Why God..WHY DID YOU NOT LET THEM SCORE?

1 minute with a timeout and the best QB in the league to run a drive..Or 8 seconds and hope one of the most accurate kickers of all time can't hit an EXTRA POINT.

I'm just completely and utterly dumbfounded.

I agree. Horrible clock management.

Mike McCarthy was a total pussy. He was afraid of being ridiculed by outraged fans and media hacks for letting the Bears score. He'd rather look noble saying he trusted our defense than using a strategy better calculated to put the ball in the hands of our playmakers.

Ted Thompson should fine McCarthy half a game check or more. He didn't earn it this week.

Maybe you missed the first half of last season. And every season for the last half decade.

The Packers SUCKED this game away.
18 penalties???
Giving up a TD before the half.....ST's letting us down AGAIN. Blocked field goal.........DUMB mistakes. HANDED the game to Chicago.

What really burns me up is ignoramuses will say that Chicago dominated the Packers, when precisely the opposite is true.

Yeah, let's blame McCarthy.

It's not like there were any games this week where FG kickers missed chip shots in the last few seconds...

Oh wait, there were. Justin Hartley, please stand up.

You have a QB that is cramping. You have your best playmaker in Finley cramping. You have your Tackles getting abused by one Julius Peppers.

And you expect Aaron to give you a reasonable shot at a TD? I just don't see how letting the Bears score would have given the Packers any more chance to win than what they already had (next to zero).

So you're telling me you're going to put the WHOLE game on a veteran (not Hartley..btw) kicker....Missing an EXTRA POINT..Instead of giving Aaron Rodgers a minute?...Are you insane?..Like..Jesus Freaking Christ.

beast (8-Aug) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder
