I'm Not That Hurt By This Loss...

As Rodgers got everyone to jump off sides, and broke off that big gain...lining up the field goal, ending the game...I have to admit...I wasn't that hurt. Baltimore killed. Houston? It was like watching my family be murdered in front of me (and I paid to see it). Both of those games, nothing went on besides some good defensive plays and an occasional individual effort (Green catching the pass over three defenders).

The argument made against me was, "We should have won, 21-7." And I completely agree...but are you guys REALLY that surprised by the outcome? Marvin always lets his foot off the gas. That being said, it felt more like we got beat, rather than we beat ourselves. Houston? I wasn't impressed, and we had so many opportunities to beat them. Baltimore, the exact same thing. Aaron Rodgers is a straight gamer, and he made the game.

Even the optimists expected the Bengals to lose to Green Bay before the season started. It's the losses to the "crappy" teams that hurt worse.
