I'm rewatching the Packers blowout loss to the falcons this morning. Because thats what you do when you toddler wakes you up at 5 AM on a Sunday.

All I can contribute to this conversation is how great it makes me feel to watch Rodgers get hit so many times and so hard. ALL WITH NO FLAGS!!! It pisses me off to no end how many times the Packers get away with gifts, be it holding calls, intentional grounding, pass interference not called ect...

Such a rough season being one of two Bears fans at a company of 100+ Packer fans when your team goes 3-13. The smugness they have when they beat the giants at home...which we all we're expecting. But the last minute win against the Cowboys was a bitter pill to swallow the next day at work.

You can imagine how old it gets when a dozen people sneeringly ask you if you watched the packers advance to the NFC division game...

So to watch #12 get LIT UP, hit after hit, throw multiple interceptions, and ugly play after ugly play it feels pretty great.

Great to see him get hit, but pissed that he continued to get up and play. A Bears QB would have been in ICU after some of those hits - Bears QB luck.

I really believe it all goes in cycles. The Packers will come back to the us and we will rise up again. Us older fans had the privilege to see the Bears of the 80's and very early 90's destroy the Packers. They never had shit for QB's. (I did like Don Majkowski) It will be our turn again.

The only consistant thing is that the Minnesota Biqueens will always find a way to screw their season up in the end.

Detroit is well Detroit.

The Pats continue to draft QBs even though they have TB
The Pack continue to draft QBs even though they have AR
No excuse for the Bears to stop swinging.

The Pats & Pack also have OLs that give their QBs even time to knit a sweater behind.
The Bears OLs have been horrid.

Fix that shit. You'll hate AR less if we beat his ass twice a year.
Just my 2 cents

Until he retires I will hate him. After that I will have a chance of heart. I hope to be able to like him soon.

I hope this becomes a yearly tradition. Another year, another season without so much as a SB appearance with what's supposed to be the greatest (or 2nd greatest) QB in NFL history. I'll call it the curse of the Favre.

And it's done....

Packers eliminated from playoff contention

Posted: Dec 18, 2017 10:03 PM


GREEN BAY, WI (WBAY)- For the first time since 2008, the Packers will begin their offseason at the conclusion of the regular season. The Atlanta Falcons eliminated the Packers from playoff contention Monday night with their 24-21 road win over Tampa Bay.

The Packers will finish the regular season with meaningless games against Minnesota this Saturday night at Lambeau Field, and on New Year’s Eve at Detroit. The Vikings are NFC North champs this year and still in the hunt for the number one seed in the NFC. The Lions are still alive in the Wild Card race.

This will be just the third time in Mike McCarthy’s 11 seasons as head coach that his team will not participate in the playoffs. “But the end of the day, these guys compete. It’s a privilege to coach them. They give you everything they’ve got,” the coach said on Monday.

The last time the Packers missed the playoffs, the 2008 season, McCarthy made major changes on his coaching staff. He replaced 5 defensive coaches, including his defensive coordinator Bob Sanders. Dom Capers took over in 2009, but there is plenty of speculation about his job security, which will only intensify now that the Packers are out of the playoffs.

The only joy I have gotten from football during the Bears' recent run of ineptitude has been schadenfreude when the Packers lose in the playoffs.

Watching Rodgers THREE int's on Sunday, knowing they were going to end up missing the playoffs, made my Sunday.

Taking joy in the pain and suffering of others....is that bad?

It is not bad, but it is getting old for me. For a long time now, I get more enjoyment out of the Pack losing than the Bears winning. Why? Because I knew the Bears weren't going anywhere.

In the end, The Pack own the Bears anyway, so if the Bears can't beat them, it was always nice when someone else did. I want the Bears to be able to beat them though.

My original post was 2 years ago. Chances are getting better Rodgers will retire without even matching Favre's two super bowl appearances. Green Bay has fired their head coach and meanwhile, the Bears just won the division. :D

That franchise is fucked for a while. The "shareholders" are gonna need to figure out their shit. Have fun paying Rodgers all that money while he's perpetually injured with declining skills on a team going nowhere.

There was nothing better than his bitch ass limping towards the sideline with his jersey all hanging off his pads.

That sort of felt like a passing of the torch, didn't it? It was beautiful.

Yes..it is a passing of the torched..
Puke got the burning embers shoved up deep..
5 sacks on old man Rodgers..36 next year..
Erin says he wants to play until 41 or so.. Days like today may change his mind..

With his salary absorbing all the light in GB..the talent around him is weak..

39 sacks this year..and some very good..hard hits like today..
His future passing the Vicodin from Farve..?

He has to play for the next five years against Hicks, Goldman, Mack and Floyd. Not sure he really wants to do that.

Now just change the jersey number from 94 to 73 and see if anybody gets the reference. Outstanding.
