NFC NORTH Week 17 Champ Game Inside.

[bleedingpurple]

Lions vs. Vikes.. Who cares really?

Packers vs. Chicago

This was the worst case scenario for me, to have the two teams I dislike the most playing for the division. I guess there is some satisfaction knowing both teams do not have a chance to go far in playoff.

To me the only way to go is with the Bears +3.. They are at home and they have more playmakers than Green Bay. Did you watch the first game? They had no answers for the big tall receivers of the Bears, the Packers defense is down right lousy. Not to say that the Bear's defense is a juggernaught. Packer's get Rodgers back and it also looks like Cobb will be playing too. How sharp either will be is up for grabs. Lacey for Green Bay will need a big game for the Pack to win.

Bears 38 - 27

Home team getting points
Better offensive Weapons
Rusty playmakers for Green Bay
Packer's defense horrid, no Claymaker

Packers advantages are Lacy and hoping Cutler Implodes

 

[PocketAces]

Totally agree. I just put a HUGE bet on Chicago +3.5.

 

[heleanth]

I'm betting the Bears, hopefully at 3 1/2. If the Packers win big, I don't mind losing my money. If they lose, well, at least I win some money. If the Pack wins by 3 or less, I hit the middle. Plus, I can sit back and relax, since I don't have to worry about Minnesota making the post-season.

Gb could be -35 and you would still pick the Bears......No idea who wins but how can u say Chitcago has more playmakers?? I assume u mean WR and IF Cutler plays like Cutler i don't care who is on the receiving end cus they can't make play if he is nowhere near he receiver.

Marshall
Jefferies
Bennett
Forte

Green Bay doesn't come close to that type of fire power. I would take Green Bay more often but I can't back that defense, backing Chicago's defense isn't a highlight of the day either. I hear what you say about Cutler but I have a feeling he is going to be comfortable most of the day.

If the Packers were close to 100% I would take them easily.

thanks....i'll start scouring the draft boards to see who's there in the first round 15-19 pick range since we now have no chance to win.

On a side note, my buddy who is one of the most knowledgeable Packer fans has finally agreed with me.. Ted Thompson is killing the team. I know most of the cheddar heads are going to point to 2010, but lets look at this a little bit further.. Thompson got lucky found lighting in a bottle and rode a hot team, hot arm, and hot running back against a watered down league that season. Not to take anything away from the team but that was really lucky and Thompson got a majority of the accolades.

2011 the team goes 15 -1 with a crappy, crappy defense, then last year they win the division but their crappy defense gets em blown out in San Fran, fast forward to this season and yep the same old crappy defense. Everyone wants to blame Capers and I will a little. The 3-4 defense is KILLING RAJI. KILLING HIM, but this team does NOTHING to address defensive concern via free agency for 3 years. Building via draft works if you have good drafts but look at the last 3 drafts Ted Thompson has had. He has been FUCKING TERRIBLE!! It's time Packer fans realize that this dipshit was the luckiest GM in history of the league and is burying your team. Yeah the Packers can win the division every year but they will NEVER go back and win the Super Bowl unless they obtain some proven players. I don't care keep Thompson, we can watch him draft a defensive player first round and watch him stumble from there on out. The man had one good draft and has been riding the cottails of the best QB in football in a division filled with mediocre to crappy football teams. It's time for Thompson to go.

Come on man..Lucky to win the SB in a watered down league?? are u freaking serious..WE all u hate GB very much but when you start saying it was all luck with winning 3 straight road games against good teams then you're just wrong......I have no prob with Thompson at all...Do u have any idea how many injuries GB has had......That lacy pick by Thompson was awesome.... I know you're frustrated with the purple but GB has a solid team year in and year out and a SB just 3 years ago......I can name 25 teams at least that would love to be in GB's spot winning divisions and making playoffs and winning a title.

I've never been so happy to lose a bet.

The last three weeks I've won more money than the rest of the season combined! (Which isn't saying much)

Who'll be at Historic Lambeau Field next weekend?

Philadelphia, Atlanta and Chicago of that season are mediocre compared to most playoff teams, what the Packers did was great and what they had to do. The Packers good team year in and year out have to do with their Quarterback and nobody else. That team is God Awful without him. Injuries is the same shit every year for that team, the need to sign a proven defensive player from time to time. Injuries or not their draft picks have sucked past 3 years. Lacey is a very good player but anybody drafting for Green Bay would of drafted Lacey in that spot, it wasn't a genius move. Hell Spielman made the genius move by trading up to get the best offensive player in the draft, Cirderelle Patterson and I hope he gets shit canned too.
