I think this article makes a lot of good points, but also misses at least one. How bold of a change was the practice schedule adjustment last year? A shorter week in an attempt to reduce injuries seemed to work out pretty well in its first year. Fingers crossed for another year without a significant injury problem.
And I don't really want to start a big argument about the play-calling business, but I think McCarthy is really good at it. Nobody likes to blame the players, but aren't they the ones that let us down in the final minutes in Seattle?
As Lombardi used to say: "The big word in professional football is execution. All plays succeed on the blackboard, but men make them work".
