Packers frequently looked like they were not double teaming Mack.  With that kind of stupid arrogance they deserve to lose.

Packers' RT Spriggs was the guy the Bears were rumored to be taking in the 2nd round of the 2016 draft.  Packers traded up one pick before the Bears pick and took  him.  Bears then traded down when their pick came up next.

I think most Packers fans would agree that he has been a disappointment.  Bears ended up with an extra mid round pick and took Cody Whitehair later in round 2.

Agree about the packer holding. Some of it was so blatant. How the heck do they not call that? Unreal!!

Also, agree about Trubisky, played solid, much better than last game. One comment about Chase Daniels. If you think about some of the backups we've had, Chase is head and shoulders above them. Actually, Chase is much better than most of the starters we've had. I b!tch about Chase just like the rest, but realistically, he ain't bad for a backup. He fukked some things up at the end of the Giants game, but he also made some decent throws.

Totally agree with you on Chase.  Even with the pick 6 he could have won that Giants game if he wouldn't have mishandled those snaps. 

But I was more pointing out the athleticism of Trubisky yesterday, most NFL QBs not just Daniel, most starting QBs, don't escape a couple of those Packer blitzes yesterday.

Yep - Chase can run the show - no question. He just does not have the skills Trubisky has. Daniels is not mobile. Trubisky was very rusty against the Rams - I still think he could played against the Giants - oh well.

Agree about Mitch having the skills and mobility. Giving kudos to Pace and Nagy for not sticking us with a total boob as backup. I look at the eagles with Foles, what a luxury that is. Not saying Chase is a Foles but he is a competent backup. I hope we don't need to see him the rest of the year though..

I wouldn't mind seeing Chase in the 2nd half of a Viking beat down that Mitch is leading and we decide to rest our starters in the 2nd half!

It's interesting listening to the Dallas media on the radio.  One week it's all about the Cowboys going to the Super Bowl - this week it's back to firing their head coach and finding a new QB.  Oh well.

But when the talk comes to playoff teams and their chances they like the Bears but totally disrespect Trubisky.   It's not just the local Dallas talk radio.  Nationally it's the same thing.  Bears will do well as long as Trubisky isn't the reason they lose but he doesn't have to be the reason they win.
Really?  Who is going to complete the pass on 3rd down?  Kahlil Mack?  Tarik Cohen? 

I'm hoping Trubisky makes these talking heads STF up.

I don't know...ask Zach Miller or Anthony Miller what they think of Tarik's QB skills...

Well the Cowboys looked unbeatable in their game a week ago then shut out Sunday.  I wouldn't want to face the defense they had a week ago.

Two backup guards...a backup center...they're starting LT is playing with one arm.   And they wonder why their QB keeps getting sacked and blame the play caller?

They're defense gave up 16 to the Colts - that should be enough for a win in this league.

found this in the Trib to put you in a festive mood:

Club Dub rockin’

The Bears finished their regular-season home schedule 7-1, and after a division-clinching victory over their archrival, they let it all hang out in the postgame party.

Now imagine the scene after a playoff victory.

Tru once again throws off and they have to punt.

Nice pass to Robinson deep! If I'm the coach, I get quite a few deep routes this game, get Trubisky some 'air time' so he can get some confidence going in to the playoffs.
