How are they not going to really suck? They are going to suck but already at 4 wins they probably will win 1 to 3 more games, they have the Browns, Bears, Vikings, Lions x2, Bucs and Ravens left on the schedule. There’s a win or 2 in there and that’s enough to keep them closer to pick 10/12 than top 5 probably. that roster sans rodgers is mostly a dumpster fire but the browns are pretty damn bad, i guess. also, in response to wrigley, even tho i was mostly making a joke with that post, rodgers will about a year younger on draft day than favre was when they drafted him, fwiw.

He's only 33 still. A little early to start talking about drafting an heir apparent unless this injury shortens his career. Plus unless they Really suck without Rodgers, they aren't finishing top 5 pick. How are they not going to really suck?

Bears game 6: Joey Elite vs. Elite Rushing game 10/15 at Noon on Fox

I hope so if you're running 40 times a game. Being that predictable doesn't make it easier to run. -
a lot of the things that keep the hitters/offense from performing are beyond your control, but one thing you can control is making optimal decisions as a manager. it's not that maddon is more responsible than the offensive woes, it's that maddon's job is much easier, for lack of better phrasing.

holy crap i don't get how people can continue to form all these narratives every year about the playoffs when none of it means anything how the hell could you not see a very good baseball team win two games in a row anywhere?

I would hate to be one of you weirdo Cubs and Packers fans today

weird. i mean obviously i get it if you're literally referring to the fact that we won those games, but that was a much more egregious decision by maddon, IMO. Chapman in Game 6 was pretty baffling, but you don't *know* it will turn out awfully in Game 7. Yes, there were good reasons to doubt the move and people did as soon as it happened, but you can see a little bit of wiggle room. Going with Lackey in a high leverage spot so you have Wade for the save. . . just feels like such a fundamental error. coming off a 3 inning save in game 5? once you use him in game 6, you could pretty much nail it down that chapman wasn't going got have much left in the tank if he was needed in game 7.

Scherzer .178/.242/.319 Kershaw .184/.204/.268 (in 2016) WRONG. Some pitchers are that horsefeathering good. those totals were against, by definition, league averagish offenses (i know it doesn't quite work out that way) not a good one like the cubs and they haven't pitched all, or even close to most, of the innings so far this postseason. the cubs bats are seriously under performing where you'd expect them to be. yes but there's just no such thing as "where you'd expect them to be" in a 7 game sample, especially one where you disproportionately face insanely good pitchers and throw in one weather nightmare for good measure. it's just baseball. it's sequencing luck, batted ball luck, etc. and sometimes it adds up to things that look like trends that are really meaningless.

nothing will top chapman pitching in game 6 and then seeing the obvious result of it in game 7. still can't believe how lucky we got. I'm more upset now than then and by a lot. weird. i mean obviously i get it if you're literally referring to the fact that we won those games, but that was a much more egregious decision by maddon, IMO.

I'm more angry about this game than any single playoff game last year. That 9th was a managing apocalypse. The Red Sox would have probably fired Joe 3 times over for it by now. nothing will top chapman pitching in game 6 and then seeing the obvious result of it in game 7. still can't believe how lucky we got.

How the hell do you know all this well, we won the world series in the non tbs year, so it's not hard to guess
-
the only answer i'd accept is that davis felt something warming up and that would suck too
-
well that couldn't have been more predictable
-
did wade davis get hurt warming up or something? for horsefeathers's sake
-
i can't handle this
-
if we're going to keep throwing nothing close to the plate to puig, why even bother leaving duensing in
-
When you swing at every pitch a foot above the zone he sure is. just guessing here that those pitches are extremely deceptive, especially against righties, and not that contreras suddenly became the least selective hitter there (i couldn't include almora there, heh)
