One way to look at this game is that if Jimmy Graham makes a catch than an average NFL TE would make 90% of the time the game is tied.

That's what I'm going with considering how he looks nowhere near as technically proficient as he usually is. Add in trying to play with that shit oline. Still doesn't excuse some of the decision making.
No doubt the deck's been stacked against him, and he's battled, but this is one year where his armor has shown some wear exactly in that area of decision making. They need to help him out, but he needs to dedicate himself as well.
No point in Rodgers playing the last two games. He only risks further injury.
Tschmack posted:Matthews has been nonexistent today. Cobb has been up and down and gets hurt again. Perry is hurt. Same with Bulaga. Graham has been anything but a difference maker.
Pretty safe assumption none of them will be back.
We spent money on all of them, but not Hyde or Hayward.
I hope so

Didn't appear to be any urgency at all on this drive.
And they could have kicked a fg and had 30 or so ticks left with an onside recovery. Terrible scheming no matter how hof your qb is.
They could have kicked the FG with 3 minutes left, instead they kept screwing around and Rodgers threw the INT. You know you need 2 scores, so why not get the FG out of the way? Instead they wait until there's 15 seconds left.
It's irrelevant for Green Bay's chances, but the NFL has completely taken the fun out of the onsides kick with the new rules.
we do what we do.
Poor coaching. Bye bye Philbin
Jackson has had a disappointing rookie season. Started out promising but has been struggling the second half of the year.
Who would have thought that special teams would get a penalty trying on onsides

Rodgers didn't throw an INT as much Graham dropped a TD pass. Rodgers missed a few guys today, but not that pass. Your 10 million dollar TE has to catch that.

Agreed. The new HC may need a come to Jeebus conversation on how they can help each other. Age is one thing but if the injuries really are catching up then it's time to balance out the team more. It's hard to make a call on this season since you simply don't recover from a knee injury by playing on it all season. Just doesn't happen.
first back to back losing seasons since Linsdy Infante
Looked like Rodgers pass to Graham was a poor throw/behind him which allowed the defender to contest. Still Graham has to catch it.

There is absolutely no reason to play 12 in the last two games. Heâs obviously hurt and risking a long term injury for meaningless games at the end of the year would be really dumb.

**** him! Get his ass out there to earn a small fraction of that ridiculous contract.

ALL POSITIONS up for grabs for our next #1 draft pick INCLUDING QB.

I'd like him to live long enough to do that.
Graham has to catch it, but that throw was forced. Rodgers made up his mind he was going to Graham and that was it. Then Rodgers had to throw it a little behind or Graham would have been crushed by the guy coming from the front and/or an INT anyway. Just not a good decision or throw. And speaking of bad throws... how does Rodgers, who usually throws into a bucket, miss those two(? three?) wide open long throws?

I have never once seen a game plan work that way. FG's are much easier to come by when you're down to seconds at the end of the game. TD's, not so much.
The offense and Rodgers just flat out blew it.
We ran out of players
Jeff Driscoll just won a game
