This is the most pathetic I have ever seen these guys... McCarthy and his play calling were awful, the refs were terrible and we just can't survive having 8 of our 22 starters out... not to mention that offensive line is in the bottom 5 of the league right now, it isnt helped at all by the fact that everyone knows we arent running the ball ever... jesus christ I am fed up with this team and really, I know it's an awful excuse but the refs always seem just looking for a way to put it in our butts

This has been going on for years. The Pat Lee opening kickoff is classic. So is the subsequent turnover. I don't know what it is, but Mike McCarthy just doesn't seem to have his guys ready. They not only start games ugly, but they start seasons ugly too.
It's not on the injuries. The defense played well enough to win easily. This is entirely on the offense.

They played well enough when Matthews was in, as soon as he left they couldnt stop anyone.. It was just sad, you can't lose to teams like the Redskins. At least we don't have to have those Super Bowl expectations anymore, hell, we don't even need playoff expectations right now. Let's go get Bill Cowher 🙂

I'm... not sure if you are serious about running.

We are a passing team. Aaron is our best playmaker. We have outstanding depth. We ran well enough today, although in the redzone you need to put the ball in Rodgers hands more. Especially in goal-line situations.

I doubt any team can overcome this many injuries to their starters for a full season, but that is not why we lost today.

Our execution on offense was pathetic. We absolutely cannot finish drives with points. Pathetic.

The worst part is they needed to own this part of the schedule because pretty soon it all goes downhill and don't for one second even be happy or stick up for this team, once we hit that rough patch this team is screwed. If we can't beat teams like Washington we certainly can't touch our second half of the schedule

Good stuff guys, but I have to disagree that this was in anyway the refs doing for us to lose. Aaron Rodgers played bad but that was a lot to do with our line. Still, Aaron did not make plays when we needed him to, and that is on him.

Some will argue that Aaron didn't make plays because of our play calling. I will have to agree with that though. The Skins consistently blitzed us giving little time for deep routes to get open. McCarthy should have adapted and called plays with closer routes, but hey we can point fingers all day. But overall our offense was HORRIBLE against a bad defense, this year is beginning to look bleak.

Thanks to pack93z for the sig!!!

There are four components to this team the Packers cannot lose.

1. Aaron Rodgers
2. Charles Woodson
3. Clay Matthews
4. Everybody else

The Packers loss No. 3 and No. 4 today. I know I said in the box that every team goes through this, but this isn't the injury bug. This is the plague. My god, they're just dropping like flies.

Not even the best O-Lines can stand up to that kind of stuff and especially not our rag tag line. Why do you think Rodgers is ducking, diving and throwing balls to the other team off his back foot all game?

Mucky Tundra (15h) : Geeze Zero get it right!😋

Zero2Cool (17h) : I guess 3 games. Whatever

Zero2Cool (17h) : Bleh, that only impacts two games.

Zero2Cool (17h) : Packers are gonna get 3rd place division schedule next year.

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Kanata, seek help! lol

beast (20h) : I was rooting for the Bears to win and hurt their draft pick status

Zero2Cool (20h) : Forgot there was even a game last night haha

TheKanataThrilla (20h) : That was terrible.

TheKanataThrilla (20h) : Watching that game in its entirety yesterday is proof positive that I am a football addict.

beast (21h) : And horrible time management multiple times... and not being able to score more than 3 points on a team with talent

beast (21h) : Realizing the Bears didn't fix it from the previous week and do the same thing, getting the game to overtime

beast (21h) : They probably are not tanking, but they've absolutely mismanagement some things, such as Vikings seeing the Packers blocked FG and realizing

Zero2Cool (22h) : Crazy of Bears to have that mindset that is

Zero2Cool (22h) : Hail Mary stop away from 5 - 2. Not sure how that flips to tanking. Crazy mindset if true

beast (22h) : I've quietly questioned if Bears are tanking on purpose... they suddenly got a lot worse with some simple concepts like 101 clock management

wpr (27-Dec) : Watching bares fans melt down over how putrid their team is, so enjoyable. It's the gift that keeps on giving.

Mucky Tundra (27-Dec) : The Seattle Seahawks defeat the Chicago Bears 6-3. Jason Myers had 6 RBIs for Seattle while Cairo Santos had 3 RBI for Chicago

beast (27-Dec) : Not nessarily, he might of been injured either way. He's playing about 50% of the games the last 4 years

Zero2Cool (26-Dec) : If they'd been more patient with him, he'd be back already. Putting him out there vs Bears caused him to tweak it and here we are.

packerfanoutwest (26-Dec) : well this is his last season with the PAck, book it

beast (26-Dec) : Sounds like no Alexander (again), I'm wondering if his time with the Packers is done

Zero2Cool (26-Dec) : Could ban beast and I still don't think anyone catches him.

Mucky Tundra (26-Dec) : Houston getting dog walked by Baltimore

packerfanoutwest (25-Dec) : Feliz Navidad!

Zero2Cool (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas!

beast (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁

beast (24-Dec) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : both games Watson missed, Packers won

Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???

Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th
