I want to get this off of my chest... Facebook seems like the best avenue right now. I feel like I did when the Packers always lost to Dallas in the playoffs during the mid 90s, when they lost to San Francisco on T.O.s The Catch II, the infamous 4th and 26 in Philadelphia and when Favre threw that final INT against the Giants or when Green Bay got throttled by the Giants at home. Even last year when they dropped a game by 3 to San Francisco. I feel like a typical fan does, my heart has been ripped out. I have a headache and I vacuumed my house instead of watching the post game. I really like the Packers staff. All of them. They do so much with young players. But heres the deal... Throughout this season (and many other seasons mentioned above...) I personally feel like the Packers at times take their foot off of the gas schematically. Today was no exception... There are only a handful of games this year I can think of (New England, Chicago, Philadelphia and Detroit (second game)) where Green Bay just fired on all cylinders for 60 minutes. And stayed mentally in the game. Honestly, I feel like the Packers often times only play for 40 to 45 minutes while they could easily continue to be dynamic and creative schematically for 60. I dont know what it is... Youth? Big heads? Mental blocks? I dont think its the other team, because like today they try to do things offensively and defensively that just isnt them. It just looks painfully awkward. Despite having an opportunity to recover an onside kick at the end, the Packers just lost a big game because they spent most of the 3rd and 4th quarter going 3 and out on offense and allowing Seattles catalyst (Marshawn Lynch) to get in a rhythm. At which point, Wilson was able to create plays. As always, it wasnt one single play that determined this game, it was the inability to consistently play their game for 60 minutes. The Seahawks should not have won that game... The Packers let them hang around instead of delivering a final kill shot in the 3rd or early 4th quarter. This only makes me feel a little better... Thanks for listening FB!
