I thought we started well on the first drive and could have done better in the red zone. The performance of the defense has been woeful. We have to do better on 3rd down. Their touchdowns have been far too easy. We need to stay positive. There is plenty of time left in the game.

Dennis Allen, you are FIRED. What an embarrassing effort from this defense. This one is turning into a laugher we will have to sit on for 9 months.

I didn’t like the last pass, but the interception, if I’m correct on the placement, turned out to be better than a good punt.

That's the problem with this offense. They can move the ball, but way too inconsistent and way too many 3 and outs at the worst possible times. This game is over if the Bears allow another TD by the Packers. This is just about exactly the way I thought this game would go. Bears never fail to disappoint.

Hopefully Brisker is OK and Allen gets his act together. Poor start for the defense. No pressure from the dline. It’s going to be a long game, so no need to panic. It’s now up to us to put together a drive to match them and give the defense a rest. I am a bit worried about how slow Johnson looks in coverage.

Offense looked good. Defense sucked. It's obvious JJ isn't the cover corner he was when he was given his big-buck extension.

I don't think GB had a play gain less than 5 yards. They did whatever they wanted, no answer from DA and the defense.

Defense could not stop anything. Damn.

Solid first drive, chewed up some time and got points. 3-0 Bears.

It’s 01:00 in the morning in the UK and I’m up and watching the game. I could you taped it and watched the game in the morning, but excitement got the better of me. I know it will be worth it. I expect to be tired tomorrow, especially because I’m travelling to Manchester to watch United play Brighton at Old Trafford in the FA Cup. I fully expect Johnson to get his second win of the season against the Packers, as per his statement, and therefore ram it down Lafleur’s throat LOL I still cannot believe what we have done this years, let’s go Bears.

Biggest, most important game for the franchise in a LONG time. Not just to win the WC round playoff game, but to beat the Packers to do it. Let's not beat em at the last second, lets dominate them and break their will. That's what I want. a STATEMENT win.

Let’s go bears!!!

Go Bears, I can’t wait to watch us smash the Packers.

No chance Poles is leaving or a team is trading for him. They are good friends but Poles isn’t leaving for that. I do think it’s pretty likely Cunningham goes. And no one is trading a 1st round pick for Poles.

I didnt see the rumors - Ashkum did, I was just playing with the idea. It sounds far fetched for the reasons you just said, but id be all for it of course.

Those are legit rumors or wild speculation on the internet? There'd be way more involved than the league-sourced two 3rd Rd picks, likely at least one 1st Rd pick if not more. That would in effect be Poles giving up his future draft capital for his new rebuilding job in Atlanta. He'd also be saying he made a mistake with the Williams pick and that he now thinks Penix is the better QB option. If we get anything out of Atlanta make it Bijan Robinson. Matt Ryan and whoever (Cunningham) are not giving up the one elite talent they've got on offense.

It's official, Ryan has been hired as President of Football Operations for the Falcons: Franchise passing leader Matt Ryan returning to the Falcons as president of football

I also think it is sort of ridiculous to create a new "position" on the All-Pro team called "All Purpose" and then give it to a player that already won an award. Bijan got 1st Team All-Pro for RB, then 2nd team for All Purpose. McCaffrey got 1st Team All Purpose, but did not get 2nd Team RB, that went to James Cook. To me, this makes no sense. If McCaffrey was the best all-purpose player and he is a RB, then he is the top RB too. How can McCaffrey be the top All Purpose player, but not the top RB, but Bijan can be the top RB and the 2nd best All Purpose player? That is just silly. This is the first year they have awarded it, and I think they really messed up and set a bad precedent for the future of the award. How would this ever not go to a RB who has a high volume of carries and receptions?

Thuney and Byard make 1st Team, Wright makes 2nd team. I thought Dalman had a chance at Center. No one else on defense makes sense as Wright has been bad in coverage but with a lot of turnovers. On offense, Dalman feels like the only real snub considering the packed field at the skill positions. Byard is a free agent, and neither of the Safeties are signed beyond this year.

i've seen this coming for some time now. these greedy B;stard owners and corporate NFL are making this sport a pay-per-view item. they enjoy tax benefits from us but that is not enough, they want more. soon, all local games are going to be broadcast on some pay channel with the 'possible' exception of the ability to watch out of conference games just like they did with college football. all playoff games will be PPV. soon you will even have to pay to watch the SB. if something isn't done soon you can kiss watching NFL games over the air in local broadcasts in your area goodbye. below is an email i sent to God-ell and his cronie Anna Isaacson. if you agree with this write to them and your representatives in washington and even local state reps. if you feel motivated to copy and paste or revise some of the email i sent on every sports board you frequent. enough is freaking enough!!!!! EDIT: i am also going to send my displeasure to the bears and their owners who must have ok'd this crap. you should do the same. ============== support@nfl.com - Contact Roger Goodell NFL Commissioner Anna.Isaacson@nfl.com - NFL's VP of Social Responsibility How Much Greed Is Enough For You People? Roger Goodell; Anna Isaacson; This is the way you treat your fans of decades by jamming it down our throats to pay to watch the NFL? The fans that brought you to the pinnacle of professional sports you just wipe your feet on for more personal gain? If you want to turn the NFL into a cash cow for the big streaming corporations then it's ALSO time for the corporate NFL to be turned off of the taxpayers dole. $3.2 billion in federal taxpayer dollars has been used to finance professional sports stadiums since 2000. This dole is for some of the richest corporations and highest paid CEO's in the United States. Yet our tax dollars aren't enough to satisfy your/their draconian greed? The Tax Reform Act of 1986 wanted to end the exemptions for private use, including stadiums. Instead, the bill inadvertently created a loophole allowing stadiums to be backed by tax-free public bonds. It's time that loophole was CLOSED. Let the billionaire owners and corporate NFL pay their share instead of us. I know a letter/email is going out to my representatives in Washington to shut off any and all taxpayer support or funding that the NFL may glean. As for myself? I have stopped watching Major League Baseball because of the greed and stupidity. I have stopped watching College Football since they now require me to pay a cable company to watch local teams. I have watched and promoted the NFL for over 65 years. I have purchased thousands of dollars over this span of time in merchandise and game tickets. I will never purchase any Pay-Per-View venue to watch the NFL. I will never purchase a pennies worth of NFL sponsored products. I will never purchase another game ticket and I will boycott all advertisers on your broadcasts after informing them of the reason why. So welcome to the average persons cost of doing business as you float around on your yachts. Thanks for nothing, xxxxx xxxxx

yes please - Id love that. Make it that Atlanta signs Cunningham, then trades him for Poles - we get the compensatory picks too then LOL

Matt Ryan and Ryan Poles played at Boston College together. Ive heard the rumor of Atlanta trading for Poles and the Bears promote Ian.

thank you

Yeah ones gonna be Pres and the other ones gonna be GM, and theyre just figuring it out. If it was me, I think the player goes President, and the asst GM goes GM.
