[QUOTE="Terre Haute Cheesehead, post: 478364, member: 3410"] Yeah, Chicocheese, that analysis amplifies with my Bear buddies, too. I, along with my Bear buddies are old enough to remember the early to mid 60's when the Bears had Sayers and Butkus and were very good and relevent to football during that decade, but then they went into hybernation until '85. Yesterday, those guys were complaining that the zebras were biased in their officiating and that it cost the Bears the game, despite the fact that the Packers kept them in the game with a fumble and another turnover on the bone-head lateral play. The offensive pass interference calls were accurate and yes, pass defenders (as in Shields defending Jeffrey) can get away with a grab of the jersey as they ALL do in the league. Sometimes the refs call it and sometimes not. There were NO calls made or were not made that would have turned that game on a dime yesterday! The point I tried making to my Bear pals (and I think they realize that I am correct) is the fact that the Bears are just NOT as good as the Packers and haven't been for years and it is so apparent, in which case, the team that is outperforming the inferior team on the field is going to get the breaks and/or calls.
