Question about a play in Titans game

[The Gunshooter]

MM decisions on the first and last 4th downs were bad. The first one MM was too predictable and TN had the right defense called, the momentum was broken with the timeout by Rodgers and GB had no confidence in picking up a long yard on the ground on 4th down. You have to punt there. Throwing to Finley on any 4th down is dubious at best. What MM should of done is run left in the first place or Rodgers should of just took it himself and run left. GB would of easily made the first down IMO given the overload on the strong side. You can't run the ball 5 times in a row to the right and then again on 4th down. A good coach will take that away just when you need it most and Fischer outcoached MM there.

I thought MM said they had the right play called for the defense that the Titans came out in? Execution was bad. The Packers have not shown much of an ability to pick up a long yard or two on the ground in situations like that recently.

At the end of regulation I would of went for it. What you say? Simply because you play for the win on the road and play for the tie at home. For all you young 'uns that is one of those old saying like "defense wins championships".

With the ball at the 43, 4th down and 8 yards to go, 2 minutes remaining, I think you have to punt. 8 yards is a long way to go on fourth down. The Packer's defense had throttled the Titans in the second half, giving up just 57 yards, The last two Titan possessions had been 3 and out. If the defense holds after the punt the Packers could have had the ball near midfield with time enough remaining for a field goal drive.

Things are different in the 2 minute drill. They did stop them but by then they were exhausted. Once they lost the coin flip it was all over. The good teams have a way of turning it up a notch when you take the lead or tie them and TN scored in like 3 plays when GB went up 10-6. You could make the argument that it doesn't matter what MM decided because the players couldn't execute it anyway.

If you have a great defense and can run the ball well you play conservative. If you can't do that you better be very aggressive. TN is excellent at being conservative because that is what they are designed for. GB sucks at being conservative.

That's an old baseball maxim.

Maybe we should have bunted in the bottom of the 10th, eh?

How about showing a little respect? Oh that's right, you are from KY, whatever the fuck that is.

Easy there, Shooter,

Was just pullin' yer chain.

Everybody knows ya don't bunt with two out.

haven't seen this brought up anywhere and was wondering about a different play so i thought i'd see what ya'll think... it looked to me that on one of the passes to the rookie finley, i believe it was the one in the endzone, i thought it looked like jordy nelson was lined up on the opposite side (with no DD or GJ lined up)... if this is correct, why did MM have two rookies split out wide inside the 20 on such a critical down and distance play?... that doesn't make a lot of sense to me and wondered if anybody else noticed...
