First off credit to the Packers they won fair and square. Rodgers was unreal yesterday and once again proved why he is up there with Brady. He single-handidly won them the game (lets be honest with any other QB than Rodgers they lose) and deserves all of the praise heaped upon him.
Saying that, I felt that our offense had some bad luck. We had a couple of 3rd and 1st we didn't covert in the first half. We moved the ball afterwards, but GB did a great job of controlling the clock and having long drives. I don't think GBs defense can hold us to under 30 if our defense has some 3 and outs and we get more possessions.
BB was testing his defense in this game. Browner and Revis were great, but you need a man/zone against Rodgers. I think he wanted to see how Ryan/Dennard could do and then in the 2nd half we played more of a 2-deep safety with Revis following Nelson. Rodgers made some ridiculous throws to Starks and Cobb against LBs. Nelson made a great play (slight push off). It just seemed like freakish plays, and this game showed that we need Chandler Jones pass rushing abilities so we can contain Rodgers.
I think if we play them again in the SB we should be able to beat them. BB will have a whole new gameplan that will throw Rodgers off.
