By the numbers, the 1998 Colts are the only 13-3 team worse than this year's Packers. They've done well in a year where the conference is down. If they put it together again next year, I'll be sold. As of now, I have no reason to believe they won't slip next year like the Bears did this year...
Thousands move to every year? Cool. The state of Illinois has over twice as many people as the state of Wisconsin so that doesn't really mean anything.
At least Wisconsin is starting to fix some of the problems that the albatross Scott Walker inflicted on your state. Glad to see the people up...
Adams was there when they barely beat this Bears team week one and the Vikings not long after that. Minnesota is the better team. Rodgers will get hurt at some point. Wisconsin is the armpit of America. Repeat, repeat.
The Packers are at absolute best a 5-3 team that has had some crazy luck go their way (No Mahomes, the Detroit game). They really aren't that good and won't go anywhere in the postseason.....but yes, seeing them atop the standings for now blows hard. I am now rooting for Minnesota.
The Bears have obviously had worse seasons, but I don't recall a season going in with such high hopes turning out so poorly. Added in with the fact that a Green Bay Packers team that really isn't that good (#11 offense, #26 defense) is sitting at 7-1 due to some crazy breaks going their way...
lol the Trestman era and the Pats dropping 50 on the Bears when we were a team with zero expectations that sucked balls is hardly as humiliating as supposedly being a Super Bowl contender, coming off one of the most gut wrenching playoff losses I can remember, opening at home the 100th...
The Gabriel play wasn't remotely close to offensive PI. Not remotely close. His hands grazed the guy, he didn't push or change his movement/positioning one bit. It was an awful call, no buts about it.
