Super Bowl losers have a tendency to suck the next year. I want to clarify that I'm largely agreeing with you here. These guys watching two weeks of football while recovering physically should build that hunger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packerstk7 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 (edited) It’s really hard to take because this game was lost on a handful of mistakes in an otherwise well played game. -Bad spot on 4th down sneak - 2 dropped INT -3 bad throws - Missed kick - Missed delay of game on SF touchdown (questionable, snaps often happen right after the play clock hits 0).

But as that old Kenny Rogers song goes....You got to know when to hold them, know when to fold them". Given that it was first down, plenty of time remaining in the game and we had two time outs, it was time to fold and go to the next play. Jones should have released once love cleared the pocket. Staying in did nothing and he could have been an easy dumpnoff with open field ahead of him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltarich87 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Packers gonna be a hot and trendy team the media slobbers over during the offseason, so now this young squad has to show they can handle higher expectations placed upon them. Nobody beyond the most optimistic Packers fan came into the season expecting them to 1. Make the playoffs, 2. Be a few plays away from being in the NFCCG. 2024, they're gonna be looked at as a team to enter the NFC elite and to usurp Detroit as the North champions Right now it feels very 2009'ish again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe me, I know every win and loss. Living out here I have plenty of coworkers who are 9ers fans and we remind each other every Monday after. LaFluer still has been owned by his mentor, especially when it counts but this was the beginning of the Love era. We had them right where we wanted and came up short in the end. Back to the drawing board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also there was a pretty obvious intentional grounding against Purdy that went uncalled. Uncalled facemask on Aaron Jones along the sidelines. Seemed like a lot of questionable spotting of the ball by officials. Just a horribly frustrating night in what was a very winnable game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most disturbing part about the IG was the officials huddled and talked it over. I can only assume the conversation went something like, "it was clearly intentional grounding but the script says 49ers win so let it go!" Don't like using officiating as an excuse but that was so egregious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m fine with that and believe we can rise to the expectations but we won’t be getting any pass from the rest of the League and that’s how it should be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If refs are calling like that, You need to take Belichick route. Go and do the exact same thing and if they call on you, show ipad to ref and throw it on ground.

It might not have crossed the line but we should have been much closer on 4th. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seemed to me he repeatedly tried to screw GB. THIS! ALL DAY LONG! Also, pretty obvious at least one 49er was clearly in the neutral zone with his helmet. The sad part about the sneak, was when he came in he was going to mark almost touching the next yard line. When he put the ball down it was a foot or more short of his original spot he came in with. Hell, we had to use a challenge on another play that Love was CLEARLY over the line. He was also clearly laying on another player when he reached the ball across the line to gain.

Last night really was like a light version of the 2014 NFCG. If one of those things that happened (let's also add Love's two picks, the miss to Aaron Jones) the Packers likely win.
