Stubby was a dud just for staying with Hundley the entire game. When Hundley hurt his fingers in the 4th quarter, it was a perfect opportunity to sit him down and throw Callahan in there.

One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

Ding ding ding. Is Callahan really worse than Hundley today? Why wouldn't you want to let Callahan shake the rust off?Originally Posted by Maxie the Taxi
I don't get the NFL thinking that benching a QB ruins his confidence. It's not elementary school.
MM had a game plan and he was going to stick with it.
His Team had an excellent week of Practise and the Packers were ready.
Mike McCarthy was in some new mild to serious form of SHOCK.
He absolutely had Dick All to lose going to Callahan. I really expected him to do that and demonstrate he wasn't 'a Sadist'.
Instead we saw he ws a Masochist.

This kind of talk makes me laugh. What makes some think Callahan would have been any better? I don't blame Stubby at all. Its hard to make chicken salad out of chicken shit.
Hundley is his chicken but when he was drafted they thought they could mold him like they did with Flynn. It sucks it didn't work but c'est la vie.
You said it yourself. What difference does it make? The season is tanked. Nobody knows how good Callahan is. He might be just as shit as Randy. We didn't know Randy was shit till we played him. So play Callahan and find out...or get somebody else. At least make the games less laughable.

Or let Hundley take his lumps and let him develop as a workable backup. It's not like they're looking for their QB of the future. M3 didn't do Hundley any favors today (apparently because he was afraid of their running game), but it didn't help that they lost 2 RTs and 2 RBs in the last few weeks.

The idea of spending my Sunday afternoons watching developmental football doesn't appeal to me. That game today was just not interesting or entertaining. For the first time in a long time I won't be eagerly awaiting next Sunday's game.

The best case scenario for Callahan would be developmental football.

Yup, but I figure there might be more fireworks, more action just because of Callahan's personality and that he's got nothing to lose. It's all about entertainment to me. The Packers are fielding a very, very inferior product. ...Maybe I'll watch soccer. Is bowling still on TV?

This is where I'm getting to as well. I didn't watch on Sunday as the Vikes were on at the same time, and it's not shown here except in a bar (and no Sunday Ticket, I cut the cord years ago). I'm getting to the point where I can't justify the time and money expense of watching the rest of this season in a bar. I'll watch the Pitts and MN games as those will be on regular TV, but the other 4, likely not.
All hail the Ruler of the Meadow!
This.
The only reason to stick with Hundley is if you think there's something there, and his play can improve. I didn't see a sign of that. If you think what's out there is what you've got, move on.
