    It's amazing to me that the NFL put forth a "business as usual" schedule in a non business as usual season. There should have been at least two bye weeks per team, with at least one late season full league bye week to make up postponed games. They had all offseason to build some flexibility into the schedule and chose to do everything on the fly instead. Stupid. Now they're out of flexibility with no bye weeks remaining for any teams and they're caught with their pants down trying desperately to salvage every game on the schedule which is likely to get near impossible with winter surges likely to make this thing worse before it gets better.

    Knebel isn't getting tendered. 5M or so is just too absurdly high for where the reliever market sits given where he's at right now. The arbitration system has priced him over his FA value. I would have just claimed Brad Hand for a few extra million rather than pay Knebel again just as a flyer. Strictly my opinion, of course. Of course just when I think I have a good gauge on the markets then the Braves throw 11M at Drew Smyly and I have to re-question everything.

    Aren't they the ones mostly responsible for the whole mess?

    He's returned to the Packers' practice facility almost a week ago. Which I'm sure would not be allowed if he were in any way still contagious or having any major complications. https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/football/news/packers-aj-dillon-remains-in-covid-19-protocol/

    Does anyone know why AJ Dillon is STILL out on COVID protocol when Ingram and Dobbins literally aren't going to miss a single game?
  6. adambr2
    I really would like to see the Saints drop 2 because if we could get the one seed at 12-4 that would be much more doable. 13-3 isn't impossible, but the Titans look tough. Henry is going to run wild on us.
  7. adambr2
    Well, that's better than what comes to mind (ACL) every time I hear "out with a knee injury."
  8. adambr2
    I think we will need to run the table to get a 1st round bye. Got to hope the Saints lose one, but I do think they'll drop one of their upcoming games if they stop getting byes against teams thay have no QB.

    Offensive line has done a tremendous job this season. Didn't hear what the extent of the Linsley injury was, but they didn't seem to miss a beat when Jenkins had to slide over to C.

    NFL seems intent on the game being played no matter how many guys are out with COVID. Now they that have no more bye weeks to fall back on they're pretty much avoiding cancelling games at all costs.

    There, fixed. The Bears are not a terrible team. They have several very good skill position guys on offense, and a ton of talent on defense. They aren't a pushover. It bothers me that so many in this fanbase seem to think that the Packers should be blowing out everyone 45-3 every week. This is the NFL. That's just not how things typically work. This game was a drubbing. It was over a full hour before the final whistle. Some garbage time offense and a couple random long plays from the Bears on offense in the first half didn't change that. The Packers outclassed a decent Bears team last night, and it wasn't even close. The Bears are a pretty bad team. They're nowhere close to being a decent team. They're terrible. Blowing out teams isn't the point and the garbage time points isn't really it either. The run defense wasn't good before garbage time. The Packers are a good team. I am simply saying the issues they had when they got drubbed last January still exist and are likely to rear their ugly heads in January again. That's all. But I do think that the NFC lacks a team the quality of last year's 49ers team, so we do have a chance.

    Very nice win, but the elephant in the room that we cannot stop the run to save our lives remained and still remains. I hope Rodgers can win shootouts every week in January, because that's what it will take for this team to play in the Super Bowl.
  13. adambr2
    So we are allowing some fans in?
  14. adambr2
    Even in a nice win, the defense manages to put a damper on it.
  15. adambr2
    How long has AJ Dillon had COVID-19 for, a month?
  16. adambr2
    Tim Boyle should see some work today.
  17. adambr2
    Feels like St. Brown is actually involved in this offense.
  18. adambr2
    I was definitely expecting a flag, but I've been pretty conditioned to expect one on any play that looks like that.
  19. adambr2
    It's also weird considering you have no control of the result of a coin flip. Yeah I mean....we've lost 8 tosses in a row. Ok? What should we do about it? Call tails every time? Consult a magic 8 ball before the game? It is what it is, just a statistical oddity that 10 years from now will probably be statistically close over that span with every other team.
  20. adambr2
    If you guaranteed me a TD on our opening drive if we receive I would be willing to receive the opening kickoff every game for the rest of my life and I'm sure the Packers would do the same. It's a weird game to bemoan the coin toss costing us when we score 6 on the opening drive and the Bears got nothing on theirs.
  21. adambr2
    Thank you! It was highly significant against Minnesota when there were only 4 possessions in the first half and the Vikings scored the last TD of the first half and then received th ball in the second half. Deferring is probably very slightly better. I don't disagree. It gives you a chance on offense first after second half adjustments. Some would argue that receiving is better because the first team to score a TD wins about 66% of the time. Harping on it is pointless though, a coin toss is something that will even out over a long enough sample size, one time will receive in each half and one will kick in each half in every game and how they make that happen is extremely inconsequential.
  22. adambr2
    Yes, the impact is so minimal that you are a bit nuts. So many variables to the end of the half that it doesn't nearly play out to the point of mattering. Packers scored on their first drive of the half and the Bears punted. I'm not sure how that is like a turnover. The Bears basically had back-to-back possessions (with only one Packer snap in between). So if the Packers have the ball to end the game is that like a turnover too? Somebody is going to start the half with the ball. Somebody is going to end the half with the ball. We also could have taken a shot, gained 30 yards and kicked a FG and your point would be moot. It's just a crazy stretch to call it a turnover.
  23. adambr2
    They used to do the exact opposite 10-15 years ago. There's been a lot of shift in that. Could be nothing more than herd mentality.
  24. adambr2
    How was it like a turnover? Again, both teams have the same amount of opportunity throughout the course of an entire game. The odds of losing 8 coin tosses in a row are 1 in 256. Not good, but not a completely unheard of anomaly. And that's ignoring the OT coin toss last week, because we won that one. These holding penalties are way, way more of turnovers than losing the opening coin toss is.
  25. adambr2
    Nah, It was the right call. No reason to give Bears more chance of momentum via a sack-TO. I'd say I would have had Jones in the game. It was pretty obvious with Williams a run being called. I'd have run with Jones and if he broke one for 14 or more yards you call TO and take a shot. They started before the 30yd line How does a sack change the momentum? It's literally the exact same score going into half. And they did not start before the 30 yard line. The line of scrimmage was the 35.
