Packer rant

What is wrong with these guys? Blast the Bears then get routed by the lowly Saints. Then lose at home to the Panthers in a must win game. They score a TD and then the other team returns a kick 50 yards. Duh. And Sunday they're on the Panthers one yard line, Everyone on the defense is up to the line and what do they do? Run the ball right into the pile of them for no gain. Duh. I think our season is over.

But Rodgers is certainly not the blame.

rodgers has been stellar and put up some good numbers this year....the reason they are struggling in tight games is lack of experiance...they are still a pretty young team and lack a little bit of experiance on how to win tight games...every game they lost this year apart from the Saints game was pretty close..

You look at the stats and they outganied their opposition, outscored their opposition, have more TOP than the opposition, more takeaways than their opposition...and then you ask how they have a losing record...

The Packers are 27th in the league in rushing defense. They've given up 17 rushing TD's, exceeded only by Detroit (22), St. Louis (21), and Kansas City (20).

If you can't stop the run, it's hard to win games.

Pretty much, and the only reason those games have not been absolute blow outs is for the reasons Irish explained...

NO ONE should ever attribute the Packers demise to the loss of Favre... other than from a cheerleading/experience factor. From what I've seen, the Packers, simply, have no defense.

The Packers fans can at least be appreciative they're not rooting for the Lions or the Chiefs!!!!!!

The Chiefs are actually getting better. They have some young up and comers on both offense and defense. They still have a few holes to fill on their defense (D line, LB) but they have the makings of a great secondary. They will be good again in a year or two.

Well, they pretty much scored, the offense, scored enough to win the game. They had over 400+ yards of offense.

But, I agree, their D kinda sucks
