Do you know what the Bears and Packers accomplished over the weekend? Got it figured out? It might have slipped by you if you weren’t paying attention. Cutler’s stunning anti-performance was very distracting, after all. The Packers gladly took up his slack and yanked the Bears all around the field. Still don’t know?
Alright, I’ll tell ya. Neither team punted.
That’s only happened once before in NFL history, back in 1992, between the Buffalo Bills and the San Francisco 49ers. After knowing this, it’s sorta coming back to you now, isn’t it? Punting is something we’re all so used to seeing every single game, but the fact that so much depressing crap was happening to the Bears on Sunday served to distract the fans and viewers from what wasn’t happening.
That’s the only thing the two teams did together. Otherwise, it was all Packers, baby.
Thanks to NESN for this story.
