Let's vent in an organized way the number of ways the Packers blew it. Let's get it of our chest's and then move on.
Copy and paste the list and add your play, call, etc. I'll start the first two.

1. The blown field coverage. It really wasn't a well run play. A field goal wouldn't have meant much in points, confidence and inspiration and stopping the play would have done the same for the Pack as it did for Seattle.
2. Burnett's interception and going to the ground. Demonstrated playing scared with no confidence.

I've never seen anything like that before, downing an INT? I mean maybe with :30 left in teh game. That last 4th Q TD by Lynch, did it really seem like they were trying on that play?

Your #1 is the only really bad situational call I place on the coaches. A FG in that scenario is a victory for the Pack. Let them have it, but play D to prevent Tricky Pete from pulling something off. A FG doesn't hurt, but a trick play does. The odds of blocking that FG are bad. So play to defeat the things that you can. Put 4 DB's in the game and prevent the trick play. Keep AJ and Richardson on the bench. You are winning 16-0. Who cares about 16-3? It's still a 2 TD game.

Other than that strategy, this loss is on the players.

Was it Daniels that got the 15 yard unsportsmanlike penalty after the INT that got down to the 4 yard line?
Cost us 4 points. STUPID MOVE!

Why do we not have better players on this team - O Line, most of the D, etc. to maximize things when we are fortunate enough to possess the greatest QB in the history of the world? John Schneider, Jerry Jones, and a lot of others out-GM Ted Thompson.

It is quite likely that Rodgers would be crap if he hadn't fallen to GB also. There is no reason to think Alex Smith or Stafford might not have been as good as Rodgers if they had the same luxury rather than being thrown into the mix right off the bat.

If Ted had chosen to let Favre come back, we would likely not have Rodgers today either.

What does Dallas have that is better than Green Bay? Their offensive line is better, but not substantially better. They have a better #1 WR but Green Bay's receiving core is as good, or better overall. The Packers defense is as good or better. Dallas has a better running back, but also runs the ball much more. The Packers have also won much much more than the Cowboys for years now. Aaron Rodgers doesn't do it by himself.

Dallas ran more this season because they could. Our O Line mostly doesn't make that possible. Having a LOT better O Line and slightly better RB(s), at least equal WRs, a lot better at TE, significantly better LBs than the Packers, and a D Line which is at least as good as ours, I would say that qualifies as Jerry Jones doing a better job. Only at DB are we ahead IMO - other than QB of course.

The negative side of Ted Thompson is just as much the garbage be fails to recognize and get rid of as it is his failure to add enough quality players. And THAT contributes directly to the special teams problems.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Of the times we've played there, I just can't recall hearing our fans.
wpr (16-Dec) : Well done jdlax. Well done.

beast (16-Dec) : Damn, should have picked the Buccaneers over Chargers
beast (15-Dec) : Note: DuBose was just going all out for questionable location ball, probably never saw the defender. Bad idea to throw it there.
beast (15-Dec) : Yeah, DuBose head went down and he nailed the defender with the top of his helmet, full head, neck, spine potential injury there

Zero2Cool (13-Dec) : Made copy/paste super fun
Zero2Cool (13-Dec) : CTRL and DEL weren't working consistently at all.
Zero2Cool (13-Dec) : Amazon steps were annoying. I already tried it on multiple computers, did restart, updated G Hub, ...keys no work.

beast (13-Dec) : Demanding that I change the keyboard as they needed that key (h I think) and changed it out and the issue stayed.
beast (13-Dec) : I remember when I was the new hire and default tech guy for an office, one letter on a common use keyboard when out and the top person was

Zero2Cool (13-Dec) : I got a new keyboard and damn thing wasn't working half the time.
beast (13-Dec) : So he signed with the Rams, 49ers barely beat Packers, Rams beat 49ers and went on to win Super Bowl
beast (13-Dec) : Beckham already was, for the Rams... rumored Beckham wanted to sign with the Packers but Packers didn't want to match his price
