Either GB is really shitting the bed today or the Bucs might be a legit SB contender. The Bucs are completely dominating this game.

Can’t be overlooked that GB and done a completely pathetic job building their roster around Rodgers the last several years.  They got some big names on the team at QB/RB/WR....but that is their team pretty much. 

Rodgers elevates everyone.  But against good teams it really shows how weak their roster is

Could be both.

Bakhtiari getting hurt definitely didn't help.

Drafting a QB in the 1st was a head scratcher. Most teams would be trying to make a last push with their 36 year old HOF QB and to my knowledge Rodgers hasn't been pulling the will he/won't he retirement shenanigans that likely played a big role in Rodgers being drafted by the Packers. We'll see how it all plays out. If Jordan Love becomes another HOF caliber QB then obviously it was the right call.

And followed that up drafting a QB in the first round by drafting a RB in the 2nd.    And a young Aaron Jones is one of the best in the NFL with a solid backup already  behind him. 

And we saw how weak they are at WR when Adams was off the field all last year.   

They have done a really bad job of late.

The Packers front office has had some shifts and power struggles over the past few years.

This is basically a preseason game now.

I watched parts of three games today.  GB/Tampa, NE/Denver, and the Panthers.  Rough day today for Rogers, NE and Teddy B.  Rogers throws two int's, one a pick 6.  Cam had two picks, four sacks, and a fumble.  Lost to a bad team.  Bridgewater with two int's and four sacks.

In their defense on that 2nd round pick, Jones is in the last season of his rookie contract and the Packers may be in the "don't pay RBs" camp.

Who would've expected the margin of victory for Packers vs Bucs to be larger than Dolphins vs Jets? And the Jets scored zero!

I’d get it if Rodgers wasn’t in a win now window. Rodgers is good enough where solving a RB issue is something they could do if they invested in him.  

I mean just look at that Tampa RB.  He has success because he plays in an offense where everyone has to be  worried about everyone else. 

[LinvilleGorge]

If Lawrence is paying attention to the Jets he might wanna seriously consider pulling a Luck. Holy poo, they are TERRIBLE.

The retread coaches that got snatched up quickly in this year's coaching carousel (Rivera and McCarthy) are a combined 3-8 so far.

You know how I feel about retreads.

[Mr. Scot]

For those that were talking about us winning the division, I think today's results might have quieted that talk for a little bit.
