--Burnett is never going to be better than an average safety
--Perry makes plays when given snaps, but there are few snaps in replacing Peppers & CM
--Our new "penetrating" DL scheme worked at times, but backfires when the penetrater does not make the tackle (leaves gaps to run through)
Agree with all 3 of those statements above.
- Ha HA is a baller
- Lacy needs to stop having concussions or we'll be needing a new RB by 2015
- Aaron Rodgers needs to be a LOT better

You wouldn't understand why he's such a hateable douchebag.
The 49ers and Seahawks have one consistent theme - exceptional LB play and very underrated DL and DEs that can rush the passer.
GB has Clay Matthews. That's it. There is not one difference maker other than him. Seattle and SF have 3-4 studs in their front seven and the remaining guys are very solid.
Last night it's very possible that other than Peppers and CMIII and maybe Daniels I'm not sure that their remaining four would even start for other teams much less make an impact.

I hope the NFL learned not to put the Packers on the Thursday night opener.

When a game performance resembles a toilet bowl, everything looks like turds.

Sherman learned after the game what we already figured out during the game - they avoided him.
What I learned- 9/5 Big Show WSSP 4PM, Leroy Butler said "they have to play HaHa and put Morgan Burnett on the bench. They have to. But that's not the way they do it in GB."
IOW, they stick with players, and in a certain way it's admirable, and the player has to epic fail before they replace them. When it comes to safety play, I'm listening to Leroy Butler.
Hawk and Jones have been epic failures for 3 years. Please, TT, change the paradigm. Hawk was resigned- career goes to chit. Jones was resigned- career goes to chit. Burnett was resigned- career goes to chit. TT is ultimately responsible. But you also have to look at the position coaches and wonder what the hell they see in these guys.
We have seen enough of guys like Hawk and Jones and even Burnett to know it's time for someone else to have a shot
We were officially -1 in the turnover differential, however Daniels penalty on the punt is really a turnover since it gave the ball back to the Seahawks. Visiting teams in general only have a 13% chance of winning when being -2 TO differential. Given Seattle home field advantage, being -2 probably results in 0% of winning.
In the words of Mae West, "Between two evils, I pick the one I've never tried before."
Day 2. The teeth gnashing continues.
I learned the defense needs 11 players and not ten. What horrible coaching.
Relax folks. It's all about fundamentals and coaching - things that are easy to correct. I know this because ...because MM said so! And I have learned to believe in MM. Again, Packers 40 +, Jets 0. I am pumped for next weekend.
Watched the game again. Couple of thoughts. I don't see how GB can start over Burnett over Ha Ha and Jones over Lattimore.
The new smaller quicker line is supposed to penetrate and alter gaps.Force the RB to change direction. Then fill gaps with the ILB and safety help. For this to work the ILBs need to attack. Hawk and Jones don't do this well. They are way to hesitant. You can get away with Hawk on the field if the other ILB is filling a gap. Fast. That guy isn't Jones. Those two play the same read and wait style. Lattimore is a coverage liability but at least he can attack the line.
Regarding Burnett. He is a huge run support liability. For the same reasons. No t an attack guy. I also pin as much of the responsibility of the 10 man fiasco on him as I do the coaches. You can't be a 5 year starter at S playing deep middle and not realize Hayward isn't in front of you. You call TO
Just MHO

I deleted the game. Can't watch that train wreck
Something needs to be done......Ka-Bong said it best...
"This is not a 1 game rant." - El-Ka-Bong
Burnett, Hawk, Jones they all need to be benched. Burnett's lack of run support is most surprising to me when Hyde & Ha Ha are on the field.
A shake-up needs to happen, this "stay the course" bull$hit has to stop beginning with game #2.
Talk about wasting a HOF QB's prime years. Good lord

Agree with it all. It is sooo frustrating to see these bums get pass after pass for their crappy play. Burnett is a great example of the way we go about business. The ONLY reason he starts now is because he was a high draft pick......what other reason could there be, he does NOTHING. Hawk and Brad Jones, also two guys who haven't ever done jack. Make the changes MM!!

Lack of a halfway decent defense happened.
We learned that the Packers simply aren't as good as we all thought they were and a lot Packers fans are a bunch of knee-jerking, whiney morons.

Others here have said it best...."this is not a 1 game rant"
I know it was easy to pile on guys like MD Jennings but when you watched games last year Burnett was late to react and out of position on a routine basis. Not sure much has changed this year. In training camp and preseason Hyde and Ha Ha and Richardson looked and played better.
I have no idea what happened to him but Burnett probably needs to be replaced at some point as well. Hyde has earned his spot and while Clinton Dix is a little raw he looks like a safety out there

Its approaching a 3 year rant for me. When Picket sucked for 1 year, they did something about it. Why do Hawk, Jones, Raji and Burnett get a pass year after year?
Everyone knows the middle of the D is pathetic. What could it hurt to try the guys behind them on the roster?
Also, its time to start questioning TT. Whme Rodgers was out we were a mediocre team at best. Failed top round picks year after year is catching up to us. He does better than anyone in the late rounds and rfa's, but you have to hit higher than 20% on 1 through 3. Hopefully this class reverses the trend.
I guess the rant will have to continue a few more years since TT just signed an extension.

That dude is Christian Kirksey. Drafted by the Browns. Somehow put on the Titans as a 1'2" LB on Madden 2015.
Even at 1'2", IC thinks he's going to be a good one
Ron Wolf didn't exactly hit on a lot of early picks either
He made his money in rounds 3-7 think Henderson and Tauscher and Freeman and Driver and McKenzie and Timmerman and others

And Reggie White and Sean Jones and Eugene Roninson and TOG.
And Santana Dotson and Gilbert Brown
And Kieth Jackson
And Bruce Wilkerson and Frank Winters
The guy who studied Ron Wolf and learned his lessons best was John Schneider. His free agents and trades include Marshawn Lynch, Percy Harvin, Michael Baldwin, Cliff Avril, Doug Baldwin and Jermaine Kearse. Not sure if he made the Lynch trade... and I won't go into his drafting because that will definitely depress us.
Time for you to jump on to the Seahawks Bandwagon, Obviously they are the best.

We know, you love the Packers. We know you're the best fan here. We get it.
