       As a Bears fan, I am happy with the win...I still think the Packers are the better team, but they did not get cheated by the refs. The refs didn't fumble on that last possession...Jones did..
       And if you want to talk about questionable pass interference, the Packers corners were faceguarding and not looking at the football, which will get called every single time.
       Also, Julius Peppers got blatantly held about 15 times, and only 4 were actually called. Yes, there is holding on every play, but with Peppers it was blatant tonight...In closing, the Bears earned this victory, but the Packers are still the better team in my opinion...
    Bear down!

    Yep, Peppers was held damn near every pass play.  They decided that it was better to get a penalty 1/4 of the time when beaten rather than take a sack/fumble/int/injury by Rodgers.  People make the mistake of assuming penalties are just the mistake of the penalized team rather than based on what the opponent is doing to you on the field of play.

    Some games and ref calls are questionable, i agree. Greed causes corruption, it happens. i don't think Tim Donaghy is the only one doing it.

    Speaking of questionable, what about those Packers D Backs? They were beaten like rented mules all night.

    That LB too, sort of felt bad for him - Chillar, I think.

    .I still think the Packers are the better team


    They looked roughly equal to me.    Their stats are pretty close, too.

    How are the Packers the better team?


    Because the media says so?   


    Don't let the hype get in the way when you're trying to.pick winners.
