2012 Bears @ Packers

185th time they've gotten together over 91 years welcome everybody to Lambeau Field I'm Brad Nessler with mike Mayock this one goes back a long time he started in 1921 the last four games have gone to the Packers Mike but when we talked to Lovie Smith last night he said I think this is maybe the best team we brought the Lambo if but keep in mind Jay Cutler is Owen too as the Chicago bear at Lambeau his numbers are horrific 51 percent completions one touchdown against six interceptions he's been sacked eight times but Brad there really is reason for optimism tailback Michael Bush will help the run game second-round pick al Sean Jeffery vertical threat out wide but bottom line it's all about Brandon Marshall and Jay Cutler 15 targets a week ago nine catches but it goes beyond that it's about trust it's about security maybe we could call him Jay Cutler's Whoopie but I guarantee you when he gets one-on-one coverage Jays gonna throw it at him right now already sure guys got a one game lead over Green Bay the Packers have lost as many regular-season games as they did all of last year there's a lot of folks getting ready to jump in the Fox River over this it might not be must-win in week 2 but it's better win I think I've been telling everybody in Green Bay all week calm down okay you lost to one of the best football teams in the league in San Francisco who's also one of the most visible offensively you've got one of the best players in the league and Aaron Rodgers and a plethora of receivers and running backs got to get the run game going a little bit defensively claim app uses the that can get to the quarterback the key to this football game is that some other guys get involved number 53 their first-round pick Nick Fury it's got to get pressure on the quarterback it can't all be about Clay Matthews Chicago won the toss and deferred Green Bay will get the ball first tonight's game available in HD and s ap our first of 13 the Thursday Night Football games on NFL Network Mike McCarthy in his seventh season of course the Super Bowl title two years ago Lovie Smith in his ninth year the second longest tenured coach in the NFC old a George Halas and Mike Ditka have won more games as the head man of the Bears Randall Cobb so dangerous a punt return for a touchdown last week he's got three already in his second year he's going to get a touch here out past the 15-yard line big hit by sheriff McManus some special teams so out come the packers led by Aaron Rodgers the reigning most valuable player in the league this is the guys in front of them including Jeff Saturday the NewsCenter after all those years in Indianapolis with Peyton Manning Cedric Benson a new addition to they've got to get their ground game going there's the receivers Jones Nelson Cobb and Finley so the Packers have to start from their own 17 yard line and Brad look where Benson is he's not in the eye where he's most comfortable he'll get the first carry got to and that's about what he averaged last week against the 49ers the Bears defensively so we take a look at their front for Julius Peppers lovie smith says he's the best defensive player in the NFL he'll be all over that front line tonight Brian Urlacher playing on a bad knee Lance Briggs seven straight Pro Vols and there's the back end Jennings who had two interceptions a week ago the Packers go with no huddle and they'll go back to Cedric Benson and this time a decent gain as he got it out close to the first down he's gonna be up a yard and a half shy after picking up six and Brad what was our conversation with Mike McCarthy about the run game the other day it was nine carries for 18 yards he blamed himself for getting out of the run game too early and I think what you're seeing here is two things number one Benson where he's most comfortable seven yards deep and number two they're gonna commit to the run game tonight Aaron Rodgers in the gun on third down and a short tube and he'll throw for it and he's it's Joey now students broken up Nelson was looking for a pass interference call on Tim Jennings and didn't get it so it's three and out for Green Bay Tim Jennings for me got a game ball last week against Indianapolis did a great job here on the slant comes over the top strips football last week he had two interceptions now you got to fight to get back underneath and actually Jordy Nelson sort of caught the football devin hester has 12 career punt returns for touchdowns matt say wow did he hit this a mile and a mile high Esther's got to take a late fair catch great puns 56 yards and it pins the Bears likewise inside their own 20 good job by the Green Bay punter Chicago and Jay Cutler coming out and here's how it looks up front for him Jarvis Webb will be a busy guy with Clay Matthews tonight the backs and receivers some great backs not only Matt Forte but also the new addition in Michael Bush and there's a receiving core probably the best that Chicago's ever seen at the 18 yard line first snap for the Bears offense last week Jay Cutler 3333 yards in a couple of touchdowns play action on the first play and he gets pressure and down it goes inside the 5dj smith the linebacker exactly the same way they started a week ago against Indianapolis DJ Smith is going to come right up the gut max protection web steps out play-action it's missed the block is missed by Forte Cutler is sacked this is max protection what Matt Forte did wrong there's he turned his body he's got to stay square - DJ Smith and Kent his helmet and make a block it was max but it wasn't max enough second dad at 23 back inside the five throws will be in his own end zone he'll keep it on the ground Forte trying to weave his way to get some of that back and he got it out for four yards Green Bay's defense much-maligned a year ago because of all the outages they gave up especially through the air an NFL record in fact already they've gotten some pressure worthy starting in there for Smith the Night Hawk Smith Matthews impairing the number one draft choice the linebackers on the backhand samshield Starling at one corner in Charles Woodson the 15-year veteran has moved this year to safety third down and a whole bunch Mike Matthews is the guy that you can't pressure but the one they really need is Nick Perry Jay Cutler in the gun they're gonna play it safe here for today on a quick opening draw got it back to the 16 still a shy of the original line of scrimmage and Chicago will have to turn around and punt it right back to Green Bay that is almost the identical start that Chicago had a week ago against Indy first series they were horrific with the sack second series Cutler threw the interception but after that their offense gotten rhythm Randall Cobb had a punt return for a touchdown last year against Minnesota he had one last week as you saw there in the season opener he stands back near his own 35 yard line as pot lace will punt near the fire not as good a kick as his Green Bay counterpart but it to handle a manhole and hit and a pile up Sam Shields is down there that ball had shields and now this is what the Bears and Packers have done for 90 years the way they described it in several coach who said it to be on the field as you play you play to the second whistle here here's another look and there's shields going right back to the ball after it hit him Green Bay on offense when we come back valuable player those numbers may never be duplicated the Packer fans think they can be Tom Brady had a year a little while ago I think he went like 36 and four but those kind of numbers are crazy in my lifetime that's I don't ever expect to see that again you're Michael Finley the tight end goes out in a slot the other time in Crabtree in the backfield first down play-action for Rogers fires to the 45 yard line and that's good enough for a first down again the Packers going without a huddle Finley did a great job working away from Roche who initially had two coverage Rodgers gave him time to uncover and the offensive line did the rest here's a stretch play to Cedric Benson and this one's not going anywhere maybe a yard as we check in third member of our team Alex Flanagan Alex hey Brad well you're saying Mike McCarthy's early commitment to the run game it was something that he talked about all week long leading into this game he only had two players carried the ball against the San Francisco 49ers one was Aaron Rodgers the leading rusher and then Cedric Benson only 18 yards in that game was more disappointed about his two yard yard average four yards per carry they're looking to increase that significantly tonight Brad just don't ever want your quarterback being your leading rusher and Aaron Rodgers too often has had to be pulls this one out of Cedric Benson and goes to Jordy Nelson down to the 32 yard line they're going to spot it closer to the 30 for the first down now you talk about finding holes in zone defenses here's 30 Nelson he's going to get a little bump here and come over top and settle down right in the middle of the field play-action Tillman lets him go the linebacker gets sucked up and that's an easy read and an easy throw for the all-pro Aaron Rodgers a pickup of 21 to Jordy Nelson his favorite receiver a year ago Randall Cobb in there now as his DJ Williams set in the back view and here's table spinning his way inside the 30th flag is down without have a holding call in the back field but this shows how often and how many spots were going to see number 18 except maybe we won't he comes out kind of hanging his left arm Randall Cobb the second year Oh Kentucky there were 70 offense 10-yard penalty previous spot first down yeah I saw two holes in that play both the left guard Lang and the left tackle Newhouse both were holding you can see new house here and Lang here I think they both were holding lang on the inside there's the hold and look at Newhouse he's not gonna let that pers get involved either more importantly is as cobb finishes that run right here not a big guy drops his pad level if they lose him on top of losing Greg Jennings that is catastrophic it is he's trying to work it out over there on the sidelines and the trainer's trying to help him so Cobb out right now on a first down as they back it up with the penalty first and 20 Greg Jennings can only look on tonight groin injury suffered last week in the opener against the 49ers they kept out hope really up until today yesterday he didn't work out he was in uniform at practice within doing inactive tonight Rogers draw boy Cedric Benson it's inside a 42 the 39 Brian Urlacher is there to meet him familiar number 54 not the guy of five years ago but still a guy that maybe doesn't go sideline to sideline like he used to but he can fill a gap and he can make a tackle in Brad I watched every snap that he played last week on the closest tape and you know he's been in this league for 13 years now I don't know anything about his knee but at some point attrition takes over if he's nowhere near as quick as he used to be but boy is he a solid football player second and 16 is in trouble and down he goes way back by midfield Jay McClelland the rookie out of Boise State's a loss of nine a lot of criticism in Chicago after this pick now against the left tackle bang right here watch the first round pick McClellan he's a speed guy that can bend he gets underneath Newhouse and that's a one-on-one situation where he wins Aaron Rodgers can't get out and what they're doing is kicking Julius Peppers inside and giving Shane McClellan a one-on-one with the left half they've got to get all the way down to the 23 yard line for a first down and Rodgers has it paddling the air and now he'll cover it wow that was a disastrous offensive series for Green Bay started with a holding call for one of the most well defensive machines in the league a holding call bang the ball slips out of his hands he does a nice job of making sure he goes and covers it he wants Finlay ball just slides out it happens sometimes man today had a great punt the first time as you look behind him he'll try to pin this one inside the 10 Deven Hester's back there for Chicago it goes out of bounds not what he was looking for inside the 20 but that's about all you can say for it very end and his thumb and hand got kind of crumpled up in that pile he came out trying to shape it we'll keep our eye on that meanwhile here's Cutler to throw and he had it batted down and almost intercepted by Charles Woodson Clay Matthews got a hand on it this this one has not started off instantly like either Zima know for you know Kellan Davis is going to cross the face of Matthews he recognizes misdirection elevates knocks the football down and it's almost picked off and I got to tell you Brad this guy impacts the football game in so many ways he's not just the pass rusher he's praised with great leverage against the run he's one of the best four or five defensive players in the game he's back on that right side of this year with Perry the number one draft choice on the left side is Forte gotta get the girl for Chicago he got 5 out to the 22 he J Raji on the stop so a third down and shorter we've had third down and long on both sides we've promised all this offense tonight so far pretty ugly offensively Green Bay is now going in there their nickel and dime package here and there's some different people KC Hayward the rookie second round pick from Vander belts in the game no score and third down in a long for for Jay Cutler Cutlass those into the dirt and a flag down the way office boys are so if he's still throw down like Jay wanted it earlier and didn't get it he screaming the lake comes up give it to me give it to me Oh too late Garza was busy making his call center and he wasn't paying attention to his quarterback or didn't have time to the Bears with a new coordinator offensively Mike Tyson Vikings he likes to protect the quarterback much of that so far tonight and it's a different playbook at third ninth and third and four cutler weights finally goes over the middle for today's looking for a holding call DJ smith and didn't get it Chicago's got to give it up you know DJ Smith the second-year player from Appalachian State did a really good job hauling off watch them to the left ear screen he sees them running back now he gets needful his that'll hold probably but he got the hands off quickly and undercut the rallies Chicago will kick inside its own ten again return for a touchdown Bob's a guy that can do that to you but not this time fair catch at the 34 yard line also have reports with the latest news from the big Sunday matchups NFL a.m. Monday through Friday it's 6 a.m. Eastern only on NFL Network as you can see Aaron Rodgers is back out there for total series in the game 3 have been three and outs so far in 18 a gift Cedric Benson nights run this time cross the 41 yard line and Alex you were down there with Erin Rogers came over to the side line what do you have yes Brad he was immediately surrounded by doctors and trainers as he was grabbing his right elbow the Packers officially calling it a right elbow although you see him back out there he was flexing his hand quite a bit though as he ran back on to the field Graham Harrell immediately got up and started warming up and then few minutes later Aaron came over and got him out of the way and he's back in obviously I get a smile in the huddle before the last handoff to Cedric Benson they're gonna keep working him as he cuts outside across the 45 and he's got a first down so finally they got more going on the ground so far right now than they did all of last week Mike yeah and what's happening Brad is it's a too deep shell so they're running against them look at when you got those two you want to run the football so that's what they've done the last two plays against two high safeties did a real nice job inside getting pushed there was the play two plays ago where he picked up eight and then the first down so 27 yards for Cedric Betsy that's more than he had last week they fake it to him getting pressures and throw this one away he Dhananjay was in there getting some heat on the Green Bay quarterback and he had to get rid of it you know what they really do well Brad is there a veteran defense they understand their responsibilities on the Rod Marinelli that time Madonna's a recognized misdirection and Tim Jennings was playing that soft cover too got back under the deep route so it's just team defense and Rod Marinelli to me as one of those guys you better tackle he better understand your responsibilities you better play hard and fast every snap to that tree the tight end in the backfield as they fake it Rodgers and he was the intended receiver on the final try last week against the 49ers and couldn't quite hang up and that's the whole shot that they want the hole between the corner and the safety he goes where cuts inside Jennings can't the over-the-top you can't throw that football anymore beautifully would it be a difficult catch yes but that's that's the difference in the NFL between being open and not open that kind of window they're down at ten bears look like they may bring an extra man but they back out of it Rogers steps up in the pocket and goes down anyway and it's Julius Peppers who was playing on the inside with a sack really good Paul Brad six up but pepper they only brought four but peppers is inside right here on Lange so six up you're only going to big for look at the mismatch inside with pepper on Lange 101 I'm taking Julius Peppers every time especially if Rogers can't really get rid of the football on his first look Julius Peppers sack number 101 and his brilliant career that's a high hanger this time again have to let this one go and hope it gets to the end zone and it does so they'll bring it out after a 57-yard punt still no score we've got a defense attempt by Green Bay then move it down the field bears now for their own 40-yard line yards and often so far they've got a bunch more of that's gone and it's going to be interference call on DJ Smith Callen Davis the big tight end was the intended target yeah and Jay Cutler at this point slow he got the one-on-one matchup he wanted he got the interference he wanted but really what ended up giving him the time to throw this intervals 51 defense of the foul his left tackle did a great job giving him some protection there's the linebacker DJ Smith his hands he got away with one earlier they got him that time look over here 101 with Clay Matthews the third-year player from West Texas A&M look how strong he is when he gets his hands locked on it's all over 24 yard penalty moves it out to the 44 yard line Bennett in motion and assets in tight on the right side three wide receivers and collar is going to go to Barry Leigh Matthews the first one there that's what he does best yeah and they're doing a great job moving him around Dom Capers outside inside look at the strength he just runs right through the left tackle Chris Spencer they moved him the inside why well he was on the left Apple the last snap look at this oh my goodness baby I don't know you know if I'd look like him I don't think I'd ever wear sleeves either Brad no long sleeve a second and 20 try to screen pass to Forte and that's blown up another loss of two this time and that was a Jayhawk coming from this inside linebacker position who smelled that one out yeah former top ten pick he sees it right here look at hawk he reads the running back he sees the center cars that come out early he almost beat Forte to the spot that look at a great job Peet's Garza gets say aye or thought we'd see so much defense and so little offense but I'll tell you one thing Brad this is a bit third and twenty something Jay Cutler sometimes can't 20 to keep it on the ground of forte loses his balance trips up out to the 39 yard line and here comes the punting unit again playing it conservatively didn't wanna throw against and eight men drop Clay Matthews dominating that series and this has just been a field position battle here with a defensive first quarter Randall Cobb waiting on the punt like to get his hands on one that he could return so far the Bears have kept it from him with high kicks like this and they will again fair cash at the 21 yard line to 35 remaining in the full life Wednesday at 8:00 Eastern exclusively not NFL Network two great quarterbacks both struggling so far tonight's with 235 Rome 880 first quarter Aaron Rodgers from the 21 changing the play he's got two high safeties now they're rotating now a run blitz and it's gonna pay off unless Benson can pop it outside he can't no gain on the play Maya made first contact major Reich came up from the secondary to make the stop remember they put Matt to wean it down today because they were looking for their best pass rushing interior people so you're going to see a lot of Piatt and a Moby Okoye a and along with peppers I think one of the most undervalued guys in this league is Henry Melton the defensive tackle Green 18 Rogers buff fake comes back across the middle Benson first down not across the 35 to the 38th pick up of 17 you know I thought I really bought after the pump he was going through Jordy Nelson Nelson's going to get in here he's going to come off the pump right there and come back inside real nice job looking off the defenders finds the hole that's an easy first down and vintage Aaron Rodgers 319 first and ten for Green Bay with a minute half to go in the quarter Rodgers again across the middle again it's Benson if you can't get it open as a running back just throw that short stuff across the middle and let him do his thing out there in the second level and the offense Aaron Rodgers just kind of settling into a little bit of rhythm they'll think you're trying to figure out who they are Cedric Benson is new to this offense he's not used to being parallel quarterback he's used to put dot in the eye he's got to learn some new stuff late in his career here second down a two she's maybe it down you can play with a little bit they won't know keep it on the ground and he's got a first down after the midfield stripe Nick Roach made the tackle but severed Benson's get five or yeah they're using the Tom trap three their tight end as a move tight NH back and he becomes the lead blocker really in a two back scheme right there you might be down to the final play of the first quarter no score so far if you're worried in 185 meetings there's never been a scoreless tie the Bears won a couple of them back in 22 and 23 by score of three to nothing I think that's a long way then came up without one Feldman is a stretch and a good run again by Cedric Benson eight more after three state thousand yard seasons in Cincinnati he's got the wheels turning in the green and gold of Green Bay here and TJ Lang the left bar did a wonderful job there getting out to the second level and Brad if these guys are start to run the ball effectively and get some balance watch out we've played a quarter to high-powered offense is struggled early right now Green Bay's got something working Brett Favre played the most games in this place 120 starting the second quarter Green Bay with a second down and three play-action Rodgers loads and sips one down out of the hands of Jamaica Finley on that one had some Zuzu on it exactly like the throw to Jordy Nelson just a moment ago where it's a tiny window off play action here's a mismatch right here Finley on a linebacker that ball is catchable if you're an all-pro tight end you should catch that football really good effort by Briggs underneath on there cutting it but Aaron Rodgers you can't throw it any better then they actually try to pin it against his helmet what anyway was going to drop it now it's third down and three lofts one incomplete intended for James Jones Henry Melton was applying the pressure you mentioned Henry Melton and he's kind of an interesting story because he was a tailback who became a fullback at University of Texas arrived and we talked to lobby Smith last night what did you see in him to draft them in the fourth round as a defensive tackle and he said athletically that's what we want on our D line Julius Peppers that kind of guy and now he's 295 and he runs a 465 47 sacks a year ago to last week one of the best interior rushers in the NFL Packers can afford a delay again here if that's what's gonna be the call as there was some decision-making going on on whether or not they wanted to go on fourth down and three yeah you know fourth and three you're almost in that Green Bay is challenging the number of defensive players in the last player let's something you don't see very often will see if Mike McCarthy pays off right now Nick Roach is trying to get off the field like there are 12 out there right now I think they're gonna lose this Rodgers wants it he thinks he's got him on the 33 play roaches off his foots in the air and here comes the ball that is so close but I don't think you can overrule that after review the offense had 12 men OH Aaron Rodgers I thought his foot was in the air I thought he was off the field his foot in the air great job by Aaron Rodgers that's a freebie right there no doubt and he gives them a first down I mean if this turns into points we got to look back at this particular look and look at a break let it roll a little tiny bit boy easy in the air and here comes the ball that's I don't know how you overturn that one man see Aaron Rodgers and Mike McCarthy win their plea well that's you know great job by those guys I I struggle with it because the rolling on the field was they had 11 so you had to have definitive evidence otherwise they moved the sticks Green Bay with a first down at the barre 37 okay see if Green Bay quick throw on James Jones by Tim Jennings ossified again Tim Jennings had a huge game a week ago people criticize the mostly because he's five feet eight watch how aggressive he comes he reads it immediately beats the block and makes the tackle the Packers are fortunate that Jones didn't bumble this football backs it up to second down at 15 Rogers majority Nelson and of the 34 and it's going to bring up another third down situation Jordy Nelson sensational last year only two other guys in the league had more touchdown catches 1263 yards an average almost 19 a grab yeah he had sittin or two of the most underappreciated players around they're down etc I'm gonna flip it out to his girl back gets the chance from the crowd he doesn't get to the first down marker did get to the 30-yard line and this is what the Bears do as well as anybody when they sit in that too deep Urlacher runs down the middle with the tight end they forced the cheque down and Brad what they do really well as they tackle they rally up and they tackle Mason Crosby's got plenty of leg for Green Bay is career long a 58 yarder this one to Aviv from about 48 or 49 and after Auckland the other night there's been a lot of renewed interest the pallet backed up long snappers around this lake trying to get our first score of the night Green Bay first Nisan the 48-yard field goal and now we'll kick it away to Devin Hester who has five career kickoff returns for touchdowns to last year Devon's gonna get a shot at that's your a suite out to the 37 yard line yeah that was a good job bike girls be on the faculty a cuddler tonight so far Mike yeah Mike Martz mission is to protect toddler but so far early it's been all Green Bay really nice job DJ Smith the inside linebacker beats Forte discipline on the edge by Clay Matthews and then again Clay Matthews on a stunt inside lining up with a different position Matthews has been dominant and so far Cutler hasn't been able to get the football down the field Michael Busch in at tailback for Chicago he's going to get his first carry of the night the guy that had two touchdowns last week in the opening win goes out to the 44 yard line a pickup of seven Brad I think I said Mike Martz I met Mike Tyson number one this year is number one protect the quarterback number two run the football Mike Martz main goal wasn't always to keep Jay Cutler mid-match protection I'm not going there you go to the Love Boat all you want but I'm not going there what close to a first down Michael Bush got a couple you know all the talk in the offseason about Jay Cutler is centered around Brandon Marshall and justifiably so however the third part of that jet triumvirate is Jeremy Bates the quarterback coach who was together with both of them in Denver I had him down on the field an hour and a half before the game Putin you should have seen him putting Marshall and Cutler through a workout an hour and a half before game was great these two teams are old for seven combined on the third downs here so far on the first half and now we've got one out to the 49 and a first run by Bush Phillip Burling maybe this stop but the guy Michael Bush is six year out of Louisville he knows that the first down I've watched a lot of quarterbacks warm up and Peyton Manning comes out he works out those wide receivers pretty hard they run a hard route tree and it was fun watching it earlier tonight and after this snap maybe we'll get a look at it sort of Cutler and all his receivers getting a lather up about an hour and a half before the game right near midfield is Jay Cutler cut one loose here Jay Cutler play-action he's got to get the up down the field one matchup nope keep it on the ground Michael Bush picked up four more and here they are on the field under the direction again of Jeremy Bates just a little bit of warm up at Brandon Marshall slant I think he runs the slant as well as any wide receiver in football at six for 2:30 big bodied guy the entire group of wide receivers and quarterbacks were out and then they had it going now it's not going so well yet but I like the way they got after it early Marshall down to the bottom of your screen second down and six Cutler's looking that way complete 200 Bennett's and Bennett's got a first down a robot of his fourth catch of the year bringing heavy pressure off the edges they've got Bing and Bing over here a Cutler does a nice job Burnett coming one way the other safety Woodson coming under heavy pressure he stands tall delivers the football Burnett put his helmet right and Cutler's back but he still got it out for the first down at the 38 yard line offense starting to click a little bit they've done it because the ground cause this time Bush doesn't get much flags all over the place moravian davis and i a Jayhawk took a late shot and the Bears retaliated and pushed them right over the pile here's Hawk watch a plane hit right there that oughta be lawless and there comes curry me too often man that old Ward penalties second guy always gets it come on man now Kareem he's got to take care of himself first and understand that he's at risk if he retaliates so you can't exonerate him however the raps missed an easy one there that's a bad job by Hawk taking the shot and Corrine he's got to stay away from that so just when Chicago having going into Green Bay territory yeah I'm gonna back it out of there and back across midfield dude that is such a drive killer it's unbelievable you finally get a little rhythm going you've got the ball on the plus side and you allow your second year right back who's a tough kid who I like a lot but you've got to discipline yourself out here 9:34 remaining first half the only score Green Bay field goal we're back 934 actually would go anywhere you know Brad gate Karimeen just had that penalty as an interesting guy saw him at the senior ball two years ago and I said you know you're kind of a neighborhood guy would you mind if I called you a meatball on the air you know you're like and he's like and then this is an interview where we're I'm interviewing me he goes meatball are you kidding me I'm round and I'm delicious so that's cool he's a character he's a fun guy oh he's from Wisconsin more like a bratwurst they're trying to get the down marker I think changed from first to second which shouldn't be that big of an issue don't forget next week we go to Charlotte and the world champion Giants will be there Eli Manning against Cam Newton Steve Smith and company should be a great one next Thursday night from Charlotte hope you join us in a tough start for both teams they need wins desperately that will be a fun night that the defense of the Giants against am new here comes the Blitz Down Goes Cutler and guess who play Matthew's number two tonight and again when Green Bay brings five or more it forces a single on the edge and Clay Matthews against a left tackle to Marcus left there's the matchup Matthews off the Apes they're bringing five little arm over move Jamarcus Webb cannot handle his speed that's a really good job with his right hand and then the left arm over it is third down and from here to heaven they got to get to the 28-yard that's way over there in the left side of your screen not Lehrer across the middle completes it to Al Shean Jeffrey the rookie out of South Carolina only a seven yard game rookie on rookie there Casey Heyward the second round pick from baby made the tackle and cut-ins not real happy no he's not look at him I think he's letting Jamarcus Webb know that he's not happy and Karimi is the guy that stunted that drive with the personal foul and Brad we all felt Chicago was pretty confident coming into this game offense and it's waning a little bit yeah nice kick maybe too good bouncers at the war just barely made the endzone I've had a spin on it and almost stayed there 53-yard kicks lay Matthews has been all over the field as he was a week ago in a loss tonight is teaming the outside linebackers coach you knew a little bit of something about sacking quarterbacks talking to Clay Matthews who's got two tonight we've got more sacks in the game so far then we have points Green Bay from the 20 separate Vinson trying to take it outside and no gain let's check in with Alex hey Brad well as you and Mike know senator Bentsen still relatively new to this offense and trying to fit in every time in looking at pictures and then calling his tight end and his fullback over seems like he's almost trying to communicate to them the way that he likes them to block for him certainly seems to be working for him so well and so far in this game Aaron Rodgers told us that he missed a few holes last week still trying to fit into the system on the blocking scheme of Green Bay he miss he likes being deep and he likes food at fullback they fake it to him Rodgers comes back short to John the fullback that's a second catch of the night but it's good for only two yards look Chicago's playing their patented cover too too deep it's a situation where you want to run the football and they're struggling a little bit now nest he's already had ten carries last week he had nine right for 18 today at 10 for 40 but they've got to be patient stick with the run game if Chicago will not let them get the football vertically down the field now Aaron Rodgers will be in the shotgun on third down at seven the full-back there to give him some protection that burns inside attack throws on the run goes astray complete - Randall first down Green Bay I showed you peppers inside and they ate him alive watch him right in here Malaga gets a piece of him after the double team right there belaga he goes down that allows Rodgers to roll - was right Cobb sits in the hole ball is well thrown so it's a combination of pass protection and Aaron Rodgers is as good as anybody in the game and extending the play we maintain unity first down the quick throw to Julie and Nelson's out across the 48-yard line Brad I thought one of the big difference the difference is last week and watching both these defenses on film Chicago rallies up and tackles everybody Green Bay had at least eight to ten missed tackles on Frank Moore and some of the wide receivers and really that was one of the major differences and why Green Bay lost the football game left I thought in week one of most of the games I saw that none of the tackling with Andrew hackling right second down for as we approach five minutes Rogers quick drops going to swing it out senator Benson on the screen pass Lance Briggs brought him down from behind but Cedric Benson having a good first half and Tom Crabtree number 83 showing some real versatility lining up at fullback lining up at tight end he got the key block there as a nades back on Tim Jennings Aaron Rodgers has hit his last seven passes they've moved it the Packers to the Bears 46 yard line patient patient patient then they're going to go play action to try and hit something deep pretty soon DJ Williams inside end settles in on the right side as they go straight up the middle with he only got about two before they shove it backwards second year running back out of Hawaii Corey Wooten out of Northwestern beats the right tackle blog on across his face and make the play bryant block it does a bad job not sealing inside Julius Peppers getting a breather you know what I think I think he's been more productive in Chicago with less snaps because they're cognizant of his snap total and I think he's been more explosive when he plays here the packers again in the high-back field and they give to Cedric Benson and as Aaron Rodgers told us he likes it in the doc he was in the dot there and he goes down inside the for me dotting the I that is close to the 38 yard line he loves the dot and he likes that fullback in frontal bone but when you have a guy like John Coons right here three-man surface that's where you want to attack and that's where they go gets a linebacker there's the cut by Benson there that play is gold if you can attack the three-man surface with a fullback and the I back said defense and you got something going there Michael Finley will be in motion on a third down and three here's a little cross inside of 25 pounds got it down there's one we haven't seen in an accepted practice the other day exactly top in the back field through Michael Finley is going to get an easy down block allowing who log out Finley here blog out now once he's got the football Belaga makes the block you and I could run through that hole and this kid is special with the ball in his hands I don't care if it's a punt return a kickoff returner Brad like you said in the backfield finding creative ways to get him touches he's going to empty that backfield no he won't he'll come back and stay there from the 11 yard line Rogers in trouble from behind and at Julius Peppers again that little breather gave him the energy to come from the backside and down goes Aaron Rodgers one more time Marcel Newhouse has got more than he can handle here left tackle against Pat peppers one all one now bang and there goes peppers around as soon as Aaron Rodgers has to pull the ball back down this is not Marshall new houses fault he's got a chance to push him by Rodgers can't get rid of the football and the relentless hustle of peppers makes the play at sack number 102 and Julius Peppers career it seems like sack number 102 in tonight's game we've got a timeout a second down in the lake out of TCU and he's gonna struggle with peppers all day long because of peppers length now we're set to go at the 18 yard line here Michael Finley has been kind of quiet the big tight end has one catch and has one down the seen that he got his hands on it couldn't hold yeah he might be down the team also he's right here there's with a format rushed and they're going to get there and Rogers just with that and it's Henry Melton who had two sacks last week and he's got another one tonight and Brad I think he wanted to tighten down the middle and put and pull the trigger on it and again the secondary of the Bears are the ones that are forcing Rogers to pull the ball down look right there it's not there he has to pull the football down Melton makes the play and Brad we got a defensive fight that Mike and Brad is proving that punters are people no doubt about it it's been a sack filled night Green Bay about one more sack from being out of field goal range Rodgers across the middle in and out of the hands of Cobb and it's fourth down yeah I'm not sure if there was a disconnect there between Rodgers and Cobb or just a fan bro I think he might have wanted them to sit it down throws it behind them which is a typical of one of the most accurate quarterbacks I've ever seen so I don't know if he expected the second year man Cobb to sit that thing down or not Mason crimes may hit a 48-yarder for our only score of the Knights he'll try to tack three more on here from 45 yards out a state a whole that it's a fake and it's inside to the tide and our first bleep of the night Shawn slope of the special teams goes for the fakirs gallop maste the holder - Tom Crabtree touchdown out of 27 yard so cool right there and what a way to jumpstart your offense we've been talking about Crabtree all night okay there's the flip look at the blocking inside right there that is a wonderful job Don Barclay does a good job down the field the block by Evans featured Smith those two guys are backup offensive linemen that hardly ever see the light of day they made the key block on the first touchdown of the night mass days hole right up the middle with a minute a half we finally have a touchdown pass with two Pro Bowl quarterbacks on the field it's the putter which down by Green Bay makes it ten nothing a special teams touchdown Sean Slocum the special teams coach has got to be grinning over there on the sidelines that was full play venture was Devon has till this one's going to be too deep nine yards in and there's Sean Slocum the special teams coach for the Packers and somewhere in Texas and his dad RC is smiling as well you know watch here is perhaps ray he comes across my favorite part of this play is the block here and the block coming through why it's two offensive linemen Don Barclay our rookie from West Virginia Evan Dietrich Smith a third-year player from Idaho State they never in the games except for special team and the guy that scored the touchdown is a backup tight end I had loved seeing those guys step up and eats it to eight I wonder if Crabtree ever expected to be Lambeau leaping tonight and out Jamarcus Webb who's at a tough night makes it tougher trying to get a head start over that left tackle spot so he doesn't get chewed up by Clay Matthews or whoever is bringing the heats and now it's gonna make it harder on Cutler and the Bears first and 15 yeah that might be the only way he blocks play math news tonight we drop stuff yeah yeah because we've talked about the explosion of play Matthews we've talked about bringing five so he can get one-on-one Chicago two timeouts remaining that guy has not been targeted yet tonight Brandon Marshall pounds boys exude comforts across the board with a safety overtop they're playing man under JC Hayward makes the play the rookie out of Vanderbilt fashion Jennifer L Bennett trying to drag the foot but that right foot was already out he did not have possession clearly an incompletion Brad you mentioned the defensive back from baby the second-round pick really like the kid instincts and ball skills I think he's gonna be very good football player Jay Cutler in the shotgun harassed all nights this time he gets it across the middle of forte on the way and he's out across the 35 to the 36 in the first down and at this time they pick up Clay Matthews why because they run a next on inside the car does a great job of picking them up the Bears going with a hurry up here with a minute 25 or an ting in the half they have two timeouts to work with there are first time was intercepted by Morgan Burnett the safety who came over to make the play her net should have made that play Green Bay's been playing a lot of two-man to the shell and then when the wide receivers get past the corner Morgan Burnett drives on the football Cutler steps up so therefore he's late throwing the football because he had to step up through the pocket Burnett almost makes the play with me and you got to catch them about two minutes ago you said Brandon Marshall hasn't been targeted yet how come they don't at least rip one to them and see what happens I think they have to the problem with the safeties bent over top of him all day long that Larry waits Waits and comes back across the middle and it's picked off Green Bay's got it back come on Williams with the interception it might Daniels the rookie defensive tackle from Iowa get some good pressure forcing Cutler in the pocket but it's a poorly thrown pass and Brad you said it correctly he waits he waits he waits and then the ball gets undercut does he catch it and keep possession throughout it looks like it from that angle Sherman Williams falls trapped against his chest I couldn't see with the yard marker whether that he used the ground there not here the point of the football hits the ground I mean whoever as long as he keeps possession throughout the process it's a catch come on Williams that should be reviewed folks and it will be now they stop play referee is Gerald right and remember this is a challenge from upstairs and correctly so inside two minutes the middle seven remaining and a half now that last shot that we showed it looked to me like the point of the football hit the ground and they might have cradled it let's see if we can see it again hands catch point of the football hits the ground and is it loose there or does he have possession throughout with the right hand underneath that shot right there gives me doubt but is it enough to overturn I'll change the possession place reviewed this one will take a moment I'm sure Sherman Williams great play whether it's an interception or not he has had at least four interceptions the last four years and Dom Capers remember told us yesterday that he thought in the Superbowl year two years ago that the second half of the season Sherman Williams is as good a cornerback as anybody around don't forget Sunday morning you can wake up with first on the field for live reports from game sights and analysis from our expert team including LaDainian Tomlinson and you can catch the game day morning at 9:00 for all the latest news analysis injury reports and more first on the field and then game day morning all starts Sunday you got to get up early for this 7:00 a.m. Eastern only on NFL Network that guy hasn't caught a pass because they haven't thrown one to him yet and again Brad there's been a safety sitting over top of him all day long and Green Bay whose DNA has been rushed five rush six a lot of man to man last week against San Francisco a lot of exotic blitzes this week more conservative especially on the back end playing a lot of cover to man underneath Jay Cutler nose dive capers where we just talked about defensive coordinator for the Packers or the more respected defensive Minds in the National Football League without a doubt so again the play under review on whether or not Ramon Williams picked that pass off or not if so it gives Green Bay a golden opportunity they still got three timeouts that they could work with here's one more look the fans here get to see that too because the Jumbotrons and the replay systems around the NFL this year show you what show them what you see at home and what we see up here in the booth Ernie France is our replay official by the way tonight near Lambeau Field I think that's a very very difficult ball I mean that's shot right there played and slow motion makes it look like the footballs loose there when you play it at full speed which is the way we're officiating this thing it's completely different this is what the fans are seeing this is what Sherman Williams and his teammates sitting over there on the bench are seeing and that one obviously from a long shot and this review is taking awhile you know we talked about Marshall no catch isn't more importantly no targets and you know one of the reasons is been there the rush has gotten to the quarterback after review they're ruling on the field stands I didn't think there was enough to tone that I think that's the right call now you've got three timeouts you've got the National Football League's MVP at quarterback for Green Bay they are thinking points here before have to trust me Aaron Rodgers is making seven points not three points with those timeouts and with the momentum gained from a fake field goal touchdown and a turnover generated by your defense at the 48 of the Bears Rogers Nelson who cuts back to the 41 yard line pickup of eight and they're gonna take one of the timeouts right here yeah he was frustrated he he was trying to get in that timeout a couple seconds earlier still 56 seconds to work with and it'll be second down in about three not too late to sign up and play nfl.com fantasy football sign up today for the official fantasy game of the NFL at nfl.com slash fantasy now this is reality and the reality is a Bears haven't scored at all and now they're looking at Green Bay trying to score again before the break that would be a big hole to try to climb out of especially if the Packers get a touchdown here and I get Green Bay and Mike McCarthy credit here in a low-scoring game they go for the fake field goal score a touchdown off of it and they're gonna really frustrate Chicago if they get any more points in the board here second down and along to the quick throw complete to Finley but he's hit immediately getting right about at the line of scrimmage Tim Jennings again a nice open field tackle a lot bigger than he is Tim Jennings on again I don't care that he's 5/8 he sticks his head in there all the time his creative he stuff has vision on the quarterback this time they're single high man the man and they run did he get it Brian Urlacher made the tackle it's right about at the line they had to get to that was Coons first carry of the year he had a couple of receptions in this half and it's a personality if people don't talk enough about food as a past protector for Aaron Rodgers I think he's one of the premier running back technicians in the game as far as protecting his quarterback so Box Tops again 31 seconds remaining in the half you talk about a golden opportunity partner first the special teams touchdown and then the interception the Jay Cutler through with Jay Cutler you talked about in the open he hasn't played well at Lambeau Field he's not playing well tonight either he's not getting a lot of help from a protection standpoint let's face it there's been seven or eight sacks in this game already with both teams Cutler's had nobody to throw the football to no protection but when he gets frustrated his win he tends to force the football and that last throw was not accurate it was a bad decision he's been frustrated with a lot of things including his left tackle tonight he let Jamarcus Webb have it a few times so he's a guy that hopes to have a much better second half obviously he's standing over there he can only watch now to see if the bear defense can hold Green Bay scoreless here in the last half minute this was a little bit earlier in this quarter coming off the field and that's his left tackle and watch this not only a mouthful of little shoulder bump there on the way by not a happy guy right now now his left tackles got whipped one on one by one of the premier past Russians in the game and in the second half you talk about adjustments and what do you have to do well you've got to recognize that when clay Matthews is singled up you've got a problem over there you've got a chipper you got to bring it tight and you've got to do something so that Clay Matthews can't single-handedly beat you Green Bay has got a versed in ten a first down will put them at the 28 yard line they have to the officials are looking at something now is take a look profits problem you've got a first down yeah and in Urlacher made a heck of a hit right there it looks like the ball on the right hand would be a right arm spot would be a first down Urlacher had a hundred and thirty-five tackles and three interceptions a year ago awful lot of conversation in Chicago about where he is with that knee he's still a great leader they're trying to manage that knee they practice them every other day got a bear down on the far side of the field miss Charles Tillman who until yesterday was questionable and I think it's just a shoe problem he's had a hidden problem they thought was going to keep him out of this game but apparently he's alright and they're still looking at that last play there's crap tree on the fake field goal and again it's Evan Dietrich Smith and Don Barclay with the key blocks to Lyman that hardly ever play here comes Barclay there's the block out front the cut by Crabtree and the third New Flyer Crabtree's a third-year player from Miami of Ohio and he's got the biggest play of the night well as all of you know I think we have replacement officials here at the start of the NFL season I quite frankly think there's been a few times that some of the stuff was pretty easy that's first down that was a first down three minutes ago right no doubt but they got it right that's the best part so at the 38 yard line Aaron Rodgers has one timeout to work with they'd like to get it down and get at least Mason Crosby an opportunity for three here before the break but they'd still like to take a crack that try to get seven Rogers pressure on the inside across the middle and flags fly line up a holding call on the second air I don't know who was intended for maybe Jordy Nelson I think he was the closest guy Randall Cobb yeah there - I think it was Cobb there there was a collision down the field on the tight end there Michael one defense major right is number 21 but this is DJ weren't right here on the tight end that's what I thought I said I saw some contact on Finley so now they moved it down to the 33 yard line so they're in Mason Crosby range already and now they got a first down with 26 seconds to go and a half yeah it's still a 51-yard field goal and you still want to eat up some yards here and if you know Aaron Rodgers even with the to high shell he's going to get itchy and try and take a shot let's see if it's here Rodgers up first out fires Briggs he had at his hands twice and couldn't hold it boy he did a great job rolling into that route he's right here he's going to roll into the route and the ball gets put on him he walls off the outside guy reads the quarterback eyes on the quarterback he gets hit between the 5 and the 5 he does everything right except catch the football Wow and that means points on the board Brad right absolutely that's huge right there it did take 5 seconds 21 seconds remaining on 2nd at San Rogers screen pass to cool the full-back cool inside the 20 headed out of the 17 yard line clock running 10 seconds they might just wait this out in T on three really dude really didn't have enough time to try to regroup and take one more shot I don't think they had enough time to gather the troops down there I agree I would I think he initially was thinking can I run them down there and Spike it yep and grab another plate but remember one time out left he needed to guarantee the three points and again Lance breaks you got to hold on to that interception game Karimi you can't hit the guy and get it unnecessary roughness penalty and take your own team out that Bears have kind of self imploded here the big special teams play so Mason Crosby is hit from 48 then he lined up for what we thought was going to be another field goal try from 45 and end up being a touchdown and now he'll try one from 35 yards up I'll tell you one thing Tom Crabtree will not get the snap-in score a touchdown here I don't think so again the guy that's got the touchdown toss right there that's the guy that caught it a Tim mast a the holder will put this one down at the 25-yard line barukh mentally Mason Crosby with a final play and a half and 35 and good so Greenbay takes advantage of truman williams interception of jay cutler and on the last play of the half they add three to their total they head to the locker room at the end of the first half Packers 13 bears nothing stick around rich of the guys with Alexis halftime show from Lambeau Field is next presented by Delta Faucet the high-powered Bears offense that we talked about all week after their win in their opener 47 total yards and seven yards passing that'll frustrate any quarterback in any head coach welcome back everybody Brad nestled with mike Mayock we talked about these guys having all the tools the tools aren't working right now and I really believe the Bears are self-employed in here and they had some opportunities and they kicked them away early in the game the only time they went on the +50 Gabe Karimi retaliated on an - a Jayhawk thumb penalty pushing them over the pile that took them out of field goal range down three nothing great call by Sean Slocum in the Packers the fake field goal touchdown by Tommy Crabtree ten nothing and then you've got an opportunity to take points off the board plants break-ins drops easy interception at the end of the first half they kick a field goal Brad it's 13 nothing remember the Bears at 12 men on the field on a third and three that gave the Packers their first score on Crosby's field goal then the fake field goal for the touchdown then the interception and the field goal to end the half 13 nothing as the Packers will kick it away to Devin Hester the back of the endzone Bears will bring it out on the touch back to the 20 as we check in with Alex hey Brad will it's no surprise that levy Smith told me after half that their top priority and the second half will be protecting Jay Cutler really saying that they will try anything they can to protect it whether it's using a tight end whether it's using the running game whether it's chipping anything to do it because they are not able to do what they want to do on the outside because they can't protect color colors sacked throw time in the first half at the same number of completions that he had in the first half that's amazing ended last week for 28 tonight 47 in total yards they've got that many total yards and they've not thrown a pass to Brandon Marshall so far and that in itself is a bit of a surprise I know schematically that dream Bay is doing a good job but at some point I just can't believe they don't aim one in his direction well let's just underscore what Alex had the conversation with Lovie Smith about and protecting your quarterback they're a lot of ways to do it you can run the football but when you're down at halftime 30 nothing you have to throw it if you can't protect your quarterback Brad you can't get the football down the field to that new talented wide receiver much DJ Smith and a Jayhawk in on the stop has good job by Walton and settings setting the edge there on defense who was just activated this week off a suspension and again another it's third and six I guess that's pretty good because they've been averaging the third and what about third to sixteen or seventeen uh thirteen sixteen point three so far third down and five here here's a guy but there's the safety Morgan Burnett cutler in trouble again across the middle of port a on the run nicely done out to the 41 yard line a pickup of 15 you know Cutler did a nice job there because he wanted your guy he wanted Brandon Marshall badly but watched Cutler was movement in the pocket and coming to his secondary who's going to be fourth day slides up eyes down the field locates Forte there was still heavy pressure but that play was about Jay Cutler sliding eyes downfield and making a play that might be the best offensive play of the night for Chicago Forte a yard baby play Matthews on that's it Brandon Marshall only great years with Jay Cutler in Denver but tonight on the hook-up nothing there and the whole first half Brad safety over top everywhere they lined up come on Williams anuman man safety over top when they moved him inside it was Woodson with the safety over top once again and I think he's getting frustrated I think they both are second down to nine cutler in the shotgun woodson thinking about blitzing he will Cutler going deep down the middle for his tight end and all dropped by Geron McMillan the rookie boy McMillan had a chance to make a play huh now here's a situation that's your guy and they bring the safety over here you had a chance to make a play on top of the screen they had them one-on-one up top if you're gonna throw it give it to him don't throw it down to the middle of the double coverage sir ah McLeod's McMillan the safety from being the rookie fourth round pick had a chance to make a play but Pratt you're asking me why can't they get it home and there it was that was a bad read by Cutler on a late rotation by the Packers now he's trying to get Marshall in tighter on the right side and and they take a timeout apparently so a frustrated Chicago Bears quarterback right now with 12 2000 Manning third coalfield 13 nothing Green Bay when you and I and Alex talked to Jay Cutler earlier this week I don't think I've ever heard a quarterback more confident that what he thought was going to happen was going to go right tonight so far not and you could see the frustration clearly etched on his face during that timeout play Matthews right in the middle thinking about coming from there and he will Cutler look out he got rid of it nice swirl to Forte in the first down and it could block by right guard Lance Louis to keep the out more mentions Matthew's off of him but you're exactly right about Cutler and what we were talking about here comes clay Matthews right over the right guard good job by Louis keeping his feet moving and pushing him past the quarterback you know we talked to Jay and and I felt like he was as confident and comfortable both personally and professionally as I've ever seen him run and felt lucky they had the weapons finally the challenge Green Bay he's under center here after picking up 14 yards Monica play-action wants to go deep fires to the near sideline and throws it away yeah there's some disconnects yeah I think they've got they got a run sprint a couple screens they got to do some things to slow down this rush DJ Smith came around the edge there Sherman Williams is undercutting Brandon Marshall all day long I think Dom Capers has done a wonderful wonderful job game planning tonight the Bears tonight have run only three plays in Packer territory they're there right now at the 45 they haven't even gotten past the 37 so far there it is it looks like a single but here comes the safety over top they're going to keep it on the ground a push and Michael Bush backs his way close to a first down Burnett brings him down a yard shy and that's what capers is trying to do to Cutler you can see pre-snap capers had man-to-man looked like a shot for Mike diced to take but then the safety sneaks over late and it's too old one every seven Stan might get a little bit more of Michael Bush here third down in the yard yeah this is where Chicago just needs to be patient get another first down and keep grindin Busch is about 220 pounds got the full-back flank there with her gonna take a shot right here swing it back to the full back of the titania writer and as bait exactly remember their best receiving tight end is down today and what happens here is faith comes across the line of scrimmage it's just enough for a first down working on Matt Forte over there on the Bears sideline nice to have a guy like Michael Bush to come in if there's an injury situation or in this case right they might just want to use it and Kyle Adams is not activated tonight because of a shoulder is probably their best receiving tight end tenth play of and like a bush went down to Annie got back up and got to the 25-yard line picked up eight college football he's down right yeah that's not a problem I thought Rodriguez the rookie from temple did a nice job there on the block they drafted Rodriguez as a tight end he's become their h-back fullback and done a nice job despite all the problems Chicago said they only trail by 13 and this is their deepest penetration of the night yeah the green back here ago exactly they get to get some point forward we got a football game Bush is full backs in Franklin but he never got to that level thanks to a Jayhawk who made the play not necessary the tackle but he's the one that forced it and jerel worthy made the stop yeah you're 100% right ball came untouched scraping downhill from the outside Matthews gets it jack gets in here all over the top there it is untouched where he gets down the Bears have had 5:39 and one as they work on that oh man I gotta for and they convert a 4/3 down on this Drive at the nine men weights now goes D depends on dropped it Marshall had in his hands would have been a touchdown they've been waiting all night and they get what they want he's the point man on a site punch here he is right here he's coming in and back out the safety kicked it over the top one oh one throw you can't put it out there any better is it a tough catch yes but Brandon Marshall can make this catch every day got to make that catch look at it I can't walk out there and put it any better I can't hand it full many cleaner I have to try to settle for a rowdy gold 45-yard field goal any kind of points would help the Bears is good close to a touchdown they settle for a field goal pairs finally on the board with 849 remaining third quarter they did get a 53-yard drive though in 13 plays to finally get on the board with Gold's field goal and out of kicked Randall Cobb take a knee and green Bale come out offensively at the 20-yard line again what could have aided 13 7 was that close mr. only on NFL Network a week from tonight will be in Charlotte North Carolina a world champion Giants will take on Cam Newton they had a Carolina Panthers that's a week from tonight this is the first of our 13 Thursday night games on NFL Network and it's a low-scoring affair at Lambeau Field Cedric Benson on the throw back from Aaron Rock lose yardage major right brought him down he got five Chicago is so much discipline defensively heavy play fake one way come all the way back to Benson and major right was just sitting there waiting for him but but Benson Benson actually beat him to the edge and picked up about five Matt Forte is heading to the locker room and we're working out his ankle doesn't look like he's limping that much but we'll try to get a report from Alex you know second and five on the field AJ Williams the tight end in motion as they keep it on the ground of Benson straight up the gut and if all came out at the end but it was blown dead at the 29 yard line Henry Melton the defensive tackle with another athletic play he got cut by Crabtree and actually got up and made the tackle much crap see right here get the Block on Melton Melton gets up makes the tackle but he's down definitely done yeah we don't need to review that so third down at one and we might see Cedric Benson get it again Coons in the game along with Crabtree so they've got their bigger personnel in a game that they're hybrids making like PJs Williams been here since I backfield offense and Lex behind this whole back play stretching it out and it's Urlacher he can still get it done Brian Urlacher it is 13th year just kept spreading that out and finally Benson had nowhere to run Briggs and Urlacher and here's the point of attack clock right here good job setting the age allowing both linebackers to come down hill Urlacher ran right through and the ball carrier Benson he Jack Kuhn into Benson that's a heck of a play fourth down they got a fine he's still the face of the Bears defense much like Dick Butkus and Mike Singletary before him nice kick Oh testers got a shot though from the 18 and he's cool the special teams as you hear the crowd reacts how could you not love that dude you kidding me great punt coverage by the full-back knocking down one of the most dangerous returned man in the history of the game nice play nine remaining in the third quarter last game without a catch 2006 they aimed the last one in toward him he's at the top of the screen that Mike circle it's Michael boys it might be Michael Bush the rest of the night because of Matt Forte as we take a look at what we think was the injury charles woodson bringing him down and watch Woodsen's knee roll up on the back of Forte's ankle i think alex has got more for us yeah Brad they rewrapped his ankle put some protective padding on it we're hopeful during that process that he'd be able to go back into the game but when he stood up and tried to move he couldn't cut on the ankle at all and that's when they took him to the locker room Matt Forte now he hasn't returned to this game Michael Bush on second and five up the middle he's very close to a first down in fact he might have it nope yeah Bush excuse me forte missed the last four games a year ago Brad and we all know he's one of the best football players in the league however has a tendency to get injured a little bit died at 255 touches and only played 12 games and he headed three yards shy of a thousand yards rushing one up one of the most versatile have nothing those versatile backs in the league huge play here third down less than one we're good Bush has got it and plenty more yep doing a really good job pushing the file now Rodriguez net rookie from temples doing a good job on the backer they call that a bob black but block a back on the backers of Bob block we're approaching five minutes in the third quarter hard-fought bloody nose Tampa game and you know what I like I like the Bears haven't panicked you know they were down 13 up and they moved the ball down the field points on the board stop Green Bay now they're back in it frustrated yes panic no push boxes outside at the ball in the wrong hands that he held on as a Jayhawk finally brings him down after a gain of seven and they got a little something going with Bush in the inside run game right now give Phil Emory the general manager a lot of credit for signing him in the offseason lovie smith said it was almost like recruiting back in college to get him to be a bear there was other people that wanted his services he left Chicago went to Cincinnati lovey kept ball him we love you we love him and here he is the Bell Cal this evening four straight rushes for him he'll get a breather oh no Allen now to know today heeey almost lost his head Rossi's working on the right guard Lance Lewis and Raji a former first-round pick out of Boston College one of the more physically gifted big men in the game hard inside move off the debt guard beats the center Garza and almost takes the head off Armando Allen Raji member Pratt there's no horse collar by running back into tackle box Raji made the Pro Bowl last year the first defensive tackle for Green Bay to do so since Bob Brown and 1972 real 3600 lags down well start 87 offense five-yard guillotine still third down Callen Davis still third down but now third down in a bunch how come you're tight in you then he's asking himself that right now in third and six versus third and 11 again I keep talking about how this team is imploding the fourth time that the Bears have at third and ten or longer backers have their dime package in the game I'm 13 11 in trouble again try to find somebody open and it's Charles Woodsen's fifty-fifth of his career I'm going to tell you something right now I give Woodson a ton of credit but biromantic has got the 55th career interception here's another look yeah and again these guys are college teammates Cutler and Bennett Bennett's a fifth year receiver he's got to know better than this right in the middle of the field look at him here and here's what's in plenty of room but you have got to come back to the football you can't wait for look up he's going one yard the other way and then after that then it gets cleese gives me Cutler gets cleaned up by Walden and that's not one Cutler and a guy that's always been around the football number 21 and don't you think 15 years right now and play in safety instead of corner that when he's done five years later he'll have a bust in Canton to go along with his Heisman Trophy yeah you and I are going to go in the Hall of Fame game the next night congratulating him when they go on his career I mean he's a special player and he's always had a knack for creating takeaways but that throw is not on Cutler those 26 interceptions you saw were since 2008 now he's lost a step and I've watched a bunch of his tape but he still has a knack for stripping the football and creating interceptions also look at those numbers I like this one 8 Pro Bowls 55 mean when you look at those kind of numbers it just screams Hall of Fame we talked in with a cafeteria yesterday after Packers practice big smile on his face then couldn't wait to get this Thursday night game going at Lambeau Field where Green Bay wanted to get the taste of their opening game opening season loss to San Francisco out of their mouths and so far they're on their way tonight's aerial coverage presented by Southwest Airlines after review after the interceptions green bass player was down by contact at the 47 yard line first and 10 reset the clock to 311 the ball will be on the 47 yard line alright they had the wrong 47 yard line so that's what the review was about to get it straightened outs and again the crowd a little bit frustrated by the time it took to get that and Urlacher and Rogers as saying you know what the offseason let's go golfing but meantime didn't we know where that one should have been spotted aerial coverage presented by Southwest Airlines as you look in on Lambeau Field and a first and ten for the Packers who lead 13 to 3 at their 47 man brandon marshall drops a pass in the end zone for a touchdown bennett doesn't come back to the ball Woodson picks it off I mean as good as Chicago look for three and a half orders a week ago they're really struggling tonight came in with all the confidence and swagger in the world but right now it's not doing them any good perhaps who the guy that caught the touchdown pass on the fake Google in the backfield Jordy Nelson and it's a first down pick up a 15 really good play-action fake by Rodgers as the back comes across watch the linebackers get frozen they see the fake they feel the fake now you're going to get right in behind them bang nice throw that's like stealing for a veteran like Aaron Rodgers really good play fake we spotted at the 38-yard line with a first down now to 240 you notice green baize in the huddle now Brad W Tom exactly no reason to hurry up got a 10-point lead I will milk it a little bit contact Cedric Benson sit out for another first down road hit in the backfield looked like it was gonna be a loss Mike and second effort and some fancy footwork for Cedric Benson yeah I think it was Corey Wooten but I'm not sure Crabtree has the block on him and watch I like the hesitation here he's going to get hit hesitates gets back up in the hole and forces Chris Conte to make the tackle then soon his eighth year out of Texas 60 yards tonight areas again way inside the 25 in the 24 help them up as offensive lineman NFL game rewinds free trial you get access to coaches filming full replays of every week to game on-demand and HD try it for free at nfl.com slash game rewind wait a minute how are people getting coaches phone with game rewind I fought to get that for like 10 years and now it's out there it's up there man hitting me free trial just for you they've been kidding me that's pretty cool Green Bay second and six they faked the draw Rodgers loads and goes to the end James Jones couldn't hold it it's a little bit hot but they took a shot I loved everything Aaron Rodgers just did why cuz a the play fake B he held the safety on the inside route and then C he comes down to Jones at the end of it I mean he did everything right and Jones has got to catch the football got his body contorted a little bit in the wrong direction or he probably would have made the catch now at certain six in field goal range the Packers definiely dropped the ball Bears have got it Tilman with a fumble recovery I think that's a catch I mean this is a little pivot route by the walk by the tight end Finley he's longer there was a punch by Tillman watch Dillman's right fist punch the football watch the right fist bang that's on purpose that's beautiful a veteran quarter forcing a turnover in a big play and to me there's no doubt that's a reception not only a forced fumble but the fumble recovery as well great play by number 33 Wow and Chicago's got new life that's a pretty cool play there mr. Tillman gavin and ash injury and didn't really practice until yesterday he just came up with a defensive gym for the bears yeah it's hard to figure and all turnovers are being reviewed in the booth this year in the NFL but it's it's hard to figure in the old days they just kind of taught you to make tackles in the open right now everything is about stripping and punching and ripping and to be able to do that one on one with no help is really an art the Bears now have told us officially the Matt Forte is done for the night Alex actually pretty much blew it off for us the last time they had the ball but that'll mean that the push is going to have to care if it's on the grand fortune it is right here almost four yards and we're less than a minute remaining in the third quarter and Morgan Burnett the safety did a nice job inserting himself as the eighth man in the box late made the tackle for about a four yard gain like you talked about Jay Cutler at Lambeau Field this his third game and the struggle continues yeah to be quite honest he hasn't had a whole lot of help between the pressure and the drops that's true second at six-year man flushes out as a wide receiver so it's an empty back and it tips tried to get it to his tight in Vijay Raji I thinks the guy that got a paw on the way yeah they brought two guys whip through the same gap and Raji's had a really good football game Raj is here and you're going to see DJ Smith come here and obviously the tackles got to be concerned out wide so nice job from a scheme perspective bringing to through the same hole and Raj he's so darn powerful and 337 listed that's good for breakfast third and six and Alla fans at Lambeau come to life on what might be cutler over the middle ones dropped as well by Devin Hester Brad if I was doing a cut-up on this game in other words put together key plays it would be all about the Bears implosion I mean they just have not helped themselves on either side of the football tonight by bacon dump plays that guy's still without a catch and his quarterback has been knocked around and frustrated all night long nice kick Randall Cobb fields it at the 27 got across the 40 before he's run out of outs so good field position after the punt return by Cobb of 15 yards and that brings quarter number three to a close still a 10-point game at Lambeau Packers in front of the Bears two games behind Chicago and it's almost like a three-game swing because they've already lost to the 49ers in the conference I don't want to lose through division foe correct you find yourself in a hole right now they're 15 minutes away from having that be just a nasty memory hackers again tonight playing without their top wide receiver in Greg Jennings or at least one of their top receivers I should say Jordy Nelson is their top receiver as far as number of catches in yards last year this Drake a groin injury kept him out of the game so they have they've been able to do without him so far and now they'll have a long break if they get this win that's what people like about Thursday night games if you win them they're great you get it long break before the next game it's like an extra five weekend piglia Rodgers comes up throwing Williams and Williams first down at the 45 you know I'm Brad I give Tom Clements and Mike McCarthy at Sonic's credit for makin Cedric Benson comfortable tonight after 9 for 18 right now he's over a hundred total yards in the run game he's got 16 carries for 70 in the past game for 4:35 so the guys had 20 touches for 105 yards and again he's got in the I where he's most comfortable they fake it to them and Rogers throws a dart that's caught by drew michael finley a diving catch by the Titanic in front of Tim Jenny's and that's a good probe's you've got an inside leverage corner so people wonder why you make them die for it to the outside it's because you don't want Tim Jennings sneaking in and picking it and going the other way good morrow sir michael finley who's been a thorn in the bear's side lovie smith told us last night we got to keep him quiet he likes to yak out there on the field he's put up big numbers last year ten of his catches against the Bears for more touchdowns yeah he's a mismatch in motion right now on a safety it's time to go to James Jones right now for Aaron Rodgers it's pitch and catching you have the clock oh yeah and a lot of their short game right now and he'll he'll go short short short he'll go run game but the minute he sees single high safety an opportunity to get deep he will you know their their offensive coordinator Tom Clements remember him as a Notre Dame player played 12 years in the CFL was elevated when Philbin took the job in Miami I think his very quietly doing a great job tonight they gave it to Kuhn the full-back he didn't get it a little Thompson in Green Bay on third and one tonight there only one out of four bricks and Urlacher and the gang stop short of the first down yeah Briggs got some space because the space eaters up front did their job these guys push the pocket and allow breaks in made the hit behind the line of scrimmage short yardage and goal line is all about interior penetration and that's what happened there this is gonna be a long field goal attempt by Mason Crosby about 54 yards he's hit a few of those a lot of those in fact in his career he's two for three over 50 year ago on the way and it's Crosby it's three more from 54 might that be enough the way Chicago struggling on offense still a two-possession football game but the Bears desperately need some offense now is commencement a frustrating night mate between he and Jay coming yeah come on Williams and a trail technique Burnett over top there's been a safety over top again heating trail because he's got Burnett coming over the top and the one time they get a safety in the middle of the field come on Williams ball safety can't get over top and he drops the touchdown catch you know they were so excited to be reunited last week 9 catches 119 yards and a touchdown in Denver the stretch they had their only Peyton Manning to Reggie Wayne put up bigger numbers than those two guys together tonight it hasn't worked this a live ball here at the 7-yard line devin hester cuts back to the near side looking for the sideline didn't have enough room to work so thirteen points down with 1137 indigo next thursday night should be fun in charlotte Eli Manning and the super bowl champion Giants traveling to Charlotte they'll take on the Rookie of the Year last year Cam Newton in the Carolina Panthers Giants Panthers from Charlotte next Thursday night 8 Eastern wholly on that level you know that's Victor Cruz a couple drops in that big game against Dallas yeah I'll manage just to see whether he comes back out of that with a vengeance or people are saying how he did too much in the offseason too many commercials too many endorsements need to see him come back and have a big game next week that was missed his legs five passes he's gonna have to pass now at the given time he lets wide deep for Marshall tips intercepting but Ramon Williams his second of the night and Williams on abounds deep in bear territory really poor throw here and I like the concept of what they were trying to do down here he's going to take the safety inside and then break back outside deep now breakout he got the safety turned around the corner was still under him and Cutler didn't get enough air and he didn't get it far enough outside and like most of the night after he lets go he's going to take a shot from a Jayhawk Sherman Williams and Brad you said earlier in the night that their Superbowl year he was one of the best corners in all of football he was where did he disappear to a year ago he had a pinched nerve he struggled through it did not play as well but they're hoping they get the term on Williams of 2010 back this year looks like they have him so far Aaron Rodgers pump bakes going for the kill shot then it's donal dry and he's gonna drive writing the Lambeau leap crowd that is so beautiful by Aaron Rodgers I can't even tell you from and the eyes discipline perspective you want to talk about looking off of safety with your eyes and your shoulders okay here's the safety he wants to be everything he does says I'm coming left shoulders now back safeties already opened his hips that way you come back to the middle of the field that's all about Aaron Rodgers the last time Donald Driver he only had three plays last week the last time he was in the spotlight was Dancing with the Stars now he's dancing with the fans in the end zone touchdown Green Bay Crosby's point after that might have been the kill shot of the night 23 to 3 you love to see a guy that's been around this long still have touchdown catch of Donnell drivers career he's number one in receptions in yardage in Green Bay Packer history just added his 60th touchdown it took two big plays to turn this into a 20-point game hike and the first one is cutler under throwing the double coverage to Brandon Marshall interception bite Salman Williams now if you know Aaron Rodgers you know there's a pretty good shot that he's going to try and beat on the next snap which he does fakes at the Jordy Nelson all the way in the corner of the end zone find Donald Driver right down the seam and Aaron Rodgers that was beautiful that was a veteran quarterback manipulating a safety for the 54 Green Bay penalties 15 yards from the 20-yard line Desmond Moses a rookie linebacker with the penalty that gives Chicago some decent field position yep undrafted free agent out of Tulane Donald Driver is going to take a look at the play there he is fight it gets a little frustrating fighting through a double-team and at the end of it he sounds gonna tack on you haven't agreeing the outside linebacker coach coaching him up on the sideline after that play Jay Cutler has got to throw it now may not get a chance buys himself some time and slides for a first down that's fine eleven minutes left in this football game don't panic you throwing other intercepts in this thing to be over there's a little John going on down there right now want a surprise up night for Jay you know we showed his numbers at Lambeau at the top of the show and two previous appearances and unfortunately for the Bears the trend continues bush a couple yards time is of the essence now for Chicago yeah I think you want to hurry up a little bit obviously you could still run the football at 11 minutes left but you got a hurry here with the score down 20 folks you can't be sitting here you got it you got to get over the ball and call someplace let's go Martha's at the point of a tight bunch we haven't heard from all sound Jeffrey I don't believe all night long that one catch he just went motion is set up on the right hand side pressure coming again pass complete to Bennet ho at the end of it whatsit and Kotler Cutler Woodson came at kotler's feet at the end Cutler's didn't like it and kind of kicked them a little bit there comes Woodson watch late on his knees quarterbacks hate that he pushes him with his left foot Woodson doesn't like that now you got to all pros having a conversation and it's not about Hawaii not about the Pro Bowl it is not about the throw Pole and that guy's been to a bunch of them he's still syrup and pill in Packer territory at the poori Cutler in trouble again fires deep middle and someone may have gotten a hand on that or similarly hit cut Cutler as he let go of it he didn't have much on it yeah there was a little contact down the field to which wasn't called and justifiably so Cutler's trying to make that throw flat-footed and I think there was a P a Jayhawk got a little piece of it by the way they told us earlier this week if we see what we think we're going to see from the Green Bay defense nobody can contain us on the outside well they didn't get what they thought they got two high safeties they weren't able to run the ball and they're gonna nifty sidestep and almost threw another interception though DJ Smith a diving attempt there on a pass intended to Kellan Davis they'll give Jay credit for hopping around in that pocket and not getting sacked you know what Cutler's got great feet and I give him credit for making people mess but you're gonna see out Shawn Jeffery all by himself now there's the miss great job now keep your eyes open because look what happens you look down the field the safeties up here there's nobody in the end zone that's a quick six if he could just keep his eyes down all the way down the field but Fred that's pretty athletic right he's a little busy right there trying to get by everybody it was a holding call on Chicago so it backs the line of scrimmage to the field second down at 20 get Greenbay dials up a little pressure on this side nope mutlar again the pocket collapsing and again he goes down Mike rookie out of Iowa fourth sack of the night and again it's getting chippy at the end of every play now yeah Woodson Carl Bennett you know we really thought they kind of took care of his protection issues but hit 11-time hurried 18:7 knockdowns and four sacks that's a little bit like last year when I thought he had the worst pass protection to the lake prior to getting hurt they gave up 49 sacks last year and now J hops through the traffic and throws downfield and it's almost intercepted by whitson off the tip from Davis Davis was slipping down there too almost made the catch on the ground and again some of the best moves of the night for Jay Cutler just to get out of the traffic pocket and Brad that was a three man rush and kelan Davis should have caught the ball but his feet slipped out from under him you know so the Bears have had some opportunities they just have I've said five time tonight they didn't blow fair catch by Randall Cobb near the 15-yard line and penalty marker down at the end of that way Cedric Benson has had a good night it's been tougher for Jay Cutler especially with three interceptions and he has a seat over on the sidelines there was a flag on the end of the play and as we said almost every play now has ended with one player another shoving somebody else Rodgers gave you the call there don't even need the replacement officials in this position we will let Gerald right tell us though Gerald's got your phone I trust Aaron I mean he's a football guy here's a call there's a foul face mask on the kicking team 15-yard penalty from spot first down so they'll walk up 15 and we'll take a quick break here with 8:14 remaining the Bears have and with that last touchdown pass for Aaron Rodgers he's joining great company Johnny Unitas and Dan Marino as consecutive home games with the touchdown passes reached 31 second half tonight Aaron is 7 out of 8 and he's hit his last five Chicago's got to be aggressive now defensively play-action Rodgers fire and it's Tim Jennings Jennings ooh and a couple last week has got another one tonight boy did he do a great job reading this route and he fooled Aaron Rodgers with almost always never happens I think I think Rodgers rolling Jones to come back inside now he's good why he's gonna hang outside watch him he doesn't follow him in and now he jumps the route did you see what Jones did yep he did not come back to the football and that's why Aaron Rodgers Brodie trusted his receiver and he's upset justifiably come back though he broke the route he can't break the round at that jump and only six interceptions all of last year's got a couple already through two games Tim Jennings is given I guess a little bit of hope to Chicago they can take advantage still eight minutes to go that's his third interception in two games and I think the kids been feisty and I think he's playing really well cutler again in the pocket down he goes again Flay Matthews has got his third of the night here comes the muscle maybe not nope just another routine play hit - you know it this is all about covers the safeties over the top because he would sin driving and then the other way this is where Cutler wanted to go was to Hester to the left of the screen it wasn't there and because Clay Matthews is so relentless partner two and a half sacks a week ago three tonight five and a half and two games he only had six all allowed to air last year that he has switched to that right side again he looks pretty comfortable there you'll be coming again throws complete and finally Brandon Marshall has a catch and that that's what it's supposed to look like and by the way it's pretty good coverage by Woodson what's in trying to undercut it good concentration think he dragged that left foot was a pickup of ten but remember because of the sack it's still third down and long right I would think two down territory if you're the Bears got to be with seven minutes and change empty backfield in the gun here they come and under the gun lobs it to the corner incomplete in the endzone was Marshall and Brandon Marshall has got to be more aware that kotler's got an empty backfield and he's got heavy pressure he's got to get his head on the swivel and turned around more quickly than that Marshalls the inside receiver working against a safety this is an advantageous matchup and there's a ton of pressure on the corner there's a hold by the left tackle Matthews commanding it the Bears touch it if they don't get seven yards huge fly fourth and seven Cutler to the end zone touchdown Dillon Davis the tight end on a fourth and seven a 21 yard touchdown pass yeah I call this a stick nod route the tight ends going to make a little inside break on the linebacker and then run the linebacker right up the suit Cutler throws it beautifully over the head of DJ Smith talk about having to have one and coming up with it on fourth and long and you could put that on Donald Driver there's the stick right there over past DJ Jones beautifully thrown football touchdown Robbie Gould for the point after is good it's two possession game with 649 first the rap that was broken off an angry quarterback and then a desperate quarterback to his tight in for the touchdown 23:10 big aims NFL Total Access tomorrow 7:00 Eastern only on NFL Network goal to kick and it won't be returned hackers come out to the 20-yard line Aaron Rodgers last time he threw a pass he couldn't have been hotter at his receiver if frustrated because watch him break the Ralph comes in pivots to the outside now you can all of a sudden decide you're going to go deep and allow that corner of just step inside you the reaction yeah run the route run the route Cutler upset earlier because Bennett they could come back to the football and Woodson interception and that time justify oblique Rodgers upset Tim Jennings three interceptions on this young season already that last one as least given the Bears hope with six 49 to play Benson the tailback in the eyewear he's very comfortable tonight has been effective and he'll follow his fullback with a lose yardage loss of a yard major difference in the run game we touched on that at the top of the show Brad you know yeah let's not panic if you're Green Bay Fan nine carries for 18 but it's a new tailback trying to get them to move his line so I think what you're starting to see is this this Packer offense morphing into what it may become this year Green Bay has got 100 yards on the ground tonight's and Brad they were number 27 in the league in rushing last year they don't need to be great in rushing because they throw so well but they have to be efficient my action Rodgers comes up throwing incomplete so I'll stop the clock Jordy Nelson the intended receiver yeah he throw it to the correct receiver because he drew away from the secondary rotation of the Bears just a bad throw Brad they get a quick punt here yeah Chicago has two timeouts remaining they used one earlier the house so so this is a big third and 11 situation here the interesting to see if they bring pressure to try to get the ball out quickly safe to say it's the biggest third down of the ball game for the Bears defense this is a safety down here once you're Michael Finley that that's a math matchup issue for Chicago third and 11 Rodgers good call partner 26 yard pickup and he dumps it at the 45 yard line says I got enough I'm not going on the violence this is copper one a free safety here man down here Jordy Nelson is just gonna run a little simple cross route gets the protection puts it on them and like you said alertly Brad stays in bounds at the end of the play that's smart footballer you know again this kid is 6-3 217 pounds faster than you think an average 19 yard to catch a year ago now the give Benson you won't get any yardage but again the clocks gonna want his way under the five-minute mark we talked to Cedric Benson yesterday he quietly said we said the you look forward to playing Chicago because he was an overall number four pick in 2005 of the Bears he said yeah I always like to have a little something for him he's got a little something for him tonight I like what he said about the 9 carries he was like man not only that I only get nine carries but there were nine different run right and he never repeated the same he's like I just got here I can't get the same one twice he said you got to grease me up a little bit I gotta get a lot of touches he got 18 touches out of the backfield in the ground game he's been part with a past game as well he gets a breather Langston brings his Briggs is all over Alex Green yeah I think Alex Green is somebody Green Bay would love to develop when he came out of Hawaii I thought he was one of the better cast pass-catching running backs in the entire draft and he's he's 225 pounds catches the ball and capacitor deck so I think he could be the future they just need him to come along a little more quickly can you imagine the culture shock coming from wearing flip-flops all the time they're coming over Green Bay Wisconsin it's this pretty cool night now here what anybody look at that are you kidding me it does not get a whole lot better than Lambeau Field in a prime-time NFL game and we have primetime but we've got NFL am coming up tomorrow morning only morning show dedicated to the NFL tomorrow we'll have complete wrap-up of our game tonight including highlights and interviews with all the key players and coaches and we'll also have reports with the latest news from the big Sunday matchups NFL a.m. Monday through Friday 6 o'clock Eastern Time only on NFL Network as rich coach mooch and Marshall they'll be along when the game is over and you can see it is there is a hint of fall in the airs more of a hint more like a blast it was about 85 degrees in Green Bay yesterday and it's probably 55 right now stay tuned for that postgame show because they do a great job with the Stars the game Ayer Rogers another big third down if Chicago can get a stop here Rogers pump fakes now takes off stiff-armed and down he goes run down from behind by Shay McClelland yeah it's two pretty good athletes there Melton and McClelland both can run Rogers is not going to run away from those two guys do you notice who picked up Aaron Rodgers Brian Urlacher says come on man I give you a hand a little bit of respect between those two huh you know what's amazing to me Aaron Rodgers has been in this league eight years Brad and he's only 28 years old yeah McClellan's does a nice job rolling out here comes Melton from the inside out the tackle and then the old man comes over right now there you go brian says oh man not a bad run come on well it's always need to see the respect among guys especially guys they've been to multiple Pro Bowls together and get to know each other and their family you know they they they knock the tar out of each other yet love to pick them up when they need some help well they did force the punt now maste set to kick devin hester remember he got devin hester on the other end yeah if he gets a clean shot he could change the game here with 419 remaining he's going to take a crack at it from the 1708 ice coverage does at Green Bay Robert Francois and look at all this talking going on how much frustration Brad have we seen from the Bears right now a lot yep well Jay Cutler coming back out but more than anything he's been buried sacked knocked around of interceptive yeah ten-four 25 on the day the interception that was a bad throw inaccurate behind his receiver this one is the one that was off Karl Bennett that should have been a completion and an opportunity to score then the underthrown post corner that's a throwback post corner that takes a huge arm and j-just under throw it come on Williams two of those interceptions Charles Woodsen's got the other the Lambo curse continues for mr. Cutler yep Chicago is out of timeouts for four oh nine to go from here on is passing and hurrying and not this kind of thing that's just exactly what they don't need Durrell Worthy and Clay Matthews six sack of the night of Jay Cutler interesting what they're doing to slow down Clay Matthews now he's over here you're going to get a tight end and watch what happens you're going to get a double on him with the back what does that give you one-on-one inside who could win here he comes up the middle the cross both deejay rossi and jerel worthy and i've been saying all week long that somebody else outside a Clay Matthews his guy live on the bill breaking down the action complete with highlights and player interviews make sure you keep it right here McDonald's most games Joe rich in the guy's about four minutes o'clock time from now second down at 14 cutler again pressured and again goes down 7th sack of the night play Matthews has got him again and I think play Matthews might be the NFC Defensive Player of the week unless somebody has one better than he's had tonight overload blitz here Brad three on this side watch DJ Smith come through and it's just a stunt Smith pushes them up and really should get the credit for that because Clay Matthews just cleans up the refuse three and a half sacks for Matthews tonight's flags are everywhere I wouldn't be shocked if Matthews got partial credit for that worthy sack - he might have fooled by the time it's all over when they look at this thing officially and the game's over put men on defense it's a five-year-old Middleton previous pod first down you know Brad up there two guys I think about a great start defensively on the NFL season on these teams I think it's the guy you just identified repo forego Clay Matthews and I think Tim Jennings from Chicago was played really well last week I thought he was us they gave the game ball last week and I thought he played tremendously well and again tonight bleh Matthew said to us is it a must-win game about that but we don't ever expect to lose and I think it will calm people down here Green Bay they're really nervous about two consecutive home losses and all the rest of that that learn Waits throws to Marshall Ross at 22 pounds did you short of the first down yeah it is a 14-yard pickup though whitson back in there around Jay Cutler again Woodson's been gone a chippy here in the second half 35 years old and fifty-five career interceptions with the wanting hat tonight gotta go I wouldn't want a big lock in number 52 look at him they're moving him around he's coming from linebacker and is intercepted again this one's jariabek villain why did they call it down let's say if he was out of bounds or touched bounce bounce bounce maybe did hit the ground I don't know if he had that yep doesn't matter because it was fourth down either way it's gonna beat Green Bay possession right and a great play on the ball that's for sure and that that's not a catch that is not a catch but again it's just a matter where they mark if they're actually better off they're better off if it's not an interception because then they'll get it into the line of scrimmage now they're going to say down by context yeah the interception and I think that's going to get overturned because it's a turnover and it'll be looked at up here but my point is if it is overturned we'll go back to the line of scrimmage at balls thrown late and it's been a brutal night for this Chicago office three minutes remaining dream bacon chew up most of the clock because Chicago doesn't have any way to stop it except the two-minute warning so first down at the 30 McMillon by the way another one of those rookies we've talked about a fourth round pick at a Division one double-a mean I told you they're gonna look at this thing apparently they're gonna let it go I don't know what what Mike McCarthy sort of looked at the official said let's play ball I don't care if it's an interception or not just give it back to us either way it's our ball yeah so it's at the 30-yard line and now it's Cedric Benson yeah snapped into the secondary play Matthews and then he had a pretty good night and I'd say so talked about all week what does he do fast he wins one-on-one he's relentless he's gonna beat most left tackles - Marcus Webb a little bit of a mismatch on him today even when he's blocked he continues he's like the Energizer Bunny gets attacked late hear the DJ Smith forces him back in the pocket and I think we should also get some credit on top of him some of his young teammates need to start playing like we saw Daniel's from Iowa we sold Tyrell worthy play well as defensive tackles in the past game tonight Cedric Benson behind his fullback lashes way inside the 20 or the first animal and the clock will work its way to the two-minute warning they're in Rogers steam show star of the game and highlights an analysis I'm just glad I got through this without clay Matthew sacking me I'm sort of on a roll tonight and you see riches added the sweater because it has cooled off a little bit here at Lambeau Field so rich used to be kind of a northeastern guy but but I think he's got the pin blood out in LA now yeah you know all the Bears have to do is take a couple of knees they'll go to one and one the folks that were panicking since Sunday when them Packers lost to the 49ers can take a sigh of relief they've got a long break now because they don't play until the 24th at Seattle Monday night and then a big one against the Saints in the Houston and Saint Louis to follow and for Chicago they've got st. Louis next and the Cowboys Jacksonville thereby week Detroit and Carolina those in the next five for the Bears and there's no reason for either of these teams to panic last week was Green Bay panic Chicago coming off a big week this week Green Bay stabilizes the ship and Chicago's realizing maybe we're not as good as we thought we were right but but it's you never as good as you think yours bad of course the Packers defense much-maligned a year ago and especially in the loss to the 49ers have allowed only a hundred and sixty-eight yards to the Bears tonight four turnovers four interceptions they sacked Jay Cutler seven times and out all aaron rodgers has to do is take another knee and this one's going to be in the books and Donald Driver his 60th touchdown catches a packer kind of broke this thing open after a turnover it was the kill shot from Aaron Rodgers 26 yards to the old man Donald Driver who do the Lambeau leap and that was just about the end of it both teams now the NFC North they're 1 along play Matthews a huge night rich said at least he didn't get sacked by Matthews he will join the guys on the set though and talk to him so I'd say to all you guys watch out watch you go down there in the backfield so Green Bay rebounds in fine fashion against their oldest rival and they went it at home snap a 2-game Lambo losing streak 23 to 10 is the final one quarterback had a good night and one had a very very tough night don't forget coming up McDonald's postgame show clay matthews will join the guys all the highlights and analysis here from Lambeau Field Packers are one-on-one the Bears fall to one final score the Packers to
