Vikings got the Falcons, Seahawks and Arizona up next. Hopefully they can go on a losing streak and we can get on a roll.

Anybody BONEHEAD STUPID enough to blame Aaron Rodgers for the Packer losses should find himself a new team to whine about. You like Cutler better? Or Bridgewater or Stafford? Or anybody else for that matter?

The primary problem IS in fact the O Line; Less than super pass receivers also contributes; Wasting downs running doesn't help either, given the lack of blocking; Good Defense against us had something to do with it too, but when those same defenses get shredded by the O Lines of other teams, it says a lot about ours.

We WILL get back on track, but it will be BECAUSE of Aaron Rodgers and IN SPITE of lame O Line blocking both in the running game and passing game.

I'm okay w/ blaming the OL for all world hunger; but not for SEVERAL BONEHEAD STUPID plays like this.

Question did the OL play any better v. Vikings? of course not; yet we scored 30 on the road! Maybe the difference was a little attitude adjustment created when Tolzien got some 1st team reps last week.

What's really "interesting" is the idea is put forward that some are called "BONEHEAD STUPID" for blaming Aaron Rodgers for the losses. Yet it's opined a few sentences later that Aaron Rodgers will pull us out despite the play of everyone else. Is this not an admission that Aaron Rodgers has sucked; and when he stops sucking; GB will win? So if it was Aaron Rodgers not playing as well as he can that caused GB to lose; why is it "BONEHEAD STUPID" to say so?

Despite the facts, protecting those idols!

Not to mention the offensive line looks a whole lot worse when Rodgers refuses to throw the ball from the pocket. He'll dance around and throw without his feet set in a clean pocket or dance around and try to run out of it after 4 or 5 seconds. No QBs offensive line consistently gives them 5 seconds of a clean pocket (not that it would matter if it could the way he's playing). Rodgers has been way too skittish and we have no offense because of it. No matter what play is called he's turning it into backyard scramble drill. Luckily it worked enough times against Minnesota combined with Lacy beasting that we got some production but whenever teams are able to get a good contain rush and keep Rodgers in the pocket he's losing his shit and panicking all over the place throwing ducks. He's gotta get whatever's broken in his head fixed or the offense will continue to suck, it's on him.

With 6 games to go I found a fascinating thing:

The Packers have 90% chances of making the playoffs IF:

a) They win 4 of the next 6 games (any 4 of them)
b) They win 2 of the next 6 games but one of those 2 games is the last game against the Vikings.

If we win 5 or 6 we are likely the #2 seed in the NFC

Winning 3 of 6 puts our chances at about 70%
Winning 2 of 6 and losing to the Vikings will put us in a heartbreaking struggle for the wildcard

Well the Packers just lost at home to the Bears. With 5 games left, the 7 and 4 Packers travel to Detroit to play a Lions team that just beat the Eagles. The WR's can't get open to catch footballs, but the CB's make up for it by not being able to cover WR's. In addition, Megatron has emerged from his slump.

Are TT's 2015 Packers capable of reaching the playoffs ?

dfosterf (7h) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.
dfosterf (8h) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.
Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.
dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left
