Here’s what folks are saying in the wake of Green Bay Packers loss

The morning after a Green Bay Packers loss – heck the first few minutes after a Packers loss – are brutal. Considering the way the Packers lost yesterday, one can only imagine the lamenting, the whati-ifs, the angst being displayed worldwide among Packers fans.
Well, one of the best gauges of that anguish these days is Twitter. The vehicle for instantaneous joy in victory and despair in defeat was working overtime yesterday and into this morning with fans registering complaints, suggestions, questions and brutal criticism of everyone from Aaron Rodgers to the referees.
I did a bit of digging (but not a lot because I would have been digging for weeks) to offer up some of what I saw as the best tweets available out there on the interweb.
You may enjoy some of these, you might not.
Anyway, know that you’re not the only one suffering from this setback.
"If you've got a nervous stomach at home, join the club," Larry McCarren says on #Packers radio.

I never thought the Packers would NEED a bye week by Week 4. But they need a bye week.

AFC North has slightly turned things around this week: 3-0 so far with wins over Packers, Texans & Vikings.

Geno Atkins received a PFF grade of -2.9 vs. the Packers; the lowest in his 4 year career. His first negative grade since 2011.

Only time I am glad I live in the KC area is after a Packers loss. Probably what keeps me somewhat sane

What do Big Ben, C. Newton, M. Stafford, and C. Kapernick have in common? They all set personal bests for passing yards against the Packers

The NFL Network gives the Packers more love after they lose than they give the Pats after they win.

Bakhtiari deserves blame for batted pass, but Packers didn't help by calling the same type of pass over and over again. Easy to time leap.

House: "I guess we have to get five turnovers. I really don't how we lost the game. Maybe you can tell us what happened." #Packers
