The funny thing is, after resigning myself to my fate during the past couple games, I came back to life during this one. I REALLY, REALLY wanted the Packers to win. I NEEDED them to win. They clearly outplayed the Bears. And they somehow lost anyway. It was as if the scoreboard was somehow wrong.

Regular season games against division rivals do matter, even when your team is out of it. A win would've been a nice consolation prize for this nightmare season. The loss makes it a total nightmare. Now the Packers end the season against the 0-15 Lions. It's mighty hard to get excited about that one.

If Mike McCarthy is fired at the end of next season, it won't be because of injuries, it won't be because of turnovers, it won't be because of missed field goals. It will be because he plays not to lose.

They were plenty aggressive, played with a desperation. They executed well for the most part on O.

MM is not the reason we lost this game.

In that situation, you THINK your FG kicker can make the kick.
But this season, so little has gone right, what can go wrong, does.

It doesn't help that Favre can't beat the Niners, Raiders, and Seattle either.

Greg.. this is the calmest game I have watched all season.. I was even keeled till late.. then the emotions got up and I became pissed again.. this 08 team is trimming years off my life.. :lol:

We just can't figure out a way to seal a win... I fear the 0-15 Lions.. :lol:

The worst part is going to be listening to the MM press conf.


We have some things to work on, we will do that and come out Sunday looking for a win.

Fire McCarthy. PLEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAASSSSSSSEEEEEEE

In all these years I've never seen a coach turn into such a pansy in the 4th quarter 4 WEEKS IN A ROW

We ran the most CONSERVATIVE plays POSSIBLE THROUGHOUT the 4th quarter on offense AGAIN. Thanks to the horsecaller/late hit, we had plenty of time to go for the touchdown. How the hell is a kick in -11 degree wind chills in Chicago from 38 yards out against a team who absolutely has to block it for dear life a good idea? I knew it wasn't going in the moment we ran the ball on 3rd down. I bet you one playaction in the final 2 minutes would have won the game.

We had a chances to blow the game open after the int. too. We go backwards instead.

The defensive playcalling doesn't look any better. How many completed passes over all of about 6 yards did the bears have all game? So logically at the end of the game and in overtime we should just drop back and give them the dumpoffs and the running plays eh?

It's just incredible how a team this talented can execute so well and then all because of 2 pansies running the team, we blow it every time.

I mean I wouldn't be this upset if this happened in one week, or even two weeks. But you would think when this happens every single damn week, that our coach would learn SOMETHING. But he DOESN'T! And when you go this long without learning one damn thing, you deserve to get fired. I'm going all out rooting for the Lions next week just to see his fat face when he blows it again.

The season was already over. In the waning moments, put the ball in Rodgers' hand and let him make a play. Game after game, McCarthy tries to run out the clock and kick a field goal, instead of letting the best red-zone QB in the league toss one into the end zone. It shows an unconscionable lack of confidence in a QB who's given him no reason not to be confident -- it's a slap in the face, really.

Also, someone please explain to me why we're tossing long bombs early in the game on first downs and then handing off on thirds-and-long.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
