Interesting start to Packer game.

Total BS unsportsmanlike conduct call against GB on their first good play.

Even worse "hands to the face" call against King after a big sack that would have pushed them back. Hands never got even close to the face, worse call than either against Detroit.

45 yard field goal attempt to put some points on the board after finally moving the ball a little? No thanks. We’ll give any bit of momentum we had right back to our opponent.

I don’t mind going for it at all. The play call though...

LaFleur should have challenged the Graham drop.

Agreed on both parts. Up the middle against 49ers is not going to work with Jones.

LaFleur should have challenged the Graham drop.

Live it didn't even look close and Graham didn't seem to think he caught it, so likely no one looked at it.

This offense is just so, so bad. No weapons at receiver or tight end beyond Adams at all. Double Adams. Pin the ears back.

For some reason media continues to say that WRs are fine. It’s bizarre.

Who says that?  By and large they’ve been labeled as adequate at best.

Martinez just kills this team in the middle of the field. Can’t cover anyone and is lost playing zone.

Gets buried way too often in the run game too.

You don't think Jimmy Graham's barely reanimated corpse is a formidable weapon?

At least the boys came out of the bye week ready to play.  Can't ask for much more than that.

On a side note, there was an article a couple weeks ago about how the Packers had a total of negative 3 punt return yards this season.  I haven't been keeping track each week, but I can't remember any positive punt returns since then, and we've had -4 punt return yards again tonight.  How in the world...?

And while I'm on the subject of punts, what happened to JK Scott?  He was our best weapon to start the season.  Now he can't punt the ball more than 35 yards.  And it's 65 degrees with no wind in the stadium tonight.

I think Scott is being asked to directionally punt with hangtime versus banging deep.

They’re asking him to kick 35 yarders?

No I think he’s failing at what they are asking him to do.

In other words, take one of the best punters in the league and tell him to do something different? Wow, that seems really smart.

Actually, it was -9 yards for the year. On pace to be the worst in NFL history.

One of the reasons I was glad to see McCarthy go  was cuz their Special Teams were at the bottom of the league every year. Finally, that would get fixed. Um..., no. They have unbelievably gotten worse.

Panthers really miss Cam Newton

Yeah, but Kyle Allen wasn't the main reason my boyz lost. We had to get a TD on that last drive. Even if that terrible K hits that FG, we probably lose, as Brees would have had forever to score.

That's game, set and match for the Panthers. Some real tough decisions to make in the offseason, starting with the GM, coach and QB.

LOL. 

Which Version, the one who hasn’t won a game in 365 days or the one from a few years ago? 

Allen played very well today.  Their kicker sucked balls.  As did their defense.  Panthers should have won.

Frank Gore is now third all time in rushing yards gained. I didn’t even realize he was still in the league.

I don't root for or against the Packers. But I will admit that it's nice to see another team look as pathetic at SF as the Panthers did. One of the Panthers' excuses was that they didn't have their star QB in the linuep.

Packers clearly aren’t nearly as good as their record. Even wins that looked good at the time really aren’t. But their upcoming schedule is so weak that 4-1 is very doable. 12-4 with a wild card road game to New Orleans?  Oy....
