The game should have been 10-10, and we're looking at a very different game.But the offense from week 12 all the way through the Dallas game (which is 8 games) turned the ball over just twice in those 8 games. One interception from Rodgers in the Dallas game, one fumble from Rodgers in the Houston game.So even though the Packers offense was held scoreless in the first half, the point still remains that when the offense for the Packers shows the first sign of trouble and makes a couple of mistakes, we rarely have a defense that can step up and weather the storm.First 5 possessions of the game:Falcons TDPackers FG missedFalcons FG madePackers fumble lostFalcons TDTwo mistakes by the offense and you're down 17-0 before you even bat an eyelash. I feel as if wanting a defense to step up when the offense makes two uncharacteristic mistakes is not too much to ask, especially when the offense went 8 games with just 2 turnovers.But unfortunately that wasn't the case.Rodgers by the way in the first half: 12 of 17 (70%) for 119. Superman couldn't do it all as usual.</blockquote>
