What do you mean healthy? The general consensus seems to be he hasn't played a game healthy in about a decade. We should bet on what quarter of the first game that Rodgers is acting like he has injured something but somehow is still able to play.

He was fine in 2016. He had issues the past two years. Not sure what you’re talking about with the decade thing.

You think he’s lying about being hurt last year? Are you blind?

He played in all 16 games including those in which his team was already eliminated from playoff contention.

I don't doubt he was less than 100% at times but he seems to spend most of his time when not throwing the ball making sure the camera knows it.

That's pretty weak but "I don't doubt that he was less than 100%" is pretty hilarious phrasing in context of last year's injury

Once again, he was still playing in meaningless games with a coach he hated and wanted fired.

I don't know what is funny about that. Most NFL players have things that happen that make them less than 100% during the season.

It's more fun to be a victim

There will never be an effective vaccine. I'll never get one anyway.

I haven't been that cocky really.

So your prediction of Rodgers throwing for 4300 yards, 50 TDs, and winning MVP isn't cocky?

I don't expect the Bears to just show up and win 12 games this season. In fact, I do expect them to "regress" in terms of their win total. They are without question the best defensive team in the division and should improve on offense. It may not be a repeat of last season, but the Bears should repeat as division champs. Hopefully they play through January and into February this time.

I never predicted 50 TDs. 40 doesn't seem unreasonable.

I mis-typed, excuse me. You said 40 TD, 5 INT.

Talk about a needed reality check

Can’t wait. It’s been fun seeing Bears fans act cocky for the first time in a decade but the summer has gone on long enough. Time for a reality check.

"A few years ago"

That's kinda the point. He is trending downward. Can still be pretty good, likely won't be MVP type, and probably definitely won't throw 40+ TDs this year.

Probably definitely?

We’ll see. I can’t see the future like you can. If I could I’d probably be in Vegas making Dr Ken money.

For instance they were never taught that Columbus was a slave owner.

It might be too soon to say the Packers have a serious problem with their run game -- after all, neither Aaron Jones nor Jamaal Williams (both have hamstring issues) have played a snap in the preseason -- but the installation of new coach Matt LaFleur's outside-zone-oriented scheme has been a rough go.

The Packers totaled just 7 yards rushing on seven attempts in the first half a week after they had only 38 yards in 13 carries in the first half against the Texans. That's 45 yards in 20 carries when the opponents were playing starters or key backups. Any hope that sixth-round rookie Dexter Williams could serve as a change-of-pace back looks bleak given his inability to hang on to the ball (he dropped a pass and couldn't secure a handoff in which a fumble was charged to the quarterback).

For instance they were never taught that Columbus was a slave owner.

16.54%

The percentage of Aaron Jones runs that went for 10 yards or more. That was third most among running backs. Jones had 934 yards from scrimmage and nine touchdowns for the Packers last year. His 5.47 YPC ranked first among backs with at least 75 carries.

Just need Aaron Jones to get and stay healthy.

The crisis consists precisely in the fact that the old is dying and the new cannot be born; in this interregnum a great variety of morbid symptoms appear.

No regression anticipated, huh?

He's not a Chicago Bear, so no. He'll probably be even better this year.

Man if the Packers can't run it and the Bears know they have to throw all day long, pin the ears back and get after Rodgers every play. Likely be a llooooooonnnnnnggg day a the office for the Packers on Sept 5th
