Well, that was as painful as an NFC Championship game loss could be. Maybe more than the 2015 game at Seattle. Instead of ranting on for several paragraphs, I'll just boil it down to a few words: Disappointing. Inexcusable. Questionable Coaching. Wasted Opportunity. Choke. Embarrassment. Are we the Vikings or Bills of the NFC Championship Game in the last seven years? The Packers had a Patriots'-like opportunity to win five Super Bowls in Rodgers’ career so far (and ironically, several of those chances would’ve been against New England). The Packers set themselves up with everything they wanted for this game, and then... the same result. Again.
And what do we think of Aaron Rodgers' future in Green Bay after this? Much analysis of that is going on now with his demeanor and comments after the game. If he wants to leave and finish his career elsewhere, the questions are all financial involving salary cap hits, etc., but anything can happen. At this point, who knows. All we do know is that this team cannot reach the Super Bowl no matter what they do. And that will sit and fester with Packers fans for decades.
