Green Bay giving Bears a beat down for the ages.

Several records set today, even if only team records. Wonder how many Pack will have by the end.

Better the Bears than the Lions!

NBC should have flexed out of this when they had the chance.
 
Bears have been outscored 73-7 in first halves of their last two games.
 
and ESPN will be all over the Pack's junk, instead of giving Detroit credit again.
 
Yup, tomorrow Green Bay will be at the top of everyone's power rankings
 
Like that commercial Mattt did a few years ago where he had a great game on Sunday and had the party all set only to have AR have this kind of game on Monday night.

Life immitating art...not that Matt had a career game, but still, who's winning the division???
 
I doubt a 11 yard pass in which he wasn't a superstud in a 20-16 game deserves top billing anyway..
 
Why do people care about media attention?
If people don't understand why 6 TDs in a half is more impressive than two TDs in a game, they deserve to be angry and the "unfair media"

Yeah, but the game was interesting and close the whole game. People probaly turned off the Bears/Packers game by the 2nd Q.
Miami was a hot team coming in. Detroit too. Both great defenses. Miami shutting down Rivers the week before. Perfect opportunity to flex this game......the Bears are a joke.

And for the record, Stafford shredded that defense yesterday. He was good yesterday.

Of course it's more impressive, but it's not about the TD throws. It's about the game itself. It was a joke...the Bears are a joke. That game was turned off by EVERY Bears fan on the planet midway through the 2nd Q. As a football fan, i flipflopped after the 1st Q..lol. Maybe a Packers fan watched the whole thing, but i doubt it. It's about keeping "the people" interested. Nobody knew that the Packers were going to rout the Bears like this, so it's a hard game to flex.
 
21-0, when I shut it off. That Bears team would lose to the Raiders.

The point being..AR on a scoring tear or Detroit? With the media, like ESPN? We'll never get top billing ..it's just the way it is. Yes, Chicago blows..

I don't believe that. If Stafford was as good as AR winning MVP and throwing 6TDs in a 1/2 I think ESPN would run with that. It's not like Green Bay Wisconsin is a huge media market. I am listening to Colin Cowherd and he was giving the Lions some love this morning.

I didn't mean Detroit as in "because it's Detroit." Not having a top end QB was put into play on my reasoning. And it was about the results, 11 yard pass in a 20-16 game, it has no teeth.

The results?? The Lions game was at least exciting to watch. It kept you interested. Watching Rodgers absolutely torch the pathetic Bears was laughable. Embarrassing really. Wtf don't you understand? I know you just want to rip on Stafford by saying "he only threw a 11 yard pass" because it's all you do and you don't get it, but it was a good game to watch. Everybody knew that the Packers were going to win that game, but obviously not in that fashion.
I thought the Pack would win by double digits at least and I was right. You're telling me that the people making these calls weren't thinking the same thing? Game should have been flexed, but it's the biggest rivalry in football, maybe even all sports, division game, multitude of stars...a number of reasons why it wasn't. I get it.

And a 20-16 game as all the teeth in the world over an embarrassing route job by the Packers over a high school team. Get your head on straight.
 
It was exciting but just like any sport the offense rules the day. I didn't make the rules, just the way it is.
