    Same here, just don't think this Vikings team is as good as the 2010 Packers, there's no Super Bowl run in these Vikings.

    Good to see Anthony Miller getting opportunities.

    This letdown [expletive] against garbage teams has got to stop.

    Nah Watson just gave Houston the lead, completed TD bomb to some dude from Limestone College - didn't know they had a football program, great lacrosse program though.

    Lions mailing it in, thought they might beat the Vikings today, just do not like the idea of the Bears having the Vikings as their opponent in the first round.

    I would believe anything said about any Illinois athletic program at this point. Do tell... Drew was told that taking the job is suicide as the President and board think sports are a distraction and do not want to support them at all. Felt they were just an institution of higher learning and that's what all the focus should be on. If that's true they're completely dillusional, success in revenue sports means more funds to support higher learning and research. Not to mention studies have suggested activity increases concentration which, in turn, helps learning, intelligence,etc. Such a view is completely closed-minded by a supposed institute of higher learning.

    I hung out with Roger Powell today. That was a win. Sure was, good for you.

    Illini playing Missouri tonight, I'm certain the worst possible outcome will occur. Because that's the way it's been for the Illini - if something bad can happen it will. However, I really hope something bad happens to Cuonzo Martin, that nonsense he pulled to get Mark Smith (claiming abuse) immediately eligible along with Tilmon, I'm hoping karma' a bitch and more.

    Oh come on. He has an uphill climb because the beginning of his career hasn't been all that great. there is that, but i think the move got so much ridicule that the national guys have taken a narrative and run with it. the coverage of that draft ("ryan pace just got himself fired") was ridiculous and it was obvious at the time. hilarious to look back at now... trubisky, cohen, jackson...shaheen can still be a thing, too. i mean, the expectations for a first year qb playing in the situation he played in last year shouldn't have been so high nor was his performance so bad that he should have been looked at all that negatively, imo. Compare to supposed run away winners in the trade, the Niners, the Bears 2017 draft is really impressive.

    https://theloopsports.com/2018/12/19/bears-trubisky-outplayed-rodgers-sunday/ - He was the QB who stepped up and lead his team to a win.
  11. gflore34
    It's a combination of him being really good and the way the game has changed. I mean Mitch has a rating in the 90s and nobody thinks he's any damn good nationally. Not that it matters but, I don't know if Mitch will ever be good nationally, he's bad because the Bears overpaid to get him and that's always going to be the opinion.

    Listening to the Score a bit this morning, subject was Trubisky' home/road splits compared to those of Mahomes. Mahomes is actually better on the road - 125+ QBR vs. 105+ QBR at home, what he's doing is phenomenal, could this be a one-in-lifetime season we've seen many good players have (Yaz in '67, Yount in '82, Boudreau in '48 as examples from Baseball) or is he really this good? Mitch is something like 97+ vs. 88+.
  13. gflore34
    Um, the theory wasn't that the 9ers were selecting Mitch. It's that other teams were active in the trade-up market. A decent theory as two other teams did indeed trade up for a QB. At the end of day didn't it boil down to flipping spots for a draft pick? Pace got one the picks back in a later trade with Arizona, isn't that correct?
  14. gflore34
    I remember ESPN' and other so called experts' reactions to the trade, how one-sided it was, how could Pace and the Bears be so foolish? What was really annoying was the media showing some goof looking horsefeathers from the Nners draft coverage/party/whatever cheering and laughing, think there was some clown from the Green Bay camp as well. In comparing drafts, I'd say the Bears 2017 draft has been superior to the Niners 2017 draft.
  15. gflore34
    How delicious is it that Solomon Thomas, the player that the Niners got in that "fleecing" of the Bears by the genius of a GM - Lynch, has been less than average while the Trubisky and the Bears have turned it around? Hell, Roquan Smith has been better than Thomas.

    True enough, his ass 1/2 sack of Rodgers was hilarious, Packer lineman was literally holding on for life and Mack still managed to back into Rodgers.
  17. gflore34
    Packers never get beat by a better team, every loss was the result of bad officiating. gotcha What's funny about CheeseheadTV is the highlighted plays on which Rodgers missed TD tosses Mack is being blatantly held.
  18. gflore34
    Not at all...From CheeseheadTV- "For me the game changing play was the recovered FF. That put the Packers in the game and allowed them to score their only TD. The game killing drive was when the refs handed Chi a TD with 2 poor calls. After seeing the game handed to Chi on a silver platter it left 2018 once more with a terrible taste. I know as a fan I'm biased towards the Packers but even talking to fans of other teams they commented on how GB got hosed this year." what? Packers never get beat by a better team, every loss was the result of bad officiating.
  19. gflore34
    but that was the hallmark of the Packers for yeeeeaarrrs..."we DRAFT talent". Every team eventually runs out of talent when they have a few at the top sucking up the financial resources and winning enough to put them consistently out of the top 10 draft wise. Even, the Patriots(!) will meet that fate eventually. Not at all...From CheeseheadTV- "For me the game changing play was the recovered FF.

    [tweet] [/tweet] Some have mentioned his step up in play after the cast removal, I've seen it, relentless is fitting.

    Checked out some post on Packers' boards quite a bit of Rodgers missing wide open TD's to this or that receiver, so many opportunities missed i.e., the same kind of loser horsefeathers I've posted in past. It's awesome to be finally be on the winning side, Leonard Floyd tossing Rodgers aside like a sack of potatoes brings an emphatic end to Packers dominance of the Bears and the NFC North.
  22. gflore34
    This game struck me as one where the Bears were their own worst enemies and should have won by a larger margin.
  23. gflore34
    Not the beat down I was hoping for, nevertheless, its awesome to beat those [expletive].
  24. gflore34
    No doubt they would have converted instead the let those mother [expletive] back into the game.
  25. gflore34
    Pound their asses with Howard then hit them with a play-action to Anthony Miller.
