Packers @ Bears GDT: Sunday Sep 10th, 3:25pm CST
Moderators: NCF, salmar80, BF004, APB, Packfntk
people that watch this high lite vid and don't see Watson as one of the best WR prospects we've had in there lifetime are not being honest with themselves, unless he is unable to stay healthy and even with a new QB Watson is a 1000 plus yrd receiver, easy peasy.
Reed and Musgrave, but we all know that Aaron Jones is and always was going to be the focal point in this game. You all knew that, right?
RIP JustJeff
The Lions, like the Packers, have a young roster. They have a hell of a team, and they are the team to beat in the NFC North. Say what you will about their performance Thursday night but if I were a Lions fan, I'd be pretty stoked.YoHoChecko wrote: ↑09 Sep 2023 09:48The Lions that just toughed out 14 whole points against a middle-of-the-road defense missing their best player (and a top rotational D-lineman next to him)?packman114 wrote: ↑09 Sep 2023 09:21I'm hoping our offense this year looks similar to the Lions offense. Heavy dose of running with a nice 50/50 split of run/pass ratio. Our receivers seem similar to the Lions as well as the o-lines. If Love plays like Goff we have a chance to really surprise people and be in the mix come playoff time. Hoping that Musgrave & Reed play as mature in the regular season as they seemed to be in the preseason.
This year is going to be fun watching, no real expectations, just watch the young guys develop. I really believe that Love sitting for 3 years will once again prove to the NFL that our formula for raising QBs is the best model.
I want to look nothing like that.
But yes, I do want to see a good running game and a plan to make it as easy as possible for our first-time starting QB
I doubt Chicago is dumb enough to let Jones run wild when we don't have a receiver that has played meaningful snaps. I expect a lot of 8 in the box, so Love is still going to have to beat this D.

I don’t know how many times i have to say that i think the lions are building something impressive. But when someone says “I hope the packers offense looks like the lions” after the literal only football game of the season featured a Lions offense that looked disjointed and struggled to move the ball, I say “no.”
That people them are defending the Lions from that comment is weird.

And I agree with BF: Watson news took me from like 80% to 60% about this game. That feels right

Jones is a Bears killer. If they load the box he’ll catch the ball instead of run it. I don’t think their plan will dictate whether Jones has a big day or not. Just how he has a big day.
A couple sources have pointed out that in all the games we’ve been short handed at WR in the MLF era, Jones less the team in receptions.
I am still super confident. Our roster with car salesmen at WR is still better than Chicago's offense. I don't think we will have trouble matching points.YoHoChecko wrote: ↑10 Sep 2023 08:40And I agree with BF: Watson news took me from like 80% to 60% about this game. That feels right

concerning offense I do expect 20 points or more, on defense I dream of shutting them out
agree about Jones, he's not just a 1 dimensional RB, I also think the Bears will struggle against our defense, I expect the pass rush to get to Fields, and that our run defense has improved, with Both Campbell and Walker spying he also may have trouble running which has been his best look, basically I expect to trounce the Bears, 2 score win.YoHoChecko wrote: ↑10 Sep 2023 08:42Jones is a Bears killer.

I genuinely wish this was a 1:00 game because I'm SO READY for it to finally be here.

I think we see a heavy dose of Dillon and Jones on the field at the same time. It adds pass catchers while still threatening the run.
Love in the redzone will decide the outcome of this game.
I would not be surprised if Fields gets knocked out of the game by a big hit when scrambling.
