Girlfriend Bets Me Dinner That Bears Win Vs. Packers

[BallU13]

I think the bears still stick around.

[RonPaul2008]

She's a huge Bears fan, as well as most of her family. Little does she know that I gamble here, and know that the Packers should at least beat the Bears, if not cover the spread-whatever it may be. The Packers have to win to make it to the playoffs. I say easy win for me

Assuming Atlanta beats Carolina...and that game is earlier then the Bears game...the Bears will have nothing to play for and the Packers have everything to play for. The Bears are going to get demolished.

[RonPaul2008]

No. Way. BEARS arent built to play quarterbacks like Aaron Rodgers. Granted they got their little cheap win early in the season but really? No way, Aaron Rodgers can pick apart ANY defense with that group hes got. Packers Roll, and dont be surprised if they make a deep playoff run.

Bears=Overrated, first round LOSS!

The Bears won't be playing in the first round.

[ShogunRua]

Congrats OP. Bears will get steam-rolled in Green Bay after locking up that #2 seed.

[Dutch]

Bears will be on cruise control....Should have made the bet that if she wins you take her out to dinner, if you win she has butt sex. Good Day!

[newguy]

Bears will be stupid to go up in Green Bay and try hard to win a meaningless game risking an injury vs a team they might face later in the playoffs.

True. I remember how it was also stupid for ny giants to play hard against pats at end of season a few years back. Seems to have worked out for giants.

Packers are no lock in this situation.

Unfortunately true. This isn't like an NFC v AFC throw away matchup either... it's a divisional game.

There is a big difference here. Packers must win this game to get in the playoffs. And since they play at home they will play and risk if needed to push the Bears around at all cost.

I agree. I also realize that a team with everything on the line has a lot of extra pressure that can cause them to tighten up. I am just saying this isn't a lock

Take the Bears in the first half if you think the game will be moved to 1 o'clock. The NFL made a mistake moving this to a late game. They changed a number of things with the goal that teams would play their starters more in Week 17, yet still moved this game to 4 p.m. Buccaneers and Giants organizations should be lobbying for a time change.

[slatter]

Should have bet a BJ instead.

[dherd]

what about the desert?

[JMobile]

Your girlfriend just wants to take you out for dinner at the nearest Taco Bell.

[mitote]

Should have bet a BJ instead.

If you win you let her give you a BJ! If you lose you let her give you a BJ anyway!

[PlatinumBerg]

The last time I won a bet with my girlfriend, I got to tie her up in bed!

I am a huge Bears fan myself and even I know the Bears have no chnace this Sunday.

This.

[Stevedore]

All the defensive players that are talking to the media here in Chicago are saying how embarassed they are that Mark SANCHEZ jersey looked spotless last Sunday's game. You can bet they will be turning it up against Aaron Rodgers to make a point. The Bears secondary is their weakest link and a good QB like Rodgers could easily pick them apart if he has time. The D-Line for the Bears will be bringing it early and often for Sunday's game! Bears 24- Pack 21. No playoffs for the Pack.

Who's the best QB statistically in the league against the blitz? Aaron Rodgers is, and the Bear front will try to get him with 4. They won't be coming early and often, they do, and they'll get torched! They didn't blitz him in the first game and won't in this one. They'll give up the underneath stuff and go for strips and try to force turnovers and make Green Bay beat themselves with mistakes. This is what happened in the first game. It won't in this one, 28-17 Pack.

I know one for sure, this will be a good game to watch.

Yup

packs by 17+

[Sportsgirl]

Well now that the Eagles lost, Bears don't have much to play for. Thinking of going fairly big on the Pack. Thoughts? This is a MUST WIN for Green Bay.

Technically, Chicago has homefield advantage to play for. The Bears will know by the time they play the Packers on Sunday if they have a shot at the No. 1 seed in the NFC. It's a long shot since they would need the Saints and Falcons to lose home games to inferior competition.

Still, either way I like the Pack to win in Lambeau, but not cover the 10.

[Dex17]

You mine as well start thinking about where you're going and what you're gonna be ordering. No way in Hell Pack lose this game @ home with the playoffs on the line with the offense and defense rolling.

It's "might as well", not "mine as well"... just a friendly note so you don't keep using that blurb incorrectly for the rest of your life.

[Dex17]

My only worry is that the Bears will want to step up their D because of their performance last sunday, although they did get the win, the Jets of all teams, scored 34 points on them.

I doubt that just because the Bears choose to step up their D that it would make any difference against Green Bay's passing attack. I know so many people absolutely love the motivation factor, but that's just silly.

Well said!

A rationale with an actual statistic or historical basis is hard to come by these days. All you get is "this team really wants to make a statement... blah blah blah".

[purecarnagge]

That's fukked up dude. Gotta keep it reasonable. I'll just let her know, you don't doubt Aaron Rodgers. Kid can tear apart any D.

You might want to add a few drinks to the bill to keep it reasonable and yet a educational experience. This is assuming that she knows you gamble.

[jollyoscars]

bears will roll! hopefully its not too expensive of a dinner for ya! haha

[ZetaPsi808]

pakcers roll tomorrow

[ZetaPsi808]

bears suck on the road and rodgers is playing

[daneault23]

GF told me today that the final score will be 28-24 Bears

[manicart]

Bears already Clinched division
I got Packs - 9.5 here and possibly a 1H play
GL with that dinner
Aaron Rodgers makes Bears look embarrassing today and prove who should have won this division.

[obamaismyuncle]

I remember betting oral sex with my girlfriend at the time on the 96' super bowl, she had the pats and I had green bay

[yisman]

Take the Bears in the first half if you think the game will be moved to 1 o'clock.

The NFL doesn't move games at the last minute barring extenuating circumstances (like the stadium blowing up or something).

This.

You just agreed to a post saying you're a huge Bears fan.
