McCarthy's Playcalling

probably already asked, but why did MM switch the tackles?

He just wanted to see if we were paying attention.

These are some of the things you'd just love to know the truth on.... I was laughing my ass off and was quite impressed that it worked.

I played OL in high school. Not sure I could've done that on the fly. Foot work is completely backwards. I was, and still am, impressed.

I was OK with how the half ended. There were twenty some seconds left and our only chance was a prayer bomb. Jones Dropped our real shot.

i'm thinking we were pretty close to fg range and we still had a TO.

Packers were at their own 32. They likely would have needed to be at about the Eagles 25 to try a field goal, considering they were going into the wind. So if by close you mean 40-45 yards away, then I guess they were pretty close.

M3 threw to many uncatchable passes. Other than that, he did OK.

On at least one play Sunday, coach Mike McCarthy had offensive tackles Chad Clifton and Bryan Bulaga switch positions. McCarthy said the move was made for a particular run match-up he was looking for. He didn't say whether he would be doing it again. Packers RapidReports

The mystery is solved.

The mystery is solved.

Rather unexciting.

I was hoping for something bizarre and mysterious.

not to beat a dead horse (well...maybe a little), just watched the replay of the philly game on nfl network. i know they edit the game pretty good but can someone correct me if i'm wrong...from the brandon jackson td midway in the third quarter on, how many passes did AR attempt/complete? the replay showed one...a completion to driver...there was the sack of AR also. so that's it...2? in a quarter and a half? two three and outs and one seven and out?

It was three attempts, one in each drive. One complete, one incomplete and one sack. Starks got one first down and Rodgers got the other in those drives. Not counting the victory formation, those drives cost the Eagles 2 TOs and 2 minutes of clock on Drive 3 (4:02 to 2:00 minute warning), Drive 2 was 4:15 and Drive 1 was 1:35.

The one Rodgers' incompletion, if you can assume 45 seconds ticking off, basically allowed the last Vick throw to Cooper.

If Stubby beats Hoody it's time for you to start worshipping Stubby........lol

[Joemailman]

Stubby almost beat Hoody with Matt Flynn at QB. Maybe he deserves a little more respect...

[Bretsky]

Stubby has my respect and probably deserves more from most in here

There is only one Hoody

This week Hoody gets to use Mouthy as his Biatch

I think everyone admits M3 is a good coach but I think some have the same problem I do. Basically, is he the James Jones of NFL head coaches? Does he do something great only to follow it up with something that maybe messes up the flow and makes you forget about the great thing he just did?
