3rd & 7 37yd

He may be. He also doesn't have a lot of film on his offense.

Packers had Trubisky dead to rights with that blitz and they can't get him.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:06:06 AM
Parkey will try a 33-yard field goal. It's good. BEARS 20, PACKERS 0.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:06:22 AM
Very creative plays by the Bears.

by Scott 9/10/2018 2:06:28 AM
Pettine finally came up with a blitz that got two guys free for runs at Trubisky and they couldn't get him down on the ground.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:06:55 AM
Rodgers has his helmet on and looks like he'll be entering the game.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:07:27 AM
Bears will pin their ears back and come screaming after Aaron—I don’t wanna watch...

by Ol’ Buford 9/10/2018 2:07:45 AM
Terrible tackling ; Nagy is no genius

by Paul 9/10/2018 2:07:49 AM
So the Packers miss a sack due to tackling and the Bears seem to be great tacklers. Why?

by Todd 9/10/2018 2:07:59 AM
Better players.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:08:07 AM
Please don’t let him get hit again

by Packersjill’s 9/10/2018 2:08:12 AM
Tom, you see this team in practice. Is it as bad as it appears?

by Denver Jim 9/10/2018 2:08:18 AM
I didn't see this kind of performance coming up. I thought their offensive line would do a much better job protecting Rodgers. I wasn't sure about the defense. I thought that Nagy would give them trouble. I said that at the start.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:09:06 AM
Penalty flag down before Montgomery even caught the ball. Looks like offsides.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:09:27 AM
Illegal formation. First and 10 at the 31 with Rodgers in the game.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:10:01 AM
Looks like they'll be going to the quick game to start, just to get Rodgers warmed up.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:10:41 AM
Boy, their running game is terrible. Nothing doing at all.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:11:10 AM
Got a good spot on that pass to Cobb for a first down.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:11:53 AM
Finally some quick throws

by Frank Burgess 9/10/2018 2:11:54 AM
Poor job of coaching and preparation as well. That's on McCarthy and his staff.

by Peter 9/10/2018 2:12:04 AM
Haven't seen much of Graham tonight.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:12:24 AM
I think jones will take over at rb once he returns. Williams isn’t the answer

by Jeremy 9/10/2018 2:12:34 AM
Need Jones on. Some speed out there

by Mitch 9/10/2018 2:12:35 AM
I don’t understand why they didn’t start with these short throws?

by Chris 9/10/2018 2:12:50 AM
Because they thought their protection would be better and they could hurt the Bears down the field.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:13:08 AM
Packers going to no-huddle.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:13:30 AM
Another first down on Williams' run.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:13:50 AM
Bears are playing both of their safeties back on first down. Rodgers is taking what's there underneath.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:14:14 AM
Now it's going to get tougher with the field compressed.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:14:26 AM
Cobb showed up tonight

by DLG 9/10/2018 2:14:36 AM
One thing for certain, the Bears completely surprised GB on both sides of the ball. That's coaching.

by hopelessInColorado 9/10/2018 2:14:46 AM
Rodgers has to get the Bears when they come on these run blitzes. If he can figure when they're coming play-action will be big.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:15:34 AM
The protection has been much better. There's a pocket around Rodgers.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:16:13 AM
Fourth and 9, Rodgers wanted to go for it and told the field goal unit to get off the field. McCarthy ordered them back on the field

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:17:19 AM
Rodgers did not look happy.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:17:25 AM
Crosby's 42-yard field goal is good. BEARS 20, PACKERS 3.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:17:59 AM
Rodgers it appears was mad that McCarthy didn't challenge the 12-men on the field penalty.

by Tom Silverstein 9/10/2018 2:18:35 AM
Gotta take points there. 9 yards is too much.

by Jim 9/10/2018 2:18:41 AM
That was the right call - couldn't leave without points there

by DLG 9/10/2018 2:18:45 AM
Still a 3 possession/score game

by Bamabadger64 9/10/2018 2:18:45 AM
D needs a quick stop

by My other brother daryl 9/10/2018 2:18:47 AM
Ok Defense lets get a turn over....Pick 6 ???

by DJ 9/10/2018 2:18:47 AM
One silver lining is that it is pretty clear we should be look8ng for a new backup qb.

by Troy 9/10/2018 2:18:51 AM
Are they sure Aaron didn't sustain a head injury? What made him think they could pick up a 4th and 9?

by MJ 9/10/2018 2:18:59 AM
I think I was wrong. I think he wanted a challenge flag.
