This drive will be the difference in the game.

The pressure the Bears are getting on Rodgers is negated by poor gap integrity by the other guys. Either the middle or the opposite side is left wide open for Rodgers to make a play.

Man, this defense really sucks.. Can't get off the field. Going to probably need a turnover at some point to have a shot at winning.

Forte has GOT to catch that. Packers have been making all kinds of tough catches. Needed 7 there..

That was about as bad a special teams/defensive series as you can have. No resistance whatsoever. Looks like the last two years all over again.

The kick off coverage has been atrocious. Basically delivering free points to GB on this drive. Now the defense is giving up yards in chunks. Not a good start..

Really good half. Need to force a 3 and out to start the second half and continue to pound the football on the ground. Lets go!

The formula has worked so far. Keep running it down their throats and chew up clock.

Only way the Bears are winning this is if they run for 150 yards on the ground and win the turnover battle. Packers seem content putting 8-9 men in the box and forcing Cutler to beat them, as they should. This is where you miss your speed threat at WR.

Absolute lucky ass drive by the Packers there.

Solid first drive, but need to come up with 7 with Aaron Rodgers on the other side.

The better question is why the freak are there so many Bears players getting these weird illnesses that keep them out for months? First Jared Allen, then David Fales, and now Acho. What is going on?

I just now realized that Zac Diesert is no longer a Bear. Thought for sure he would be on the practice squad.

I like the fact that we will have money to spend, but part of me wants to see us refrain from using most of it to fill vacancies that should be filled by players that Ryan Pace drafts. Aka-- the Packer model.

I just hope he doesn't get fat again.

I really don't get why Bostic is still here. He looked completely lost when he was in there, which wasn't often enough because he's always freakin hurt!

Not the least bit surprising, although I would caution the Bears. Young could still play DE when the Bears go with a 4-3 look. Fangio is a multiple front guy. I imagine his plans for Jared Allen would be similar, as we saw against the Colts. Allen's sack came when he had a hand on the ground. I'd keep Willie Young around unless you can get an unexpected higher draft pick or more valuable player for him.

Serious question, did Zach Miller even see the field at all this pre-season? I can't recall. He made a bunch of plays last year before injuring himself.

He looked good yesterday playing with/against bums. Don't think you can read much into that, but I do know that he looks exceptionally fast to be playing LB'er.

I will be really pissed if Carey doesn't make the cut. He runs like a bat out of hell. I love it. Also, hard to imagine Timu and Terry Williams not making this roster. Just made too many plays to leave off the roster. Jonathon Anderson might even make it. Jon Bostic is about to get cut. What a waste of a 2nd round pick.

My confidence meter with this new regime is getting lower by the day.

A 6th round pick in 2017 for an undrafted FA rookie. What are we doing??

That has the Bears written all over it. They need more big fat guys in the trenches, especially with Ratliff out for a while. Don't think you can just rely on Eddie Goldman.

He is still an elite talent. It's reasonable to think that another team could get more out of him than Jay Gruden did as a starter; which really shouldn't be that difficult to do, considering Jay Gruden did everything in his power to ruin him from Day 1. I could be completely wrong about him, but I wouldn't close the book on him as a potential starter for another team just yet. He's still in his twenties. I think Buffalo would be a great spot for him to land.

I'm willing to admit he might be damaged goods at this point. Maybe he's already been hit too many times, and injuries have taken their toll, but I still don't think it would be that detrimental to sign him off the street for cheap when he eventually gets cut. There's very little downside. If it doesn't work out, he gets cut again. I actually think Adam Gase's offense is a good fit with his skill set. I think his biggest issue is trying to get away from what made him special in the first place, which was the read option. Perhaps he would reconsider when he finds himself looking for a job as a free agent. It could be his last chance to stick on an NFL roster, sadly.
