It’s all true that: Lacy [especially early in season]/run game not going well; OL not playing well; a DC’s figuring out a route tree; receivers not getting separation; The D being a sieve; Aaron Rodgers holding the ball too long; Aaron Rodgers having a bad day; etc. But, these things only happen occasionally and happen occasionally to EVERY good team EVERY year. So all of this is much ado about nothing; we’re 6-2 and have only revealed a sliver of the O and D game plans to date. The team is playing hard and we’ve only lost one guy [Nelson]; RRodgers, DJones, Perry, Raji all improved and most importantly Randall, Hayward, Rollins, Banjo, Goodson have all stepped up at least neutralizing, and I believe improving against the loss of 2014-Tramon and House. We lead the NFC and if no key IR injuries hit, we will be in SB.
GB fans go nuts when Packers lose; and this 6-2 panic is insanity on steroids. The subconscious realization that Aaron Rodgers forgot in last 2.75 games how to read and react to a blitz and presently possesses the confidence and accuracy of Anthony Dilwig; it just being expressed as the occasional problems listed above. The turn-around will be as sudden as Dilwig giving way to an MVP QB and then we’re going to SB.
