This team has no one stepping up and being the man.. Mack should be one of those guys... We gave a lot for Mack, I'm not seeing a valuable return. This was a game Mack needed to step it up. We're missing a lot of opportunity on offense. With a decent line we'd be talking about how great our rookie running back is. Or how Mitch is really starting to come around. I still think it's mostly the O line coach.. But then to be honest, WTF is up with Leno..

Pretty sure that is a rule in college not the NFL.  I see NFL players running right up to the punt returner all the time.  Also he did not signal fair catch.

They showed an angle that clearly showed a line of green between his foot and the sidelines.  All water under the bridge now.  It is just the typical treatment by the refs that every team gets when they play the Packers.  Can't wait until Rodgers retires so they can go back to sucking for the next 20 years plus.

I think I accidently edited Dave's post instead of quoting it in a reply.  Sorry for any confusion.

Hicks was playing on pure heart today.  I would say he stepped up big time.

He looked like he was having fun when he wasn't writhing in pain from his injury.  But then he would go right back out there.

Dave, he didn't call for a fair catch.  If he had you would be right.

The ball got there then Patterson lit him up!  It was a perfectly timed hit.  The receiver also was not moving forward, he was standing there waiting for the ball.

Should not have been a penalty.

I know he didn’t call for a fair catch. That doesn’t matter.

Read Article 1 of the rules I posted. You have to give the receiver the opportunity to catch the ball.

CP did that. It was timed perfectly. The refs blew the call.

davebear, I agree with Pekin, I saw a line of green between his foot & the white out of bounds.

It was a good play on Pattersons part and a blown call on the refs, but that's just how this season has gone...not much in favor of the Bears in anything....

Mack would have a lot more mojo if the offense gave at least an AVERAGE effort

I have a hard time giving Mack a pass for any reason other than injury..

I don't condone his effort - but I understand...
