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.

Mucky Tundra (19h) : @AaronNagler · 2m Both Jordan Love and Malik Willis were Limited participants at Packers practice today.

Zero2Cool (22h) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. 🤷 Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.

Zero2Cool (22h) : HUMP DAY

beast (22h) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast

beast (22h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (22h) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (22h) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (22h) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (22h) : I guess I see players in Packers Hall come way later

beast (22h) : Yeah, usually teams hall of fames are a much lower bar than the NFL

Zero2Cool (22h) : is it uncommon for Hall before Ring?

Zero2Cool (23h) : S Xavier McKinney named first-team All-Pro by NFLPA

beast (8-Jan) : I missed it, sorry, but he got into the NFL Hall of Fame years before that

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Jones took his sweet ole time!

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (8-Jan) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (8-Jan) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (8-Jan) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : The winners page that is

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I was not hoping for that. It messes up the page lol

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3.

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : congrats beast on 2024 !

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : congrats porky on winning 2023 pick'em! (oops sorry)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : That might be it for the Vikings

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Oh so the refs do know what intentional grounding is

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I'm hoping for BLOODBATH. Pummel one another.

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : 8 people in pick'em would have won any year with their total lol
