The Green Bay Packers just received a harsh reality check. Undefeated since Week 3, Matt LaFleur's team returned home as heavy favorites against the Carolina Panthers.
But an ugly start quickly spiraled into a disaster. The Packers played poorly, failing to get anything going on offense. And to make it worse, they lost several key players to injury, including tight end Tucker Kraft.
The Packers said it wasn't a trap game, but it sure looked like it. They got what they deserved on Sunday, falling to 5-2-1 with a brutal 16-13 loss to the Panthers.
