Bears/Packers playoff week

This is such a great picture, would love to get a framed print of it…
Posted by OB25
|
Do we know what year/game this pic was from?*
Posted by RSMBob
|
It's definitely this year and I assume it's from Saturday night*
Posted by UIHuskie
|
has the wildcard logos at the 25. it's from saturday. *

|
O&B lights on the colonnades, on the Field... gotta be last Saturday.
Posted by osklister
|
I know it's in vain but I like how everyone agrees that Soldier Field is an awesome site
Posted by Warrin'_Illini
|
It looks great in a drone shot, but it’s a terrible site from a practical standpoint.
Posted by OB25
|
It's a cluster but if the city/state had their act together there would be transp. solutions.
Posted by gullit
|
It's definitely not the city/state that is holding up that project, which is not going "nowhere"
Posted by longsnapper
|
that lot is where the bears stadium should have gone*
Posted by VIV
|
We should just build a parking lot on the water.*
Posted by Warrin'_Illini
|
Right after we build the airport in the lake... well, parking lots are a natural.
Posted by osklister
|
the site is fantastic
Posted by VIV
|
Our QB is the Iceman. We need to keep an outdoor stadium for at least the length of his reign.*
Posted by Warrin'_Illini
|
no. just no
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
we wont*

Just save your money until you can get one with the Hammond, IN skyline in the background.*
Posted by KingTalkyTiki
|
ooo
Posted by RVA
|
It's great but wish they had angled it differently to capture more of the skyline.*
Posted by Warrin'_Illini
|
I know this is a LONG shot, but anyone know of a Bears bar in Fort Lauderdale?
Posted by DiamondDazzle
|
bears are playing on sunday at 5:30p.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
Going to be frigid*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Sunday Mostly cloudy, with a high near 19. Sunday Night Mostly cloudy, with a low around 9. Brrr.*
Posted by Orangeillini
|
on NBC. Chris Collinsworth alert. :grimace: *
Posted by Orangeillini
|
The. Worst.*
Posted by Herman Blume
|
So Zach Tom on the Packers has a partial patellar tear and has to have surgery.
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
thinking about Caleb last year and now.
Posted by memyselfandillini
|
Has TJ Edwards played his last snap for the Bears? He was too slow before the injury.*
Posted by Warrin'_Illini
|
What was the extent of his ankle injury? Has there been a report out?
Posted by ibdoc
|
Fractured fibula*
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
Believe it or not, that's ideal in the circumstance as long as no ligament damage.
Posted by ibdoc
|
He costs money to cut this offseason, we are going to keep him on through next season.
Posted by gvibes
|
Do we want him to play? The backup has been better. Maybe they can do an injury settlement.*
Posted by Warrin'_Illini
|
Not really disagreeing, but backup isn't under contract for next season*
Posted by gvibes
|
IC. So many needs already piling up for the offseason, I'm sad about Ozzy.
Posted by Warrin'_Illini
|
I'd be good with a 2 yrr/8M contract for Jackson*
Posted by gvibes
|
I still get a little jolt in the pit of my stomach every time I watch the last play…
Posted by OB25
|
yea totally, catch it or bat it down..not sure what he was doing there.
Posted by ijustkrushalot
|
it's a small thing, but also a huge thing. CW taking that extra second in the game ball
Posted by John Coctostan
|
When he flipped the game ball to Ben Johnson after the shout out it got me in my feels
Posted by illini21
|
I went down a Matt Stafford rabbit hole. He's only played in 4 games with a sub-30 starting temp
Posted by VIV
|
On the flip side, Adams is used to it and Nacua seems built in a lab for cold weather games.
Posted by OB25
|
crazy. seems almost impossible to not have one @gb or @chi for all those years*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Also played his home games in a dome*
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes
|
probably goes back to how infrequently inter-division teams faced each other in the playoffs
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
that includes regular season as well*
Posted by reggiedunlop
|
Bears season of dreams magic continues: Stafford has a sprained index finger on
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Packers expected to keep Lafleur
Posted by biclops
|
If he cannot figure out the postseason thing, this will be good news for the rest of the NFC
Posted by MC
|
Damn*
Posted by OB25
|
Really hope Hafley gets a HC gig*
Posted by AintHatin
|
Get Hafley and Flores out of this division pls*
Posted by gvibes
|
I wonder how many teams want to hire a DC in the current climate
Posted by Sammich
|
most of the "hot candidates" this cycle are DCs, though.
Posted by VIV
|
Well there's one offensive mind rocketing up the carousel who's near and dear to all of us*
Posted by RVA
|
Kind of wonder by McVay's actual OC doesn't seem to get looks*
Posted by gvibes
|
I think people can talk themselves into Mike MacDonald as the model.
Posted by gvibes
|
that's what a fool believes*
Posted by VIV
|
I am 100% on the hire elite (or even just decent?) OC as HC train, I agree.
Posted by gvibes
|
Goddamit, I was hoping they would do something super dumb*
Posted by gvibes
|
Unless they can get Harbaugh it's probably the right call.*
Posted by Warrin'_Illini
|
As a Packer fan if they fired LaFleur for Harbaugh I'd be pissed*
Posted by opey8
|
Why no Harbaugh, too retread-y? Seems like a very good coach who maybe needs a new challenge.
Posted by Warrin'_Illini
|
ooo
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
That is something. McCarthy had prime Arod in a bad division. Best I got.*
Posted by Warrin'_Illini
|
meh, JH's got a 2x league MVP and a division that includes the Browns and Bengals
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
The comparison to McCarthy is a bit sobering but I just think he's a huge dumbass.
Posted by Warrin'_Illini
|
and believe it or not, Harbaugh is a year older!*
Posted by Sammich
|
To me, feels like the game has moved past the CEO-type coach, I don't know.
Posted by gvibes
|
He had a really good track record finding/hiring good coordinators
Posted by DT
|
watching the ending (again), that Packer injury at 30 seconds really could...
Posted by shua
|
It was a genuine injury, on the last play botched snap GB had a backup guard at center
Posted by RVA
|
I think they lost a couple of seconds. Spike wasn't going to take 10 seconds.*
Posted by Chicago1995
|
Disagree. The play on which he got hurt was a 20 yard completion.
Posted by GMAW
|
Yeah this is my thought too.*
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
They gotta change that rule. It wasn’t intentional, but a team can totally hack that.*
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
Hook and hold! Hook and hold!
Posted by memyselfandillini
|
If there's no run off, that's what a team will hack.
Posted by Chicago1995
|
It’ll be close + saves them a down. Need a larger time penalty at the least*
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
I felt like that killed them, they were on the front foot and would have gotten a few seconds back
Posted by ijustkrushalot
|
Longer run off. Probably can’t do a penalty or loss of down, but I’d be open to it.*
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
Rams have played 1 game all season with temp <50. week 13 loss at CAR
Posted by John Coctostan
|
The '88 NFC championship game destroyed my ability to pin my hopes on cold weather
Posted by Sammich
|
bingo. Wind chill of -26 and the 49ers carved up the bears in "Bear Weather" 28-3*
Posted by VIV
|
Jim mcmahon practically played that game from a wheelchair*
Posted by apusikam
|
Stafford also played in the NFC North for years
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes
|
Rams are 0-1 in sub 50 degree games this year
Posted by illini
|
Unlike GMAW's point below, that's not enough of a sample size to mean anything*
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes
|
I agree but saw it so threw it out there. *
Posted by illini
|
He did, but he's been largely terrible in those games*
Posted by GMAW
|
He was also on some really terrible Lions teams in that time frame*
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes
|
Stafford in cold weather games in his career:
Posted by GMAW
|
Ok, now I'm convinced
Posted by ISeeDeadHawkeyes
|
Agreed*
Posted by illini21
|
One of my kids pulled his hamstring jumping up and down celebrating the win. Raising em right*
Posted by gvibes
|
This Bear team will go down as the second most memorable team in my lifetime
Posted by TarheelIllini
|
Well the 2006 team went to the Super Bowl, and had a memorable identity, players, and moments*
Posted by RVA
|
I can't go there yet.. just still way too much unfamiliarity with a lot of the team for me
Posted by RSMBob
|
I have a busy work week ahead of me but all I’m gonna want to do is comb through the Penske file*
Posted by OB25
|
Indeed, what a weekend.*
Posted by Warrin'_Illini
|
Yesssss. Bears are Sunday. *
Posted by VIV
|
Weird that they wouldn’t just go ahead and put the Rams-Bears at night. Clearly
Posted by voiceofreason
|
Gonna guess CBS has first choice of timeslots this weekend? Maybe?
Posted by osklister
|
I don’t know that you automatically put the better game at night
Posted by QcIlliniFan
|
Are times set? *
Posted by MC
|
No. Not until after the Monday Night game*
Posted by AintHatin
|
Times announced after tomorrows game*
Posted by Mrap24
|
The pearl-clutching from Packers fans and media about Ben Johnson is just delightful*
Posted by OB25
|
I've not seen this...has anybody nationally really commented on it?*
Posted by JFG
|
I nearly posted this exact same thing earlier
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
Right, and the idea that McCaskeys will be pissed at Ben for saying it.
Posted by gvibes
|
Bears open as significant home dogs next week (+4.5)*
Posted by OB25
|
I feel like "the experts" regard the Rams as the best team in the NFC
Posted by Sounder
|
Current Super Bowl winner odds on FanDuel
Posted by Orangeillini Also: Bills +600
|
Rams have scored more than 30 points in 9 of their last 12 games *
Posted by meanjeans
|
That is an absurd line considering it will be cold and possibly snowing.*
Posted by voiceofreason
|
It’s very difficult to see a scenario where the Bears can even moderately contain their passing game
Posted by OB25
|
Maybe in the face of this high powered offense we say fuck it and air it out all over the place
Posted by meanjeans
|
biggs thinks it will be saturday.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
MRap said the same thing.*
Posted by Mrap24
|
Would be weird to see play Sunday considering 49ers played today. And Bears/Rams

BEAR WEATHER HELL YEAH*

|
Return to play rate after a patellar tendon tear is only like 55%? that not good*
Posted by gvibes
|
Mallory Swanson had a patellar tendon injury and it was a lengthy recovery.*
Posted by gullit
|
Panthers LT did the same thing yesterday and is listed as 6-12 mo*
Posted by assassin
|
Mallory Keaton did as well*
Posted by Phytynlini
|
Michael Keaton too *
Posted by MC
|
See also: Alex P. Keaton
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
But not Keaton Wagler*
Posted by NastyBoyd
|
However Buster Keaton's looked grim*
Posted by MtHoodIllini
|
Busta Rhymes; just as good as ever.
Posted by osklister
|
Would be brutal because that’s not a position they can afford to invest resources in this offseason*
Posted by OB25
|
Agreed. Really messes up the off-season plans if you have a hole at LT.*
Posted by Toonces
|
I mean he’s pretty definitely not playing next season at least*
Posted by Herman Blume
|
The first thing I heard said it’s a 6 month timetable, but I’m assuming that is incorrect*
Posted by OB25
|
Simmons was playing in 11 months. Who knows*
Posted by gvibes
|
I’m so happy right now but that would be terrible. Ozzy was a dude this year.*
Posted by Toonces
|
Though Marc Colombo's injury was different, if anyone was thinking back to that one.
Posted by gvibes
|
Bummer. He looked pretty promising. Hopefully Benedet is a dude*
Posted by illini21
|
Sorry, he’s a wide receiver now*
Posted by Herman Blume
|
I think the tweet I saw earlier said that if it’s a full tear it’s even lower*
Posted by Herman Blume
|
The main study on this topic does not support that conclusion though the sample
Posted by Orangeillini
|
Pfft you and your studies and facts and data*
Posted by Herman Blume
|
I’m still riding a high from that game!!!!*
Posted by TarheelIllini
|
Check out Benedet booking on this receiving route
Posted by gvibes
|
Truly would love to know the point of that*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
How was the atmosphere in person?*
Posted by gullit
|
Haven't been to a game in a long time, don't have much to compare it to.
Posted by gvibes
|
Those people can eat a dick*
Posted by illini21

Losers.*

Cleveland requests to interview Nate S*
Posted by Poldark "But Jesus Christ guys, not every loss is referendum on Brad Underwood"
|
I loved seeing Caleb pissed off and yelling on the sideline after the first pick
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
Noticed that too and thought the same*
Posted by TarheelIllini
|
Assuming Burden ran the wrong route, still puzzling why Caleb threw it straight to the defender
Posted by Orangeillini
|
Burden was supposed to run an in route to that spot is the presumption.*
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
Right. Seems like football knowers on twitter universally think that was a Burden fuck up*
Posted by gvibes
|
Richard Sherman mentioned it during halftime as well
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
Well if Burden was supposed to run a deep post, which is the assumption
Posted by IlliniSax05 MAJOR UPDATE: "Maybe you're not such a bad egg, Lisle-y"
|
That’s what Gonzalez or maybe Fitzgerald said on the postgame*
Posted by Herman Blume
|
It is kind of nice to be able correct assume that any confusion involving Burden is 100% Burden's
Posted by gvibes
|
I had to go back and watch the 4th. Random things
Posted by John Coctostan
|
That throw to Odunze needs slow mo and like a prayer immediately *
Posted by meanjeans
|
The guy covering Loveland on the 2 ptr played one snap all game. *
Posted by illini

That was his first defensive snap this season.*

Posted by osklister
|
Loveland had 15 targets *
Posted by illini
|
Would have lost but for Caleb’s absurd acrobatic 4th & 8 completion to Rome *
Posted by Orangeillini
|
one of the more ridiculous throws you’ll ever see. basically got a game ball for it.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
Given the situation, just unreal. *
Posted by PapaDels
|
I thought the game was today*
Posted by Stu
|
Would be so amazing if this already super fun result also causes them to stupidly fire LaFleur
Posted by OB25
|
Schefter put Harbaugh out into the ether on ESPN this morning*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
I'm stunned to hear that Lafleur's future is the topic on every sports radio show this morning on my
Posted by LovetheChief
|
Same here. Packer media really thinking he's gone.
Posted by osklister
|
he has one year left on his contract, seems to be regressing, and might lose his dc.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
Would be amazing. They won’t do it. Hope I’m wrong.*

Wait, Trapilo ruptured his patella and still hopped off so we didn’t have to burn a TO?
Posted by gvibes
|
Patella tendon injury sounds pretty bleak — only about 50% ever return to action?*
Posted by Herman Blume
|
Josh Simmons had one October 2024 and started

He kind of seems like our best limebacker*

Hey this was the first game against the packers this season where we played with a lead

More like 6:39

He doesn’t need to throw the fastball every time.

Starting the game giving up 2 straight 90 yd td drives has to change your mindset

correct. the problem is the offense is almost as bad.*

You can’t bring Allen back after this. Cannot.*
Posted by Chicago1995

There is no talent on this D. Our best guy is still dealing with an injury*

I get that, but the scheme and approach suck. Keep doing the same shit that doesn’t work.^
Posted by Chicago1995
|
I’m sure you’d do so much better*
Posted by bjl63
|
It would be hard to be worse.
Posted by Chicago1995 There are plenty of defensive coaches who could get something closer to mediocrity out of this D, banged up as it is.
|
If you were DC it would be a million times worse. Lock of all locks*
Posted by bjl63
|
Yeah but what if I was DC?*
Posted by Tortillini
|
Yes, because that’s what I’m saying
Posted by Chicago1995

Was just about to post this. Fire Dennis Allen!*

I wouldn't really call this unlucky

Meh x2. The implication that he saw a loose ball and didn’t react is crazy. Loose balls
Posted by John Coctostan

It's not that he didn't see it, but the cowering back that looked even worse live*

Again. The implication that he saw a loose ball and didn’t react is insane. Bad luck*

Can’t just give up 8 yards on every play*

Giving free points to the Packers seems like a poor decision there*
Posted by ilinni11

It’s absolutely the correct call. We can’t stop anybody. Two 90 yd drives. What does punting do*
Posted by John Coctostan
|
It’s an obvious punt situation. The position that “our d can’t stop anyone”
Posted by ilinni11
|
That implies there no chance we convert. Which isn’t true. And again this isn’t
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Ben knows the D stinks so he had to go for it*
Posted by bjl63
|
their 2 scoring drives have been 80+ yards?*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
Do you think if we punted it 40 yards farther down the field it would make a difference?*
Posted by Herman Blume
|
I would prefer to find out in that situation *
Posted by PapaDels
|
That’s playing to lose*
Posted by bjl63
|
Giving them free points isn’t playing to win. See Illini11 post above*

The free points are being given out regardless*

Sorry if I was unclear...I did not mean "the season is a failure."

Ah, yeah. But unless it's a Cignetti-esque chili whippin,' I hope people
Posted by longsnapper

Absolutely. Yeah, I would hope even the meat-headiest of meatheads could recognize the progress.

I don't think they're evenly matched, I think bears are clearly the better team

Oh stop this fake hedging bullshit. They've played twice, both came down to the last play
Posted by longsnapper

Not fake hedging bullshit. I think tonight Chicago is a better team going in to the game*

This*

that's so funny. because i think bears fans (and stat boys) feel the same about them

Game like this I'd rather have the better qb and I think that's Caleb*

All things being equal, sure. But not sure that's the case.

Ian Cunningham interviewed for the Falcons President of Football job.
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
Now it sounds like the Bears may not get any comp for Ian Cunningham if he goes to Atlanta.
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
Matt Ryan gets the gig. Sounds like everyone else interviewed is a GM candiate.
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
Russini posted yesterday that Ryan was consulting heavily with Poles

|
Just so I understand: this would be going from Bears' Ass't GM to Falcons' GM, correct?
Posted by osklister
|
Think the role he interviewed for is a step above GM.
Posted by Carl Spackler
|
Ah, okay; gotcha. Totally forgot about how Rooney now goes for GM, etc.

biggs thinks kyler is playing on saturday

Just don’t let him or Rome go through pregame warmups*

new Dolphins GM was a long time Packers scout and front office guy. Is that Mike McCarthy's music?*

|
oooo
Posted by John Coctostan
|
Or even better
Posted by gvibes
|
I'd love for the Dolphins to hire LaFleur. Then the packers can bring back Mccarthy*
Posted by VIV
|
kyler, ozzy, and rome all full today. only kyler is questionable of those 3. cj is out.*
Posted by Ari Gold
|
Mike McDaniel fired now too*
Posted by gvibes
|
Odd timing... but I would go after him as a Cards fan TBH...
Posted by uofi1998
|
Whatcha talking about over by heres? Nothing odd about a Black Thursday firing....
Posted by osklister
|
I'll take Nagy 100x out of 100 over McDaniel. He's a weirdo

The last time the Bears beat the Packers in the playoffs

was tonight. let’s go. *

That is accurate.

If you think about it, I guess you don't often meet a division rival in the playoffs
Posted by Sounder
|
That changed with the expanded playoffs:

|
crazy that braxton was a full participant today while kyler, ozzy, and rome were still limited.
Posted by Ari Gold
|
If you would have told me that the Bears would have this kind of a season
Posted by Sounder
|
Yes, but you’re one of the most provincial people here and overrate everything and everyone
Posted by GMAW
|
We'll be in Packer country. I can't decide if I want to go out and be amongst Packer fans
Posted by DiamondDazzle
|
As long as you're not an asshole, I think it would be fun
Posted by Sounder
|
Depends if they are angry drunks or not.*
Posted by DocWalk20
|
I think you can just say if they're angry or not. Pretty much always drunk*
Posted by ibdoc

That part is a given.*

The alcohol consumption figures from Wisconsin are incredible*

I have non-conventional thoughts on sports rivalries

I'll put this over here...Allen expects Kyler to play this week.
