Playing the Bears is always tough, no matter the records. However the Packers were able to jump out to an early lead thanks to another great game by Aaron Rodgers and a breakout game by Jermichael Finley. Finley ended up with 3 touchdowns, he presents a very difficult matchup for the defense. Too big for CBs and too fast for LBs and safetys.
Ryan Grant also had a good day, rushing for over 90 yards and showing the ability he has to find the hole, make one cut and head up field, which is key in the zone blocking scheme of the Packers run offense. Unfortunately, he ended up injuring his kidney and will be out this week. We also lost Bryan Bulaga to what initially looked like a pretty bad knee injury, based off his reaction. However, it turned out to not be that serious and while he will be out this week he won't be out for the season. His replacement, Marshall Newhouse, played pretty well, and will be starting at RT this week against the Broncos.
The defense put in a good effort from start to finish. They completely shut down the Bears running game, holding Matt Forte to only 2 yards. Clay Matthews had several tackles in the backfield and on a few occasions nearly met the running back as he took the handoff. The defense sacked Cutler 3 times, including one from Jarius Wynn, who has played well as a fill in for the injured Mike Neal, Neal was supposed to replace the departed Cullen Jenkins, but there doesn't seem to be a major drop off from that loss yet. Morgan Burnett picked off Cutler twice, giving him three interceptions on the year. With Nick Collins gone, Burnett will have to pick up his game to make up some of Collins play making ability. Burnett got injured early last year, so he has not started many games, but has shown some ball hawking ability early on.
Randall Cobb has shown himself to be fearless on punt returns, catching the ball in traffic in an attempt to save as much field position as possible. The punt unit was absolutely fooled on that trick return by the Bears late in the game, luckily there was a hold early in the return which wiped the touchdown off the board and helped seal up the victory.
The Packers are heavy favorites this week against the Broncos and should win the game. Denver has a few good young players on defense and has a few injured players returning this week. They have played mostly close games this year, but have yet to play a team the caliber of the Packers. James Starks should see the bulk of the carries in the running game, but we could also see the debut of Alex Green, the rookie out of Hawaii, who should be active for the first time this year due to Grants injury. John Kuhn will also most likely see some carries at tailback, in that case watch for our plethora of back up TEs to fill in at FB. Hopefully the Packers can put the Broncos away sometime in the 3rd quarter, so that Matt Flynn can get some snaps and allow Rodgers a little extra rest.
During the Bears game I snacked on some breadsticks and toasted ravioli. The ravioli recipe came from the most recent issue of Food Network Magazine . Here is how you make them. You begin with frozen ravioli, which you can buy pre-frozen from the grocery store, or you can buy fresh ravioli and freeze it yourself. You will need bread crumbs, which ever kind you like, milk, eggs, and oil for frying. Your wet mixture is made up of 1/2 cup of milk and one egg beaten together in a pie plate. Pour your bread crumbs into a separate pie plate. Dip the ravioli into the wet mixture, then put into the bread crumbs and make sure it gets fully coated on both sides, then place it onto a cookie sheet.
Once all the ravioli is coated, place the cookie sheet in the freezer for 15 minutes. During that time heat your oil up to 350 degrees, you can use a heavy bottom saucepan or a deep fryer. Put the coated ravioli into the oil, depending on the size of your ravioli they will need to cook between 2 and 6 minutes, you can do a couple test runs to determine the right amount of time.
Once the ravioli is fried, transfer to a cookie sheet with a cooling rack to allow excess oil to drip off.
Serve the ravioli with a marinara sauce to dip them in, enjoy.
