What Happened To Grant?

[Pacopete4]

I think part of it was... McCarthy's dumbass running every first down...

was that crazy or what?? talk about being predictable. it was like only getting two plays to get a first-down.

Of 23 runs.. 17 of them were on 1st down... absolutely redic...

Yeah, dammit Mccarthy. Fucking idiot. Prolly the only coach in the NFL who likes to run on first down. Fuck him for trying to establish the run against a team who gave up 300 yards rushing to a team with a rookie QB. Guy is moron. Needs to be canned.

Predictable football is stupid.. don't know how else to say it.. but if you need a visual, see the Vikings games

I don't always agree with the MM's playcalling, but I didn't always agree with Holmgren's playcalling either. Two thoughts. First, the Packers offense produced 34 points today despite the predictable playcalling, plus 7 dropped passes. Second, the Packers are 19-3 in their last 22 regular season games with MM calling the plays.

Well... if you agreed with all of the playcalling, you'd likely be the coach calling the plays and in that case somebody else would disagree with the playcalling.

Quit bringing garbage like this to the discussion. Everyone knows that running on first down is predictable and boring. Wearing down the other teams DL early so you can own them late is foolish and never works. As a matter of fact every team in the NFL averages more per pass than per rush so we should ditch the run alltogether as it is less efficient.

The sarcasm is flowing, I love it.

Really????? Holy crap!

I'll just second the motion that Grant shouldn't have played today.

Everything I read all week described McCarthy wanting to sit Grant vs. the Lions but Grant was determined to play. Clearly Grant isn't ready to play. he needs to take next week off and reevaluate is hammy

[Carolina_Packer]

During the second half, I was yelling for them to take Grant out since the game looked in hand (until the Lions came back) Why risk it? They didn't need Ryan yesterday, but I'm sure he wanted to be out there. He did nothing to distinguish himself. BJack looked better than he has. Grant just needs to heal up.

Thanks for the belly laugh!!!!!!!!

Yeah, how soon people forget Mike "U-71" Sherman and his first down calls.
