#1 - OL sucked. Across the board. Clifton is done, he needs to be pulled.
#2 - Minnesota defensively had a great plan. They said you can't run the ball, so they had their 4 DL guys go as hard and fast as they could straight up field. We made no adjustment to that.
#3 - Our defense played pretty well. Adrian Peterson is one of those guys that will get his yards, you just gotta contain him. But, again we made no adjustments. 2nd half Minny came out 3 wide, moving our LB's out, and continued to do the same stuff they did in the 1st half. Out schemed us.
#4 - No attempt at the running game. Chad Clifton kills our Running game by himself, but that's besides the point. McCarthy allows no chance to improve and no chance to get any momentum going in the running game. 1st down we get 8 yards, then we throw the next 2 plays. What the hell is that? PROBABLY Aaron Rodgers fault there though huh?
#5 - ZERO creativeness. Predictable when they run the ball, predictable when the throw the ball. I'm sure it's not the case, but it does seem as though we are running the same run plays and the same pass plays all the time. We run digs, hitches, comebacks, and slants. We have an occasional go route or deep posts/flags, but generally nothing different. Everytime we ran 5 wide, we ran 5 slants, most of them were to Driver in the middle...and the MLB never moved on any of those plays. I don't know what McCarthy was expecting, but whatever he was expecting, didn't work, but he didn't change. Running the ball is gross. Last week we ran 3 inside counter plays for 37 yards....what the hell? Why don't we do that 30 times? Today we ran 2 toss zones (zone play but instead of a hand off, it's a pitch) for 26 yards. Again, what the hell?
#6 - Refs were horrible. BS safety call. BS illegal contact on Al Harris. NO illegal contact when Jennings got tripped. Adrian Peterson kept taking his helmet off on the field.
#7 - I like Bishop...but wouldn't Chillar be a better choice as our #4 LB?
#8 - Yes, Rodgers struggled...but how does this game become his fault? I guess I just don't get it. The man is getting creamed, and so many people expect him to just hang in there and be comfortable. I find it hard to blame the man.
#9 - LB's! Barnett cannot get off blocks. Poopinga still takes horrible angles. Hawk needs to stop thinking...He's a reactionary player, I tend to feel Sanders "defense" has taken away his aggressiveness, wanting him to stay in his lanes, and other bs like that.
#10 - More on the use of our RB's & TE's. When do we throw to RB's? Answer: 3rd and long, dump off to Brandon Jackson...and that's it. Teams know if they bring the house, we keep our RB's & TE's in, leaving only 2 or 3 WR's to go for a pass. Match up your DB's & send 8 guys, gotta get rid of the ball quickly, which weirdly enough...Minnesota did early & often.
