Yeah, it’s only pre-season, and the Packers sat 31 players including virtually every starter and many twos. But it’s not meaningless, which you could see with every expression of frustration on Matt LaFleur’s face.
The Packers traveled to the Mile High City and performed poorly in a joint practice Friday and again in Sunday night’s game. Little had gone wrong for this team since it nearly knocked off the 49ers back in January, and the last few days could well be an aberration that is quickly forgotten. But important questions need to be answered and tasks accomplished at this point on the calendar, from roster decisions to technique refinement and momentum building.
