I have to say the D did show up for the third quarter. They had some tough stops, like on that interception and whatnot. They did show me something.

Unfortunately they were exposed against the run. (Unable to stop anything up the middle) and in the first half repeatedly got burned on what seemed to be "miscommunications."

On ST, we also repeatedly shit ourselves. I think we did get ONE kickoff back to the 20, but damn. Running into the kicker? There was a lot of shit suckage there.

Thing is, we've known that Slocum is a complete loser for years, and we all know that Capers is washed up. But there's no accountability whatsoever.

That said, in fairness Mike and the offense also shit themselves repeatedly. Mike has never had this team ready to begin a season, and I can count on one hands the games where they showed up for a full four quarters.

Even Ted shit himself here. Get somebody up the middle, asshole.

Overall, the secondary played pretty well. Coverage was solid.

Jesus christ, the worst part about losing this game is now I have to suffer through 10 days of the petulant children bitching like its a personal insult to them for the packers to lose a game.

This was far from that.

As fans, it is our place to call the team out when they get their pants pulled down and spanked in front of the entire nation.

Let's take a quick look at what just happened. Two backup offensive lineman going against the best defense in the league, a NT that didn't play a snap in preseason, and some very poorly timed penalties. We faced the best team in the league at the hardest place to play in the league.

That being said, our interior defense is weak and does not match up to our best opponents' athleticism (Seahawks, '9ers). Starting guys like Guion, Hawk, and Jones will not equate to a stand out defense. If it takes us being dominated one night at the beginning of the season to show that to our coaching staff- I'm all for it. (for the record I don't see any major change coming in this category for another 6 months)

Rodgers was off his game and seemed visibly nervous. IMO, it was like he thought he had to get his passes off as soon as the ball was in his hands. That led to indecisiveness and a lack of confidence. The pace of our first drive was beautiful. Their D put a pretty good grip on our running game which led to Rodgers being even more uncomfortable (along with the loss of Bulaga). Leaving Sherrod one-on-one with any DL from Seattle was a mistake but ingame scheme shifts are difficult, especially when half the offense isn't functioning.

It was a tough game, but you can't be so negative about it. The circumstances that dictated the second half aren't unalterable ones for the season, besides the interior D personnel. I am confident we will only get better and we will play Seattle again before February. Until then, ai'm excited to watch a pissed off Aaron Rodgers make some plays.

At half time, I think we all felt pretty good where we were against the defending super bowl champions. There were mistakes made. There were missed tackles. There was a good team playing a great team on the road and the mistakes became too much to overcome. We have adjustments to make, but good news, it's week 1. We have a lot of freaking time to make those adjustments. There will be some guys that will be changing their status on this team no doubt about it.

Not just against the "champs."

9 times out of 10, when we win, we win despite the self shitting and lulls.

Well the game of football can get complicated sometimes but the fact of the matter is they ran the ball and stopped the run better than we ran the ball and stopped the run. That's the inside out philosophy of football and I don't believe it will change. So their inside beat ours. We have to accept that, move on, learn and approve. That's all we can do.

I bet Adrian Peterson, Matt Forte and Reggie Bush are licking their chops.
Once again, our D can't stop the run.
I don't mind fans "complaining" about such a horrible showing.
Heck, we are passionate about "our" team.
It's not life or death, just a few hours away from some bad things that make up REAL life for some of us.
