That's abysmal. Time to get some talent on that side of the ball.

A blocked kick, a blocked punt, and a predictable offense after the first possession. All formulas that contribute to losing games. Add in the inability to cover kicks and punts, and guess what? You're probably gonna lose!
Only 6 of 29 targets were to anyone other than Jones and Adams. That's obviously play design. Rodgers 91.9 QBR was much better than Jimmy G's 57.1, and Rodgers did not throw an INT. Jimmy did. Only seven yards total gained by other than Adams, Jones, and Dillon, prior to his injury. None of that points at player failure, it points at offensive predictability, and the belief that you don't need to change up on your offense to be effective. It's more of an issue of being smug about what you do, and believing nobody can stop you. That is called coaching.
The defense played very well. That last drive by the 49ers was against a defense that was gassed. They were also demoralized due to the failures of special teams. I'm not pinning this loss on them in any way nor form.
From the start of the season, our problems with Special Teams was obvious, and poorly addressed by the coaching staff. You cannot allow yourself to be the worst in the league and survive to win trophies. This is on LeFleur.
Of course, heads will roll. I'd be willing to bet a dollar to a doughnut that they'll place this all on a couple of people, and fail to address the fact that it's all on LeFleur's shoulders, for not insuring that he had solid ST coaches, and gave them the players they needed to make them work. You can't eliminate anyone from service on those squads if you're going to end up the worst in the league, and that's exactly what the Packers were.
Final analysis? This loss falls directly on LeFleur's shoulders. Nobody else! Let's hope it's not too late for him to learn. He's a darned good coach.

Go check the All22 on Rodgers dopey heave to Adams (his final play as a Packer), look what Lazard is doing. QB1 had tunnel vision all night

He looked checked out. Probably thinking about what team he wants to play for

This.. how much was ML design and how much was Arod having tunnel vision and changing plays to the wrong ones? I'll let the tape jockeys who know more about that sort of thing than me take that one.

I can confirm for you that ML play design did not call for Rodgers to chuck a prayer to double covered Adams rather than hang in and throw a bullet to wide open Lazard

This game was over when………..
Mercedes Lewis fumbled.
Just before that happened, Joe and Troy made the comment Green Bay was averaging 8 yards per play.
EIGHT. YARDS. PER. PLAY. !!!!!!!
After that fumble the offense lost it’s Mo Jo. Game over.

That is a sign of a weak team lacking in leadership. Both mentally and emotionally...
It's funny Rodgers is whining about all the contracts coming due and how he doesn't want to be part of a rebuild. Well . . . it's your goofy contract with it's inflated CAP number for next year that will prevent the Packers from keeping their players. You, my friend, are one big reason for the rebuild so just look in the mirror after each cut is made.
Rodgers last throw as a Packer is an interesting parallel to Brett's last throw as a Packer. Both were unnecessarily difficult and stupid throws in a crucial situation. Favre's was of course an interception as would be expected from the all-time leader in interceptions. Aaron's was unnecessarily difficult and of course was thrown there as part of his on-going trust issues with his receivers. Instead of looking for the better, easier throw, I'll chuck an impossible pass to the only receiver I "trust".
