Packers QB Aaron Rodgers recounts Bears legend Brian Urlacher’s vulgar audibles

GREEN BAY, Wisc. — A simple, seemingly innocuous question to Aaron Rodgers led to a hilarity in the Packers’ locker room Thursday: Who is your all-time favorite Bear?

Rodgers readily answered with Hall of Fame linebacker Brian Urlacher, then rolled into a story about his hijinks in a 2009 game at Lambeau Field. Every time Rodgers called out a change at the line of scrimmage, without exception, Urlacher would call one for the Bears’ defense.

But Urlacher’s calls didn’t sound like football plays.

“The checks he was saying were super inappropriate,” Rodgers said. “I think it was [before] the mic’ing up of the guards, where every single word is heard, because I promise you if that had happened today, you know, some of that stuff would’ve had to get bleeped out.
