NFL history...

the Chicago Bears beat(stomped)the Washington Redskins,73-0,in the 1940 NFL Championship game,at Griffith Stadium(also home to the Washington Senators,from 1911 to 1965)...

Packers' news...

the Packers will celebrate the 1961 NFL Championship team,by introducing eighteen players from that team,and Vince Lombardi's daughter,Susan,at halftime,of this Sunday's game,against the Denver Broncos... that year's team stomped the New York Giants,37-0(still the second biggest shutout,in NFL championship history)...

Packers' news,and some trivia...

Aaron Rodgers named NFC Offensive Player of the month.... he leads NFL,in passer rating,completion percentage,and is tied with fewest interceptions(one-by Brian Urlacher,of the Chicago Bears-on a great defensive play,but Bears did nothing with turnover) Urlacher seems to be Rodgers' nemesis(last year,he ran one back in NFC Championship game,for a touchdown)... Urlacher was a safety,in first two years,at New Mexico...

fun fact...

Packers' coach Mike McCarthy's father was a policemen,a fireman,and owned a bar.... sometimes,you can not be too serious,and have to smile,at fun facts...

beatdown of the week...

i honestly thought about the Bears'/Packers' game,for beatdown of the week,but the Baltimore Ravens laid on a real whipping on the St. Louis Rams,and what made it memorable was that it was in St. Louis,in front of a big(but after a 21 point first period),and silent crowd... the Rams did absolutely nothing until they were down,30-0,when they scored their only touchdown,on a spectacular catch,in back of the end zone... the Ravens had 406 yards on offense,in first half,and 553 yards overall,(both franchise records),and their defense even had a touchdown,on a fumble return... they sacked Sam Bradford(Rams' quarterback)five times,unless Bradford got injured on one of the sacks(here lies Sam Bradford,it should read at the 50-yard line),and they even intercepted him once... final score Ravens 37,Rams 7,and it was not even that close,at all... total beatdown!!!!!

commentary...

when you are held to 13 yards on 12 carries(and your quarterback had nine yards on one carry)you stunk up the place... when your defensive players are the best players on the field,and still have a chance to win,you are very lucky... Chicago should have been blown out in this game,but i have to give credit to the Bears' defense,giving up only 27 points to the Packers,including two field goals(red zone defense disrupted Aaron Rodgers all day)... outside of two quick touchdowns,in first seventeen minutes(and 14-0 lead),it was a basic Bears'/Packers' game... outside of Jay Cutler,the Bears had no offense,in second half,besides a disputed fumble recovery,when Julius Peppers landed on football,while his shoulder was out-of-bounds(he actually took a slide out of bounds when recovering football),and one touchdown pass,on next play,the Bears did absolutely nothing in the second half,on offense... Cutler ran for his life all day,and getting sacked,at least three times... you may mention the last minute non punt return for touchdown,by the Bears,but i have seen video of the hold,on number 21(Corey Graham)that negated the return... it was not much of a hold(he grabbed the Packers' player,WITH LEFT HAND,around the collar,and right shoulder)... with the Packers receivers(Greg Jennings-119 yards,and Jermichael Finley 85 yards,with three touchdown catches,along with Ryan Grant having a good game(92 yards on 17 carries),the only thing keeping the Bears in game,was the Bears' defense,because with these numbers,the Packers should have breezed to a victory...

schedule update...

Denver Broncos visit Lambeau Field,Sunday... commentary ,and beatdown of week(Ravens vs. Rams,or Packers vs. Bears,or Lions vs Vikings)... have to decide which one it is-each have a beatdown segment of game involved,including Bears getting only some of their lowest rushing totals,in nearly 60 years,Lions coming back from a 20-0 halftime deficit,and Ravens scoring first 30 points of their game,with Rams,in St. Louis... both are coming out today...
