    4th and 2

    Game Theory and the Moby Iverson Formula say that McRetardy was better off going for it, especially with only 1 TO and 4 minutes left in the game.

    Orangutans are smarter than Mike McCarthy (and Tony O'Day; wanker asserted that Pack were gonna win 8 straight, or whatever).

    The season is over, according to Game Theory and the Moby Iverson Formula.

    Everything you wrote is dumb.

    Except that punting was idiotic in this situation.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    My IQ reaches 269 when it ain’t clouded by porn, so watch who you’re calling dumb.

    Remember the win or go home Chicago game a few years back? Dumb Mike wanted to punt on 4th and 2 in a similar situation. Great Arm of Butte, fresh off the collarbone injury, signaled for the fucking punter to get off the fucking field. Connected with Jordy to move chains. A few plays later, Butte threw the awesome bomb-6 to Cobb.

    With the season on the line, McCarthy opted to punt away the season. Oh fie, why the fuck didn’t Rodgers call off the punt this time?

    Maybe he wants to get M3 fired?

    Rewind it back to the 3rd down. Vinny Testaverde could've hopped off the couch and made that throw. In a vacuum, going for 4th and 2 from your own 33 with 4 minutes left is definitely high risk. Is that 4 down territory? If so, why not just just give it to Aaron Jones or do some 2 TE trickery? Two cracks running the ball (3rd & 4th down) would've been ok. Isn't that why we have Jamaal Williams?

    Also - the narrative of them ignoring A.Jones continues...both Rodgers and M3 are doing it.

    Got to disagree with this.

    We ran 43 plays last night and Jones touched the ball 17 times which works out to 39.5%. That is a healthy amount of touches.
    But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

    Still not understanding why Aaron Jones is played like he’s on a pitch count. Dynamic player. #Packers

    "After accounting for 88 total yards and two touchdowns in the first half in Seattle, Jones totaled just four rushes and two catches for a combined 15 yards in the second half. Making matters worse, with Rodgers struggling through the air as the game wore on, Green Bay abandoned the run game in the final quarter. Jones rushed just one time in the fourth quarter and twice over the Packers’ final three possessions. "

    We always hear MM say he wants offensive balance, and then we always see the opposite.

    Jones should have touched the ball 34 times. And he would have had the opportunity for more had more of those touches been on third downs.

    My numbers above are probably off because of sacks. Official box score has the Packers running 50 plays including penalties.

    We had 5 five drives and 23 plays in the 2nd half. That works out to 4.6 plays per drive. It is damn had to score averaging that.

    You would think that self preservation would kick into the game plan at some point.

    Bombs away ain't working for either coach or player. Everything was setup for a balanced approach to the second half. But you could see signs of the old offense after the first quarter again.

    Someone should show M3 his splits.

    Right about the time that the scripted plays ran out
