Agreed...I think 2 or 3 times, but he also put them in position to win games late, but 1) Crosby missed GW winner in Minny 2) Houston went 97 yards in one minute plus to kick GW, 3) Bears drove the field to force OT and hit GW after Crosby missed GW at end of reg, 4) Tenn OT game loss and there are more defensive implosions, but this is top of head. This stat below sums up GB season. I think Rodgers will convert a few of what you talk about next year, but they have to get better defensively.

In counting 419 points, Green Bay was not far from the 435 points it got last year. McCarthy’s team scored 48 touchdowns in both instances.

The difference lies in the number of points given up. Last year, the Packers allowed 291. This year, the total ballooned to 380, tied for fifth most in team history.

I'm not sure they didn't? First time in NFL history yesterday with 2 backs and 2 WR each getting over 100 yds. These stats before yesterday..GB ran for over 200 more..not sure about NYJ, but pretty close either way

Read above. Is Rodgers a running back?

If anyone wants to criticize the Packers D or special teams, jump in and I'll join you, but when talking about their RBs, WR or QB..I really don't agree with most of the negativity. Grant was at 50% because of a hamstring until Week 5 and I think is even with Thomas Jones or better. Leon might have an edge over Brandon and overall maybe they are "better", but it's really splitting hairs, IMO

[ateamstupid]

Yeah, Leon Washington, the NFL's leader in all-purpose yards and 40+ yard plays, and Brandon Jackson, same thing. I'm out.
