Giants fans:
We SHOULD have won.
We also caught some breaks when Rodgers missed some open guys
Also, once again we had some SHOULD HAVE BEEN interceptions (interpreted this one as in our QB threw some that the other guys should have caught)
Our D-backs need to make those plays

Yes, we need to play better especially if we have postseason aspirations.
Sometimes we lose sight of the fact that there's not a ton of talent difference between teams in the NFL and it comes down to execution and random chance. Our DBs drop a lot of balls. It always seems like other teams' DBs drop two very watchable INTs a game as well. We need to execute better but we're always going to have dropped balls and penalties and bad bounces.

But yeah it sure would be nice to just dominate a team sometime, anytime. It's been a long while.

McCarthy once again doesn't have this offense anywhere near ready to go while the defense is clicking with rookies and undrafted/late round guys everywhere.

Yeah that was a weird game, in the terms of the OL dominating the DL in pass rush... but the offense wasn't able to do more with it.

I was underwhelmed in the second half, but to me things didn't seem nearly as terrible as they were earlier in the season. Which isn't something to be bragging about, but I feel like we moved in the right direction. Picks were rough but they weren't horrible ones. One bounced off a WR's hands IIRC. What I did like seeing was CROSSING ROUTES and other plays over the middle, which were seemingly ripped out of the playbook earlier in the season.

So yeah, underwhelming and in need of a lot more improvement but I wouldn't call it terrible.

Aaron Rodgers has 9 TDs this season... all 9 in the first half of the game.
First half Rodgers QB rating is: 101.3
Second half Rodgers QB rating is: 69.8

The Packers offense need to work better in the second half, instead relying on the defense to not screw up.

The offense has been unstoppable the last 2 games when they throw in rhythm and use the middle of the field.

I'm still on board with trading Rodgers to Cleveland for the next 4 #1's. Rodgers has become a diva as was predicted and hell now he can't even hit a broadside of a barn. Cleveland has lost 5qbs in 5 games so they might be very desperate lol.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)
