Packers outplay Bears, still lose

Well, this was further proof not only that the Packers are a bunch of chokers, but also that they have terrible luck. That turnover on the punt early in the second half was pure luck for the Bears, and it changed the game. And then near the end the Bears picked up the first down by about an inch on fourth down.

But there were plenty of choke jobs as well, especially by Mason Crosby, who is now 0 for 2 this year on game-winning field goal attempts. That one was so low that it probably would've missed even if it hadn't been blocked. Just a terrible kick. And A.J. Hawk falling on his ass to allow that final first down for the Bears. Just a killer.

But hey, at least it will get them better draft position.

I want to die right now. How can a team do so well to only let us down in the end so many times. Has a team ever been this frustrating before? I mean, if they had been blown out I would've been like "oh well" but this? I feel like ALL luck that happened in that game went in the Bears favor.

If we can't get into the playoffs then we may as well embarrass ourselves over and over 🙂

I'm really worried about the confidence of our D. We lose another game where they couldn't get the big time stop. The D has talent, but after so many losses in the same way, I'm concerned this doesn't shatter the confidence of our players and carry into next season.

Also, I'd like to add "Aaroun Rouse is not a starting caliber Safety," as one of the announcers said. Totally agree.

We have all the signs of a team playing without confidence, ill prepared, and have many issues with coaching/ mental aspects of the game..

We found a new way to lose.. sad season.. sad.

Tell me again how Rodgers choked?

Did he block the game winning kick?

Look on the bright side: We have the most creative team in the league for concocting novel ways to lose.

It's such a comedy of errors we almost have to be proud of them.

This whole season is the best evidence I've seen yet that there is a god....and that he periodically takes pleasure in fucking people over.

Whatever I guess. It is what it is and it's almost becoming comical at this point. Sigh.

Zero2Cool (1h) : new site fan shout post fast

wpr (4h) : Slow posting in Fan shout.

wpr (4h) : Only 4

Zero2Cool (6h) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!

dfosterf (7h) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am

wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?
