the first game :suds:

I forgot to add how satisfying the win is when just about everybody picked the bears to win including myself.

Sloppy game from both teams but i will take it as well. A win is a win. I will try my best this season to stay positive but no promises. :D

Hey man, I don't think everything is always sunshine and rainbows either

What I liked was Rodgers' sly little grin in the presser saying, "we have a defense".

And I think that’s one of the characteristics I like about Packer fans. Every body here is pretty knowledgeable and I enjoy the comments and articles that are posted. After a loss I tend to vent here and right or wrong I let my emotions get the best of me at times.

That said, I want to get excited about the season but I will be cautious and see if the defense is for real and if Rodgers can play with a chip on his shoulder again. Go Pack Go!

I hate you all as much as I did last season, when you beat us week 1. Then we won the division, so, maybe its a just a week 1 things now.

You guys will be fine. Both teams looked sloppy as hell. I don’t know how much Trubisky played in pre season but it probably wasn’t much more than Rodgers and Rodgers didn’t play a snap.

He didnt throw a single pass, If Im not mistaken. Think they had him hand the ball off a couple times. which was weird, and seemed stupid to me.

After watching the game last night on my DVR I can say the weak link was the O-line. Bulaga did well but Taylor was pushed back time and time again and even Bakhtiari got bullied several times. I hope it lights a fire in them to shore that shit up. AR didn’t help with some of his throws but they have to give him more than 2 seconds to throw the ball.

The guards are the weakness again. The tackles won all but one rep against Mack.

Jenkins needs to replace Taylor right now. Turner I’m ok letting him have another week

They better show a some pride against the Vikings. The blocking has to be 100% better this Sunday.
