This will work out good for the Bears. Packers coming in fighting for a playoff spot will be a good tune up for the playoffs.

 

 

Hoping the starters, Tillman, Vash, & Johnson all start and get this D back on track.

Mike Brown in that 2nd awesome pic.

 

*Sigh*

[TruffleShuffle]

Farve won't retire, he'll sit around for a few months and string everyone along, and then announce he's playing sometime around June.

And Tommie Harris... :cry:

Let's go Packers!

[Jon]

According to ChicagoSports.com, there are reports that Tank lost up to 15 pounds. It'll be interesting to see how he does in practice this week.

Is that a good thing?

I don't think it can be, that would make him about 280 I think.

Yeah, not a good thing.

Amen. A Giants loss on Saturday would make this our most important regular season game since nearly two years to the date on Christmas Eve. That game was against the 'Queens in the Dome, and we came out victorious 34-31, and won the NFC North for the 3rd year in the row.

 

Of course, a Giants win makes this game pretty much irrelevant.

Losing 15 pounds over the offseason while coming to camp more trimmed and cut = good thing

 

Losing 15 pounds over a 2 week period following a tramatic arrest and death of your best friend = bad thing

 

Of course, quitting marijuana and its appetizing side effects may do that to someone too ;)

Could bare the fact that you were a Sox fan, but a Packers fan too? That's 2 strikes....I'll be watching closely for the third ;)

He also likes the Illini. What an evil trio.

14-2 would be a great season! Lets go Bears!

[cubs121]

i want 14-2 because of the fact that it could be Favre's last game, and becuse 13-3 reminds me of the last 13-3 season. :shock:

[Soul]

I want no more injuries more than I want a win Sunday. I know Bear/Pack rivalry and all that----I'll take a healthy squad for playoffs more than a sweep of the Pack.

 

That said, 2 quarters of starters playing should be fine. Put Griese in for the 3rd & 4th quarters, and get our backups some more play time.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

Chad Mortensen trying to keep the QB controversy alive on Monday Night Countdown...ESPN can go suck it.

 

I'm sure the Bears are considering playing Griese in the playoffs by getting him reps without TJ, Benson, Berrian or Moose. :roll:

[Jon]

Pre-planned reps + showing not much + conservative playcalling + Grossman playing well + ESPN being a crap network = major QB controversy

[Flames24Rulz]

Any chance that this game gets moved to either a 3:15 time or the SNF game?

yep, the sunday night is a possibility. i hope it stays as a nooner.

[jiml60]

I'd say there is a good chance. Only 2 other attractive games with playoff implications - Atlanta/Philadelphia and KC/Jacksonville.

[bukie]

I really doubt they'll move it to Sunday night, because by the time the game would be played, it could be completely meaningless.

 

With the Philly win tonight, my guess would be Philadelphia/Atlanta, since that game has meaning no matter what happens earlier in the day.

The whole Brett Favre thing would be enough by itself.
