Pre-game Conversation starter: Hey, anyone out there who was sure Tim Boyle was 'clearly' the best back up QB option the packers have had in years want to comment on Tim Boyle's performance a few weeks ago vs. the Browns?

Nice start. Way to start sharp at home against the Bears. Three and out and we allowed a long punt return. Nice.😖😠

That's an ugly first drive by the offense and poor punt coverage gave up a long punt return.

Leatherhead

Why does the coach have to tell the fans to make noise?
If Chicago scores a TD, we should call a timeout and have everyone check their nuts.
A FG. A half a stop.

He’s only flapping one arm tonight. If he would have flapped both , they would have had a full stop.

Because lambeau field’s home crowd is the most lifeless in the nfl. don’t want to be an ageist, but soooo many old fogies sitting on their season tickets who don’t whoop, holler, or make any noise… unless somebody else is, then they yell at the loud whipper-snappers to “Sit down!!”

A legitimate #2 , superduper WR, would have caught that better than Lazard.
Thegreatreynoldo
December 12, 2021 at 07:59 pm
The problem arguably is not having a second superduper who can get open. Some WRs have issues with drops, but superdupers get open in the first place while running the route well.
The horns on my head feel good, ready to butt heads.

Good to see LaFleur has them looking sharp after the bye.

And the defense does?
Thegreatreynoldo
December 12, 2021 at 07:56 pm
Great throw into quadruple coverage, but AR just dropped in to Lazard. No room to run, which I thought would be a weakness for Chicago. So far, no go. Protection has been adequate, but the ball isn't coming out. I am assuming good coverage.

Lazard for the TD. A legit #2 would have been more open, and caught it better.

December 12, 2021 at 08:23 pm
Kevin King would have put more drama into the catch itself and then high stepped in. Still, I suppose it is a good play by Rasul.

Bears are fired up and not playing afraid tonight. The issue with Field's ribs still being injured obviously was used to throw off the Packers D.
dobber
December 12, 2021 at 08:38 pm
If you've ever had broken or bruised ribs, you know they don't get better fast...but he's probably been shot up and isn't feeling anything.
That's Nijman down.
IN Edit--Glad to be wrong, but I don't know how the Packers can handle any more injuries to this OL. They're lucky to have a guy like Kelly just hanging around.
Thegreatreynoldo

hanson, Braden and Kelly are the available guys.

December 12, 2021 at 11:08 pm
Yeah.. I had a single cracked rib - which I cracked from violent coughing when I was sick with a rough case of pneumonia. Worst two months of my life. Was in coughing spasms just about every 4-5 minutes. Brutal.
When Ty Montgomery was playing RB through broken ribs, I was absolutely floored. Just coughing was tear-inducing pain. I can’t imagine playing contact sports.

Did our RBs not return from the bye week? Why aren’t we running the ball? This game plan doesn’t make any sense, not to mention that it’s just not working.
The Bears are playing aggressively, we should be running at them to take the game to them. Thanks, Since ‘61

First Half:
1) Once again offensive starts slow
2) Our ST teams other than punter is an embarrassment
3) Bears came to play, their offensive play calling has been sound and creative
4) Rodgers holding the ball to long
5) Pack gave up on the run to early
6) AR continues to force the long ball
PS: FIRE THE ST COACH NOW!!!!!!!!

Grant said: I led the league in punt return average last year. Doing okay so far but I haven't played GB. I will get well.
OOB kickoff. Several returns. What does it take to get a ST coordinator fired?
Oppy
December 12, 2021 at 11:04 pm
I think the answer is “a replacement”.
Firing a guy because he’s doing a bad job doesn’t help if you don’t have a replacement.

I’m tired of watching Kenny Clark give up running after Fields when Clark clearly has the corner angle and could stop Fields from racing down the sidelines. Multiple times. Pathetic.

Dude, if you're complaining about Kenny Clark not taking down Justin Fields on the -sidelines-, I suggest you take a good look at the comparison between Kenny Clark's and Justin Fields' combine results.

Without this defense the packers have 7 less points, too
edp1959

Defense gave up 17 and scored 7, that’s a loss. But of course that to complicated for you to understand.
Oppy
December 12, 2021 at 11:45 pm
They also handed the offense another 7 with a ball recovered inside the opponent’s 20.
And put the clamps on in the second half.
Not their best showing, but it wasn’t the end of the world.
I like how you disappeared and shut the fuck up for almost 6 weeks while the defense was basically winning games for the packers. Can we revisit that again?
This Defense didn't get to be 5th in the league in points allowed by being the horrendous sieve you want to believe they are.

I mean, I hear what you're saying, but coulda-woulda-shoulda is a fool's errand.
I mean, if we ran the ball more in the first half, we might have lost dillon and jones both to season ending ACL injuries.

Offenses look much better when they can run off RT for 11, then off LT for 8 or so, then up the middle for 5. Voila - suddenly quick passes to the flat turn into yards.
I thought signing Kelly was sheer brilliance by Gute. Time for Kelly to justify that belief. So far, looks good.
Edit: Okay, so a holding call. Play to Big dog in the middle and a jet sweep to Lazard erases a 1st and 20. Still, it's a hold but if he can hold up, that would be big.

Douglas is the only DB that knows how to catch a ball.

Preston Smith's 6th sack is worth $500K to him.
He needs 8 for $1.25M.

Have we fired the ST coach yet?????????????????????????? This guy continues to carry the mantle for incompetence of Packer ST coaches.

Savage inexplicably doesn't know the rule that he can force a WR out of bounds before he comes down with his feet. Packers are overall mentally defficient from the 2 weeks off IMO.

MLF, you have to select competence over color.... MLK Jr. if he was a Packer fan would support you.

Packers' specials teams are truly "special".

Absolutely incredible that we won this game amidst the total meltdown of special teams and our defense in the first half.
Got to give it up to the coach for keeping the players calm and focused in the second half.

Thumbs up, but the ST meltdown lasted 4 quarters.

The Bears still suck and so do our "SPECIAL" teams. Thank goodness we were able to overcome our own special team deficiencies. This game would not have been remotely close except for that. Can we PLEASE just fire the special teams coach???? Could they be worse?!

Our ST coach could cost us a playoff game or worse the Super Bowl. Replace him now and turn this disaster around.

Looks like the only thing that will get ST coach fired is if he brought back Bostick.
There might be a reason not to fire a coach mid season, but there are also reasons to do just that.
Do Gute/MLF want to risk losing in the playoffs due to a special teams mistake?

You need to have a replacement coach.
If you don't have a replacement coach, what are you going to do? Burden another coach to take over all ST coaching responsibilities while still holding his own? That doesn't work out well. Sure, ST may improve somewhat, but how does the coaches' other duties suffer?
Also logistical and procedural issues with a new guy stepping into the fold if he's from outside the organization (which he'd almost have to be.).
It's not as easy to replace a coach mid-season- especially something as specialized as ST coach.
Does dude deserve to be fired right now, as in yesterday? You bet.
But firing him right now because he deserves to be fired right now doesn't mean it's going to improve anything.
Gotta have a replacement.

I don't dislike Drayton he was at the citadel a long time , 10 years maybe but he is not a good special teams coach and unfortunately the Packers won't fire a black coach because of quotas .

"The Rooney Rule is a National Football League policy that requires league teams to interview ethnic-minority candidates for head coaching and senior football operation jobs. It is an example of affirmative action, ****even though there is no hiring quota or hiring preference given to minorities, only an interviewing quota"****

Now, PLEASE, Lphill.. Shut your ignorant mouth and go crawl back under the rock you came out from under.

It was a win and I will take it. Whenever the Packers take time off such as pre-season or a bye week they up laying an egg. Hope Turner's knee injury isn't serious.
On a side note the fact MLF is only 2 games from tying George Seifert for the most wins (38) of any NFL coach in their first three seasons is pretty remarkable. I would think with 4 games left he should own that record.
