The possession was only 8 plays, yet Matthews and Perry apparently had to be rested for a couple of the big ones. If these guys are worth their salaries, where were they?
The Packer 'O' was bad on 3rd Downs. The Packer Passing Game wasn't at all adequate to ever imagine competing in the NFL. The Offensive Game Plan wasn't at all adequate.
