Let's vent in an organized way the number of ways the Packers blew it. Let's get it of our chest's and then move on.
Copy and paste the list and add your play, call, etc. I'll start the first two.

1. The blown field coverage. It really wasn't a well run play. A field goal wouldn't have meant much in points, confidence and inspiration and stopping the play would have done the same for the Pack as it did for Seattle.
2. Burnett's interception and going to the ground. Demonstrated playing scared with no confidence.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

I've never seen anything like that before, downing an INT? I mean maybe with :30 left in teh game. That last 4th Q TD by Lynch, did it really seem like they were trying on that play?

Your #1 is the only really bad situational call I place on the coaches. A FG in that scenario is a victory for the Pack. Let them have it, but play D to prevent Tricky Pete from pulling something off. A FG doesn't hurt, but a trick play does. The odds of blocking that FG are bad. So play to defeat the things that you can. Put 4 DB's in the game and prevent the trick play. Keep AJ and Richardson on the bench. You are winning 16-0. Who cares about 16-3? It's still a 2 TD game.

Other than that strategy, this loss is on the players.

Was it Daniels that got the 15 yard unsportsmanlike penalty after the INT that got down to the 4 yard line?
Cost us 4 points. STUPID MOVE!

Why do we not have better players on this team - O Line, most of the D, etc. to maximize things when we are fortunate enough to possess the greatest QB in the history of the world? John Schneider, Jerry Jones, and a lot of others out-GM Ted Thompson.

If Ted had chosen to let Favre come back, we would likely not have Rodgers today either.

The Packers have also won much much more than the Cowboys for years now. Aaron Rodgers doesn't do it by himself.

Dallas ran more this season because they could. Our O Line mostly doesn't make that possible. Having a LOT better O Line and slightly better RB(s), at least equal WRs, a lot better at TE, significantly better LBs than the Packers, and a D Line which is at least as good as ours, I would say that qualifies as Jerry Jones doing a better job. Only at DB are we ahead IMO - other than QB of course.

The negative side of Ted Thompson is just as much the garbage be fails to recognize and get rid of as it is his failure to add enough quality players. And THAT contributes directly to the special teams problems.

beast (24m) : Someone pointed out, with Raiders hiring Carroll, the division games between Carroll and Jim Harbaugh are back on (who can whine more games)

beast (5h) : I'm confused, Pete Carroll and Brian Schottenheimer? When Todd Monken, Joe Brady, Kellen Moore, Kliff Kingsbury and Zac Robinson are availab

Zero2Cool (8h) : Any reason I'm catching a shot here about my intelligence?

Martha Careful (25-Jan) : thank you Mucky for sticking up for me

Martha Careful (25-Jan) : some of those people are smarter than you zero. However Pete Carroll is not

Mucky Tundra (24-Jan) : Rude!

beast (24-Jan) : Martha? 😋

Zero2Cool (24-Jan) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.

dfosterf (24-Jan) : I'm going with a combination of the two.

beast (24-Jan) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you

wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.

wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.

wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down

Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor

dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious

beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere

beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.

beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.

beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered

wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.

Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?

Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : FG to make it academic

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : and there's the dagger

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Ooooo that completion makes things VERY interesting

Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Game not over yet

beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury

beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State

beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State
