This isn't about "lulls" or not showing up for parts of the game. Something is systemically wrong with this passing game. The run game and even screens are working yet the receivers still can't get open or catch, and Aaron Rodgers is way off target.

77 yards in a game, struggling to break 50% completion % ... this is more than a lull.

These WRs did not just SUDDENLY all stop getting open at the same time. They're no different than they were when we were undefeated.

This has something to do with Rodgers. As he goes, so goes this team. Unless they bench him of course.

Vice Ketchman had an interesting point this week about firing coaches. It can send a message that you acknowledge the problem was their fault, not the players.

I see lots of execution errors, dropped balls, errant throws. AL Michaels mentioned he'd never seen so many dropped balls in a pregame.

I'm not really commenting on the coaching culpability one way or the other, but clearly a lot HAS to fall on the player's shoulders.

McCarthy can say whatever he wants in a press conference but until he actually changes something more substantial than which assistant coach is in the press box it means he thinks everything is fine. The offense was stale and weak back when we played SF and has been sub par almost every week since then but they've done nothing new. This isn't going to get fixed because Mike will never let go of his staff no matter how bad they are until they fail for several years in a row.

The offense has seriously looks like they fired everyone and brought Bob Sanders in to coordinate and he just said every play WRs just run out there and try to get open, Aaron run around no matter how clean the pocket is and find someone to throw to.

Everybody gets pissed at me when I say that we are wasting the career of Aaron Rodgers because we haven't supplied him the offensive talent to really excel. But what does he have to throw to this year. Dcoordinators take Cobb right out of the game, and then Rodgers is left with a lot of mediocrity in the young players and a washed up James Jones.

It's impossible but I would love to be able to see Bill Belichick or Bruce Arians coaching the Packers for one game. Just to see what happens...

I really want Mike McCarthy fired, I think he is a great playcaller when he has plenty of talent but he can't motivate the team, he can't make his offense play to their best level and he can't adjust to what he has.

Who would you think would be a great coach for the Packers right now that is available?

I think Davante Adams ankle is still bothering him and he's not going 100%. Give his snaps to Ty Montgomery (who hopefully is healthy, offense hasn't been the same without him) and Jeff Janis.

Rodgers just said the interception was on time, but Davante ran into the Safety and Porter got a "gift interception there". Of course, it wasn't your fault Aaron, thank you for clearing that up.

Wait, hold the show! Coach is mad as hell and he IS going to keep taking it!!

Davante is pressing too much. He's nervous, because he feels like, as SOON as he does something wrong, Aaron's gonna be throwing it in his face. I think RR's a little bit like that too.

Aaron's not much of a leader of men in that regard.

Getting Montgomery back will help, he's their most explosive option.
