Osweiler is going to start against the Bears today. Good luck with that.

Let's assume the D will be good again today...It'll come down to if Mitch can build on his great game against the Bucs...or takes a step back. If the latter, well, it's the NFL...anything can happen.

Super sloppy game by Bears. Their inability to get to the QB so far today is going to be their downfall...letting the Fish score 28? Yikes.

Did anyone see Tom "The Clydesdale" Brady run for that TD? Majestic stuff

Hard fought game.

Likely a rematch in the playoffs.

Dang it Yum, your team D only gave me -1. Nice loss to the backup QB and the 100 year old Frank Gore.

I might actually get my first win! I wrote it off yesterday because he has Rodgers and a 5 pt lead and I had Hill and Butker...right up until that shootout and Hill gets me 34 and Butker 18. So Rodgers just needs to stay under 47. Which isn't a guarantee by any stretch. Go SF D!

Yeah my girl had the Bears Defense Gurley had another great showing for me. Mahomes got me 27.

You are the prime example as to why people hate the Pats. And why I rarely come in this thread.

And yet here you are....

Honestly though, if me joking about Brady running like a majestic horse upsets you than you're softer than Charmin

I was there (free ticket). I knew when we left 1:30 to work with and 1 point lead after the Mixon TD that we were done.

No pressure on Ben whatsoever = 0 sacks. Jekyll and Hyde defense. Offense wasn't committed to the run.

I don't like our odds on the road vs the Chefs

You figured it was a trap game for the Bears. The Fish did a nice job blocking Mack all game though -- he usually is alot more noticeable.


Sloppy all-round for Chicago. And when the Fish coughed it up on the goal line in OT and only for the Bears to miss on the FG after getting it down the field...you knew it was over.

Yes it seems they gameplayed Mack well. Let's see if Nagy counteracts that.

When Rodgers got his last TD I wasn't surprised. The goat. Not surprised at the outcome either.

I'm not even mad or that disappointed. Team played well, turnovers killed them once again.

Holding call on Sherman was kinda weak, but whatever.

Even though we won, McCarthy needs to go! With Rodgers the game is never over till the clock hits triple zero's. I'd hate to be other teams with a small lead late in the game. Still think we wont make it far this year but we will see.

MNF commentator crew is awful with Booger and Witten. I cringed when he said CJ Bletherd and Greg Mabbin. I'd be annoyed if I were at a game and the Boogmobile got in my way.

Romo and Nantz would've been a huge improvement. Collinsworth is occasionally a salty sackrider but still way better than Witten.

Witten even called Rodgers by the wrong first name at one point . WTF!!

Romo and Nantz for sure would of been a notch up...

This is just like Big Papi and A-Rod reporting on the NLCS with the Brewers. Neither of them know the names of the players.

btw, that ruling of the interception by the Packers at the end wasn't a catch IMO

* Edit - I think that should be called a catch every time

Could be wrong here but I believe under the catch rule, if a player has his hand under the ball with control, the ball can move and still be a catch

Admittedly when I had the game on, I was like man these announcers suck. I think the main announcer does boxing for ESPN.

I kinda felt bad for that SF CB that they were picking on hard at the end...not Sherman and didn't catch his name. Looked like he had nothing left.

I also laughed at Witten's rabbit out of his head comment when I heard it

I went 0-2 in fantasy this week, so my undefeated rein of terror is over, but still in 1st place.

I needed 3.86 points from George Kittle last night to win, and he got 3.00 Needless to say I was hoping for OT.

This is also the same league that Jax DEF got -1 points this week
