Happy day after Bears win guys.  That 4th down throw to Rome broke the laws of physics.

Really, after all the times the Packers broke our hearts, that feels so good.  Bunch of demons exorcised last night.

How many QBs can make that throw? Not many. One of the best throws I have ever seen and in a crucial time.

It’s everything you’re not supposed to be able to do, all rolled into one play. He’s running to his left as a right handed quarterback. His feet are off the ground so he can’t set them. And he’s fading away from the throw. And then, with all that, he throws it with plenty of strength over the defenders and right to the receiver.

Oh and it’s for the season.  Season over without that.

Anyone still mad the Bears didn't take Warren over Loveland in the draft?

I’m mad.  At myself.  For not trusting that Ben knows what he needs to run his offense.

We’ve never, not ever, had a QB that can do the things he can. Cutler maybe had something approaching his physical talent, but not even close mentally. 
 

for 35 years Green Bay had That Guy and we had to suffer the consequences. Last night was a passing of the baton.

Loveland now has more receiving yards on the season in equivalent games despite spending the first 6 games behind Kmet on the depth chart.

Yeah the PackersUncensored subreddit is pure gold right now.

I typically don’t scroll through other team’s boards but I can’t help myself today.

Dennis Allen probably saved his job in the 2nd half.

[BigSlick]

I don’t think the Packers are stupid enough to do it, but it would be hilarious if they fired MLF.

Given what he was able to do with a defensive roster shredded with injuries and under talented on the D-line, I definitely don’t hate the idea of seeing what he can do if we add some talent.

I think the chances are higher than you think.  It was already possible because of contract negotiations and the Packers not wanting to pay the high price.  I think there's a good chance they let MLF go, and make Hafley the coach.

Who do we want next round? Eagles or Rams? I guess it doesn't matter as long as the Bears keep it within 3 scores going into the 4th quarter

I'll eat crow on this one. Loveland has been amazing. Part of the struggle of the first half was that they weren't targeting Loveland...no idea why.

I think so.  I don’t know why he didn’t dial up some pressure in the 1st half but whatever.

To quote the legendary Benjamin David Johnson,, “horsefeathers The Packers.”

He wasn’t ready yet! He was still coming off an injury and learning the playbook. Same thing was going on with Burden too.

people were making “bust” proclamations on Loveland like 3 weeks into the season, it was driving me insane. Patience! Not even a lot of patience! Is required!

hindsight is 20/20 but I liked Ben going forth TD “early” on the final drive from a game theory standpoint, a couple of other times this season we lost momentum in similar situations by trying to bleed every second

Mad? No. But I also wouldn't have been mad about Warren (who had 817 yards and 4 TDs)

I believe there's many of us here who watch Big Ten football and knew Loveland and Warren are very good.  It was only a matter of time for Loveland, the slow start to camp is the only thing that held him back.  And, I'm awfully glad the Packers didn't take Burden, he would have been a tremendous pain in the ass for the Bears.  Golden might still be but, I think Burden would have the better pick for them.
