Lockers get cleaned out as Green Bay’s pending free agents head into uncertain futures

Too bad they couldn't prove it on the scoreboard, where it counts.

of course they do, I wouldn't expect otherwise. Just goes to prove my point I have been making all along. You can have the best team I want the winning team.

Remember this?

“The fact is, [the Giants] didn’t beat us; we beat ourselves. We need to play our best ball when it counts. This year, I expect us to be right back where we should be.” - Clay Matthews III after 2011 season ender against Giants.

“We were the better team today and we played well enough to win and we can’t blame anybody but ourselves,” - Aaron Rodgers after 2014 season ender against Seahawks.

Guess this team doesn't learn from its mistakes too well.

I wouldn't want players on this team that didn't believe they were better when they see and know the mistakes they made themselves that cost the game.

I see it as a difference between losing and getting beat. If you play your best and still end up on the losing end because the other team was better that is getting beat. When you screw up enough to lose, you didn't win because YOU LOST

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

The sad thing is that the number of times we find a way to lose a game we should have won far outnumbers the games we had no right to win, but found a way to pull it out. The only game where Mike McCarthy coached that I felt that way was the Dallas game last season when Flynn made that improbable comeback which is in large part to extreme self-shitting by the Cowboys.

So I guess the defending Super Bowl Champions, the #1 seed and the team that already beat you once, wasn't the better team? What about them self shitting I mean seriously they committed 5 turnovers and still found a way to win.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

This is not about rankings going in.

Wow....we must be the best team in football, that can't seem to follow through and consistently win.
I'm getting tired of the excuses.
It seems to be happening every year.
"We are great, but can't seem to win"
I guess they arn't as good as they think.
I would have rather seen them get blown out then to control the game, and choke it all away in the last 5 minutes.
