@AdamHoge: Marshall just said on Sports Sunday that the TD wasn’t Conte’s fault. Said Conte didn’t get the call. There was “miscommunication”.

 

@AdamHoge: Sounds like #Bears were supposed to be in man, but some, including Conte, were playing zone. That’s either on Tucker or Briggs.

This makes the most sense, and is also entirely avoidable. I'm not sure if they checked out of one coverage and into another on the 4th and 8, but they were also late to adjust on another important play earlier in the game. On that one, Corey Wootten was still in his stance a good full second after Rodgers received the ball.

Was that the one where the LBs were all hitting their helmets indicating coverage changes and out of position when the ball was snapped? I think that was a 3rd down and luckily Rodgers overthrew his guy in the end zone.

Ye that was it, the helmet tap is an audible call.

Bring Frazier in as DC now that he is without a job

 

He's pretty much married to a 4-3, cover 2/quarters based scheme. Not sure if you guys want that or not.

Fine with me. Defense doesn't have to be great. Just has to be average.

The bend but don't break style is fine if you aren't constantly breaking.

You guys do know the Vikings were the one defense in the NFL ranked worse than us, right?

 

The Vikings defenses were solid when he was DC though.

Frazier ran a one gap scheme. I like that.

This year it was almost all a function of talent and injuries. The LB's are either bad or aging (Greenway). The only decent CB was a rookie who didn't come along until the middle of the year and was a part-time player prior to that, then got injured late. Harrison Smith (safety) is probably the best player and he was out most of the year with injury.

 

I think he'd be a good coordinator again as long as you're fine with him staying so rigid to his philosophy. Players absolutely love him and play their asses off for him, even with nothing on the line. I would have been fine with him remaining head coach with upgrades at QB and offensive coordinator.

The #Packers offensive player who graded out lowest in Sunday's win vs. the Bears was QB Aaron Rodgers (-2.4), according to @PFF (*gasp*).

 

He was also Peter King's offensive player of the week this week lolz

@MattEurich: #Bears top 3 on offense vs. Packers per @PFF: Jay Cutler (+4.0), Kyle Long (+3.3) and Eben Britton (+3.1)

The real question is, was Cutler the best player on either team yesterday?

Forte the only guy I can think of I might rank ahead of Jay. Sucks for Cutler. He outplayed Rodgers and his team isn't going to the playoffs.

Self-serving. How did Long's bad hands do this year? Just fine.

Hub is such a negative POS. I think Mills and Long did okay based on this being a rookie year. It's not unreasonable to believe they'll get better with a full offseason. Hub [expletive] on them after dumping on Alshon at the start of the season

Final PFF scores of the season:

Jesus Christ, how does a punter who only punted 2-3 times in a game get that low of a score? Good riddance

 

Nice job by the offense overall, terrible job by the defense as usual. I'm high on Corey Wootton next year if we keep his position stable (if we resign him....assuming we will). Amazingly, the run defense graded positively and the defense really sucked with pass rush (not surprising) and pass coverage (mildly surprising).
