Anytime the Packers beat the Bears it's a great day, but to do it like they did yesterday was special. Obviously beating your arch division rival who took you out last season is going to feel good, but then you gotta see what Bears fans, players, and coaches were saying going into this game. It seems Luther Burden's words really got around the Packers locker room and lit a fire under some guys. 

Zaire Franklin made sure to call him out afterwards once the script got flipped. 

Now it's one thing to lose in the NFL. Happens all the time. Hell, we're only a few weeks removed from the Packers getting their doors blown off by the Falcons during their home opener. You take your licks, regroup, and try to fix your mistakes the following week. Well, instead of just putting his head down after getting obliterated, Luther Burden decided to get into it with NBA big man Anthony Davis, a fellow Packers fan. Not only did AD trigger Burden into a public back and forth, but he got him to brag about leading the Bears in receiving yards with a whopping total of 47 through the air. That's what we're hanging our hat on after a 31-7 bludgeoning. 

It'd be one thing if he went off with like 10 receptions 140 yards and 2 touchdowns. Still a bad look to brag about stats in a loss, but I reason with it. 4 catches for 47 yards? Would have been the 4th leading receiver for Green Bay. Way to go man! Not your fault you guys lost. 47 whole yards, you did your job. If I'm in the Bears front office I make that guy delete his social media. Can't be having guys brag about 47 receiving yards in a franchise embarrassing loss. Loved it from my end though, keep posting through it.
