Anyone who blames this on defense is brain dead.

They were on the field all day and playing phenomenal (with backups). We now tied the record for consecutive games holding your opponent to 20 points or less (11).

Game was over when the refs started calling phantom PI flags on them.

Meh, it definitely is on the defense. They don’t get a pass on this today. The offense could’ve burned clock better, but you the defense was a big part of this loss.

Also, the Packers offense was both incredibly injured and mid. Which more than canceled out our defensive injuries.

The defense got no help but they also didn’t do anything in the 2nd half to stop the Packers. Jordan Love isn’t good and they were the typical Dennis Allen “break when it matters” defense

The packers ran 11 more plays and had 5 more minutes of possession. Basically 1 more drive.

Being gassed doesn’t hold water

Our offense has yet to score more than 20 points in a game this year and we missed a FG.

I guarantee our defense would have held for the final GB drive after a FG. Unless the refs had another phantom PI to call.

I dunno, defense was on the field a lot after Carr got hurt. One of the Packers scoring drives in the 2nd half consisted entirely of pass interference yards.

Putting that drive aside though, all the offense had to do in that 2nd half sustain a drive or two and maybe score a field goal. Couldn’t do it.

I don't see how giving up 18 points in the 4th quarter is not the defense's fault.

We could have the Dome Patrol out there but the offense can’t score more than 15 points per game.

The defense laid an egg when it mattered.

Its certainly not all on them, but they are equally to blame.

You win as a team and lose as a team.

The O, the D and STs all shined, but when the chips were down in the fourth quarter they all failed to make the game winning plays you need in the NFL.

This was a team loss and yes the coaches are part of the team.

Who's fault is it the offense only scored 10 points in the first half and didn't exist in the 2nd half?

they showed the stats where the saints ran less time off the clock than the packers did. all while the saints were trying to run out the clock.

let that sink in, as how brain dead our coaching staff is to do that.

from the moment carr went down, the DA game plan was to run out the clock. then he calls no running plays, so we run 3 passing plays and then punt, using less then 1 minute of the clock.

i bet second half TOP numbers was 25 packers and 5 for saints

GB was down its three best offensive players

This defense should’ve been able to EAT with a 17 point lead

Just like Carr cucks blamed everything on play calling and coach.

Now it is Winston time to get the blame.
Even though the offense has been shitty all year.

They did? Did you not see the phantom PI calls that kept extending drives?

Imagine what would have happened if we were missing the left side of our o-line today like the Packers were. Carr would have company from Jameis at the hospital.

Our d-line rarely pressured Love today.

In 2023 with every rule against them and one drive with 68 yards on two penalties the defense gave up 18 points and people are blaming them. One genius graded them an F! How many 3 and outs or non drives did the offense have in the Second Half? It doesn’t work like that, not in this league. Brain dead is being kind, mostly it’s a severe lack of football knowledge

So why no more offense from us? 10 points won’t cut it. 7 was special teams and put the defense back on the field.

Offense has got to put pressure on other teams
