by Brian Blanco - AP View full size photo » Writing this recap has been brutal. Losing to an 0-7 team is always hard. But looking back at the game, they did so many things right. Team First Downs Yards Yards/Carry TOP Packers 20 404 5.3 35:17 Buccaneers 17 279 3.2 24:43 But then the special teams failed them (blocked punt for TD; 83 yard kickoff return allowed) and the defense, which played great...

by David Whitley Filed under: Buccaneers , Packers , NFL Analysis TAMPA -- A very amusing story died on Sunday. A better one might have been born. We came not to bury the Bucs, but laugh at them with their rookie quarterback and creamsicle uniforms. Instead, the joke is on the Packers. "I don't think it's embarrassing," Packers guard Daryn Colledge said after the 38-28 loss. "The fact...

Although CB Eric Wright is listed on it because of his serious car crash . The good news is that only 2 players are listed as doubtful (TE Steve Heiden and K Phil Dawson ), so they...

This is the season Seattle lost Steve Hutchinson and the foundation of its offensive line began to crumble. Walter Jones was still among the very best at his position, but he was 32 and would turn 33 less than a week after Seattle was bumped out of the playoffs. That run was paved in part by Tim Ruskell's first ever pick, Chris Spencer , replacing an effectively retired Robbie Tobeck , and rookie Rob...

While it could be hitting the Lions hard, it's just long for the Packers. FB Korey Hall and RB DeShawn Wynn are out, but FB Quinn Johnson will come off the inactive list for his first action and RB Brandon Jackson is back from injury for the first...

Mitchell got the discussion going yesterday . What does it mean for the offensive line in the upcoming weeks?

More photos » by Morry Gash - AP Browse more photos » There's one way to look at the season so far for the Green Bay Packers : disappointing. They sit at 2-2 and are 2.5 games behind the Vikings . The offensive line is a sieve and the defense is inconsistent. QB Aaron Rodgers is playing well, but he won't be in one piece for much longer. And where did the RB Ryan Grant from 2007 go? But...

More photos » by Morry Gash - AP Browse more photos » Paging LT Levi Jones . They can't sign him quick enough . The Packers played a really strong game, but the story will be the problems at left tackle. I try hard not to overreact to a bad game, but this wasn't one bad game. It's been bad all season, topped off by the disaster in Cincinnati when DE Antwan Odom had 5 sacks, and now the...

So Green Bay kind of got crushed. So what? AT LEAST JERMICHAEL FINLEY HELPED MY FANTASY TEAM! Other than that, I haven't seen a game where everything went so wrong so quickly in a long, long time. If you want to read on, go ahead. But beware, all ye who enter here, for there is no good news to follow. Every once in a while, there comes along a matchup that is almost too easy to exploit. Your opponent...

Nothing more needs to be said about the drama attending tonight’s Vikings-Packers tilt at the Metrodome presented by Mall of America. We all know why this game means more than other Vikings-Packers games. We all know why the nation – even the world – will be watching. It isn’t because Daryn Colledge is playing left tackle [...]

It means the first big game for SS Derrick Martin...
