GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Green Bay Packers wide receiver Greg Jennings acknowledges that a bad loss can linger into the next week and damage a team's collective confidence.

And games don't get much worse than the Packers' emotionally charged Nov. 1 loss to Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings.

But Jennings insists the fallout from a disappointing loss to a division rival didn't figure into the Packers' head-scratching loss to a winless Tampa Bay team on Sunday.

While Packers players deny any sort of hangover effect from the Vikings loss, there's no denying that the team is at a crossroads. Hand the streaking Dallas Cowboys their first loss in more than a month Sunday and they're back on track for the playoffs. Lose Sunday's game, and the Packers' season might be lost too.
