Face the FACTS, The Packers Defense just SUCKS . [tt]

Not even accounting for the woeful performance the offense has put up the first 5 weeks of the season as a contributing factor, I'm not sure what facts you're referring to, the facts I have seem to imply they're average.

Thank Ted Thompson for this team's depth.

Seems we are returning to the defense we had just a few years back, where we get a lead, and all our D has to do is make ONE stop and we win, and they choke it away.
Rodgers even got them a 6 point lead, meaning Atlanta needed to score a TD and not a FG to win, and STILL our defense blew it.
We have too many starters out on D to beat ANY decent team.

Good teams win without lucky fumbles or passes deflected into the defender's hands.

You are a nice and kind person.

I'm just giving you shit, man. You know I love you. You're like that creepy uncle who touches me in an inappropriate manner but gives me candy afterward to make up for it.
