He can probably still deflect blame on Gute.

For this season? Not Gute’s fault financially he’s been hamstrung by Clay, Perry’s ghost, and Cobb’s contracts

I'm thinking he will blame him next year if the Pack don't rebound.
Definitely not Gute's fault. I think he has done a tremendous job in year one as GM. The only thing that he wasn't able to do was get Mack. And it's not like he didn't try.

Nah. The drafts have been below average but we got a couple good players. Dallas, for example, has drafted epicly good players the last few years and isn't much better off than GB. Taking so few shots in FA, and obviously getting fewer hits, is a bigger reason why the Pack can't keep up with the rest of the NFC. Both of those, though, honestly I think should be attributed to the coaching staff as much as the scouts.
Losing Hyde and Heyward was pretty tough for the front office to avoid, but if there was no real depth, the coaching staff should have intervened. Graham and Bennett should have been no-miss signings, but they both couldn't fit in the offense.

Same. O-line has to be number one priority with Rodgers getting older now.

O line and D, the new guys can get better in the off season. I’m sure Aaron will hold a private camp for his young receivers to get them dialed in. We are finally establishing a run game, even with a shit line that’s always hurt, and we still have #12. Protect him and don’t let every team score so damn often and we win easily

I'm rather new to Football, so I don't notice every detail in a game as it's happening, but I just finished watching some highlights to refresh and analyze whats going wrong...
Is it just me or do we need an almost complete rebuild? Is that crazy to say? Tell me it's not crazy. Our WR's and RB's are doing their jobs, but our O-Line is dogshit and the D doesn't look too good to me either.
Am I wrong here?
Many times Rodgers has to do the heavy lifting with his own running ability, not just to get down the field, but to avoid getting sacked... and on a bum knee at that.

the entire right side of the line needs to get rebuilt.
Bulaga is great when healthy only issue is he’s hurt more often than he’s healthy now and the Guard spot is shaky at best and the backups are absolute dogshit.
Ever since Lang left to Detroit the line seems to be cobbled together every year

Rodgers seems to be losing his ability to throw well on the run. Whether it's because of injury or age remains to be seen. It's one of the reasons I thought the Packers should have waited to give him that big contract extension. They had him signed and could have used the franchise tag for two years.

I see what youre saying about Guard for sure. In the opening game against the Bears, McCray let Rodgers get sacked twice, one of those sacks, Rodgers got his knee injured.
Multiple times in that game the O line let Rodgers down.

McCray is simply OK... it's Spriggs and the other back up that are downright pathetic.
I could do as good a job at yelling "look out" as they do and I'd cost far less.

They would likely have paid less than they are now and might have been able to afford some quality players.

Next year will be a make it or break it year for Rodgers. I'm willing to give him a pass this year. Losing Jordy and Cobb/Geromino being sidelined for most of the season gave him only one target that he could trust which was Davante. He doesn't even trust Graham, which I don't blame him for. Add to the fact that he hurt his knee in week one and has played behind an injury riddled O-line and it was just too much to overcome.
Oh yeah, and he hated McCarthy's playcalling.
He's gotta get some help next year and he's gotta find his mojo again. I have no doubt he has 3 maybe 4 prime years left. What I do question is whether or not he can stay upright and not miss any significant game time.
