Packers Notch Another Ugly Win and Bryan Bulaga Doesn't Seem Happy About it
By Scott Rogust
The Green Bay Packers entered Week 14 with an extremely favorable matchup against the Washington Redskins, and walked away with the expected victory. However, that win came at a narrow 20-15 score.
Many professional athletes would be glad to just walk away with the "W," but not Green Bay right tackle Bryan Bulaga. Following the game, Bulaga stressed that the Packers can't continue to play like this if they're expecting to make a deep playoff run.
Bryan Bulaga didn't shy away from the idea that the Packers can't play like they did today and expect to go far: "We left a lot of opportunities on the field. While I'm happy we won, we left a lot on the field. We've gotta clean that up." https://t.co/rfNtJqReQv

Bulaga continued to vent, saying that he'd need tequila to watch the game film. The quantity is still to be determined.
Green Bay held a 14-0 lead over Washington at the conclusion of the first quarter. After that, the Redskins outscored them 15-6, which obviously wasn't enough to secure the upset win. To make matters more concerning, Green Bay's defense surrendered points to an offense led by a banged up Dwayne Haskins.
Bulaga added that in order to figure out where they can be better, he’ll need to watch the film “with a glass of tequila — or a bottle of one.” https://t.co/iVg3gBeGYO

Bulaga's outburst is a good wake-up call for the Packers. In the next two weeks, they face the much-improved Chicago Bears and the tough Minnesota Vikings respectively.
In order to secure high seeding or make a run to the Super Bowl, the Packers need to clean things up and beat opponents they're supposed to defeat soundly.
