 Who you all rooting for tonight? (Packers or Bears?)
Either team losing is good for the Lions. But there are different schools of thought re: which is "more better" (lol)... what do you think?

 Re: Who you all rooting for tonight? (Packers or Bears?)
I think tonight is going to expose the Packers. That defense is full of stars but out of wack except for Matthews and Rodgers has been in a slump for the last 5 games. He's only completing 25% of his passes over 15 yards, his rating during that period is in the 50's and Greg Jennings hasn't played a full game for the last 3 starts. It's carried over from last season, and it will continue. Cobb and Jones are a big drop off from Jennings and Driver isn't getting any play time. The offensive line lost it's protection caller in Wells, who went to the Rams and now on IR, and they were steamrolled 5 on 4 by the 49ers. Rodgers has weapons, but can't get to him with that OL. And you can forget running, which makes it harder to give Rodgers time since teams know what's coming.
Tonight's game might make GB's defense look a little better because Chicago's OL isn't much better. The Colts lead and were keeping pressure on Cutler until Freeny left with an injury and Cutler took advantage. It'll be a close game, but barring turnovers, Bears should easily win.

 Re: Who you all rooting for tonight? (Packers or Bears?)
I like the idea of GB winning making both teams 1-1; then again seeing GB @ 0-2 is nice, but da Bears @ 2-0 might make me sick

 Re: Who you all rooting for tonight? (Packers or Bears?)
The question you need to ask yourself is "who will the Lions be fighting against to get into the playoffs?" Then you root for the other team.

By Brotha-from-anotha-mutha is from Chitown, so out of loyalty to him I guess I'll bite the bullet and hate all over green bay

Dont care. Just want Forte, Marshall, and Cobb to do good since they are on my Fantasy teams.

 Re: Who you all rooting for tonight? (Packers or Bears?)
I just want them to rip each other to shreds. edited to add: Do you realize the NFC North could look like this after this Sunday? Minny 2-0 Det 1-1 GB 1-1 Chi 1-1

 Re: Who you all rooting for tonight? (Packers or Bears?)
It would be nice for the Pack to lose, because if they do knew, I will know that they are likely to have a pretty bad year. But I'm not rooting for anyone. Just saying it would be nice.

I'll tell you one thing. I'm not scared of either team.

 Re: Who you all rooting for tonight? (Packers or Bears?)
After watching that, I think the Lions might actually have a shot at winning the divison.

 Re: Who you all rooting for tonight? (Packers or Bears?)
I couldn't be happier about how that played out last night.
The Bears were all cocky and arrogant and feeling their Wheaties and GB comes along and punches them right square in the old snot locker. Maybe they just wrecked the Bears whole season. ROFL.
