I've been saving the Packers DST on the bench for 4 weeks waiting just for this moment to play them if I made the playoffs. Packers always come to eat against the Bears.

What defense doesn't against the Bears? Bears have one of the worst offenses in the league.
Call me crazy, blind, stupid, etc. but I think the Bears beat the Packers this week.
Im usually as big of an optimist as there is for the Bears, but with how they are playing now, I simply don't see it. I'm in a "prove it" mode when it comes to the Bears playing the Packers. I always have them down as an "L" until I see us beat them at least once, perhaps twice, in decisive fashion.

They will probably be back. The same goes for Nelson and Lang. They can kick EDS out of the LG spot and have Barclay at RT and Lang back in his comfortable position of LT. Another guy, though his role has been limited, is Driver. He is a Bears killer. Even though he's slowing down, I'm hoping he can bounce back from the thumb injury. I mean, he had a couple really huge catches against the Bears, including a touchdown.
For what it's worth, I hope you're right. If we do beat the Packers, that is exactly the type of win that gets you momentum into the final 2 games of the season and into the playoffs.
The Bears also signed linebacker Jerry Franklin to a two-year deal and promoted wide receiver Joe Anderson from the practice squad. Guard Chris Riley signed to the practice squad while Andrew Gurode was waived.
Paul Tagliabue affirmed the findings of Roger Goodell in the NFL's investigation of the New Orleans Saints' bounty program but vacated all discipline issued to the players who were punished, league spokesman Greg Aiello announced on Twitter.
Not that it matters, most of those guys are done. Doesn't mention the coaches though.
Wow... Gould being out hurts. This team can't buy a break.
I find this statement sort of silly. This team has had plenty of breaks, up to and including the Packers/Seattle debacle which helped give the Bears the division lead (for a while). The fact is, we haven't been able to play to the level we should in order to capitalize on the breaks we had, and no we have pissed them away and they put themselves into the situation they are in. I'm not sure the Bears deserve any more breaks, they need to simply go out and earn a spot in the playoffs.
