Did that play clock not hit zero before it was snapped?

Someone explain it to me, because I just don't get it. How can a team score 31 points in the first half not score a single freakin' point in the 2nd half thus far? How can a defense that shut out a team in the first half allow that same team to score 21 points in a quarter and a half?

It baffles me, as it does most of you, on how we can totally dominate in the first half only to allow teams back in the game in the second half. How many times has that happened this year and it almost bite us in the butt? You would think the coaches and players would have learned something by now. Do we just start playing too soft on defense with a big lead? Offense? Both? I understand with 31-0 lead at the half that you do back off some to save playe and players, but we seem to back off too much. Then again, what do I know? I am a high school baseball coach. When it comes to football, I am about qualified enough to coach middle school football at best. Lol.

Tough call  but I think we need to win,  regardless of the Cards game.  Don't want a two game losing streak going into playoffs. 

We are up 31-10 with 3 minutes left in the 3rd quarter. I think the chance of a 2 game losing streak is very, very low at this point.

I am baffled by this decision to leave Cam, Olsen, and other key players in the game. I seriously doubt somebody has not let RR know the situation with the Cards regardless of what he said about not wanting to know about the score during the game.

Those of you saying it is too early to pull the starters...why do you say that? The Cards are not going to win their game and we are up 31-10 with 18 minutes left in the game. It would take two big comebacks in two different games for us to not have home field advantage locked up. The field is a mess out there right now. Is it more important to win this game and go 15-1 or make sure we have everybody healthy for the playoffs? I don't understand how it can be "too soon".

Okay, this should be an easy decision now...Cam and rest of the key starters out of the game.

Yeah, I think we need to start pulling starters. If we score in offense here, then I think it is a no-brainer. 

Time to play coach. Starters all come back on the field in the 2nd half given our score and the Seahawks/Cardinals score? Do we give our offense one more score then pull them?

Seattle is beating Cardinals 30-6. Do we play Cam in the 2nd half at all?

Amazing how this team can get a big led and let a team back in it. I know it is Aaron Rodgers, but come on, we had the Packers dominated for three quarters.
