In the course of every NFL season there are dozens, perhaps hundreds of turning points. There are highs and lows that players, coaches and fans may not even realize until long after the fact.
There are other times, however, when everyone can recognize rock-bottom when it’s staring you in the face. For the 2010 Green Bay Packers that moment may well have presented itself at FedEx field on the outskirts of Washington D.C.
Against an inferior opponent that was already playing poorly, the Packers played down to the level of their competition and found themselves on the short end of a game they knew very likely could come back and haunt them before the season was over.
