Sunday at 4:25pm...Game of the week should be a good one right? WRONG! The first quarter was strictly all Packers. FG to a passing Touchdown then to a Punt return. Aaron Rodgers was picking our defense apart. Corners getting exposed and toasted, it was just bad. 2nd quarter down 17-0 we manage to put points on the board as Parkey kicks a FG. Back on defense the masaacre continues as Aaron Rodgers finds Jordy Nelson for the TD. Wait there's more! Packers back on offense as Eddie Lacey runs in for a TD (1 Yard). Back on O we can't get these 3rd down conversions so we settle for another FG. 30-6 at halftime, it's getting so bad for us. Packers start their 3rd quarter with a FG so defense did good not letting them score a TD. As Mark Sanchez has his pass swatted and caught by Julius Peppers for a 53 yard TD. Finally a sign of life as Sanchez finds Jordan Matthews for a 10 yard TD. That life was quickly taken away ass Aaron Rogers throws it to Eddie Lacey for the 32 yard TD. The Packers would go on to score one more time as would we. Terrible defeat.
*Side Notes*
Our corner back play has to step up. Bradley Fletcher gave up at least 150+ yards alone. We run a man to man coverage so when they were exposing him the Defensive coordinator should have made adjustments instead of letting your pride get in the way and not changing our scheme. We have the Titans next week so hopefully we can bounce back and put a beating on them.

I think this is a great blog for anyone who has missed one of the Eagles' games. It is a nice recap of what happened during the game and does not require you listening to reporters talking about a single play forever during their recap.
