I get it and I can't say it's an awful decision but 45 seconds and a timeout is definitely an opportunity. 

Yeah, but not from there with the backup QB. Need some halftime adjustments to take advantage of what Willis brings. First drive in 2nd half for Bears will be big, stop them and this game becomes a rock fight.

Yeah.  If you fail to get it, it's good field position, but you couldnt expect Willis to get us into much closer field position than a long fg attempt in this huge wind.  Feels like well worth the risk.

It would probably mean 3 points for Packers if you don't convert and the Bears get the ball right back anyway, I can see both sides of that one.

Chicago, "world class" organization in a "world class " city that cant even keep heaters working on the Packer sideline. 

 

Everything about it screams absolute clown show, and they never disappoint proving it in so many ways

If the wind there is like the wind the last couple of days here the passing game is going to be tough sledding for everyone.  I would not expect a high scoring game.

The way the Bears ran the ball on the first drive I was very concerned. But we’ve given up 0 points, hard to complain.

Funny that John Kuhn said pregame radio that weather would not be a factor. Maybe not windy 2 hours before kickoff but how hard is it to check the forecast?

[adambr2]

I fear the Bears will drive right down and lead 7-6 in a few minutes. Sure hope I am wrong.

From your own 8 with a backup QB? Nah I’m good and I lean aggressive.

Too much can go wrong and too little of a chance for things to go right. You probably need 60 yards just for a shot at a FG.

He's playing the rest of the game. He's no longer the back up. He's going to have to throw the ball eventually.  Good point about the wind though, that's probably correct.

Me too, but this has been a weird game. Probably come down to FG at the buzzer.  

[young guns]

Maybe it's tin foil hat of me, but 2 separate heating elements down on the Packers side feels fishy.  1 or the other and yeah stuff happens.  But multiple on the same side?

I'm sure Ben Johnson out adjusted MLF at halftime.

Catch the damn ball, Xavier

[HarveysWBs]

Another dropped pick. X has been really disappointing down the stretch.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Not catching INTs is really hurting us. It's a good play, but we gotta get one of those eventually. 

[young guns]

Is that the first positive thing Hobbs has done as a packer?

I agree there you’re going to need him to throw the ball eventually. You don’t have to force it there though with 45 seconds deep in your own territory. I could see running the ball once and seeing if you can spring one off for 20 yards. That’s not without risk, though.

[HarryDoyle]

Just once can a DB hang on to an interception?

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Honestly anything better than immediately giving up a touchdown, I'll take it. 

[Fear The Chorizo]

Thats a ridiculously good fg - uprights we're rocking in that wind

Yeah, kicked it just right. Shoot..

[Brian]

Malik with a rifle throw completed. 

[HarryDoyle]

Is there a play where Musgrave has managed to stay on his feet?

[young guns]

Wow what a pump fake.

[HarveysWBs]

This game is going to end with Jacobs at WR and Savion Williams at QB. Good grief

He has zero lateral balance

 

And now 2 of their best wr's get hurt on a qb scramble...did they run into each other or something?
