Well, folks, the Green Bay Packers have blown another one, this time to the creamsicle-clad Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 38-28.

It feels like the 1980's Packers-Buccaneers matchups which turned into horrible experiences of frustration, time and time again.

Now, check out selected verbiage from the 2009 Packers' version of Bart Starr and Forrest Gregg after the game.

"Well, you have to give credit to Tampa Bay," were the first words of Mike McCarthy's discussion with Larry McCarren.

Hmmm....three bad throwing decisions by Aaron Rodgers. Credit Rodgers for screwing those up.

A Tampa Bay sack total (six) that is more than half their previous output coming into today.

"There was a mental error on the protection unit," said McCarthy on one of them.

No. There were six of them. No, there were a HUGE amount more that forced Rodgers to often run for his life and force throws he didn't want.

I didn't catch a particular comment on McCarthy's conversation when it came to special teams, but look at the numbers on punt and kickoff returns:
• 13.5 yds/punt return
• 54.5 yds/kickoff return

Packers on Sunday?
• 4.5 yds/punt return
• 16.6 yds/kickoff return

All I have to see is Bill Michaels' analysis and repeated Facebookings and Tweetings to get his thoughts on Shawn Slocum, the special teams coach.

I also didn't catch a comment on the Packers' defensive line performance, but how about one sack. One pathetic sack.

So let's go to the coach and see what he says about this loss overall:

"We've got to learn from this."

Really?

Have you learned from the previous losses, the lack of special teams production, the pathetic offensive line performance, the lack of pass rush?

Doesn't look like it when you produce no sacks on Brett Favre, then just one on the pathetic offensive line and Josh Freeman.

Doesn't look like it when you allow an 83-yard kickoff return to set up the score that starts the orange avalanche that seems to have buried the Packers' season (with a few powerhouses left on the schedule).

Doesn't look like it when the Yuckaneers equal the sack total the Vikings produced on Rodgers last week.

And it really doesn't look like it when you have a 4-4 team against a schedule in which the opponents have a combined 28 wins (as of the time of this analysis), meaning a 3.5 wins per team average (less than .500), and you have a schedule with Dallas, San Francisco and Baltimore at home and Chicago, Pittsburgh and Arizona on the road.

Yes, in some people's eyes, guillotines are being reserved to be rolled into 1265 Lombardi Avenue.

I'm not ready to go there yet, but a turnaround had better be in order when it comes to this team if those guillotine orders are to be cancelled.

Such is the situation in the northern outpost of the Bay of Pigs.
