As irritated as I am AJ Green, Rondale was responsible for 2 out of the 3 turnovers.

Yeah, as much as I love Rondale. We couldn’t recover from from his turnovers, which happened so deep in our territory. The bounce off his hands for the pass is unlucky but the muffed punt was inexcusable, not because he muffed it but that he didn’t get down on it… that was Cam level right there

I see the stats, but if you watched then you must have seen GB using an effective running game to control the game and rack up a huge time-of-possession advantage. Rodgers didn't throw that much because he didn't have to Britcard. I mean, it was pretty obvious.

Not saying we lost because of our defense, because I don't think that's true. But you can believe that SF and every other team we play for the rest of the year will make a concerted effort to attack our front seven with the run game.

Indeed. But we were missing Watt, Peters, Lawrence and Zaven Collins. Allen was first game back after Covid.

I thought under the circumstances with what we had to work with they did ok. A lot of the bigger runs GB had that padded the yardage stats came in their own 3rd or half. I thought when it got to the crunch in our own half and the RZ they did pretty well vs the run. Including some big time RZ plays.

I was more disappointed in our pass defense against 3rd stringers. Especially in the RZ.

That 1st one was on Kyler in my opinion. Dumb throw there into a busy area that was never going to achieve anything. I think that was something like 3rd and 18. Where's Rondale going to go there at the LOS, bodies around him and facing our own EZ?

Best case we end up back at the LOS. Which Kyler could achieve by throwing away without the INT risk.

Dude. The screen pass was not his fault. Off target throw by Kyler. That's likes blaming all of the bad snaps on Kyler.

I am going to gamepass it today and breakdown the film. My general guideline is that if it hits the hands it is on the WR.

I just watched it again. I thought it was on Murray because I thought Moore was the checkdown option and wasn't expecting the ball thrown to him at the LOS on 3rd and 18 but your right, I think it was a screen and it did hit Moore in the hands so not on Kyler.

However, I hate the play call. Those screens very rarely work in those situations and it looked like there were some decent down field options although the all 22 isn't out yet.

So your right. Was on Moore. I don't like the call though.

Kliff did have a poor game the first 3 quarters.

Just rewatched it in slow motion and it is indeed a little high. Despite that, it absolutely should have been caught and it bounces right off his hands. In fact, the ball is thrown to the side where the play is going.

The play call is actually a good call. When the ball bounces off Moore's hand, the Cards have numbers in front and it should go for a good gain. It's wide open field in the middle where the play is shaded.

Very bad day for the rookie.

This is just how good this play was. The only guy in the middle is about to get blocked downfield. It's 4 blockers to 3 defenders.

Ugh rewatching that makes me absolutely sick. That play is an easy first down without the drop. Huge momentum swing that keeps the offense going.

Embarrassing loss.
I disagree
Im in New Jersey so it isn’t practical to go to the games.
What is embarrassing is all of the green bay fans
Shame on ALL of the fans that sold their tickets to green bay fans
Their season tickets should be revoked

As bad as our run defense was, they came up big when they had to!
They the o went 94 yards and should have won.
It was a miscommunication
I love K1 and Aj they will learn from this

This was a major problem too. I know we were behind some, but never by so much we had to abandon the run.

True but we ran what 53 plays? It was the lack of plays in the first half and being behind IMO.
This honestly felt like one of those bad Andy Reid playoff losses.

But hey Im giving a comparison to Reid so thats something!
