This is an undrafted RB that has been with 7 different teams.

Absolute defensive embarrassment.

That drive is what the Packers should have been doing on offense all game.

Brewers opening day is 67 days away. Gonna be a long 67 days though.

At least the AFC game was somewhat competitive.

Did they just not bother planning for Mostert at all? This is a total embarrassment now.

Welp ...

Hey, crappy special teams. Welcome back!

I don’t know about frauds. They are what they are, at least a year away. The season as a whole exceeded expectations. Yep. The people viewing them as "frauds" are puzzling to me. It seems like there is a portion of the fan base who have been waiting to say 'I told you so' since October. There is a subgroup of Packer fans out there who love to be miserable.

We are seeing the difference between a bad running attack (Seahawks with Lynch) and a good one.

Mostert is making me mad now. Tackle that guy!!!

Wow, when it rains it pours. For cripes sake.

How in the world did Mouse Turd kick around the league as a 3rd stringer for 5 different teams? He looks legit. To think he was once a Bear.

My thoughts exactly after that 4 yard loss on the screen pass. Gotta start taking some shots, but I don't know how they can when we can't block that pass rush at all. That's the problem. Rodgers has no time back there.

Well, the 7-step drop, 4 receivers running 20 yard crossers strategy isn't working either.

Horrible. Horrible offensive game plan. Yet another slow-developing drop-back. Go up-tempo, get it out quick, or they are screwed.

This 49er team is such a good tackling team. Wow.

About a 53-yard field goal. Do they go for the kick, or try to pin the Packers deep? I know it's not the case, but it feels like every FG ever attempted against the Packers from 50+ looks about as routine as an XP. 54 yards. Looked like an extra point. Because of course it did.

Quick passing game is the only thing that's gonna work. This crap is exactly what they cannot do. Slow developing pass plays against this line is going to be death.

Would be interested in the Favre, Howard and Nitschke 8x10s, depending on what you are looking for.

John Leglue is saying a few Hail Marys regardless I'm betting.

Stopped at our local Papa Murphy's last night, and they have a "Pizza Friday" deal. $5 for a large 1-topping thin-crust. That seems like a steal.

Considering the train wreck-level results we saw from 3/5ths of the rotation (Burnes, Peralta and Chacin) for a large portion of the season, "dreadful" would likely be an improvement. I'd be extremely surprised if Lindblom, Lauer and Anderson aren't significantly better than those three. What might be tougher is picking up the slack from not having the solid work of Davies, Anderson, Lyles and Gonzalez. The Brewers definitely need to address the lack of solid depth in the starting pitching department for 2020. Burnes and Peralta made a grand total of 12 starts between them. In Peralta's first start he threw 8 shutout innings fanning 11. In two of his other 7 starts he allowed one earned run. The difference last year was that Peralta and Burnes were clearly on short leashes. Chacin wasn't that bad the first 6 weeks either. The guys they added this year, Brett Anderson, Lauer, and Lindblom are going to be given much longer leashes as is Houser who still has a rather limited track record. Last year they also had proven major league quality starters in their prime in Davies and Anderson, and their best starter down the stretch was Lyles. Now all 3 are gone and replaced by guys will lesser track records. Despite losing tons of lineup punch in Moustakas, Grandal and Thames, it's plausible this year's lineup can be just as productive, but the pitching staff and rotation in particular is a complete crap shoot, not unlike many many years of Brewer history where team ended up sub .500. Compared to the Reds, Cardinals and Cubs, it's clearly inferior. Being unwilling to pay Anderson and Lyles was simply dumbfounding to me. I think of Woodruff, Houser, Lauer, Lindblom and Anderson, four out of five will likely be just fine, health permitting. The key is going to be finding another 3-4 guys who can take starts without getting embarrassed. Perhaps they consider Peralta one of those guys, but his value might be better in the pen. Burnes is a complete crapshoot at this point. Suter could make starts, but he proved he can be a very effective weapon out of the pen last year. They need more starting depth in the organization, and I expect 2-3 guys signed to minor league deals in the next month or so.

Hiring retreads like Washington or Showalter seems like such a bad idea. Umm, retreads? Two extremely successful managers. Just because they’ve had other jobs previously doesn’t make them a retread. Washington has certainly had success, but I have a hard time seeing them pick someone with multiple skeletons in his closet. Washington has has an odd, albeit successful, career as a manager.
