It's a complete no-brainer if you have any kind of passing game, and the Packers have one of the two or three best in the league. The odds of Rodgers driving down the field in two minutes and scoring a game-tying touchdown were so much greater than those of the Bears missing a 19-yard field goal, there's absolutely no debate. Don't give me this bullshit about "anything can happen on a field goal". How many missed/blocked 19-yard field goals/extra points have you seen in your life? And how many two-minute touchdown drives have you seen?

The Packers had the worst loss of the year last night, worse than the Cowboys' loss to Washington, worse than the Jets' loss to the Ravens, worse than Washington's loss to Houston. They were insanely better than the Bears last night and even with all of their penalties, it was McCarthy who put the nail in his own team's coffin by praying for a missed 19-yarder rather than putting the ball in his all-world passing game's hands.
I have to agree Joey..was screaming at the TV in China Tuesday morning.

EDIT..Especially since it was Robbie Gould
