Coach of the Year

[vince]

i'm not cherry picking or ignoring. i haven't liked his play calling from day one. his big play mentality over moving the chains, his stubornness at times to try to prove a point, predictabillity by using the shotgun too much, and more, is maddening to me at times.

So you don't like his plays because he doesn't call the plays/formations you would? Don't the actual results count for something gb? How can you argue with elite points, yards and time of possession in pretty much every year he's been in Green Bay?

I have a hard time saying someone was "out-coached" in a close loss. Close games are nearly always decided by a small handful of snaps and those small handful of snaps are never the reason to fire a coach. You'll very rarely lose a game because of Mike McCarthy.

Serious question: Did most Rats envision a win at Philly? I would have thought most put that one in the loss column. Can anyone find the prediction thread?

Example........did you watch the Badgers game yesterday ? Terrible time management and use of timeouts....a lot of questionable playcalling.....a vanilla bob defensive game plan to boot

I'd say bad field goal kicking and poor job of finding a throwing lane by Tolzien. I don't quite understand a few of the playcalls and definitely don't understand what appeared to be a prevent defense from the start of the game but the Badgers were a couple of individual efforts away from winning, so I'd say they were in a position to win. I'd also say that the better team won and that TCU clearly had Jesus on their side.

As bad as McCarthy's time management at the end of the Detroit game?

That had to be the worst use of 4 and a half minutes I ever saw.
