I really don't feel that badly about this game, I mean I feel bad, but I'm not freaking out.

 

They had some disastrous opening series, they got blowed up, thats it. It happens. I didn't watch past midway thru the 3rd quarter.

 

They can still win the division, and probably will. Hope Cutler looks sharper, he looked a bit off.

"probably" is a strong word when you consider the voodoo curse against non-blackhawks/white sox chicago teams

Well, any team that can run the ball and avoid turnovers will absolutely shred this defense.

 

Makes me feel like throwing up. Not sure why you're OK with it.

I didn't learn anything about this team from this game that I didn't already know?

 

The teams not going on a run or winning the Superbowl, y'all should have known that already. But they can win the division and maybe not get completely embarrassed in the first round. It'd be a good start for Trestman and they can spend some time tooling the defense up.

We can only hope that the reports are true that Rodgers is not really close to coming back. He will destroy this defense.

 

Packers have to consider carefully whether their entire franchise is worth an 8 win, one-and-done team.

 

If it's me, I play Flynn unless I've got multiple doctor's signature in blood.

They already have the doctors OK. I don't see how playing Rodgers hurts the franchise at all. At worst he hurts the collarbone worse and is back 2 months before training camp.

Trust me the Packers aren't taking any chances with that collar bone, and that's the likely reason you haven't seen him back yet.

Winner of Bears/Packers more than likely is 1 and done, I doubt the Packers risk it.

 

Risk what? Rodgers missing OTAs?

The only reason I can see Rodgers not playing is that he can't make all the throws even though cleared to play. Maybe a 60% Rodgers not as good as a 100% Flynn. I really don't think GB is worried about reinjuring Rodgers's collarbone.

While tonight was troubling in all phases, these losses are much easier for me to get over than losses by one score or less. Reminded me of the St. Louis game, got behind early and it all snowballed because of the D. Will be very important to start fast next week.

 

At least McCown didn't come in and light it up. We don't need that to become anymore of a distraction than it already is.

 

I think we came out of it OK injury-wise. Shea, Briggs, and Conte were all still out there when starters were pulled. Am I missing anyone?

 

Pray for Flynn, guys.

If Rodgers plays, they can beat anyone, Seattle included

 

So, put Rodgers in the RG3 scenario even if he's not medically cleared?

Surprised I haven't heard fans stupidly complaining about Trestman's lack of fire and passion. He's more calm than Lovie.

 

No time for that when we have the great Cutler/McCown controversy.
