I've been talking so much shit to Bears fans in the last few hours my cock is weeping cumtears.

Honestly, Peppers should have been ejected for that hit. Not only was it a flagrant helmet-to-helmet shot, but he also slapped Rodgers on the helmet after he took him to the ground. That was just uncalled-for, and I don't even like the contact-to-the-QB's-helmet rule.

This game just reinforced my desire to see our offensive line position coach gone after the Super Bowl, as well as my hope that Ted Thompson will draft another stout offensive lineman in the first round and a solid possession wide receiver somewhere in the 2nd through 4th. It's actually amazing Starks was able to grind out 74 yards on the ground. The defense was in our backfield on essentially just about every single play. There were several plays that looked like they should have been tackles for loss that Starks somehow managed to turn into no gain or gain of one. Overall, the line should be embarrassed by their performance on this, the second-biggest stage the game has to offer.

As I've said many times, I love the drama and excitement of close games. I love the nailbiters. Obviously, I'll take a blowout any day, but we all know that isn't Mike McCarthy's typical style.

Watching these Packers games is like getting a good cardiovascular workout while drinking beer. :D

Two things. First, the hand-to-helmet contact came from Briggs on the play, not Peppers. Julius got there first, but the hand to the helmet happened when Briggs came in on the hit.

Second, "we all know that isn't Mike McCarthy's typical style." I'm a little extra salty about this type of rhetoric. Even I questioned some of the playcalls there in the second half, but again, it comes down to execution more than anything. It isn't fair to pin it on McCarthy and imply that he prefers nailbiters. Sure there have been more than a share of close games this season, but emphatic wins over Atlanta, New York, Dallas, Minnesota, San Fran, Buffalo ... they paint an overall picture.

The Packers have never trailed more than 7 points this season. Here we have the tendency to give credit to seemingly everybody except for the head coach. I am thankful for Capers, Thompson, Rodgers/Matthews/Woodson/Jennings/Raji/Jenkins/Driver/etc. just as much as the next guy. I am also thankful for McCarthy.

I don't mean to sound pissy. At this point, I think it's clear how I feel.
