McCarthy on the game

Re: McCarthy on the game

Yeah, it might be time to start giving some credit instead of blame. Look, some are gonna blame arod for the pick. That is wrong. He threw the ball where it needed to be. GJ has to beat his man, he can't allow the vikes db to win that battle. I've looked at it several times...he rounded the route off, he was a bit lazy, he looked surprised the ball was coming his way....but, all things say the same thing....our WR got beat.

I saw brett pump faking all night. better communication, a pump fake and go downfield and you've got six...

In order to pump fake you have to have time to pump fake. Let us know when arod has that time.

I'm even thinking that a solid fake or two while he's running for dear life may open something up. Then again it may have happened many times while I'm covering my eyes "oh dear god they're gonna kill him"

How should Ty know. Are you actually pretending that you know which QBs can win SBs?

Important to remember that Trent Dilfer won a SB while throwing for 1,502 yards, 12 TD's 11 Int's and a 76.6 rating. It's a TEAM game!!

I have to admit that my favorite out-of-this-world-absurd comment this week was the one where someone said Arod was holding the ball too long and taking sacks to 'pad his stats.' (or words to that affect). You have to go down a long twisty road to get to that destination.

"Holds on to the ball to long" is something you say about rookie tards who shit down their leg and get happy feet. Rodgers holds on to the ball because he's fearless and because he's trying to make plays a la Ben Roethlisberger. Rodgers can be a little slippery in the Pocket but Big Ben is straight up coated in lube.

I'd like him to be a little more aware but I still like how his focus is down field and I admire his courage. He's already a great player, now hes just got some wrinkles to iron out of his game.

QFT....this says it all. If ARod would give up on a few more downs when the line is sucking ass instead of rolling out of the pocket and making big plays....well, then he would take less sacks too. Its a mixed blessing.

I said last year I have never seen an immobile QB avoid sacks like big ben does...not wonder that host in reno never had a chance.

I love the duck and scoot move that he does. It works ridiculously well. I think he learned it after taking a lot of hits, though.
