Bears completely gave up when down by 35, but they should be ashamed of themselves. There was no effort at all. The Rogers to Jordy connection is as good as I've ever seen I think.

That might be your best reason. These guys draft and develop really, really well. Sickens me, too.
Well, when Rodgers was out last year all those players the Packers drafted and developed became the worst team in the league. Rodgers makes their front office look good.

I hope so. There's talk that Trestman has lost the team. If they've quit on him, that could be good news for the Vikes next week. I get the feeling we're either going to see a convincing Vikings win or a Bears team that shows a sense of pride they've been missing lately and gives the Vikings all they can handle.

Hardly.

They were 2-4-1 without him. Not good, but not the worst in the league.

I hate the Packers, too. Especially Aaron Rodgers. But facts are facts, and you now see the Vikings attempting to model them by building through the draft.

FYI:
@evansilva -- QB stats vs #Bears D last 3 weeks: 77-of-102 (75.5%) for 972 yards (9.53 YPA), 13 TDs, 0 INTs. Tannehill lit them up, too. Bridgewater next.

Eh, I wouldn't say that, 2-2-1 with Matt Flynn as the QB is quite a feat indeed. Cant remember who they tried to plug in their before him.

Yea we can beat those losers, hopefully such a humiliating loss has them mailing it in, rather then getting fired up.

This was a bad week for the Vikings. I think we lost a half game on every team in front of us for a playoff spot :(

Of course its unlikely it will matter, but it would stink to put together an incredible string of games down the stretch and miss out on the playoffs by 1 win.

Vikings and heartbreak? Those two things don't often happen to this team or its fans.

In true Viking fashion, I bet the Bears figure things out and stop the Vikings offense cold. You know it will happen.
