I'm not saying the defense is playing poorly, but I don't see that all out pressure we saw so often last year.
And I can't help but wonder if I'm not feeling more frustrated about this loss because of the fact that we rallied at the end and came sooooo close. Had we never scored that last touchdown this may have actually been an easier loss to swallow.

Yeah Rodgers was out of position on several big plays. The one I recall was the play when Rod Smith ran an out route and Rodgers went for the fake and he slipped and Plummer overthrew the ball. Had that ball been thrown correctly it wouldv'e been 6 points. Rookie mistakes are not what we need right now.
