More Banjo: @ Seahawks NFC Championship ***k Up

[mraynrand]

I'm guessing getting those girls to do what you coach them to do doesn't always work. It works a lot better at the NFL level but there isn't a coach in history whose ever gotten their players to always do what they've coached them to do. People are people. Guys (and girls) make mistakes and/or fail to execute no matter how perfect the coaching is. Obviously not all coaches are created equal, but blaming the coach when teams lose is usually misguided. Not always - but usually.

Yeah, for Bostick it was both a physical and mental error - he didn't do what the coaches told him to do. I do feel sorry for him - he has to live with it every day for the rest of his life.

It undoubtedly does NOT always work. And when it does not I share in the blame. Today we went 2-1. The two teams we barely beat IMO were better than the team we lost to. I take part of the blame there

When patterns formulate...with the same coach..over and over....it's not hard to find justifiable blame

C'mon Vince.

How many times do you need to see Slocum's units screw up before you fault him for it? 438? 671? We've got to be getting close by now, aren't we??

[woodbuck27]

Vince nailed that one.

Yes he did.

Bostick: "It wasn't my job at all. I was supposed to block. I just reacted to the ball and thought I could get it. Obviously, I couldn't."

OUCH!

They are who we thought they were.....and I let them off the hook:

[Harlan Huckleby]

In home game, Rodgers can audible to more aggressive plays.

As Seinfeld would say, "Newman!" - Buffalo!

[Joemailman]

I'm guessing Rodgers and MM not sitting next to each other on the plane ride home.

CAN YOU ELABORATE ON YOU NOTING THE OFFENSE WAS NOT AS AGGRESSIVE AS YOU ARE USED TO

:NO I CAN NOT:

Does problem rhyme with "bat bike"?

OK, let's count the one play that could have turned the game un-losable.

1. Kuhn scores on goalline
2. Lacy scores on goalline
3. Cobb catches low slant but still gets first down
4. Quarless catches the 3rd down pass
5. Blown coverage on Lynch's wheel route that put them on the 9 yard line.

Rodgers hits Nelson on the out route in the end zone.

#6 hurt. He was open but stumbled a bit. That split second might have put the ball right on his outstretched hand.

WASN'T THERE A INTERCEPTION MISS BY HAHA AS WELL ??

Yes but it was followed by an INT from Burnett, wasn't it?

[mraynrand]

I'm still stunned that they didn't go after Sherman. One of those flat runs like they gave DuJuan Harris in 2012, with the WRS blocking away would have been nice. A pass at him would have been nice. Gawd this is a terrible loss to have to think over. Worse than 4th and 26.

[pbmax]

Did the known problems of the team cause the defeat?

1. Red Zone issues - check
2. Special Teams screwups - check (despite a good day of coverage and tackling)
3. Receivers can't shake man coverage quickly - check
4. Late D meltdown - check

Point #1 was the biggest factor. The Packers should have at least been up by 24 at halftime. Bostick channeling his inner Ed West on the onside kick and not attacking a 1-armed Sherman and the D just collapsing at the end are the next culprits.

Except for the SB year, hasn't the D collapsed in every playoff loss since then?

2009, yes.
2010, no
2011, wash (the offense was also putrid)
2012, absolutely
2013, gave up the FG drive.
2014, yep

The only reason the Packers are in the 49er, Boys and Seachicken game is the defense.
