More Banjo: Conference @ Atlanta

[Joemailman]

Has MM had the season ending press conference yet? I haven't heard it if so. Seems like it's late this year. Gotta wonder if that means some changes are coming - though I would have thought that would have leaked by now.

I was wondering the same thing. Last year it was Jan. 18, 2 days after losing to Arizona. Either something's up, or he's just decided to do all his exit interviews before the PC.

My guess he's considering coaching changes, and doesn't want to have to answer questions about it until he's made a decision.

You are kidding right ?

EVERY YEAR MM's end of the year presser is the same theme. We are evaluating and breaking the tape down and going through the process and have no news at this point.

Expect that tomorrow

I honestly don't think it would have mattered one iota, nor do I think the flu bug was an issue for Rodgers. He didn't run out of gas. He ran out of execution on a few key early plays and he ran out of defense.

I saw Jordy wincing in pain as the game progressed into the 2nd half. I'd say it was his ribs that took him out of the game and not the flu. Crosby missed a 41-yarder on the first series. It turned out to be a big miss. Who knows what it was attributable to but it's far from a slam dunk that it was due to the flu bug earlier in the week. It could have been but it's anything but certain. I'd even say it's unlikely to have been the flu from earlier in the week.

I don't understand you two madly debating the offense when clearly the defense sucked so hard and so deeply for so many games.

Simple. Of the two questions, sussing out problems on O is easier because failures of talent are fewer and father between.

I have no idea on defense. With many of the same parts, that defense played very well in 2014 and at the end of 2015 and at the beginning of 2016. Two of those streaks were without Raji. They also played some of the worst Defensive football I have ever seen during those times.

At this point I can't even begin to fathom how much injuries played a role.

Not sure how mad we are but that would be my point as well.

They announced Monday AM that it was Thursday. Not enough time to decide about changes. Possible that he was giving himself time to consider.

But two days after a playoff loss is doing player exit interviews in a hurry. Four days makes more sense to me.

Just to be clear, I wholeheartedly agree the defense is the bigger problem.

As far as the Atlanta game. The yards were there to be had in the middle of their defense, both running and passing. I bet Hoody will not pass that up like dumbass stubby.
