With the Packers essentially fighting for their playoff lives every game now, Aaron Rodgers and Co. can’t afford any more missteps. As the Titans came to town on Thursday night, this Green Bay squad truly had its back against the wall. They didn’t play like it.
Aside from Rodgers answering an early Titans touchdown with a pretty lob to Christian Watson as Tennessee slowly substituted defenders, the Packers got clocked. Ryan Tannehill (just four incomplete passes) did what he pleased. Largely every Titans’ third down (over 60 percent) was converted, thanks also to Derrick Henry.
And as the Packers meekly went off the field trying to answer another Titans score — while down 14-6 — the faithful at Lambeau Field made their unhappiness with their favorite team known by booing. Loudly.
Remember: it was only 14-6!
Of course, many were shocked to see how quickly fans were discontented with the Packers. That’s how you know it was an ugly affair to start with for the green and gold already without little margin for error.
NFL fans had lots of thought about the Packers getting booed on Thursday night

Defense is playing lights out and deserve a W. Offense probably earned those boos. Rodgers and LaFleur need to have a heart to heart and figure out how they want to put points on the board in the second half. There doesn't seem to be a plan right now.

The cheesehead-clad denizens (there's a lot of Titans fans in the stands as well) of Lambeau boo their Packers off the field. 14-6 Titans at the half.

Al Michael's is very surprised that the fans are booing the Packers off the field? Is he watching the game?

In the last two games I've watched I've heard first Eagles and now Packer fans booing their team. These are the best of times.
