Mike McCarthy is NOT the answer.

MM is way too soft and appears to me stiff on the sidelines.

Viva Viagra.

I'm really starting to question McCarthy. I wasn't a believer in 2006. In 2007, I thought I might have been wrong about him.

This out of control penalty stuff is really concerning me. These guys don't fear getting penalized, at all.

Not good.

The penalties don't bother me. Not until I can see real correlation between penalties and record. All the correlative tendencies I have seen show there is no correlation. So I'm not worried about that. I'm worried about the friggin' execution by the players on the field, starting with the OL (Campen).

It seems like a lot of the defensive penalties extend drives and the offensive ones end them.

Yeah, but until I see a higher correlation between the most penalized teams and the worst records in the league, I won't be concerned. Of the articles I've read, it seems there is little correlation between penalties and overall wins/losses.

Ty posted something about this as well, a ways back.

Can't remember exactly, but good teams win, regardless of penalties. However, if you look at the teams that make the playoffs, the percent definitely favors the less penalized.

It's hard to argue with this kind of statement.
