Not really.  It’s quite specific and factually correct.  Rodgers had this exact win and you’re in vs a divisional rival in the final week playing at home scenario and played terrible.

It seems incredibly precise to me:

"Stop a division rival from playing spoiler with playoffs on the line Week 18 at Lambeau Field?"

This is only the 2nd year of 18 week seasons, it's very obvious he's referring to last year's week 18 game where Rodgers and co. came up short to a division rival with the playoffs on the line at Lambeau Field.

Looks like we'll end up with Watson, Musgrave, Wicks back. Reed in despite going out Sunday. 

Dillon, Jenkins, Ford out.

Preston questionable. 

Full compliment of pass catchers has me worried, almost feel like this is a universal let down when we get the big guns back under LaFleur and then we figure it out a week later, well there is no week later next time. LaFleur is undeniably better shorthanded vs full strength when it comes to the gameplan, let's hope he works up a gem for this one.

Big opportunities for LVN and Rhyan, they should get starters reps this week.

Counter point to that, how do the Bears cover everybody? It's not like they can gameplan to try and take one guy out. Like we can with Moore. There are literally six other guys who can to a lot of damage. 

I'm giving MLF the benefit of the doubt. Plus, Love is playing at a very high level.

Far more worrisome if Jenkins can't go. The one constant during this stretch run of wins has been continuity on the OL. Not having Jenkins against an improved Bears DL is literally probably one of the only things that could set this offense back right now. 

Hopefully Jenkins can tape it up and play through it. Probably depends on whether it's a low v. high ankle.

If Preston Smith is out, looks like we’ll have to put Jaire on Moore instead. 

Passer rating against when targeted this season. 

Jaire Alexander 120.6.

Preston Smith 42.7.

Then it will be Preston's turn to interview with the oversized sunglasses and belts on.

I'm with him all the way on this one. As much as I like to bag on JRJ, he's a hell of an upgrade to Newman. 

Rhyan was a LT at UCLA so the movements may not be as foreign to him if he slides left.

Chicago is in a pretty great spot for the future whether they stick with fields or not. 

At the very least they have revamped Fields' value to "startable QB on a good team" if they want to go with a rookie they should have a market for Fields to recoup some value. 

If they want to keep him as the starter and trade down they will get a kings ransom for the 1st overall pick, plus they have a TON of cap space to burn (60+M) or save for the future.

Hopefully they screw it up. Have some historic draft capital to work with lately
