It comes down to end game and how to properly close out.
Championship teams have that down pat.
The leadership of the Green Bay Packers is obviously lacking in this vital response. This wasn't just one of those things. This is a proof of why the Mike McCarthy era will be dominated by such mistakes. As soon as that sideline celebration got started someone had to stop it and get the entire team focused on finishing the game.
That's Basic Understanding of Pro Sports 101. What happened in Seattle was just ridiculous. Taken as a whole it falls on the head of Mike McCarthy. He must now react correctly. There has to be certain change.
I want to see a head coach in Green Bay that is strong in his understanding of solid team defense and ST's play. I want an OC that can call a better offensive game.
I'm realistic and know that as long as Ted Thompson is in place as the Packers GM that won't happen. My only realistic hope is that somehow Mike McCarthy quits. Observing McCarthy's ways, manners and attitude that doesn't seem like that will happen.
Rah rah rah !
Another NFCN Championship in 2015 and more playoff futility. It's easy to predict failure and certainly so when your team has a head coach with his head in the sand. Who has a neat and easy explanation coming from a deameanor that fails right here.
Mike McCarthy doesn't absolutely HATE to lose. A total team collapse was "a fun game" to Mike McCarthy.
The two are incongruent.
I'm absolutely positive that when Aaron Rodgers observed Mike McCarthy's response and 'a fun game' he must have:
a) been in total shock and simply threw his hands in the air.
b) Screamed and cursed.
c) broke something that was handy to get his hands on.
Mile McCarthy and Aaron Rodgers are just not close to one another in terms of intelligence. Their miles apart in terms of being honest and direct with the truth. Unless Mike McCarthy somehow arrives right there fast ...you can count on more of what you've been seeing since the green bay packers last won a Super Bowl.
NO...another NFCN championship isn't enough ! Not now or certainly not after blowing it in Seattle.
