    I'm willing to chalk it up to a bad day at the office for the offense. The defensive problems are pretty concerning. Things haven't gotten better since they took a turn for the worse against Philly. They still can't stop the run and the big chunk plays have continued to be there. They were there for Matt Moore, they were there for Philip Rivers. At this point I think the early season hope for many that this would be a dominant defense has come and gone. They are who they are, and some of the issues just can't be fixed in-season.

    You have to read between the lines, but Rodgers pretty much came out and said that some guys on the team spent too much time this weekend partying rather than preparing for the Chargers.

    Gary doesn't really look like a great pick so far. I know it's hard to judge this early, but he was an unfinished project at UM and he's still an unfinished project here. Taking a raw guy that early was a really odd fit for our other offseason moves. I really wanted to use both 1st round picks to move up and get Bosa, but I acknowledge that maybe wasn't a possibility, don't know if the 49ers were even willing to deal. #12 is just awfully early to get a guy that you don't expect to have much impact as a rookie especially attempting to contend already. I hope he grows into what we hope but I think it's far more likely than not that he just ends up being a guy.

    I really thought coming into this year, this was a put up or shut up year for the Packer D. I felt like they needed to be a top 5 to 7 unit to justify everything they've done to overhaul it in the offseason, and the more I watch them the more it looks like nothing has changed. Collectively, they're not getting the job done. Individually, I have to think there's talent. They went out and made a huge investment in the Smiths, a huge investment in Amos, a 1st rounder in Clark, traded up in the 1st for Savage, took Gary with a high 1st, spent 1st and 2nd rounders on King, Alexander, and Jackson. They have poured every bit of resources into fixing this defense usually at the expense of the offense. There is not much more that they can do to fix the D that they haven't been doing. At some point you've got to figure out why the hell this pattern has continued for the better part of the last decade with no improvement.

    After today's debacle, I still think winning the division is more likely than not, but one and done is quite possible. The NFC field will be loaded with good to great teams, and potentially WC round opponents like the Rams, Vikings, and Seahawks could easily send us home immediately. The only chance of a sustained playoff run that I see is if Rodgers goes into "God mode" for 3 or 4 games in January. I can't totally discount that possibility, but the defense has proven that it isn't nearly good enough to carry the team against any non-Mitchell Trubisky led teams when Rodgers isn't perfect.

    He was terrible today in his decision making. Had Williams for the first on 4th and 4 and again threw a deep ball that had no real chance. I'm frankly glad they didn't score on the last drive because the last thing they needed today was to be able to steer the narritive that they fought back hard because the final score was only 26-19 and didn't look that lopsided. They needed a humbling.

    I just thought they might win the division. Host a playoff game. Never went into this season thinking Super Bowl. Hopefully they can right the ship and still win the division. Not sure though. I think they could still possibly win the division, but only because I don't think they're really competing with anyone besides Minnesota and they're in a favorable tiebreaker position. While things can change, they clearly are at best a very distant #3 team in the NFC right now and not on the level of the 49ers or Saints. Let's just hope at this point that they can bounce back at home against Carolina, not a gimme game at all.

    Since the Philly game, they've allowed 404 yards per game. Going to take a lot of context to make that look good.
  9. adambr2
    I can't believe that anyone watching this actually fancies this team a Super Bowl contender. Just too many things that they are really bad at. This may be the worst run defense I've ever seen out of any Packer team, ever. Christian McCaffrey might go through 3 pairs of cleats next week.
  10. adambr2
    There was some inflated yardage due to the big early leads. I never understood this. Jumping out to big leads and then allowing the other team back in it shouldn't count against your defense? How is that inflated? They jumped out to a huge lead against the Vikings, then the defense let them back in the game....but that shouldn't be held against them?
  11. adambr2
    It's like watching 11 sloths trying to run down a guy in open space. Wasn't this supposed to be a new, faster defense now?
  12. adambr2
    I'm ok with Pettine going. The defense hasn't improved one iota under his leadership despite an insane number of additions and investments. This is as talented of a defensive group as I've seen on this team since 2010 and it's the same old results. Chalk this up to a bad day at the office. I’m a little jaded, but not ready to pile on Pettine. They were the 23rd ranked defense coming into today and that will certainly get worse after today. It's not one day. They continually get gashed every week since the Philly game. The results haven't come close to matching the talent.
  13. adambr2
    It's not the loss, and you know it. Anyone could have possibly seen a loss coming today. It's the manner in which they were completely humbled and dominated today. You won't see the Patriots, Saints or 49ers get embarrassed to this magnitude this year.

    3rd and short running plays are just a sure thing against this defensive front.

    Haven't seen many posts touting the awesomeness of Jaire Alexander lately. This entire defense is just a train wreck allowing yardage. And we see what happens when Rodgers isn't on. When Rodgers can carry us, we can win. When he doesn't, we see this. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

    I don't put today much on the defense at all, but it's incredibly discouraging that they have a new coordinator, talented new personnel, are healthy, and still get gashed up and down the field on a weekly basis. "Bend but don't break" isn't a sustainable defensive strategy.
  18. adambr2
    I am going to give them a mulligan here on the road. Really discouraging as healthy as we are that the defense still sucks though. Yeah, me too. Gonna put my phone down until Noon next Sunday and tune out the noise. I have no idea how good this team is, but I know they aren’t this bad. They certainly aren't this bad, but they've got a lot of work to do. They're a very, very hollow 7-1.

    I am going to give them a mulligan here on the road. Really discouraging as healthy as we are that the defense still sucks though. New personnel, new coordinator, same defense. It's been enormously disappointing.

    This is an overrated football team.
  21. adambr2
    The Packers are having something to say about that.
  22. adambr2
    Getting absolutely embarrased by the Los Angeles Chargers but people think this team is a Super Bowl contender. Ok then.
  23. adambr2
    This is an albatross of a performance. Did LaFleur really just say they're all exhausted because their flight got in late? My God. You have a freaking week to get there. Maybe come up with a better plan that isn't going to involve getting there at 3 am on the West Coast on the day of the game.
  24. adambr2
    We are going to be pretty grateful by the end of the day that the Chiefs pulled it out against the Vikings the way this one is going.
  25. adambr2
    Absolutely dominated in the 1st half by a 3-5 team.
