What should the Packers do vs. the Bears?

It's the Bears. Longest rivalry in NFL history. You have to play to win, with all the starters on board.

Don't want anyone to get hurt. Put the second stringers in if SF loses to Seattle.

Flynn looked awful in the 10 minutes or so of the first quarter that I watched. His numbers came around and maybe he also looked a lot better, but I can't imagine him even beginning to look as good as Rodgers does playing QB.

And hardly anything was on the line for either team in this game. When nothing is at stake - no defense is played - its akin to the Pro Bowl.

The Lions were playing to avoid the Saints.

Flynn looked pretty great against New England in a game last year when Rodgers went down. Packers will wisely sell high on him after this start.

Green Bay undeniably has a great passing offense so, sure, it's going to be easier for the number two guy to come in and try to continue to make it work but I've heard people actually knocking Rodgers and questioning if he deserves the recognition he's been getting because his success is a function of the system.

IIRC, they did the same to Brady after the Pats went 11-5 in his ACL rehab season.
