Inexplicably, Mike McCarthy, who has the best red-zone quarterback in the league, then calls 3 consecutive runs for a grand total of 6 yards (all on the first play), and the Packers are forced to settle for a 19-yard field goal.

This is what I've been complaining about all season. Thanks for showing a concrete example of what I meant.
Mike McCarthy was very aggressive in '07. If that had been the '07 Mike McCarthy, you would have had 3 consecutive pass plays and one of them would have probably resulted in a TD to Driver or Gregorious.
In defense of Woody, that one play where he got burned you have to give more credit to Steve Smith than saying Woody screwed up. Steve Smith is superhuman. The guy is simply amazing. I don't think any other WR in the NFL would have caught that one, if I remember it correctly.
Sometimes you can do everything right but your opponent just simply bests you. Happens in tennis. Happens in football as well.
