LANDOVER, Md. Johnny Bower Jersey . -- Reality hit the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night: Their season is on the brink after a 42-24 loss to the Washington Redskins at FedEx Field served as the Packers fourth straight defeat.With six games remaining, they are 4-6 and two games behind NFC North co-leaders Detroit and Minnesota.Even if they stop the streak next Monday night in Philadelphia, the Packers will be two games behind in the division because the Lions and Vikings play Thursday in the annual Thanksgiving game in Detroit.We understand clearly whats in front of us, so six losses puts your ass against the wall, Packers coach Mike McCarthy said Sunday. And thats where we are.Its an unusual position for a McCarthy-coached team. The Packers streak of seven playoff appearances is in jeopardy. They havent had a losing season since?Aaron Rodgers first year as the starting quarterback in 2008.Obviously coming in here, we knew we needed this game, McCarthy said. This puts us at 4-6, and our backs are up against it. Weve lost four in a row, lost some guys tonight to injury. Its important for us to get back home, hopefully assess where we are, move forward and get ready for Philadelphia. Just didnt play well enough.It was another poor performance by the Packers defense, which has allowed 30 or more points in four straight games -- the first time a Packers team has done that since 1953, according to Elias Sports Bureau research. In each of the past two games, coordinator Dom Capers unit has given up 40-plus points.Defense, we didnt stop em, McCarthy said. Our pass defense, we didnt get off the field. It was touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, touchdown, field goal in the second half. I think that tells the story.Still, McCarthy insisted his team was going to rally, stick together.Weve got a good taste of the reaction of our football team to five losses, so clearly understand its not going to get any better being at six losses, McCarthy said. So thats part of the challenge in front of us, and I have all the confidence in the world. This is a great group of men, so I dont question that part of it. But we all need to perform better, and we did not get it done tonight. Brooks Laich Jersey . It was just business as usual for the Thunder at home. Durant scored 32 points and the Thunder beat the Bulls 107-95 on Thursday night for their eighth straight win. Bruce Boudreau Jersey . The native of Mont-Tremblant, Que., captured a World Cup downhill event Saturday, his second this year and fifth career victory on the circuit. http://www.theleafshockeystore.com/Maple-Leafs-Bobby-Baun-Adidas-Jersey/ . Mickelson barely made the cut but had the best round of the day with nine birdies and an eagle coupled with two bogeys to sit two shots behind leader Craig Lee of Scotland. Lee shot a 69 for a 12-under 204 total. "I just love the fact I am in contention and have an opportunity in my first tournament of the year here in Abu Dhabi," Mickelson said. BALTIMORE -- Josh Donaldson is making a push for another AL MVP Award, and the Toronto Blue Jays may be narrowing the field in the AL East.Donaldson hit his fourth homer in two days and Jose Bautista also went deep in support of Marco Estrada, leading the Blue Jays over the fading Baltimore Orioles 5-1 on Monday night.Toronto maintained a two-game lead over the Red Sox for the division lead, while Baltimore fell four games back. The Orioles have lost four of five and are clinging to the second wild card.Donaldson hit a solo homer in the fourth to tie it 1-1. The reigning AL MVP had three homers in a 9-6 win over Minnesota on Sunday.Hes such a good player, Blue Jays manager John Gibbons said. When hes doing his thing, it makes such a big difference for this team. It really sets everything up. It really helps Eddie (Encarnacion) out behind him and those other guys to drive in runs when hes on base. What can you say? The last few years hes come into his own. Hes one of the top dogs out there.Estrada (8-6) allowed one run and four hits with four strikeouts over seven-plus innings. The Blue Jays have won three of his four starts against the Orioles this year.We used a lot of curveballs early on and they werent really swinging at it so I was able to get a few called strikes with that, Estrada said. I was able to locate a little better. I had a little better feel for my changeup today and just tried to throw strikes.J.J. Hardy provided Baltimores only run with his eighth homer in the third. But thats about all Baltimore could muster against Estrada.Weve had trouble with him for a while, Hardy said. He locates his pitches, kind of right on the top. His fastball is sneaky. He can elevate it. He can pitch down with it, and his changeup is a really tough pitch.Baltimore left-hander Wade Miley (8-11) allowed three runs and five hits while tying a season high with nine strikeouts over seven innings. He has lost three of six starts since being acquired from Seattle on July 31.We just got to play ball, Miley said. Weve got plenty of games against Toronto. Its in our own hands. We just got to play ball games.Miley retired the first 10 batters befoore allowing Donaldsons 34th home run. Lanny McDonald Jersey. Troy Tulowitzki gave the Blue Jays a 2-1 lead later that inning with an RBI single.Bautista provided a two-run cushion when he led off the sixth with his 16th homer, and that was all the support Estrada needed.He was like his old self, Gibbons said. Good changeup, he was hitting his spots. He threw more breaking balls I thought tonight, and they were pretty good.The Blue Jays added two more runs in the ninth on an RBI single by Justin Smoak and a fielders choice by Devon Travis off Tommy Hunter.LIGHTS OUTJoaquin Benoit, who was acquired from Seattle on July 26, pitched a perfect ninth for Toronto. Benoit has yet to allow a run in 14 games (13 1/3 innings) for the Blue Jays.NAVARRO RETURNSCatcher Dioner Navarro reported to the Blue Jays on Monday, three days after the club re-acquired him from the Chicago White Sox for LHP Colton Turner. Navarro played with Toronto in 2013-14 before signing with the White Sox in December.I was in shock when it happened and I was happy two minutes later because I was coming to an organization where I feel really comfortable and to a group of guys that I have good relationships with, said Navarro, who hit .210 with six home runs and 32 RBI in 85 games with Chicago.To make room, C Josh Thole was designated for assignment.TRAINERS ROOMOrioles: CF Adam Jones was out of the starting lineup for the third straight game with a left hamstring strain. ...
