Ugh, flubs sign that cheater Bregman.  

 

aigh, yall, congrats to the Monsters for getting the playoff monkey off they shoulder, they had the longest Chicago drought without making the final 8, and still, unbelievably, have the longest title drought in the city, which is completely surreal.

 

I expect a W next week against Eagles, who we beat in Fog Bowl, or Rams, who we sonned in the conference title game.  See yall then

Edwards broken leg, and Trapilo done for the playoffs also, that's massive

Jackson will hopefully pick up for Edwards more easily than Benedet will fill in for Trapilo. Hopefully Trapilo heals sooner rather than later.

Brandon McManus single handedly cost the Packers 7 points, dudes gonna hear it for the next 6 months

This week, Bernstein and Abbatacola were talking about an embarrassing loss making LaFleur the next fired head coach. Maybe there’s truth to that, partially thanks to McManus?

Packers fans blaming Jordan Love, that's more insane than my post history in this thread

how did green bay only score 6 points in the 2nd half

McManus missed 4 points by himself. Also, GB got complacent at half and didn't adjust. Dennis Allen did. Once we were able to actually get stops on defense the entire game turned around. It took the offense a bit too long to actually convert the red zone trips to TDs, but they gave us like 6 possessions in the 2nd half.

Did Love have the worst 4 TD 0 INT playoff game of all time and did Wiliams have the best 2 TD 2 INT playoff game of all time? 

Good Better Best

Ridiculous.  Bears would have slapped Malik Willis to death.

The contrast between the 2 halves was so large (especially on defense), that it felt like I was watching a game of Madden and the casual gamer that was playing in the first half handed their controller to a pro Madden player in the 2nd half. I don't think I've ever seen an offense move the ball at will for an entire half just die in the 2nd half. They punted 4 times in a row and got 1 first down that entire time. 

Adding to the Madden analogies...I saw a post on Reddit saying Ben going for it on 4th down every time was like getting mad that you can't beat someone at Madden and going for it every time. Relatable.

That throw on 4th and 8 is why Caleb is special. I don't think there's another QB in the NFL that can make that play. Not even Mahomes. 

I'm just in awe

I can’t wait until fans at the game start uploading videos to Reddit of these plays

If we can convince Caleb the Bears are down 14 points at the start of every game... 😆 

CW just owned the post-game interview.  “We heard that the Packers wanted us, and they got us.”

Holy hell that was insane…one week at a time but let’s win 3 more!!! Let’s go!!!

Trapillo tore his patella tendon.

This and Edward’s injury sucks. What is prognosis for patella tendon injury long term? Trapillo was really getting better and giving me hope we had solved LT.

It depends on how serious it is. If it's a bad rupture he's gonna be out for some of next year. Slater just ruptured his in August. It's not a easy to come back from.

Do you think it’s also because they play at a quicker tempo and/or opposition might be playing more soft coverage?  Once I saw on that last drive how easy the first few completions were, I knew they’d score.

Caleb's inconsistency is tougher to deal with when you have only 3 plays to get 10 yards. But when you have 4 downs every time, there's a greater chance he hits a home run or does something crazy like that 4th and 8 throw. He's better in a gotta have it scenario. 

Good thing I went to bed at halftime.

 

 

Loveland and Caleb duo is going to be a big problem for the league. 
 

What a win. 

i woke up this morning and realized it wasn't a dream
