No one will apologize...they will just chalk it up as "Rodgers being great" and move on like this was nothing.
It is nothing.

No really.

Let me elaborate..

back in '65 when I became a fan at the age of 10..

the Packers were our nemisis then too.

Only the names were different..

Not Rodgers but Bart Starr.

and many other similarities.

We had lost the '66 and '67 championship games to them and they won 2 SBs.

We couldn't beat them in meaningful games.

Then Lombardi left for Washington and everything changed.

It took time and fortunately Landry got it done.

But it is the same now.

We have to realize we are not there yet.

But it will take.more drafting like in 2016 to do it.

And to do that we may have to lose some more in order to get another draft like 2016.

Just my feelings.

The Front Office should get up in front of the team and apologize.

You take short cuts in the off-season and this is what happens. The defense is lacking talent. They can't win their match-up's. The ones who can, aren't good enough to elevate the rest of the lesser players. Anthony Brown should not be starting. Jeff Heath should not be starting. Tyrone Crawford is not a RDE. Jaylon Smith is not ready. Kyle Wilber is playing meaningful snaps on defense against Aaron Rodgers? Waiver-wire pick-up Brian Price is starting against Green Bay?

Major failure by the Front Office, as well as any coaches who signed off on this defensive unit.

Where were you in June?

These last two games are the reality of the talent on this defense and boy do they miss Sean Lee out there. So many players out of position without him lining them up.

Both captains, both undeserving of such title, both underplaying per usual. I hope they stood up and apologized to the offense for the mess. Yeah Terrance Williams could do the same, but you score 30 you win 90% of the time. Want to be a captain? Play like one on the field and own up when you don’t.

should be last year in Dallas for both players. I believe their cap hits are manageable now.

No, it's just that I don't blame the players. I blame the coaches that put them in their positions. I've never liked for fans to blame the players. They give up their bodies for the game and we want them to apologize for a three man rush that they did not call.

Except the coaches put the players in position to make plays and don't. Scandrick missed a pick, Hitchens had a pick he missed, TWill caused a pick 6, Players missing tackles. The players are on the field and must execute, they're not doing it.

That's all we got. It's not as easy as it looks on TV.

I would rather they said " It's been fun, but, we have decided we could help this team the best, by leaving. ".

Scandrick wasn't nearly as bad as Crawford. Crawford was a major reason our defense was so bad against the Packers. Watch the game and watch how many times the Packers ran right at Crawford when he was in the game. And the valuable yards they picked up.

The Nelson TD was a perfect example. The LB's and safeties were too worried about the Packers running right at Crawford for easy years that when the Packer's ran play action they were all sucked in and Nelson was wide open for a TD.

I would certainly want the LB's and safeties to maintain their positions on that play, so they deserve blame. But it's almost damned if you do, damned if you don't because the Packers were going right at Crawford for big gains.
