FWIW, Lombardi said big mistake in '60 champ game was going for TD 4th & 1 1st half. His rule of thumb: kick 1st half, go for it 2nd half

Argument ended! #AppealToAuthority

GB-SEA game demonstrates the importance of not settling for FGs, 4th down TDs, onside decisions, and 2-pt tries. Ted Thompson, call me.

Shermy tried that early 4th and 1 and failed, and then bailed on the late 4th and one. Pure anecdotal confirmation. n=1

By the way, plenty of NFL players duck the media after a rough loss, including Packers. @Bostick11 stood up and faced it. Stand up guy.

OK.....let him back on the plane and then cut him !

Slocum....trick that guy into jumping onto a plane for the North Pole !!

Woodbuck, you cannot question the playcalling publicly after a loss. That just undermines confidence further. You do this with your season end post-mortem in house. Not in public. If you make changes, you talk about them in the Spring.

SOP.

He might have responded more honestly.

ie There is a lot I might take exception with myself after taking the time to really examine it all. Thanks.


His terse response certainly is inappropriate.

Brian's site went down and he was looking for "surge demand" solutions... at only 1 million hits for the *night*. He's probably looking for funding so he can move his heavy CMS-based solution to Heroku or some other demand-scaling platform.

Host Gator ain't working for him.

Let's try the Worst Playoff Losses In #Packers History List again:
5. 2007 NFCCG
4. SBXXXII
3. "The Catch II" by T.O.
2. 4th-and-26

You can blame yourself until you're blue in the face for every mistake but that doesn't make you right about where the blame lies. There isn't a coach in human history that could coach up a team of 5th grade girls to perform perfectly.

I agree that a change is overdue with the Special Teams coach, even though I'm completely in the dark about how much blame actually lies with Slocum. Shit ain't right? Blame the coach. That's pretty easy. Shit ain't right a lot? Probably more likely my stab-in-the-dark guess about the real effectiveness of the coach is more accurate.

It's the players, not the plays. I agree, Vince.

A full and absolute 3 minute collapse. It doesn't get any worse than that.

Don't forget 51-45 in 2009. Packers have a knack for these gut-wrenching playoff losses.

Host Gator ain't working for him.

So much for unlimited bandwidth, as promised by their Business Plan.

He's outgrowing the Mom-Pop-and-Uncle-Rico Solutions. A million hits for a night is nothing to sneeze at but it's still relatively small potatoes by current web-scale standards.

I haven't been paying real close attention, but didn't he start offering a "realtime" analysis bit? Like team WPA based on the PBP feed from NFL.com?

[Packgator]

Doesn't matter. It came down Bostick and Slocum and they failed.

Bostick didn't make the play but I don't blame him for the loss. The play that won this game for Seattle was the TD on the fake FG. You cannot allow that to happen in that situation. A fake is the one and only thing you are looking for on that play. That play turned everything around and gave the Seahawks hope.
