Packers fans on Twitter fed up after Green Bay bounced from the playoffs by the San Francisco 49ers
Columnist Jim Polzin asked Packers fans on Twitter what they thought of Green Bay's 13-10 loss to the San Francisco 49ers in an NFC divisional-round showdown Saturday night at Lambeau Field in Green Bay.Â
Here's what fans were saying after Green Bay's season came to an abrupt end:
Super letdown
Special teams was abysmal but Rodgers did not shine at all in the second half. Terribly disappointing.

Say no more
Championship level defense. Shaky o-line play. Abysmal Special Teams Play. pic.twitter.com/UKYlER8tkl

Let the games begin
This was so unbelievably disappointing! I thought this was our best opportunity to make a run at the SB in some time. This is on coach L and not addressing the special team issues this season. Now we start the circus better known as the offseason.

Buck stops there
This loss sits squarely on Lafleur's shoulders. The play calling was less than stellar but the worst mistake was not fixing the special teams weeks ago - by firing the coach and handling it himself if he had to. I can't believe it - another heartbreaking loss.

Poorly timed vanishing act
Aaron Rodgers disappeared again at the most crucial time. Great regular season quarterback, but can’t find a way in the playoffs. Sure, special teams were historically bad, but he still had the ball late, score tied, and nothing. 3 points 2nd half...

Looking the other way
When you ignore your biggest weakness this is what happens. #Packers special teams

Plenty to go around
Everyone will blame the special teams but that loss falls 100% on Aaron Rodgers and the offense.

Set up for failure
The longer the 49ers hung around the possibility of them stealing the game got bigger. Can’t have the offense stall in the 2nd half and expect to win.

Rude awakening
I’m mad but I really think this is on 12. Only 10 points at home with supposedly the best qb and wr in the game? Maybe some people are believing their hype.

Hits keep coming
And I thought last night's loss to Michigan State was depressing...

Reaching an all-time low
Defense was amazing, offense was awful, special teams may be the worst of all time.
— Justin Matsick (@JustDeac) January 23, 2022
Plain as day
You could see the failure coming. All phases.

Hung out to dry
What a shame for this defense. You couldn't have asked for anything else from them. Offense was terrible. Just terrible.
— Dustin Oldenburg (@CRDustin) January 23, 2022
No excuses
How can a guy come in completely unblocked to block a field goal? #46 got pulverized on the blocked punt. Two players who should be cut as we speak. Pitiful way to lose. Inexcusable way to lose. Special teams cost the game and that is awful.
— Teri Shannon (@77rocket) January 23, 2022
Start from scratch
Why do they only play out of the shotgun? No play action passes. Obviously special teams need to be blown up.
— Dale Hanson (@dalehanson82) January 23, 2022
Revamp the entire team?
Straight to the point
1. TWO kicks blocked
— Jon Bosworth (@BosworthJB) January 23, 2022
2. 10 points
Not so fast there
54 yards of offense in the 2nd half would like a word.
— Dale Hanson (@dalehanson82) January 23, 2022
Got his number
Annnd the 49ers own Aaron Rodgers which is much worse than him owning the Bears😳
— David Freeborg (@DavidFreeborg) January 23, 2022
What are the odds?
Literally no one had the defense giving up 6 and also have the Packers losing.
— Nick P Bassill (@NickPBassill) January 23, 2022
Exactly
Other than our hearts and souls being ripped to pieces?

Tear it to the ground
Blow up the team

What do you think!!!

Enough said
Special teams.
