I went with other because I think the entire defense failed way too many time. The offense had some failures but they actually put up some points. Barkley may have had 3 INTs but the one doesn't really count because it was a hail mary at the end of the half. I saw WAY too many missed tackles. Terrible angles to the ball. Bad pass coverage. Trying to strip the ball instead of just tackling.
Those 3 turn overs by the O led to 17 points for GB though, so ya the def didn't play well, not at all, but they likely hold GB to around 20-24 points if the O doesn't give GB an extra 3 shots in good field position

I agree. I just place more blame on the defense this game. They played much worse than they had been before. No reason to let that terrible run game trounce you. There were plenty of reasons for this loss besides the defense but that's who I'm going to pick on more.
I will go with poor tackling. Holy shit did they reach the packers' RB's in the backfield or close to the LoS and they just failed to tackle and then they would run for another +20 yards, or they couldn't tackle the WR's once they caught the ball so they could get an extra +5 yards.
This game also shows why Floyd is not DROTY. He just get man-handle too often and doesn't create consistent pressure.
Barkley had 2 INTs that looked like they were on him although Braverman stopped his route on 1 of the INTs. Barkley finished with a better QBR rating than Rodgers.
I didn't see the 2nd half but I've read 2 separate articles today (one on the Bear Report) that stated the int you are talking about was 100% on Braverman because he stopped his route. They said this was his first play of the game and after running the wrong route he stayed on the bench. Is this true?

If thats the case, anyone still wanna say something along the lines why Bellamy and not Braverman?

I'm not a Braverman promoter but at this point does it matter? The fact that he played one snap, f'd up on his route, then spent the rest of the game on the bench (he played one snap, that is it) speaks volumes of what the coaches think of him. You would think they'd be eager to get him (or ANYONE else not named Bellamy) on the field at WR but apparently that's not he case.

We don't know for sure because we don't know what route was called, but it clearly looked like it. At least that's what I said yesterday.
What I liked on the Hail Mary INT is how Barkley was able to get free in the pocket and keeps the Play alive. The pass alone was 50/50 and nothing to hold against him.
How the hell can we NOT cover Nelson deep in that situation? Blows my mind. We need a serous overhaul of the secondary in 2017. Keep Barkley at QB and focus on the DB's. No more excuses for not drafting a safety in first round.
