fukk the defense. Nothing else needs to be said. Offense took the lead twice, tied it a 3rd time, and on each ensuing drive, the defense gave the lead right back, with the last one costing us the game. I feel so bad for Rodgers...the best QB in the game the past 3 years, and nothing to show for it.
I know there were injuries, but damn man, how frustrating is it to just KNOW that the other team is gonna drive down and score when they need to? Micah Hyde...dude had the game in his hands, and let it hit the turf. That was his Al Harris-against-Seattle moment. In his hands. SMH.
We weren't even supposed to be here, but damn if it don't hurt.

Team exceeded expectations but the real work begins. The defense and special teams continue to be the problem and 2010 is an aberration at this point now. The secondary needs playmakers on the backend, the defensive line may need a new NT or two, the LBs need a couple rushers who can cover too... I think once we re-sign Shields, the Cornerbacks will be good as Hayward will be back.
Offensively... we have a running game... I don't know if we can keep Starks but I'd love if we can.. if not, Franklin will have to prove he won't fumble and can be consistent.
We may lose James Jones, we may not... he may be back cheap like in 2011. WR and TE may be looked at in the draft so don't be surprised... I doubt Finley is back.
This will be a busy offseason and I'm kind of excited about it. I just hope we have better luck with injuries.

once again Rodgers puts the team in the lead with 5 mins left and the D blows it. Hyde should of had that potential game ending INT. This was all too similar to week one...Capers needs to go, we can not run the 3-4 with these players
BTW, If Aaron Rodgers only wins one SB in his career... I'll be pissed. He needs to get back to the big game and get another ring. He's an All-Time Great...
I'm not really going to count 2013 as a lost opportunity due to it being a complete clusterfukk after November but 2011 and 2012 hurt way more than this loss.

I made this post on fb just now...
At the end of the day.. Only Giants and Niners fans can say anything to fellow #Packers fans. Atleast GB won the Super Bowl ONLY 35 months ago and beatdown the #Bears in a classic last week AND beat the defending Super Bowl champion #Ravens this year. So all in all, not a bad year considering losing the best player in the NFL for almost 2 months and still making the 'offs!

The future is bright brehs.. I have a feeling just like 2009 when we lost to Arizona

defense showed a ton of heart today tbh. dropping like flies and still almost won us the game with Hyde's pick.
let Raji walk, sign a mid range safety (not Byrd) to play across from Burnett, draft DL and ILB somewhere in the first 3 rounds and hope Datone can make the Year 2 jump that Daniels made this year. do that and get Hayward back and this can be a good defense.

True, the D held up pretty good in the 3rd quarter, and early 4th, but it all comes down to the shutdown drives, and they cost us the game. shyt sucks, cause I woulda damn near guaranteed a win against Carolina next week. If only Hyde had caught that ball.
But it all comes down to shutdown drives (the drive following a score), and we failed miserably. Burnett is trash. Dude is worthless in the passing game. If Nick Collins is playing, that TD to Vernon Davis is a pick going the other way. I'd love to get our hands on Clinton-Dix in the draft (if he declares). We need a play-making, ball-hawking safety back there probably more than anything. I think Raji is definitely gone, as we're probably gonna do everything we can to re-sign Shields.
Will be an interesting Off-Season no doubt. SMH, too early to be saying that.
