The Packers cannot, at all, handle these injuries

This is the most pathetic I have ever seen these guys... McCarthy and his play calling were awful, the refs were terrible and we just can't survive having 8 of our 22 starters out... not to mention that offensive line is in the bottom 5 of the league right now, it isnt helped at all by the fact that everyone knows we arent running the ball ever... jesus christ I am fed up with this team and really, I know it's an awful excuse but the refs always seem just looking for a way to put it in our butts

This has been going on for years. The Pat Lee opening kickoff is classic. So is the subsequent turnover. I don't know what it is, but Mike McCarthy just doesn't seem to have his guys ready. They not only start games ugly, but they start seasons ugly too.
It's not on the injuries. The defense played well enough to win easily. This is entirely on the offense.

They played well enough when Matthews was in, as soon as he left they couldnt stop anyone.. It was just sad, you can't lose to teams like the Redskins. At least we don't have to have those Super Bowl expectations anymore, hell, we don't even need playoff expectations right now. Let's go get Bill Cowher 🙂

I'm... not sure if you are serious about running.

We are a passing team. Aaron is our best playmaker. We have outstanding depth. We ran well enough today, although in the redzone you need to put the ball in Rodgers hands more. Especially in goal-line situations.

I doubt any team can overcome this many injuries to their starters for a full season, but that is not why we lost today.

Our execution on offense was pathetic. We absolutely cannot finish drives with points. Pathetic.

The worst part is they needed to own this part of the schedule because pretty soon it all goes downhill and don't for one second even be happy or stick up for this team, once we hit that rough patch this team is screwed. If we can't beat teams like Washington we certainly can't touch our second half of the schedule

Good stuff guys, but I have to disagree that this was in anyway the refs doing for us to lose. Aaron Rodgers played bad but that was a lot to do with our line. Still, Aaron did not make plays when we needed him to, and that is on him.

Some will argue that Aaron didn't make plays because of our play calling. I will have to agree with that though. The Skins consistently blitzed us giving little time for deep routes to get open. McCarthy should have adapted and called plays with closer routes, but hey we can point fingers all day. But overall our offense was HORRIBLE against a bad defense, this year is beginning to look bleak.

Thanks to pack93z for the sig!!!

There are four components to this team the Packers cannot lose.

1. Aaron Rodgers
2. Charles Woodson
3. Clay Matthews
4. Everybody else

The Packers loss No. 3 and No. 4 today. I know I said in the box that every team goes through this, but this isn't the injury bug. This is the plague. My god, they're just dropping like flies.

Not even the best O-Lines can stand up to that kind of stuff and especially not our rag tag line. Why do you think Rodgers is ducking, diving and throwing balls to the other team off his back foot all game?

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.

Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though

TheKanataThrilla (3-May) : Packers decline 5th year option for Stokes

Mucky Tundra (3-May) : @ProFootballTalk Jaylen Warren: Steelers' special teams coach has discussed Justin Fields returning kicks.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!

packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol
