CB’s outside of Diggs got completely exposed. I was waiting for when it would happen. Leave it up to Rodgers to exploit it. Anthony Brown has always been trash. Can’t believe he’s been a starter here for this long. And bland got exposed badly yesterday. They should’ve played more zone yesterday and adjusted. Horrible game plan from Dan Quinn. Going forward expect team to go after Brown and Bland nonstop.

ps before the trade deadline I said our biggest need is actually CB. Too bad we didn’t pull the trigger.

It becomes easier to attack your corners when you cannot stop the run. Once you start committing more people in the box, any good QB will beat man coverage on the outside.

I mean brown got concussed early. Joseph isn’t that good I’d agree but the secondary also wasn’t 100% and they are playing Rodgers
Rodgers was trash pretty much all season. Leave it to the cowboys to make a bust WR to look like Randy Moss. Lol this team has been talking about “ elite def” and signing Odell Beckham blah blah. My goodness what a circus organization.

That’s the thing GB hasn’t done that to anyone else all season this was a 3-6 football team with no weapons outside of Aaron Jones LMAO.

Cowboys defense got totally gashed on the ground, this led to big passing plays down the field. This is a huge issue moving forward, not sure if it can get fixed this yr.

Rodgers left a lot of other big plays on the field and the Fox crew did a good job highlighting it. Lazard was open all night long but Rodgers didn’t see it

the defense is not elite. It’s good. I’ve been saying this all year. 2 things can be true tho- the defense not being elite and still needing help at wr

Give Rodgers time to set his feet and throw, he'll connect way more times than not.

We left our corners on islands and Rodgers didn't have pressure in his face most passing plays.

I like diggs but I'm not sure he's there yet with his confidence as a cornerback. He says he models himself after deion but deion wanted the challenge of a WR who's capable of doing damage. We didn't know Watson would do what he did but the moment he scores 2 tds, diggs should have went to Quinn and tell him let me shadow him. He shouldn't have scored that 3rd. This could be on Quinn also. Hopefully diggs makes that jump and becomes the cornerback we need him to be. I've always been a non fan of Anthony Brown. He never looks back for the ball and is always getting torched due to that mindset.

Not really. The big plays down the field were a result of A Brown as usual and then inexperience with Bland and Joseph on the other two TD passes. I am pretty sure Joseph should have jammed Watson off the line on the short TD and Bland got totally turned around on the long one. That's CB's 4 and 5 that cost us the game there!

Granted nobody saw Watson coming, but after the second TD, a switch should have been made......... but odds are Rodgers just turns his attention to someone else. He was going after our weak links and that wouldn't have changed.
