(Non-knee jerk) I don't think MM should call the plays

[SkinBasket]

I'll need another game of Mike forgetting we can throw the football before I discount the offense he was calling in the preseason.

I'll keep him. Third and one and he throws a bomb for a touchdown. And a 2-pt conversion.

Ya I give him another week

i still feel the same way about his play calling...hate it. he took a phone call from Bart Starr just before the third and one game winner.

Dom's playcalling on the other side of the ball wasn't a whole lot better today either.

But, as far as MM goes, who would you trust calling the plays if it isn't him? Philbin?

No opinion I don't have the knowledge to make a statement like that. I don't care for his playcalling, I can tell you that, at least.

lmao at this bump

They lost mainly because Rodgers made too many mistakes. He cost them 13 points.

Only if you expect him to be flawless on every single play, which is an unreasonable standard for any player, and not one that is ever brought up for anyone except QBs.

I don't know where your 13 points come from, the two turnovers lead to only 3; so I assume your other 10 come from incompletions he threw.

You could just as easily say that Jennings made too many mistakes and cost the Packers 14 points. Per the announcers, he did not come out of his move hard, and slowed up on the deep pass in the first half that was barely overthrown. On the last drive he didn't fight hard enough through a brief, weak pass interference grab on his arm and didn't catch a perfectly thrown pass. It was against his body anyway, and could have been held with a good, not even great, catch.

If you apply the same standards to Jennings as you do to Rodgers, you can blame him for the loss. Truth is, there is a lot of "blame" to be shared among the players and the coaches in most losses, and certainly in this one.

The only way GB can win is if Rodgers is perfect. They just are not a good team. They are more like mediocre under achievers and they can forget the playoffs until they learn to quit taking turns with the mental errors.

There is a lot of blame to go around but Rodgers' mistakes were the most crucial.

Jenning was running a deep button hook and when he saw no one was behind him he took off. He is a glider so maybe he looks like he isn't running full speed but he is. Rodgers needs to learn to take his time and put air under that pass and it is a easy TD.

He held the ball too long and didn't see the guy right in front of him and failed to protect the ball. That's 3.

The momentum killing interception cost at least 3. That's 13.

I saw other mistakes from him also. He made some plays but he has to play better.

Rodgers admitted the loss was on him.

I'm confused

glad to see this bumped... nothing's changed offensively from a coaching standpoint

Do you like the play calling? If so, how is it geared towards capitalizing on our strengths and moving away from our weaknesses? Our OL sucks, yet we run right between the tackles, when we decide to run. we can't pass block, yet instead of quick slants and stunts we're throwing into triple coverage downfield or taking sacks.

Couldn't McCarthy do a better job of that? What am I missing? Sincerely, I respect your opinion, but Vanilla Bob is gone and it morphed to Vanilla Mike from my vantage point.

i called for mm to give up play calling three years ago. last year i called for his firing.
