Bears

Remember the Packers haven’t faced our improved Offensive Line. We beat them last year with a crap OL. We should be able to run the ball. I like our chances in this game.

I don’t care about last year though, it means nothing in regards to this game.

But yes, if the Bears can run the ball it sets up play action and helps lesson Parsons/pash rush. If they can run it, I feel very good about the game. But GB knows this and will obviously try to take the run away. Johnson’s O philosophy centers around running the ball.

Sure
What was Jordan Love doing his second year? Bears need to hit/pressure him and he will throw picks. He is afraid of being hit. Another thing is he seems to be hurt all the time.

He became a starter in his 3rd year and in his first start he played the Bears and threw for 3 TDs. In his first years as a starter he threw for over 4100 yards and 32 TDs with a 65% completion percentage.

He's been sacked 17 times and only has 3 picks and a 67% completion percentage so not sure your breakdown is accurate.

He's only missed 2 games since becoming a full time starter.

I love parts of Caleb's development so far, but to say He's better than Love is just wrong. I hope the Bears can figure out a pass rush so they don't have to continue to depend on interceptions. A win would be massive because it would give them a 1.5 game lead over the Packers in the division with only 4 games left to play.

What is Loves come back stats. What does he do under pressure? His stats are a little better but stats are not everything. He’s not clutch.

Sadly he's rarely needed to comeback.

Parsons is a beast, but they've already faced Crosby and Hutchinson and they didn't go crazy in either of those games. Gotta get ready for the biggest animal of them all next week, Garrett.

His stats are more than a little better. I do agree stats are not 100% end all be all. I’ll let you dig up the stats that show he’s not clutch since that’s your claim.
You can’t wish him into being bad on a message board. He’s good, that doesn’t mean he’s going to dominate the Bears like GB QBs of the past two decades but reality is that Jordan Love is good. And I don’t like that he’s good either, trust me.

Crosby was wrecking the game in first half but since the Bears have actual good coaches they figured out how to neutralize him in 2nd half….or he ran out of gas lol. But this is where my confidence is much stronger, bears coaches won’t just run plays they can’t block etc like years past.

In 3 years as a starter Love has nine 4th quarter comebacks/game winning dives with an average QB rating of around 105. Corey I like you, buy take the rose colored Bears glasses off for a second. I despise Love and the Packers as much as the next Bears fan but to say he isn't a good QB is just false.

Not saying you did. Something about Love that is very ordinary. Will see if the Bears get pressure on Love we will win.

That’s the main rap on Love. He does not perform well off script. If the Bears can pressure him, he is nowhere near as effective as some QBs are under pressure. The problem with that is the Bears do not have a consistent pass rush. We shall see. This is definitely the biggest Bears/Packer game in years. At least the Bears are finally relevant.
