    MLF struggled with play calling the entire 2nd half. Defense kept us in the game. Not a fan of the soft coverage at the end because TB had no playmakers to beat us deep.

    The Packers inability to convert 3rd and short was uncool and toothless.

    I think the struggle was the O-line having trouble adjusting to what Bucs were doing with their front 7. Bowles is a great defensive coach.

    Packers are #6 seed in NFC. Vikings are #3. Bears are #7.

    It wasn't very satisfying after the Jones fumble, but we beat a tough team at their place in rotten football whether ...... not much bad to say overall.

    I didn't like the play calling or the style of D, but the coaches aren't there to please me or other fans. They're there to win the game - which of course they did.
    What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

    This is why I was really rooting for the Loins.

    Is it me or does AJ Dillon seem slow as balls this year? Where’d his speed go?

    Averaging just 3.5 YPC. Hasn't looked fast or particularly powerful.

    I think he'll be better when teams have to respect Watson's (and hopefully Watkins') deep threat. Today Doubs was Packers fastest receiver.

    He looks smaller, too.

    True about Dillon.

    How many of you saw the Badger debacle? About the only good thing that came out of it - which the Packers ought to try - was the read option with Braelon Allen. I'd like to see a direct snap to Aaron Jones with Dillon beside him - either having the ability to carry the ball. Obviously I don't mean all the time, but as a change of pace or short yardage play, that should be damn effective.

    Agreed on Dillon. I don't know what to think of the o-line. I suppose with time they'll get better, as long as no new you-know-whats hit. I will say that Royce Newman sure seems the weakest link. I wonder if this team would be better if they moved Jenkins back to guard and played Zach Tom at RT. Get Newman out of there.

    I agree Joe. Bowles did a great job mixing coverages and changing up who was coming on each play. TB's defense is top notch.

    That Rodgers pass chart joe posted usually results in a loss. Not a lot of downfield stuff.

    The offense really struggled against a well coached, aggressive, super-talented defense. That's really not a surprise, but after the first half you had hope they would have at least one long TD drive in them to put some distance on Tampa.
    Kudos to the defense and especially special teams for winning this one.

    GREAT POST and GREAT IDEA
    LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?

    Here's a mind blowing thought:

    If our 'Teams continue to improve, they could actually be the difference maker and WIN A GAME.

    Mind. Blown.
