Pettine, King, Aaron Jones, Linsley, Preston Smith, Kirksey, Lowry....expecting all of these guys to be gone this offseason. Maybe they find a way to keep one of Jones/Linsley somehow. That would be nice. Rest can go without a moments notice

Might not be much of a choice depending on where the cap is set.  The team is going to need a very good draft class to fill some holes along the DL, CB, EDGE, OL.   Some premium positions to be filled and picking at best 29th

I seriously gave gettin* a TD on 4th there like a 5-10 chance of success...

Even if you don't get the TD, you've got them backed inside their own 10 and the defense still needs a stop.  The only thing is that was LaFleur betting on the defense to make a stop to give Rodgers a chance to win.  It was a bad bet.  Period.

Yep, people saying he wouldn't make an impact were just being in denial.  That position you're not cutting or running full speed. Vea's job was just collapsing the pocket and flushing Rodgers. He made an impact in the pass and ground game.

THANK you. This is what I was looking for other GB pack fans were in denial all week. I was trying to let them know in the General forum, ah well. Good luck to you guys next season, a rematch is likely

If Davante caught that TD in first half and we didn't go for that 2 point conversion... even with the fukkery at end of first half... that's probably a 31-31 game going into OT.

Its just amazing how we don't get the bounces needed in the NFCCG and of course the blatant holding calls that didn't get called.

But the game was lost when we got no points off of both Jaire's INTs.

FG makes it a 5 point game.   GB needs a stop and then to drive for a TD.  Likely with at best 1 timeout and 1:45 seconds left.  Probably about 70 yards for a TD

Go for the TD 

Get it and convert the 2pt.   tie game and have to stop TB 

Miss the 2 pt.   2 point game and the above scenario is the same with needing a stop and having to go for a FG with 1:45 seconds and 1 timeout.

Miss the TD.   Need a stop and then the TD drive + the 2 pt conversion.

 

 

I don't see the upside of going for the FG vs trying for the TD
 

 

Because there isn't one.  Not a realistic one.  Coach fails by MLF and Pettine.  We needed a perfect team to beat TB.  That front is too big/fast for our Oline and we knew it going in.

Yep. Said all week the defense that holds teams to FG's in the red zone vs TD's is what could decide this. GB ended up being the team settling for FG's twice inside the 10. Can't have that, especially when you know the defense isn't playing well

They had to find a way to get Td's there and they simply couldn't execute
