Official Game Day Thread: Packers @ Bears - 1/23 - NFC Championship Game: WIN 21 - 14

well this is it. ever since week 3 us Packer fans have been patiently waiting for our chance at revenge! we patiently waited and were rewarded with a small taste of revenge week 17 at home.

Now, its time. the chance for sweet sweet revenge and redemption that each and every one of us wanted. Time to go to Soldier Field and show the Bears who is the better team once and for all!

There was no one in the NFC playoffs that i wanted to play more than the Chicago Bears.

You think? Ha.

No third string quarterbacks or phantom "no touchdown" this time. Just a red-hot team clicking on all cylinders.

:chisux:

Looks like its chicago. Im excited.

Didn't help the Falcons. They were a bit upset that all the TV talking heads and prognosticators were picking the Packers. On the pregame, only Terry picked ATL.

Anyone going?

I looked at tickets and they were going for 2k for a pair on the lower level at about the 40

Think twice, Rex Ryan said it's the Super Bowl or bust, the Jets are only the second team to beat the Colts and Pats back to back. I would love nothing more than the Packers playing the Jets in SB 45. It would be quite historical after all we know the Pack won SB I & II, but the Jets won III over the Baltimore Colts.

I hope Walden has a field day on Cutler again. The thing with the Packers this year is we have had so many guys just take the spotlight for a game and then they are the newest thing to defend, and our traditional playmakers start making plays. Starks, Walden, Green(e?), have great games get in the spotlight, then OMG Williams makes another pick, Matthews gets a huge sack, Rodgers is on fire. They are the multiheaded dragon that won't go down.

haha @ the jay cutler groupie making a user name today to talk junk

Thanks for the link Ivo, its sad Hutson and Hinkle couldn't of used their magic that game. May the Packers avenge their loss and make it a win on Sunday

I Agree....

I was really diggin' being an underdog throughout the playoffs...

Stupid Vegas

youre going to be so sad sunday night

Who should we match up Greg Olsen with? I am thinking of Williams, and keep Shields on Forte or Hester. We can leave Woodson and Walden help out with blitzes, but I think Shields on Olsen would be trouble for the Pack.

Stay thirsty, Tramon. Stay thirsty.

I think it will depend on where olsen lines up. If he line up on the outside tramon will hold him if he lines up on the inside woodson would hold him then they will have worry about woodson coming of the edge.

"Your name is Jay"

That kills me. LOL.

haha what a great picture PFanCan

The Bears are going to come apart like a cheap suit.

Its getting pretty hilarious watching the media here in Chicago. I think every channel had a crew reporting live from various bars last night. I heard "OMG This is JUST like 1985" about ten times. Sorry, but anyone who thinks THIS Bears team has anything in common with the team of Super Bowl XX fame is either a) dilusional, or b) too young to remember 1985.

while I'm confident we can win this game... I do think the bears d matches up fairly well against our offense. This is going to be a slugfest and I just hope the refs don't make any bullshit calls against either team. Still think we win 20-17.

as for the jets - steelers. Rex Ryan has put together 2 amazing game plans against the teams they've played and I expect he will take advantage of Pitt's weak (and getting weaker) O-line. I see 2 #6 seeds in the Superbowl this year.

Rodgers looks like NFL's scariest quarterback - NFL - Yahoo! Sports

Once again, Ivo, thank you a lot. As soon as I get home, gonna dig through your links.

I like Dungy. Again, it will be up to the offensive line to control their front 4. If the Bears linebackers are dropping into coverage, maybe Starks becomes the hero on offense with gashes up the middle. I'd take 4, 5 yards per play until the 'backers move up and A-train lights 'em up.

This is going to be a hell of a game.
