Great game

Another back n forth. Very good game.

[Phlebitis]

Stupid *** picking off ball inside 15 on 4th down. Gets up beating his chest, what an idiot.

 

[KingLando]

I still think Caleb is subpar

 

[KingLando]

So, I like Ben Johnson and the Lions obviously missed him this year but you can't give the Pack the ball at your 32 instead of punting there.
Caleb and their offense isn't good enough for that risk

 

[Phlebitis]

Asinine decision to go for that.

 

[Phlebitis]

Bears are dropping like flies.

 

[KingLando]

How was Christian Watson uncovered?

I still think that 4th down gamble to start the game came back to bite the Panthers. That outcome may have been different if they didn’t do that.

And as far as the Bears, if you’re not playing well you need to stay in the game and keep it as close as you can.

 

[KingLando]

Will all the road teams win this weekend?

 

[BobPSU92]

Da Bears are dog sh|t. They haven’t shown up tonight.

I have no problem with that one. Was short yard and since they took ball to start probably needed to do that.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Because he fumbled before the end zone, and the ball was recovered by a teammate in the end zone, the ball came back to the LOS

 

[Tom McAndrew]

But the Pack still scored on the drive:

Hope not.

 

[KingLando]

Hope not.

I think NE and maybe Philly win but I like a lot of the road teams. I feel like Philly/SF is 50/50

 

[Phlebitis]

Williams not exactly ingratiating himself to Chicago fans.

 

[KingLando]

Chicago should see if the Bengals would give them Burrow for Caleb and pieces.

Good drive there

 

[KingLando]

Green Bay got lucky as hell right there

 

[Phlebitis]

Good drive there

He is inconsistent for sure. Looks great when he’s in a groove, but man does he make some terrible plays.

 

[KingLando]

Packers way too soft on defense here

 

[Knickslions69]

He is inconsistent for sure. Looks great when he’s in a groove, but man does he make some terrible plays.

I think he’s somewhat improved this year under the new coach. He will get better with Johnson

 

[Knickslions69]

Why is Jabobs returning kicks? His knee has been ****** for weeks

 

[KingLando]

If the Packers win they might be trying to find a new kicker for next week

 

[KingLando]

You think the Pack would try to take away Loveland by now

 

[KingLando]

Complete collapse by Green Bay--we'll see if Love can save them
McManus is killing them

 

[Phlebitis]

Uncanny ability to comeback in games. Geez.

 

[Phlebitis]

If the Packers win they might be trying to find a new kicker for next week

Cost them 7 so far. the XP was big.

 

[Knickslions69]

NFL playoffs are fun!!

 

[Relayer]

As they say, the NFL never disappoints. Brandon McManus is a local kid from North Penn. Would not want to be him if the Pack lose.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[Phlebitis]

Kicker cost them the game. Wow.

 

[BobPSU92]

Wow. Da Bears were left for dead.

 

[KingLando]

Green Bay was awful at the end of that drive. Just a mess--congrats to Chicago--zero confidence in them winning another game

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Insane. Bears win, 31-27.
