Packers front line back together again
 For the first time in nearly a month - 27 days to be exact - the Green Bay Packers took the field with their starting offensive line intact.

Well, it really wasn't in public.   He said it in front of a group of  GB fans.  I don't think that it was really outrageous to make the statement under those circumstances,, but somebody got hold of the statement and got it published.

I think it is really whiney to play that up as the poor little kid who is crushed by that.  I say "grow up".  Maybe he ought to follow a more gentle sport, like needlework.

Bears won't  win because of that comment. If they win  it will be because the Bears outplay GB.  Could happen with the injuries and penalized GB players and very great rivalry.

Loved his father.   Don't care for the kid if he really wrote that.

Tom Brady: a whiny cheater.  Now he acts like he was mistreated and really is a good, straight arrow.  LMAO.  Go ahead, cheater.  Maybe a judge will get you off, again.

Packers must plan for athletic Martellus Bennett
 From Tony Gonzalez to Antonio Gates to Jimmy Graham to Julius Thomas, the trend lives on, and Sunday the Green Bay Packers will face another former basketball standout in Martellus Bennett of the Chicago Bears.

Injury News

Morgan Burnett looking iffy for Sunday

In a secondary that is suddenly overflowing with youth, the Packers really need to have a veteran presence to hold it all together.  So knowing safety Morgan Burnett may not play due to a nagging calf injury is not the news they want to hear.  Not only the most experienced defensive back they have, he’s also a key part of their run defense (+10.1 PFF rating in 2014).





Alshon Jeffery progressing well

Having been declared “day-to-day” for three weeks, it was heartening for the Bears to see their best wide receiver in Alshon Jeffery back on the field.  Without him, the passing offense has struggled to get anything going.  Recent indications are his own calf problem is healing well and odds are good he should be able to play barring a setback.

Key Matchups

Randall Cobb vs. Kyle Fuller

Few players on the Packers roster have given the Bears fits more than Randall Cobb.  The speedy Packers receiver has basically had his way with them the past couple years.  So far nobody has stepped up to stop him.  All eyes are now fixed on second-year corner Kyle Fuller.  A 1st round pick last season, he’s expected to take on a big role this year.  Cobb will be his first assignment.

How each performs will greatly determine the outcome.

Packers LBs vs. Matt Forte

Two key defensive linemen in Letroy Guion and Datone Jones will be out for the game due to suspension.  That leaves the Packers front awfully thin, and the burden of stopping the run even heavier on their linebackers.  Matt Forte has really given them problems at Soldier Field the past two years.  Mistakes can be ill-afforded with the added issues in the secondary.

Packers will load up to stop Forte and force Cutler into obvious passing situations where they've had success in the past.  Bears need a healthy Jeffery to even stand a chance...sounds like he can now run but I have no idea what his real problem was.  And it would be nice to see Marques Wilson step up - he was hugely disappointing last season.  They say he is 6-4 but he plays smaller. 

I wouldn't be surprised to see some of Jacquizz Rodgers and Jeremy Langford get into the mix - maybe our O-line can do something going against a somewhat depleted Packer front.

I hope Long is STARTS at RT - and I don't care who is at guard.  I'd even take Leno.  Just don't start him at RT.  Either way it looks like a conservative passing offense with short passes to Royal and Bennett and I just don't know if Jeffery is ready to go deep. 

Defensively, I think the Bears will pressure Rodgers.  But that doesn't mean our DBs will be able to cover anybody.  And I don't know if our front seven can stop Lacy consistently.  Alan Ball, Antrell Rolle, Adrian Amos and Kyle Fuller - cover somebody!

Prediction:  Bears have nothing to lose - play aggressive and who knows what happens.

Packers are going to kill them. If we had all of our receivers healthy including White we might have a chance.  With no deep threat and a bunch of rookies and gimpy receivers no way. 

Get after Rodgers and gamble.  I would rather they lose by 30 and put Rodgers in the dirt multiple times then let him sit back there and pick them apart and lose by 17.
