Wow! Total collapse.

Couldn't punch it in on a couple of Seahawk turnovers early in the game for 6.

Jordy Nelson losing a pass in the end zone.

#42 Burnett for GB catches a tipped pass for an INT, but only runs a short ways, and then goes for the slide? I don't understand that. Are you not suppose to gain as many yards as possible on an INT?

#86 Bostick jumping up to attempt to catch the onside kick, and for some reason, lets the ball hit him in the helmet? Was he afraid of getting injured if he catched it?

I guess that's my only gripes. It was a great game up until the end and for some reason, the pressure was taken off the Seahawks.

Congratulations to the Seahawks and their fans. You deserve going to Phoenix

I'm thoroughly disgusted with Green Bay.
5 field goals. Couldn't take advantage of 4 Wilson picks. Lose in overtime.
They just played uninspired football on offense. The D was monster until they got gassed, and that sure wasn't their fault. They gave the offense the ball more than often enough to keep them fresh.

Oh well. It'd be nice to see Russ Wilson get another ring. He's a good kid.

Agreed he appears to be a good cat.... Though I'll say it, the "God is great" and he looked out for them bla...bla....bla is a super turn off for me. I'm not a religious man, but I'm confident that his God could not care less about the Seahawks vs Packers and their respective players.

Though not looking good, would just as soon see Andrew Luck win a ring. Guess Bobby Wagner and Robert Turbin winning another would not be bad. It will be tough for me to hope either the Seahawks or Patriots win another Super Bowl.

Where was the Packer offense for the first half? Yes, that is what I said! They were DEEP in the red zone 3 times and came away with 9 points total for them. It should have been 28-0 at the end of the first half. If it had been that, this would have been a different game in the 2nd half.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

They lost that game in the first half, the offense simply did not lose the deal. The defense was stellar until the last few minutes.

If any ONE of the field goals had been a touchdown it would have been a different game.

Can you imagine how different the game would have been if all those would have been touchdowns? I do not know what the final score would have been, but that would have been a different game.

Not to mention two Superbowl appearances during the length of his rookie contract. Very talented IMHO.

I was a big Hawk fan. Great guy, no question. Not entirely fair, but I always felt just a little disappointed in his play. He was solid, when I wanted spectacular, I guess. Seems his name was never called on a tackle for a loss. Schemes weren't meant for him to be that penetrating LB that I wanted him to be. I do wish him the best and believe he's got a couple more good years in him....hopefully somewhere other than NFC North.

Solid is the word. His name wasn't called too often on the big plays, but it also wasn't called on the stupid penalties. He's like the solid offensive line guy who's name never gets called. That's not necessarily a bad thing.

Nice guy and a fan favorite when it came to interacting with the fans. My son was into painting and sketching the Packers players when he first came to GB. I actually have an original canvas he did of AJ that he was kind enough to autograph. My son also did some pencil sketches that AJ proudly displays in his mancave.

That's because his football IQ was severely lacking, something which was supposed to be one of his strong suits coming out of tOSU. If a tackle was needed eight yards past the line of scrimmage, Hawk was your guy.

He wasn't even starting for a team that starved for inside linebacker play and had no depth to provide it. I pray he lands on the Vikings squad, where it seems old Packers go to pasture.

Love to have Cobb back, but I'm a bit surprised the Pack swallowed that bill. BTW, how much did he leave on the table? Haven't heard what other offers he had.

For no rational reason, I'm excessively saddened that Abbrederis suffered another concussion yesterday. I know that he may never even start, but I really want for him to be successful in GB and this news just sort of distresses me a little more than it should.
