THAT is your call on 3rd and 5 while Rodgers is SHREDDING the defense? Are you kidding me?!

I believe they would have gone for it on 4th, if not for the penalty.

You're probably right. Still absolutely hate that play call. I understand running the ball at times. But on 3rd and 5 why are you running east to west? Eddie Lacy needs to go north to south.

But not a smart time to try an onside kick. Why not save it to start the 2nd half? Short field with a low clock now.

Totally disagree, perfect time in game to try it. Packers totally caught offguard. Only cost approx 19 yds of field position.

Tough catch by Cobb, good adjustment. No punts yet.

Haha Jay throwing the ball short of the end zone with 9 seconds and no timeouts.  Awesome.

If the Bears don't win this game, there's going to be some priceless meatball talk radio tomorrow about the refs.

Probably was a TD, but impossible to overturn that call.

Funny because if Aikman/Buck were on the call, there would have been more camera angles.

Zero defense being played. Neither of these teams is going anywhere in January. Lions best looking team in division so far today.

Was bobbling the ball at the time that he reached it out anyways.  But the point is you absolutely cannot leave any doubt whatsoever at that point.  Find someone standing in the end zone or find the 9th row of seats.  Nothing in between.  7 or 3 points are the only options at that time.  Jay found 0.

Eh, not on Jay. Martellus, two yards out is likely a TD everytime, dude's a beast.

It crossed the plane, can't overturn it. The bobble was merely a reassurance of the decision.


Does the sideline play camera seem to suck for everyone else too? Not as clear as the other games on today.

I know you hate Cutler, but that's equally, if not more, on Bennett there.

Chico's I've read numerous articles indicating that if anyone provided the tape to the NFL that had access to it, that it would not have been remotely in violation of the law. 

That the casino and the employees freely had the right to provide it to others (maybe they would be fired, but not against the law).

Please provide those articles....

There have been countless legal opinions that they absolutely could not get them, because they were part of a criminal investigation and could lead to a civil case down the road.

Let me ask you the most obvious one....if it was legal for the NFL to obtain from law enforcement, then why is the supposed tape that was sent from law enforcement sent anonymously and the person sending it used a disposable phone?  If it's legal, why was that action taken?

Here's why the videos were not given, because it is illegal to do so.   http://www.cnn.com/2014/09/10/us/roger-goodell-memo/

TMZ got them because the casino closed, they went and paid for them from the casino.  As TMZ even states, "I think what happened was the casino closed. And when the casino closed, I think there were a lot of employees who just said, you know what: 'We want to do the right thing.' And ultimately we ended up getting this video because when you look at the video, clearly you see the NFL did not do the right thing," Levin said of the second video. "And I think at a point somebody said that the gain here is worse than the risk, in terms of doing what's right."

The risk being, it is illegal....and they made a few bucks off it.

I know it was called back but how did Rodgers throw the ball that far? That makes absolutely no sense.

If Green Bay wins, their o-line deserves game balls. Williams too for jumping the slant, good read by him.

Calling that the game.

Can we get someone to take care of the field so players aren't slipping all over the place? Chicago park district is a joke.

Yup. O line looks great. Not even Mike McCarthy can stop Rodgers when the line is protecting him like this.

The real problem with the picks and not scoring at the end of the half is that the Bears basically have to abandon their run game now.

They've run it 30 times for an absurd 6.1 per carry.
