way to stay in bounds.

[Wilson A2000]

Forte playing so well. Does it all.

[kujay]

Way to stay inbounds.

[Irrelevant Dude]

If McCown was a little younger he might be setting himself up for a Matt Cassel contract.

[rawaction]

Great job, great call. Beautiful play by not Marion Barber.

[UMFan83]

I cant believe they aren't calling TOs

[CubInOK]

I'm liking the way "Jeffries" is playing tonight.

[BigSlick]

I would say you shouldn't be afraid to throw here and try to ice the game for sure. I'd be a little disappointed if they just run to position the football for a field goal try, but I'd understand it.

[WrigleyField 22]

I know what I said, but I'd never go for that. Inside your 35.

The risk-reward isn't so great. If you don't get it they get the ball on your 35 down by 4, if you do get it the drive can still stall without significantly affecting the clock the field position or the game.

 

But the meatball in me likes it.

Non-meatball rational. Pack have been running effectively all game and would have had decent field position and ability to chew clock on a TD drive. Might as well get the ball back sooner if you fail. That's the best rational I can come up with.

[Brian]

FORTE!!!!!

[UMFan83]

lmao they got the 1st...it keeps getting better

Playaction rollout. Or not! WOOO!

[Wilson A2000]

When I saw run I hated it, but yeah that worked perfectly

[d_money]

Hell yeah! I like Forte

[UMFan83]

ugh dammit that hurts a bit...horrible penalty too.

 

Packers still havent committed a penalty in the game

I cannot believe GB let that clock go from 2:00 to 1:20 without a TO.

[BigSlick]

Brutal time to get a holding penalty.

 

 

Still surprised McCarthy let so much clock go down.

[Brian]

that happens every play

[Butterscup1679666578]

wow what a bad call

[Careless]

no, dummy, that doesn't save them a timeout, it ran time off the clock and gave the Bears another first down play.

[Guest]

they are making [expletive] up to give the packers a shot

[kujay]

Yeah that was really stupid. The penalty basically dooms is to a FG try, but it had no bearing on the clock and timeout situation.

[rawaction]

Jermon Bushrod has been brilliant today. Granted, he's playing against nobody with both starting OLBs out for GB, but I don't think he's allowed anyone past him.

[jersey cubs fan]

Horrible [expletive] hold call

 

It's been loose most of game and then that nonsense?

 

That's like kyles wife banging the neighborhood but shunning the pool boy.

[captain_kickass]

McCarthy obviously stopped giving a [expletive] after Rodgers got hurt. That no-challenge call and then not using his timeouts.
