When it's crunch time......

The D gave up 86 points in two games, foolish post!

And bulldog wins the thread. And McCarthy was trying to kill the clock, not prove a point.

Doh, I REALLY should read thru before posting.

I think it's legitimate to criticize the D and ST in this thread. The title has to do with "crunch time," and isn't it crunch time when your team pulls ahead with only a few minutes left, and it's up to the ST and D to make a stop?

That counts in my book as crunch time, and both the ST and D got crunched.

No shit. AR is doing really well. Brett's a great player. We miss him. But the Packers are not losing because of Rodgers. We're losing because Montgomery, Jeremy Thompson, Jason Hunter, Justin Harrell and Pettway are no where near as good as Jenkins, Corey Williams, KGB (when he had 9 sacks in the first 8 games last year) and Colin Cole (who was just a couple play per game stop gap, not a freaking 50 snap per game regular).

I don't expect a first year starter to be at his best at crunch time. On the list of problems, he is far down the list right now. I am not excusing the INT, but its not the team's biggest problem.

Xactly. I'll take this out of a first year starter all day.

Good post. Rodgers isn't the main reason we are losing. Still a stupid pass.

Dumb pass...but I concur with the notion that we have far larger issues on the team to deal with before we are a legit title contender again.
