Close one again this week

Things to look for: Offense
-Clifton vs Peppers (Pack O-line vs Bears D-line)
Clifton does a pretty damn good job against Peppers and I hope he lays everything on the line this game. Overall, the line needs to give Rodgers time in the pocket while his receivers get separation. Rodgers having to scramble around won't help.

-Finley vs Coverage
Finley should have a field day with the Cover 2. He needs a big game.

-Rush offense
Starks is averaging 6.8 YPC and Grant is averaging 4.3 YPC. Give them the ball early and make the Bears think run, setting up the deep PA.

Things to look for: Defense
-Stop the biggest threat
Matt Forte is the Bears offense. Packers are 6th overall in rush defense, but he is the biggest threat in the pass game. Packers struggled against covering Sproles and though Forte isn't as fast, the Bears may try to exploit this.

-Get to Cutler
Bears offensive line is just terrible. Capers will hopefully throw in some nice blitz packages against them and get to Cutler often. Saints crushed Cutler and the Packers defense should do the same. Cutler makes dumb mistakes under pressure

-Close gaps, form tackling
When Cutler or Forte are allowed to run in circles with the ball in their hands, they make something happen. Packers defense needs to close the gaps and tackle these guys on the first attempt. If they break 1 or 2 tackles, they always find ways to make it to the end zone.

-Turnovers
Capitalize on mistakes made (mostly by Cutler being pressured). Big turnover factor will play into winning the game.

And as always....DON'T KICK IT TO HESTER!

Packers win 24-13. 3-0.

A big thing that could help that is getting the running game going as you said. Also last year in the NFC Champs game most remember Lang going in at LT and getting beat bad for a series. BUT Lang stayed in one or two more series and MM changed the game plan and had them running and Lang was pushing Peppers around in the run game. I just wonder about the idea of having a running package where Newhouse comes in for Clifton at LT and they become a run first team in that package. Just thought it'd be a nice change up that might catch them off guard and then play action pass should then work.

Packers also struggled with RB Jonathan Stewart in the passing game. Of course they were trying to limit Steve Smith, two receiving TEs and keep a spy on Newton making sure he didn't take off and run... which the Bears might not have all those threats for the Packers to focus on become the RB.

Spend some time over at the Green Bay Press Gazette or JSonline. I bet you come away feeling pretty slimy too. No team has a monopoly on idiotic fans.

You won't have to search for me after the game this Sunday. I'm a Bears fan and I consider myself to be well behaved here on your board. The base core of Packer fans who inhabit this forum are ( Yes I'm really saying it ) football saavy and have an above average grasp of gridiron intelligence.

Look, I'm not some Italian Beef eatin' Guido meatball Bears fans who generalizes everything into a three word sentences like "The Packers Suck" I know football, and I know that this years Bears team is Most likely going to finish below 500.

But.....I still want them to do the unlikely this weekend, kick your Packer Asses![duh]

I love Bears week. I've been counting down on my tumblr www.dalezawada.com with funny pics(and one really mean one about Urlacher's mom).

The trash talking is always fun. We should be able to smash Jay Cutler good but I have a bad feeling about this week. I honestly think we're going to lose this one. Then we win against Denver and go 3-1.

Here's to hoping I'm wrong as usual!

One thing I am confident about in this game is Packers redzone defense vs. Bears redzone offense. Even if the Bears dink their way down the field, there is a good chance that they are held to a field goal or nothing.

I have too much faith in our offense to think the Packers lose this one. Though, I wouldn't be surprised if we did lose. These games just never come easy. [aiee]

beast (4h) : Wow, 95% drop in investment revenue? Would be interesting to hear the details of why...

dfosterf (25-Jul) : It's my one day deal complaint dept. on shareholder meeting day

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : In your face, HBO!

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @ByRyanWood Mark Murphy: “A great source of pride of mine is that we were never on Hard Knocks.”

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : *years

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @mattschneidman Mark Murphy says he anticipates “many Packers games” being played in Germany, Ireland and/or the U.K. over the next 5-10 yea

dfosterf (25-Jul) : *cafeteria* I have hit my head also, so I sympathize

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : tbh I didn't hear of his passing

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Cosby Show. Malcom Jamal Warner I think is real name

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : How is Theo alliteration?

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Bad week for people whose names are alliterations

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hulk Hogan gone too.

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Oh, it's toe injury

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hope it's not serious. that would stink

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Sounds like an ankle not a knee for Fields

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Ya Flaccp on Browns

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Maybe Tyrod Taylor instead

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : He's on Browns, right?

dfosterf (24-Jul) : They would probably go with Flacco is my guess if Fields out

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Fleece 'em again!

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Malik Willis might be someone Jets come after

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Packers introduce 1923-inspired classic uniform, leather-look helmet

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Both LB Quay Walker and Rookie DB Micah Robinson have passed their physicals

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Happy to see site feels more snappy snappy

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : No sir. I did not.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?

wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

Mucky Tundra (23-Jul) : Wasn't the locker room just updated like 6 or 7 years ago?

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : I have forum updated on different site. We'll see how this one goes before going to that

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Elgton Jenkins has a back injury, is expect to end contract dispute

wpr (23-Jul) : It's funny the PA complained about the locker room. It wasn't that long ago it was top shelf. Things change in a hurry.

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.
