Many football games have a pivotal, or turning point, which ultimately decides the outcome of the game.
The turning point in the Eagles-Packers game occurred when Charles Woodson was injured and Ahmad Carroll came in to fill his posiition. The Eagles immediately and successfully went to Carroll's area of the field. The result was completed pass after completed pass along with a couple of crucial touchdowns.
The Packers' Achillies Heel represented by Ahmad Carroll was particularly evident to announcer and former QB, Joe Theismann. Time and time again, McNabb threw to the receiver covered by Carroll.
A loss is certainly a team effort but the glaring shortcomings of an individual can undermine that team effort.
It may be hasty to cut Carroll right away. Carroll's abysmal performance suggests, however, that this may be his last season with the Packers.
