I don't know if there is a worse opponent for the Bears than the Eagles this coming Sunday. Don't get me wrong, the Niners/Pack/Saints/Pats would truck the Bears right now, but considering how their season ended last year, how their game ended yesterday, going to a Philly team that might be finding it's stride, I have a feeling the Bears are going to get thrashed on Sunday afternoon. Just looking at this on the surface, I see really bad things coming this week ahead.

So yeah...

New submission for worst roughing call of the season:

Why didn't Nagy go for two there?
Big difference between being down 11 or 12. Little difference between being down 12 or 13.

Dick Stockton insisting Teddy KGB is Irish is the absolute final nail in the coffin for Fox to finally fire him.

He's awful. I've been amazed for a couple years they've kept him.

[jsglow]

Holy cripes.  Nice comeback.

[Jockey]

Packer defense getting worse by the week.

[Cheeks]

Domination, but settle for field goals means you will lose.

[The Hippie Satan of Hyperbole]

Chargers will not lose. Packers a no show. Got too full of themselves.

Yep.  Not ready today for whatever reason.

The blueprint is out there. And it’s really not that difficult of one. Don’t throw a ball directly to a defensive back offensively and you’ll have chunk plays all night. And defensively double Davante, man up on the rest and pin the ears back.

NFC Title game appearance will be a pleasant surprise for this team. The receiving group is horrendous.

Yes. The “blueprint” that only two teams have figured out.

Haven’t really played the toughest of schedules, or quarterbacks who can carry out that blueprint. Not to mention it sometimes takes a couple weeks to figure out the blueprint on teams.

[The Hippie Satan of Hyperbole]

This wasn’t about a blueprint. They got beat straight up on both lines.

[Jockey]

Never been a fan of Martinez, but he has been particularly bad recently. Out of position way too often. Even considering GB really has only one NFL caliber DL.

Yeah it’s about personnel. 2 weapons on offense, and you can take one out of the game by ignoring the other receivers the Packers have and keeping him in check.

Agreed. No range either.

Detroit was done dirty by the refs.

Not really. Detroit still would’ve had to go 40 yards to get into FG range with 1:30 left and 0 timeouts just to get to OT. They had 2 big plays on their first two drives and did nothing offensively after.

GB would have had to punt and not earned that TD in my opinion.  Detroit up 22-13 on 3rd and 10...AR sacked for loss and that forces a punt, more time off clock and who knows if Detroit scores.  Instead bailout and GB gets a TD as the drive kept alive.

Then the next call.

The refs also missed a blatant PI on Aaron Jones on third down that would’ve extended a drive. The second call changed the end of the game but given how the Lions offense played after their first two drives they might not have gotten anywhere near field goal range.

The NFL reviewed that first call and determined it was called correctly.

[Cheeks]

If your last name is Allen and you started as QB today in the NFL...you were a winner.

Brandon Allen - Broncos
Josh Allen - Bills
Kyle Allen - Panthers

Lol


Someone better tell Troy Vincent if the NFL who said the refs missed the calls.

Read your own link.

"There was a pool report that I'm assuming most have read. There was one that was clear that we support. And there was another that when you look at it, you review the play, not something that you want to see called. In particular the pass rush. One that you could support, the other one clearly after you review it, you've seen some [slow motion replay], the foul wasn't there."

Says one was a penalty (the first) the second was not. Your link confirms what I said, because it is the same quote I based my statement on.
