Agreed both D's look pretty good.

GB's O-line has not been very good at pass blocking.

Their RT just plain sucks. I wonder if we could trade Cook to them for a cheese hat.

Sold.

Neither quarterback looked very good for most of the game - though Rodgers certainly played better than Cutler, and came through when it counted.
Still, I'm more worried by the Packers defense than I am by their offense.
The same could be said of any NFC North team (except the Lions, who suck on both sides of the ball).

It looks to me like the Black and Blue Division is back.
And I think the division is going to be a two-way race between us and the Packers.

The Packers D is pretty entertaining to watch. Blitzing from everywhere. We will have to prepare big time to play them.

And I agree BBQ. Black and blue is back. Well not the lions still, but the other 3 have hard hitting Defense.

I thought both teams looked sloppy. Drops and interceptions and missed opportunities. Typical of the second and third place teams from the NFC North!

Cutler is god awful... I said it when he was in Denver and i'm saying it now. The Bears definatly should have kept Orton

The Packers are going to be a tough, tough pair of games for us.
I will say, despite hating them and the Bears, it's good to see some credibility returned to the NFC North.
Gonna be a fun season.

Offense looked rough...but that is the unit on the team I am least worried about. So I guess I can't be too upset about the game. They'll get things going. Rodgers missed on a few big connections to wide open guys and Drive and Nelson dropped 2 passes each. Refs were in midseason form I see...illegal contact on Harris was brutal. Good thing that didn't decide the game

Bears D-line was great, the addition of Marinelli is huge. Only worry long term is Safety play and RT...although Barbre seemed to not have good footing at all tonight. Might just be a technique issue. See how he does next game.

Defense definitely looks improved though and are doing a much better job of getting pressure. So glad to have Cullen Jenkins back(please stay healthy) even the rook Clay Matthews looked good out there. Can't wait to get Raji into the rotation next week

Your team will play better as the season goes by. It is going to be a very tough division.

Who the HELL was the Bears QB in the first half?


Were they filming a comedy, where the starting QB sends out his incompetent friend to play the first half while he chases the love of his life.
Only to return in the 2nd half and win the game?

Well they screwed up the ending!!

If Cutler would have played the whole game it wouldn't have been a contest.
