@BruceIronsNFL Because we watched the second half. They lost by 4 after leading by 18 at half. And 15 after 3 quarters. The injuries are obviously a major factor. But pretending like this wasn’t another HUGE coaching choke job is burying your head in the sand
Final: Bears 31, #Packers 27.
Ben Johnson beats Matt LaFleur twice this year. And the second is as devastating of a defeat as you can imagine.
The Packers' season ends in the NFC wild card round for the second straight year, and they coughed up one hell of a lead to get there.
Matt LaFleur said that he felt like the Packers were having some success on the ground.
They averaged -0.16 EPA per rush attempt with a 33% success rate.
@joelvmoran There were definitely several plays like this. And yes, Love was terrible last night. But MLF’s offense continues putting this offense in terrible situations. And the receivers are a PROBLEM.
Matt LaFleur’s winning record looks great on paper but it was built on the back of Aaron Rodgers. Those early seasons hid a lot of flaws in coaching and game management. Without Rodgers we’re seeing the real LaFleur and it’s not pretty.
Over the past 2 games, the #Packers have had 11 drives where they took the ball into opposing territory.
They scored 20 total points on those 11 drives.
This offense is broken.
The Packers are 5-3-1 this season. They allowed 16 or fewer points in all 3 losses. They are now 1-3 when allowing 16 or fewer points this season, their most such losses since 1978, per ESPN Research.
