[QUOTE="weeds, post: 533545, member: 39"] With all of the high expectations generated over the last few days ... good and positive things FINALLY... in a season that has seen its ups (early) and downs (more recently), and a few fortunate wins these last couple of weeks, AND more than a few astounding losses by the Bears and Lions ... it would be pretty easy to just assume a "W" is about to laid on our collective doorsteps. Me? Not so much. It is positively stupendous news that Rodgers and Cobb are back. Their mere presence in the lineup increases the Pack's ability to generate some time consuming drives, thus keeping our defense off of the field. The Bears however, have a top notch offense - even with Cutler in ( I really do not want to see the other guy today). This game is NOT a gimme and I'm more than a little wary of getting too cocky about this game. I am willing to concede that Rodgers' and Cobb's return give us a bona fide PUNCHER'S CHANCE to pull this thing out. However, I am not dumb enough to think for one minute that the Packers now blow out the Bears as if one of Rodgers' tosses, like a lightning bolt from on Olympus is going to cause the Bears to lay down and die at the Packers' feet. Oh nooooo.... the Bears are going to show up because they get paid too.This game is going to be a close game that can swing either way AS ALWAYS. Wouldn't the Bears just LOVE to beat the Packers twice this season AND knock them out of the playoffs with the same blow (not a question...that is a rhetorical statement). Yeah, I'm a little up tight about this game to be sure solely because the expectations of what Rodgers can do after being sidelined for so long. This wasn't a 2 week sabbatical to pass concussion testing ... this was a full blown broken bone. We aren't even 100% sure that this bone is completely healed or if he IS being rushed back - we have no way of knowing for sure and Packers' press conferences aren't a good source of useful information....nor should they be. All that I know for sure is that I like our odds with #12 to make a game of it. Go Pack!! [/QUOTE]
