Excuses are a reason for not facing the truth. We lived by our offense and died by our offense.

Personally I am very disappointed in the WAY this team lost, not BECAUSE they lost. The one thing above all that disturbed me was the lack of fundamentals.

A successful team CANNOT miss tackles that lead to points the other way! After all this talk about them not being a team that beats themselves - well THEY DID!

Dropping key passes that keep drives alive and/or score points is unacceptable. Did they have their hands covered in grease?

Yet another thing I cannot stand is FUMBLING THE DAMN BALL! HOW CAN AN OFFENSE FUMBLE 3 TIMES IN ONE GAME?! That alone is alarming. Yes there are some moments where shit just happens, but this was pathetic.

When you simply get outplayed, it is hard to be overly upset about a loss. HOWEVER when you lose a game because these guys are throwing the fundamentals out the window, it is going to piss people off.

Here's some conspiratorial shit from FBI foia files  regarding the Lombardi era Packers.
I do think the conspiratorial shit, to the degree that it may or may not be true, generally favors our team. They seem to have a lot of Jesuit mojo, imo.

Yes. We did.

We lost because when our O can't win a game, our D can't win either.

The lowest our O scored in our 15 wins was 24 points. We scored over 40 points six times this year, which is insane. But we allowed over 30 points four times. That's pretty bad.

I just think our defense had an enourmous case of tiny nut syndrome all year. I expect them to come back very hungry next year. On offense, I think we are good to go even if Driver and Clifton retire. But next year McCarthy has to get more inventive with Cobb, but that weapon was underutilized. We have all the pieces in place to be very good for the long haul, but we lost this game by a team that was more hungry than we were.

And much as I like to hammer on the OL, I think they didn't have a particularly bad game.

Newhouse > Cliffy. I was impressed by Newhouse. Cliffy got beaten by fast dudes.

Our OL looks good. I still want to see OL drafted for depth as 🇦🇷 is our #1 asset.

Losing doesn't bother me much, losing because the team beat themselves does. I'd rather the Packers have played their A game and just came up short than them having eight drops and three turnovers.

In fact, I probably would have been thrilled to have had the privilege of watching such a game. But to watch my team play such uninspired, sloppy football in all phases of the game, that is what I found so hard to take.

The frustration that overflowed in me yesterday was more directed at other fans than at the team, though. Other than the lousy offensive performance, this team was pretty much what they had been all year. After all the months of bucking heads with other fans, it kind of just boiled over last night.

Well said.

Yeah, first team to win 15+ games and go 1 and out and the loss at home but honestly, its not like we're the Vikings or something that had a limited window. Who's old, Chuck and Driver? We're still a fairly young team with a QB in his prime. We'll be back.

The thing that is killing me right now is having to admit that Eli Manning is the real deal, I have been ragging on him for so many years, but he looked like a MVP out there.



MANY qbs have looked like MVPs against our defense this season. Doesn't mean anything.
