The team relaxed and that is why we lost. We play Prevent Defense and Offense.

Well at least Mike Sherman is off the hook for the worst debacle in Packers history! On the drive for their first touchdown when they gave up 3rd and forever, I should have quit watching then.

I guess that would've been true if just 1 out of 5 things would've gone our way.

Until finally, we have to overcome enormous odds just to maintain. Then we FAIL.

We do this routinely, but everyone says it's OK, because usually we pull it out by a hair.

Good post nyrpack...was going to comment on the same. So let's add Morgan Burnett to the people to fire. Oh wait, McCarthy coached him to take a knee there. FIRE HIM, FIRE EVERYONE! It's really easy to win the SB each year, and defeat one of the best defenses in history. Incompetent packers. Shit can EVERYONE!

16-0 never felt like a big lead, especially when it became 16-7. But we seemed to be playing like we were up by a lot more. I felt like the Packers were running down the clock in the 3rd quarter even, running the play clock down on every play. I am not saying that is a bad strategy on the road against an elite team but I felt like it took the wind out of the offense and defense to know you are just playing not to lose.

That is why I respect guys like Belichek that always go for the throat but maybe this has taught this coaching staff a lesson - a hard one and untimely one but nevertheless a lesson about playing to win versus playing not to lose.

Edit: Did that 3-man rush thing on 3rd and 15 really happen..................

Again, this isn't a one time deal.

Maybe something good will come from this and that being the Packers play balls out next season and don't worry about running up the score.
