Late in games, Packers' defense can't get off the field

The Packers' four losses have had one thing in common: In the fourth quarter, the opposing team has had a long, sustained drive that Green Bay's defense couldn't stop. In Week One, the 49ers got the ball at their own 35-yard line with 4:52 to play and proceeded to run 11 plays, gain 50 yards,...

That is so frustrating to watch. They can't say it is because they are tired. The Packers defense was hardly on the field against Philly. Plus they rotate guys in all the time.

Guys are just flat out not in position.

Another things in common in all of the Packers losses.

The offense struggled...

As shocking as it is... every Packers loss isn't completely and totally on the Packers defense.

Against the 49ers the Packers offense struggled. The RBs weren't able to pick up 50 yards on the ground. The OL struggled protecting those behind them and Rodgers made less than 57% of his passes.

Against the Bengals, the Packers defense might of been the best Packers unit getting 4 turnovers and other than giving up two long drives did a great job where as Special Teams and Offense struggled turning over the ball a lot and basically put the Bengals in position to easily score more points than the defense did.

Against the Bears, the OL couldn't protect Rodgers, he got injured and the vet back-up looked very rusty and struggled a lot espically with throwing anywhere near the very tall DE Peppers.

Against the Eagles the offense couldn't finish until it was too late.
