And Ossweiler put up 31 against the Bears. To be fair, Trubisky was playing his first game in a new offense with a new head coach and team mates. Their defense was gassed in the second half too.

cannondale Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 (edited) I could go on about losing to the Lions (3-6) and having our azzes handed to us by S.F. (2-8) at home even though we pulled it out, but I won't. We should be talking about wins against playoff caliber teams, and how we match up, but we can't, because we don't have any. My point is, the bar has been lowered quite far if we are boasting about and dissecting wins against crap teams and how that measures up against division foes, but that's just me. Our only wins have come against teams led by Trubisky, Osweiler, Allen, and Beathard. Whoopee. By all means, carry on Edited November 13, 2018 by cannondale 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our lone signature win was a tie against a division rival at home who is 5-3-1. I'm having flashbacks to 1977. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish we got our azzes handed to us every week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Packers played their 3 toughest games on the road against teams currently running away with their divisions. You could go on if you want but it won't make those of us who are optimistic stop being so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No agenda or master plan. I don't even know that that means, unless trying to make me look like a "bad fan" makes your view more valid, if you have a view, that is Edited November 13, 2018 by cannondale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said anyone was the greatest team ever - but the two teams you mentioned will be in the playoffs I have no problem with people talking about whatever they want to their hearts content.

I agree. That stuff always catches my eye. If you think GB got their azzes handed to them by SF, you have very slanted views of the NFL. If you don't actually think that, but posted it anyway, you have an agenda. Pure and simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't alone on my viewpoint of that game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't alone on my viewpoint of that game. We dropped more than 30, and pushed them all over the field 130% more than they pushed us. If we got our azzes handed to us, surely SF did as well. Did both defenses get pushed around by both offenses? Yes. But that's not what you're saying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago is 6-3 but because their qb is bad they still don't qualify? I don't really see how any team can rack up playoff caliber wins when there is always a reason why a win wasn't playoff caliber. Outside of the Rams/Patriots which games do we have that would count? Just the Vikings? Or will this Thursday also count? I'm assuming if we lose it will, but if we win Seattle is 4-6 and all of a sudden not a playoff caliber team.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
