We've all noticed this too. They are playing a game, but look like they are waiting for 5 PM to punch out.

The difference is that the Packers are finding new and exciting (See: dumb) ways to lose and Rodgers is only playing above average and not well enough to bail the rest of the team out.

Cobb is really effected by his role on the team. He's been injured and ineffective. I don't know if he feels confident he can help the team right now. It's a concerning situation for him and the team.

I think this sorta needs to be broken up into two different thoughts...
1) The team not having fun
2) Cobb, himself, not having fun

The team probably isn't having fun, because even if they execute at 100% right now, they only have the horses to barely make the playoffs (and they're probably not going to execute at 100%)...

Cobb, himself, probably isn't having fun because his body looks like it's done... and it seems like he was demoted from #2 WR to #4 WR behind MVS and Allison... so of course he's not having fun being placed behind a rookie! Especially in a contract year (in which he was probably expecting to cash in) and now he'll get a low veteran contract at best.

I'm thinking Cobb not having fun might say more about his situation (because there are SO MANY downers) than the team situation... as Cobb is probably see that he's been demoted, he's not going to be back next year (ala Haha) and he's not going to be able to cash in big either because of the down (two) year(s).

It’s hard to have fun when you are getting your butt handed to you every week.
Winning is fun. Losing isn’t.
Not contributing makes it even less fun.

My thoughts exactly. This seems much more about Cobb's situation than anything else.
