The Bears would have more than that one Superbowl with Jim McMahon if you bastards didn't intentionally injure him.




The best Wide Receiver ever, Randy Moss, knows.

Randy Moss was a lot of things, but no DC was ever up all night worrying how they were going to contain Donald Driver. Nice player, but not someone who changed coverage schemes. He's an Anquan Bolden or Hines Ward. Nothing wrong with that.

I don't know, Gorgon..... Driver doesn't blow up linebackers out of spite like Ward has been known to.

@ Helgrenze . . . I am with you about trading Vick, if Miami will take him, then please! And let's cut Young while we are at it. I'd rather the team struggle a little bit with an inexperienced qb than with a famous one who only played the position intelligently for one year of his career.

I have never been a Vick fan, was surprised last year, this year the tiger is showing his stripes. Loved McNabb, sad he sucked so bad for the Vikings.

Very up and down year for the NFL, interested to see if the Packers can stay hot and if the 49ers are for real (some of there wins were a bit iffy).

Still love football, even if my team (the Eagles) are making me nauseated.

You seriously think Donald Driver is better than one of the top 3 Wide Receivers of all time? Moss is right there with Jerry Rice in terms of greatness...

I never see ANY Driver highlights, while when Moss played for the Vikings, and later, the Patriots, he was on Sportcenter almost every week.

While they have played in different offenses, Driver is sitting on ~10k yards receiving to Moss' ~15k with only one fewer season played. Also, Driver's 55 Receiving TD's don't touch Moss' 155.

However, at least Driver can look at his own face in a mirror and not see a major league donkey-cave.

Young is only on a one year contract, so he is likely gone end of season. And all else aside, Reid knows just when to dump a player, Look at the history: McNabb, Staley, Westbrook, ... ok Akers may have been a bad move but you get the point...
and +1 on the bold.

Randy "Ran over a meter maid" Moss was the only good receiver they had on their team, of course he's going to get more TDs and yards. Driver is among a plethora of wide receivers who are just as good. Of course with Brett Favre Driver has broken fingers while catching passes while Moss was catching little pansy tosses.

Moss's longest TD was only 82 yards, Driver's longest was 90.

Brady throws pansy tosses...wut? Tom Brady is currently on par, if a little worse, than Aaron Rodgers, and that's just because he is exiting his prime.

8 yards matters, right, even though Moss has the NFL record for most TD's in a season, 23.

You don't go 18-1 with only one good WR. Nice bs.

Let's see, Favre broke fingers and Brady didn't.

Oh yeah, you go 18-1 with one good receiver and cheating.

But Driver has made better plays, shrugging off tackles, being sidelined and still maintaining the ball. Moss is an donkey-cave, the Packers have class.

I hope you realize this makes zero sense.

I hate Belichick as much as the next guy for cheating with Spygate, but it did not give them a 18-1 record, sorry.

The Driver sentence is, again, just entirely random. Moss was known for making some of the weirdest, most acrobatic catches ever seen.

The Packers have class? Has the rancid cheese you wear on your heads devolved your brain cells?

You know the more I read your posts the more it reminds me of this.





We unfortunately don't have any special insults for the Bears, being called the Bears is insult enough.

You know what's funny about Moss? He's been playing since 1998, Driver's been since 1999. Moss has had over 200 more receptions than Driver and Moss has been on teams where he was the only real target.

Its also funny how you never see him around anymore...
"Randy Moss is a player whose skills are diminishing, and he's in denial of those eroding skills...Randy was a great receiver, but he lacked the work ethic and the desire to cultivate any skills that would compensate for what he was losing physically later in his career." Walsh also reported that Moss told him, "'I'm too old to practice on Wednesday and Thursday, but I'm not too old to play on Sunday.'


The guy's a punk past his prime.




Driver is a beast.

Having Devin Hester on your team makes the opposing teams cry.

Of course there was not holding on that play that anyone else but that ref saw.

Devin Hester you are ridiculous!

The Green Bay Packers mascot..congratulations.

Stats show that Moss was always better than Driver.

If you don't like Moss, say hello to that Blackmon kid on OSU...he wear's #81 as well, and makes basically the same plays that Moss is famous for.



Your team is pathetic.

Also, there was holding on the play and it happened as the two teams were running towards the endzone at the beginning of the play, although that wouldn't change much of anything. 51 seconds left, the Bears would have to do an onside kick. If the Packers got the ball again then the Bears still would've lost.


Wow, I can just use Driver to show the greatness of the Packers.




Shame the Bears got intercepted by an almost 400 pound guy.

Anyone can deflect a pass and intercept it, no matter how much they weigh.

And if you look at the first video I posted you will see that there is no holding on that play.

I do not mind if the bears loose a fair game, but to have the chances spoiled by a BS call, is just not right.

I would post the definition of Packer, but it is totally NSFW, so I will not.

But I will say that the #1 reason the bears are better than the packers is:

If you put Fudge in front of bears, it sounds like candy.

the packers are having a good year so far, only time will tell if they will make it to the NFC championship game.

There was holding on that play, number 21 was holding as soon as the ball was punted off.

I would say that the numbers speak for themselves in terms of team quality. Packers have the most league championships, and 4 Super Bowl wins. That's 11 league championships and 4 Super Bowls compared to the Bear's record of 8 league championships and 1 Super Bowl.

Well, at least Bear's fans are original in their headgear... oh wait. Wow, so unoriginal, but I guess that's what happens when you try to copy greatness.

Did you even look at the clip?

Did you even listen to the announcers?

There was no holding.

Right, so you think that your aesthetic regard for a player has bearing on his ability.

Thank you for reminding me why I avoid discussing sports (right now I'm very bored, waiting for a flight) on the internet.

Your team's name is the worst in professional sports, your fans are the biggest scumbags on the planet, and your team is so dumb that you let Jim McMahon tag along for the ride to steal another superbowl ring, and let him wear a BEAR'S JERSEY to the celebration.
