Game 16: Packers @ Vikings - Sunday, Dec. 31st 7:20 PM

[yourout]

That was one time not setting your feet cost you.

[adambr2]

All I know is when we call a timeout on 4th down, the following play never converts.

[adambr2]

Can't go 4 and out after a 1st and 5.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Thought that trying another mob QB sneak attempt could have picked up the first down. Still had a great play called on 4th down, but couldn’t execute it. 

[yourout]

Man that was a chance to almost put this thing away.

[CheezWizHed]

I'm torn.  I want to play it safer and get and easy 1st down, but man he was wide open...

Pretty sure Joe Barry just read the "put this thing away" and rolled his eyes.

This defense is more than capable of giving up 17 points in 7-8 minutes, let alone 3+ quarters.

[HarryDoyle]

Helmet to helmet to helmet.

It was an easy first down, Love simply has to throw a half decent pass. It isn’t a high bar to achieve in that situation.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

Let the game get back to one score. Big drive coming up if the offense can get points.

It wasn't the best throw in the world but it was more than catchable.

Was catchable, but would have required quite a catch on the other end. Idk…much like a pass earlier in the game, when your guy is that stupid wide open just lob it and let him go get it. That throw was what you would expect if the defender was right on him.

Playing QB is hard enough, no need to make it more complicated.

I'm definitely not going to say it was his best throw tonight. But it hit Melton right in the hands. Dove for it. But I feel like most receivers are going to feel like they should have come up with that. 

[young guns]

Looks like a td to me.

[HarryDoyle]

Touchdown! Love the play call. Should see more quarterback keepers.

[ReverendBrewmeister]

What an effort for a touchdown! Big, big drive for the offense!

[Oxy]

Love is 1.5 games away from a big paycheck

[HarryDoyle]

The only drive we've been stopped was because we stopped ourselves.

[HarryDoyle]

Come on, Kenny. That's two on you already.

[adambr2]

If Kenny Clark could stop committing defensive penalties that'd be great. 

[young guns]

That was quite a hole for quay to run up into and a good juke to beat the rb.

[HarveysWBs]

I don’t know the rule, but I know offensive linemen do that on every play…

[CheezWizHed]

Chicago Bear's embarrassment watch:

Jordan Love is 118 yards and 1 TD away from matching the Chicago Bears' all-time QB single-season leader (Erik Kramer - remember that "legend"?)  .

I was just thinking the other day, with the pathetic state of NFL QBs these days…I think he is arguably already a Top 10 dude.
