Our offense can't keep the defense off the field?

I've seen too many Rodgers haters claim that Rodgers and the offense are too blame for our losses because they can't keep the defense off the field. I just figured I'd dispell this rumor right quick with a stat from NFL.com.

Packers average time of possession: 31:43
Opponents average time of possession: 28:51

The defense is never on the field long because they give up a TD in 3 or 4 plays.

Can't blame the offense, when the D gives up points on the first drive by the opponents.

That has happended 7 times 5 TD, 2 FG.

There is time when the O has not helped the D out, but the D has been able to fail without any help.

We need a pass rush.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

The Pack have a real problem with opening drives. It seems once they go 3 and out to start the game the defense lets the other team go right down and score.

Our D has had major break downs at the end of most of the games.

Another thing i noticed is.........MANY times after our O has scored, our "special" teams gives up a big return. It's like they say to themselves "We scored, now we can relax" and BOOM! The other team runs off a 50 yard kick return.
To me, thats mental break downs.

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (8-Aug) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔

dfosterf (8-Aug) : Apparently it is too complicated for several to follow your simple instructions, but I digress
