Classic Mike McCarthy Choke.

Yeah, I know we won, and I'll take it. But THIS is exactly what I'm talking about when I bitch about Mike getting emotionally tight when it matters. Then his team tightens up and people start dropping the ball, etc.

Mike is a very good coach, but this is his biggest weakness. He has no concept of sports psychology.

Maybe the wind was a bigger factor than we realized. We dominated the 3rd Q, Bears the 4th.

Dunno. But this is a pattern with Mike's teams, imo.

Well, if this was a classic Mike McCarthy choke,
I'LL TAKE IT EVERY TIME!
Who won the Damn game?
THE PACKERS!

Anyone ever think playing in all these tough, close games will only make The Packers better if they do get in the playoffs?

There's a fine line between winning and losing in the NFL.

The Packers have found themselves on the right side of that line the past 4 games.

Enjoy the victory tonight, then its time to move on to The Vikings!
Still a lot of work to do.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Na, a classic McCarthy Choke ends with a missed FG at the end then a TD given up on 1st overtime possession.

I am very happy with the win but the 4th quarter was very concerning. The O went 3 and out multiple times and the D was unable to stop the Bears at all. There has to be a moment where the head coach at least tries to modify the mental state of failure of the team. I wasn't at the game so maybe he did and the broadcast just didnt cover it.

Credit to the Packers D with the turnovers. We all know this game would have been terribly ugly without them.

How about the other Choke Meister, Capers? Playing zone, a soft one at that too.

Mucky Tundra (18h) : happy birthday dhazer

TheKanataThrilla (20h) : Exactly buck...Washington came up with the ball. It is just a shitty coincidence one week later

buckeyepackfan (20h) : I forgot, they corrected the call a week later. Lol btw HAPPY BIRTHDAY dhazer!

buckeyepackfan (20h) : That brings up the question, why wasn't Nixon down by contact? I think that was the point Kanata was making.

buckeyepackfan (20h) : Turnovers rule, win the turnover battle, win the game.

packerfanoutwest (20h) : well, he was

TheKanataThrilla (20h) : Eagles down by contact on the fumble....fuck you NFL

beast (21h) : Eagles sure get a lot of fumbles on kickoffs

Mucky Tundra (22h) : This game looks too big for Washington

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : that being said, The Ravens are the Browns

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : Browns, Dolphins have longest AFC Championship droughts

packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : As of today, Cowboys have longest NFC Championship drought,

beast (26-Jan) : Someone pointed out, with Raiders hiring Carroll, the division games between Carroll and Jim Harbaugh are back on (who can whine more games)

beast (26-Jan) : I'm confused, Pete Carroll and Brian Schottenheimer? When Todd Monken, Joe Brady, Kellen Moore, Kliff Kingsbury and Zac Robinson are availab

Zero2Cool (25-Jan) : Any reason I'm catching a shot here about my intelligence?

Martha Careful (25-Jan) : thank you Mucky for sticking up for me

Martha Careful (25-Jan) : some of those people are smarter than you zero. However Pete Carroll is not

Mucky Tundra (24-Jan) : Rude!

beast (24-Jan) : Martha? 😋

Zero2Cool (24-Jan) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.

dfosterf (24-Jan) : I'm going with a combination of the two.

beast (24-Jan) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you

wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious

beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.
