The Packers' worst fears came true Saturday with the Aaron Rodgers-led offense falling flat and the oft-maligned special-teams units delivering a nightmarish performance.
Yes, missing Lazard on that last deep pass to Adams looks terrible on the all 22. But the rest of the game, it sure seemed like no one was open.
I put this loss on Rodgers, but Rodgers because they were playing with a make shift offensive line when they had all of the people who had propelled them mid-season available, yet reshuffled. If Turner was good to go, he should have played right tackle, where Bosa was lining up. Without Bak, Nijman should have been starting at LT. Meyers at center was fine, and I am not sure who should have been at right guard. But under no circumstances should Turner been at LT with Nijman on the bench.
The irony of course is the loss of Dillon on special teams took away the only weather advantage this team had.
