I'm sitting at my desk smiling just thinking about last night's game. The Packers, behind Aaron Rodgers' arm, put up six first-half touchdowns en route to a dominating 55-14 win over the Bears.
But you know all that already.
In today's cheese curds, we're trying to find some interesting tidbits about the games within the game, and things that might not have come up or have been thoroughly explained during the game and the immediate aftermath. Enjoy!

The quotes from Andrew Quarless and Randall Cobb make you hope that the offense can keep this up - Cobb says this is "normal" and Q says that his quarterback "doesn't surprise" him.

Well if you want to get technical, Rodgers' couple of incompletions in the second half dropped his passer rating down from around a perfect 158.3 to 145.8. Though if you subscribe to ESPN's total QBR, he got a 99.8 out of 100 last night.

Julius Peppers' speech fired up Green Bay Packers - ESPN
Apparently the former Bear made quite an impression on his Packers teammates before the game, and Tramon Williams said that the team "did everything that he said (to do)."
