[QUOTE="pacmaniac, post: 949450, member: 4369"] You could say that the Packers lost because of special teams. You could also say they lost because of the defense - they would have won if the defense didn't give up those 6 points. You could also say they lost because of the offense - they would have won if the offense scored just 6 more points. The question is which unit should get the most blame. Is it reasonable to put most of the blame on ST? If we had the #1 ranked ST unit, then absolutely. But ST stunk all season long, that's why they were the #32 ranked ST unit. We knew they sucked, the Packers knew they sucked, Rodgers knew they sucked. Many of us on the forum even predicted that there would be a major ST blunder in a playoff game. We knew the offense would need to score enough to compensate for that. You can't really blame a unit for performing terribly when they performed terribly all season. Is it reasonable to blame a defense for giving up 6 points? Obviously not. That leaves the offense. This was a Top 10 offense, scoring 26.5 points per game. They even scored 30 points against the 49ers earlier in the season. Rodgers got everything he wanted - not just a home playoff game, but one in the cold! (So no excuses that it was too warm like it was against the Bucs.) But he could only put up 13 points? Any offense that scores 13 points is going to lose 90%+ of playoff games. So the offense should get the most blame. [/QUOTE]
