Game Thread: Week 14 Bears at Packers

[wood20ks]

So are you two dorks taking up @richig07's schtick now? Did I miss him passing the proverbial torch?

No,I'm not on Rich's side,but 18 of 35??

Theres 4 qtrs of football,maybe if he played all 4,we would not of had to worry about the last two minutes of the game....
And accuracy is a big deal.

Caleb has made some "wow look at that throw"along with his escapability,but imagine if he gets this all pulled together.....
Until then,I just can not dimiss it as a no bfd.

And everyone of us here has his back.....

Can’t say enough that LaFleur simply outcoached Dennis Allen.

BJs offense got its ass handed to it in the first half but he adjusted and the offense was much better in the 2nd half.

Love struggles against the blitz so DA blitzes and LaFleur made all the right calls to beat the blitz.

Helps that there’s no Gordon or Tyrique. But just a masterclass in scheme by MLF.

Hate to keep dwelling on that last play but it's the same play they ran against the Eagles to score a TD to Kmet. You literally run the same play that you know the Packers spent all week looking at. And yeah...it could have worked with a better thrown ball or Kmet beelining to the barrier....but why run that there?

Hey brother, did Tim get his house back in order?

Sort of. Mudncleats is up and running again.

What bugs me about @richig07 passing me the torch is he handed it to me flame side first. So uncool of him!

Hey, the man has a 57.8% completion rate. Now I've stated previously that obviously not all of it can be put on his shoulders. But he's missed a lot of open receivers over the course of this season, and that's on him. There probably isn't a neutral analyst out there who doesn't believe he needs to improve on this.

Well let me tell you bucko, my 3 psychiatrists strongly disagree with you!!!!

What's his total TD/INT ratio? 21 Total TDs, 6 picks.

5-game winning drives. Absolutely the hardest QB to sack in the NFL.


Of course his completion rate could get better, but the late-game wins, coupled with the low rate of turnovers, in his first year under Johnson and second year overall? This kid is doing everything he's supposed to be doing. The instant-gratification bullshit that's currently in the NFL is dumb. This kid will end up the best we've ever had IMO.

There were a lot of big record predictions this year, but I have doubts as to how many of those were genuine picks or wishful thinking.


Perspective matters. If anyone had told ya we'd be sitting at 9-4, with a decent chance to be back on top of the North by next week, and a chance to buttfuck GB at home the following week? Not a person here would have genuinely believed it.

Rejoice. Gets yer heads right.

Was it @richig07 that said I've loved every QB?

Any and all could be great. Like eating mushrooms...right environment and coaching..

It’s really just nice to be playing meaningful football at this time of year. Last year we were 5 games into a 10 game losing streak at this time with our second HC and third OC of the season.

I do believe he is the best we ever had.......
He was 6-14 in the first half,two first passes of the were way way off,hit these guys that are open,and extend these drives.

Just cause he is the best we ever had,does not say much given our past qbs.....
He has definetly learned alot,and he should only get better.
That completion pct has got to get better tho......
His escapability is uncanny.
He has a rocket arm.....

One of my buddies and I were talking about this,so he sent me this video:


His claim is he did it in highschool,so it should continue in the pros....

Sorry,but the pros is not playing highschool level football.
So I didn't watch it.

I want him to succeed as much as you do......

That's all I was saying, no other complaint about Caleb's performance. He's a natural leader, overall does a very good job running the offense, and yes he can make some incredible throws, sometimes fitting them in the tiniest windows. But there's no getting around that he needs to improve his accuracy, and by that I'm only talking about the throws when he misses open receivers.

Knew someone at Lambeau and when the Bears tied it at 21-21, Packer fans were nervous. Bears arent the pushovers they used to be.

Letting the loss marinate a day or 2, the Packers D was more ready than the Bears D.

My only gripe (other than our 1st Qtr offense)... When we play the Packers, can Santos please wear a different inspirational helmet?? Please??
