The Green Bay Packers suffered yet another demoralizing loss - this time at the hands of the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday Night Football - and star quarterback Aaron Rodgers couldn't help but voice his displeasure.

"We've lost too many games like this - that's the most frustrating thing," Rodgers said after the defeat, NFL.com's Michael Silver reports. "We've had a chance in almost all our road games - especially against the Rams and the Patriots, and again tonight. We're right there. But we just can't get it done."

A fourth-quarter comeback by Seattle dropped Green Bay to 4-5-1. With their third loss in four games, the frustration in the Packers' locker room is starting to become palpable and head coach Mike McCarthy's job may be in jeopardy, according to Silver.

Following the game, Rodgers was asked whether there was any hope left for the season.

"What kind of question is that? Come on, man," the two-time MVP responded. "I don't even know how to answer that. I mean, come on, what am I supposed to say? Of course there's hope, of course we believe in each other."

Rodgers wasn't the only player to voice his frustration.

"Most definitely, we should have (put them away)," said veteran defensive back Tramon Williams. "There've been too many games where we didn't finish, where we couldn't maintain momentum. We've just gotta get that win."

Williams appeared upset that McCarthy chose to punt on fourth-and-two with his team trailing late in the fourth quarter.

"I want to go for it," Williams said. "I want to play to win. We've got Aaron Rodgers. We (should) play to win - period. We don't want to put it in anybody else's hands. We've got the best quarterback in the league. We've got to put it in his hands and let him do what he does."

The Packers will try to right the ship when they face the Minnesota Vikings in Week 12.
