Read before you respond. You sound smarter that way.

 

It's people like you that give Packers fans everywhere a bad rep.

 

Yeah. Having faith in my team sure makes all those other Packers fans look bad. :roll:

 

There's a huge difference between having faith in your team and purposely starting [expletive] on a board consisting mostly of Bears fans. Do we have to revisit the GB-CHI Week 3 game thread?

No, I didn't say we embarrassed the Bears at home. I said we WOULD if we met in the playoffs.

You must not remember that week 3 thread. It may be difficult for you to remember that thread in an ocean of your ridiculous posts in the past few years, but it may be worth another read.

 

Like I said before, I stand by every single thing I said Week 3. If the shoe was on the other foot Bears fans would have echoed a lot of my opinions.

Please do. That was fun times.

Not so much, no. Because the shoe is on the other foot. In the week 3 thread you even stated by the end of the year the standings would show the superior team. And you were actually right this time.

Man, I just looked back at that thread. What a mess that was.

 

In fact, here's a link! http://www.northsidebaseball.com/forum/topic?f=44&t=58319

 

Some of my best work. Man, you guys got PISSSSSSED. It was funny.

 

You probably shouldn't admit trolling. And you probably shouldn't provide links to it.

 

It wasn't really trolling. At first I was legitimately pissed about the result of the game, but as it went on I was more amused by some of the responses from the board. I did and still do believe that if the Packers had won that game on a last-second field goal after 170-some yards of penalty help from the Bears, Bears fans would have said they handed the Packers that game.

So I posted on Facebook that I had enough money from Christmas to go to a possible playoff game at either Chicago or St. Louis. One of my friends was selling two tickets to the Giants game for a reasonable price ($200 for two tickets). I bit the bullet and decided to go to one of the more important regular season games we've had in recent memory. That was the first time I've been to Lambeau during a regular season game and that was one of the coolest experiences I've ever had. I went to a preseason game, pre-renovation, about ten years ago but obviously nothing really compared to a game with playoff implications on the line.

 

That drive back would've sucked if we lost that game, but it was obviously well worth it. Now hopefully the Vikings win tomorrow so the Bears clinch the bye and we see plenty of Todd Collins on Sunday.

Stay classy, Mike McCarthy.

 

Really throwing deep there?

 

As soon as Coughlin was burning his final timeouts with so little time left in the game, I wanted them to go with a play action deep pass and sure enough, they did.

 

Don't burn your timeouts when you're down by 3 TD's with 4 minutes left in the game.

i'd tell you to take some deep breaths but i know they're all deep.

 

yowza, i dont know how you recover from that

i guess when your point differential is like 30 points this year, a 5 point home win would qualify as embarrassing your opponent.

 

I'll chalk that up to Australia not having a good feed of the game, but the 5 point differential hardly told the story.

 

All of Philly is laboring under the delusion that that game was actually close.

 

that double-harris interception - a fortunate deflection by tommie - was a huge swing in the game. there's a good chance we would have been leading at halftime; instead we ended up down by 8 points. plus we were missing our best CB and another important player in the secondary, coincidentally cutler was able to throw at will. and the eagles settled for like 35 field goals.

 

so lots of things favored the bears and still they were outgained and won by only 5 points. i guess if that counts as an overwhelming victory then so be it.

if not for the lucky catch by celek that was ten times as fortunate as harris's deflection, it would have been a double-digit victory.

 

if it weren't for the refs the bears probably would have won by 75 points.

The Bears went into prevent defense with about a minute left in the third quarter, up 31-13. They basically allowed the Eagles anything they wanted offensively up the middle of the field under 20 yards with the idea that they wouldn't have enough time left to win if the Bears simply ran out the clock and didn't do anything stupid. They were right.

 

That game wasn't nearly as close as the overall yardage and final score indicated.

sort of. they allowed the eagles a chance to get an onside kick with almost two minutes left. if the eagles hadn't kept settling for FG the bears strategy wouldn't have worked out either.

 

and as i mentioned, that INT when we were going for a TD swung things drastically, plus the eagles missing their secondary was a big factor.

The pass to Celek at the end was the only play that the Bears D didn't basically give away in the 4th quarter. Besides that, the Eagles were doing basically exactly what the Bears wanted them to. Sure, they could have gone for TDs instead of FGs, but the Bears were more than happy to give them FG drives in the 4th, and the Eagles obliged.

 

The game was in doubt for a grand total of about two minutes in the second half. The 90 seconds before the Bears scored to make it 28-13, and the 30 seconds it took to recover the onside kick after the Vick throw into quadruple coverage that was completed to Celek.

 

EDIT: I mean, I think there was even a 15-minute stretch where sulley wasn't complaining about the game, so it must have been pretty well in hand.

if it weren't for the fans, the eagles wouldn't be so unlikeable.
