Aaron Rodgers: We won't win in playoffs the way we played tonight

The Packers got a win against the Panthers on Sunday night, but quarterback Aaron Rodgers wasn't doing too much celebrating once it was in the books. Rodgers called it "one of those disappointing wins' in an interview with NFL Network after the final whistle of the 24-16 win over the Panthers. The Packers led 21-3 [more]

Ok did some quick research and this is what I came up with. The Green Bay Packers have scored 174 points in the 2nd half and gave up 196. The Packers have been outscored in 10 of 14 games. They have scored 10 or less in 6 games. We keep blaming the defense but what the hell happens to the offense in the 2nd half? Do we have another coach that can't stomp on a throat or do we start looking at different reasons? If you take out the 1st Lions game in which we outscored them by 18 points that really changes the views to even worse as that was are largest output of 25 points. To be honest I would say this defense is doing a pretty good job. I am curious about time of possession in the 2nd half. We have to find a way to score points in the 2nd half.

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

I sure don't like the way the 2nd half looked last night.
Rather it happened now than in the playoffs.
Ugly win is still a win.
I think The Packers are being out coached after the 1st half.
Other teams make adjustments that seem to shut down what The Packers want to do, and The Packers can't answer.
Aaron Jones had a monster game, the run game will be important the next 3 weeks.

I find myself yelling at the defense the whole time, then I look up in the 2nd half and they have given up 10 points.

Big test coming up, Packers still have time to put it all together.
I think yhey will.
Stay healthy and let's see what happens.

MERRY CHRISTMAS PACKER FANS!

It seems the other steams' defenses make adjustments, and the Packers can't counter those adjustments.

I have to believe that the Packers offense goes into hibernation in the second half by design.
As long as they are ahead they do just enough to hang on for a win and not show future opponents all the tools that they have in the box.
I watched the second half this morning and I couldn't come up with any other explanation for such conservative play calling on offense.
I think that our second year head coach is pretty foxy.

Any chance that they are going vanilla or trying new plays to minimize tape on their best plays? Works for me in Madden when I have the lead 🙂

Yesterday at half Matt told them it was 0-0 again. "All gas." They need to rev it up. It seems coasting has become part of their mentality.

Too many times I was annoyed with players saying they beat themselves and making excuses for poor play. Aaron flat out says they won't win in the playoffs if they play like this. He's right. And at least he and Matt publicly acknowledged this. That's a good thing!

Look, the QB knows it and so does the coaching staff and other players. That's a good thing! Let's see what adjustments are made next game.

Packers won against a very resilient team that almost beat Saints and Chiefs. It's not like this was the Jets.

Zero2Cool (11h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (15h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (15h) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16h) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (17h) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (17h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (17h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (17h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (19h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (19h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (19h) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?
