This team is not nearly in as bad of shape as some of you seem to think. They have been in most every game and just can’t close a team out (and that goes for the offense, defense and special teams). The NFL is a league that tries to create parity. This season the Packers have been on the wrong side of some close games, albeit consistently. Their talent is not inferior to other teams, it is just not head and shoulders above anyone elses. That is the NFL. Last year was a lucky one in many ways and this year has been just as unlucky. When things are going bad, Moll gets called for holding and Crosby narrowly misses a long game winning field goal. I think Stock and Sanders are collecting their last month of pay as Packers employees. The season is lost but it is not a hopeless cause. The issue is to see what the players and staff learn from this year.

I am scared of the Lions game this Sunday. So very, very scared of letting a crappy 0-15 team off the hook and not allowing them to set a new record of futility in the NFL (or as every announcer is required to say: the National Football League).

We need a first Bears game (37-3) result to put a cap on this frustrating season.

It will be interesting to see if they pay Grant the big bonus he’s due in March…

Please remove Grant from the “top talent at key positions” list… Hopefully next year there will be an actual competition for the RB spot. Jackson, Wynn, and Lumpkin sounds like a good RB list. I would be fine with Grant being on the practice squad. I hear Justin Beaver will tryout again next year too.
