The NFL Thread (with added College Football)

[Proposition Joe]

Three drives, three touchdowns. Ten passes, ten complete.

Welcome to every Packers v Bears game for the last twenty years.

Yep. The Packers never punt in this fixture.

I reckon Rodgers should start facing away from the line of scrimmage and just hoy the ball over his head wedding garland style. He'll still end up with close to a 100% completion record.

Bears at least competed in the second half. You have to convert redzone changes and you can't drop the very few interception changes Rodgers gives you.

Still, doesn't matter. It's Highbury 1981 all over again! Thank you, you beautiful sexy Los Angeles Rams!

Will Kamara be back for the weekend?

Will Kamara be back for the weekend?

Yes.  If the game had been the day before, he wouldn't have been.

I really want the Packers to get to the Super Bowl, but part of me wants it to be not this season. Watching at home on my own in Brum in the middle of the night this year or in another year in a bar in Green Bay or the host city seems worth the wait. And the disappointment.

Your playoff picture for the upcoming weekend.....

Sat:
Colts @ Bills
Rams @ Seahawks
Buccaneers @ Washington

Sun:
Bears @ Saints
Ravens @ Titans
Browns @ Steelers

Green Bay and Kansas get a bye.

[Meanwood Villa]

Looking at those I think there's clear favourites in every match. Will be a shock if any of Colts, Rams, WFT, Titans, Bears and Browns win. Any given Sunday though ...

[cdbearsfan]

Well, after restricting Rodgers to his worst ever performance against the Bears, just 965 yards for 12 touchdowns, I'll be amazed if we don't saunter past Brees and Rodgers on our way to Super Bowl glory.

[Meanwood Villa]

No shocks yet, as predicted. Although Colts could easily have won.

Can the Bears turn the tide?

[Proposition Joe]

Ravens vs Titans was fun, especially watching Lamar Jackson in action.

Fingers crossed for the Bears, but not holding out too much hope.

[Proposition Joe]

Either way, I would expect Trubisky to be replaced in the post season.

[cdbearsfan]

Seems like we have to beat the Saints and the officials.

[Richard]

Yep they are clearly desperate to give Brees a nice farewell play off run !

The Bears are terrible at offense

The Bears are terrible at offense

It doesn't help when you drop a sitter in the end zone. But yeah, it's an achievement in itself for the Bears to get a new set of downs with a possession, let alone a score.
