7. Bears Cut The Cheese In GB – Then Realize They Sharted

Sat, Oct 22, 2016

The Bears headed to Lambeau for a Thursday nighter, facing A-A-Ron Rodgers and his career-low QBR 88.4.  (BTW, Cutler’s career QBR is 85.9).  We brought our #2, Brian “The Deuce” Hoyer, who’d thrown for 300 yards 4 games in a row, and hadn’t thrown an INT in 181 passes.  But we didn’t discount double-check ourselves before we discount double-wrecked ourselves, as Rodgers completed a franchise-record 39 passes.  And while Deuce extended his NFL-best pick-less streak to 200, he threw for just 49 yards before getting toolboxed by Clay “Captain Toolbox” Matthews, who broke Hoyer’s arm.  Cut to our #3 QB, Matt “Gnarls Charles” Barkley, who wasn’t even on our roster until a month ago.  So we’ve reached Defcon 3 – we’re down to our Gary Johnson of QB’s.
