Positives.

+ A couple young guys looked good.  Ryan taking a jump, Dix making impact plays and Adams starting to look like a NFL caliber WR.

Negatives

- Rodgers back to beyond bad QB play.  Staring down his guy and not reading the D.

- Special teams cost us 13 points.  TD return for 7, long return for 3 and missed FG for 3.

- Defense has no heart two weeks in a row.  Can't make a play when it matters most.

- Pass rush.  Colts can't pass protect for ****.  Our front 4 couldn't get home.  What happened to Perry, he was having a great year.

The "standard" offense continues to look predictable, stale, and overmatched by NFL teams that continue to adjust to things that work.  They don't have WRs that can consistently just "get open" and "beat their man".  Sometimes the do, but not anything close to consistently.  Haven't for the last 2 seasons, yet they simply tell the WRs to beat their man.  When they play in a spread formation they at times have more success.  But, they use it sparingly until in desperation mode.  Manbeaters are not and apparently will not be a philosophy that Mike McCarthy buys into.  Not Pennsylvania enough, I imagine.   

The defense has moments.  They've played the run well enough.  But, they continue to be exposed by NFL teams that aren't content to just do the same things over and over.  Again, the middle is exploited by a defender while they do nothing whatsoever to combat this. The Pass rush was anemic against an OL that has been a sieve all year.  

The special teams gave up points, and again, was exposed by opposing coaches that scout their opponents and adjust what they do to take advantage of that instead of sticking to the same things they've always done.

This team is 8-10 in their last 18 games.  This is what they are.  This isn't a Super Bowl contender going through a rough patch.  This isn't Miami/Washington 2 game stretch in 2010.  This isn't a team that will turn it on once they get healthy.  They don't have a 6-0 start to cushion them this year.

Maybe something clicks and they go 6-2 down the stretch.  Continuing with status quo doesn't make that seem all the likely, but I'm often wrong, and will be again.

Twenty-five continuous years of a HOF QB behind center and they'll probably only have 2 SB wins to show.  Wow.

Neither QB wins their SB without the team around them.

My statement is not an indictment of either QB. The teams 'built" around them should've been capable of winning more than one each IMO.  There's plenty of blame to go around.

Negative: The Packers got exposed as Super Bowl imposters on national TV at Lambeau against a bad and very injured Colts team.

Positive: The Packers got exposed as Super Bowl imposters on national TV at Lambeau against a bad and very injured Colts team and it is getting harder and harder to ignore the fundamental deficiencies that exist from top to bottom in the organization.

Plus

Hmm...I don't agonize over the Packers losses anymore...maybe I am getting stale just like the Mike McCarthy Packers.

I am stalling cuz no positives come to mind

 

Minus

Stale Offense: It was like Indy knew some of the Packers plays

Unprepared and unready:  MM is on the hot seat and should be

Defense

Janis looks like a goof with a perfect TD pass bouncing off his face mask

S/Ts looking worse and worse

Three road games in a row now

Third place...but we are ahead of the Bears

Janis watching a TD bounce off his chin was comical.

I have to give credit to the Colts.  With three minutes left, McStupidface would have run two dives and a sweep for negative 1 yards.  Colts went for the jugular and threw killer passes (granted, they were to the middle of our defense, so, it was a pretty safe play).  4-4, time to stop being stupid and start kicking ass.  

Dom Capers sucks
