[QUOTE="DoURant, post: 1034751, member: 12388"] For you and your fellow Bears fans, you better hope so. You know what, I'll even go one step further... the NFL as a brand should hope so, also. Why? The Packers vs Bears is "supposed" to be the biggest rivalry in the league. In "Name" it is... on "Paper" since 1992, it hasn't lived up to the billing. The Packers have dominated the Bears in that timeframe with a 50-15 record (including one playoff victory). Aside for one streak at the end of Favre's tenure in GB and ARod's first start when the Bears won 7 of 8 games, this rivalry hasn't been much of one. The Packers have had two 10 game winning streaks during those 50 wins, one of those being current. Now I really enjoy that it has been lopsided in our favor, however a piece of me really hates that on "Paper", the Vikings have been our biggest rivalry since 1992, with us holding a 35-29-2 record. For that matter, the Lions have been a more formidable opponent than the Bears, 46-20 record. With Love and Williams as our teams QB's, this could and should turn the tables to it once again being the biggest NFL rivalry on paper too, not just in name moving forward. That my friend/foe, would be great for the NFL. Hopefully for you and your fellow Bears fans, they don't screw up this gift received from the Panthers, allowing you to draft Williams after a 7-9 season. The future looks bright for both the Packers and Bears, hopefully our hearts will holdout watching the games on Sundays, so we can enjoy the ride. [/QUOTE]
