Bears vs. Packers

[Metal Panda]

Pre-game thoughts:

This one is only worth watching to see how Rex Grossman does. I'm glad the Bears finally made the switch and realized that no, Kyle Orton wasn't winning them games and actually was probably getting in the way of their offensive success. It amazed me how 18 turnovers in 13 games was considered "game management".

The Bears win this one easily, more than likely, but the score will probably appear close.

Brett clearly wants to win this game, but I have a feeling this drive stalls before it gets into field goal range.

Grossman looks fantastic. I can't believe people were chiding Lovie for not sticking with Orton. Lord...

Other than that one pick, Grossman has looked AMAZING. I do feel sorry for Green Bay though, they've had the worst possible luck this season but I'm hoping Chicago and Baltimore win.

Chicago needs to cover the -7 spread. :)

Yeah, you do seem to like bad QB's.

Bears screwed my parlay up. Instead of me having a chance to win $225, it's now down to $120.

Favre had another ***** game once again. This guy is done and he needs to retire after this season. He is throwing INT's left and right and he will end up having about 30 INT this year. It seems like that he can't throw TD's any more either. Favre you are a great QB in all, but it's time to hang it up man.

Yeah, and Grossman's arm looked live. He's got a strong arm, I think they said that it was only his 8th start? He's gonna be a good one if he can stay healthy.

Farve is done, its getting hard to watch him play. Its embarrassing.

why in the world would anyone want orton over grossman?

What was your parlay and how did the Bears screw it up? Didn't they just barely cover the spread?

No, it was -7. That means it was a push. The final score was 24-17. The Vikings really screwed it up though and lost it for me. Who would have thought they'd choke again.

This was my parlay.
