Cardinals put Mike McCarthy, Packers in their place

What were they thinking?: McCarthy left quarterback Aaron Rodgers in game even with the Packers down by 30 points and a patchwork offensive line giving up sacks left and right. Rodgers was sacked eight times – his most since the 2012 Fail May game in Seattle – before McCarthy finally pulled Rodgers in favor of Scott Tolzien with 9:56 left in the game.

It seemed to me that Mike tried to pull Aaron, but Aaron overruled him. If that is the case, then it suggests that Aaron is disobeying Mike's authority. It may also mean that Mike has just plain out lost control of this team, or at least his QB.

One reason to panic: The Packers’ offensive line is as banged up as ever. In addition to playing without starting left tackle David Bakhtiari, the Packers lost starting right tackle Bryan Bulaga (ankle) in the second half. That left them with Don Barclay and Josh Walker at the two tackle spots. Walker struggled so much that JC Tretter replaced him at right tackle. Also, right guard T.J. Lang twice limped off the field but managed to return.

So Bakhtiari hasn't practiced since being injured. For all we know he's out for the duration. Now Bulaga also went down. We HAVE no more Ts on this team.

We need a WR to step up and make some big plays.

Ty Montgomery was doing that until he went down. Adams is having a terrible sophomore year.

Glad To Be A Packers Fan.

Whenever this schedule came out I figured this would be tough. Consecutive west coast trips, between Christmas, against good teams. They got killed, I'm not necessarily stunned.

That said, this just reinforces the same talent concerns we've had for months. Aaron is off, lacy is fat, and the wrs are having an epically bad year. There isn't much light for 2016.

“We’ll respond. I’m not concerned with that. I have great belief in our players. This isn’t time for big-picture analysis. The two losses, Denver and here, are ugly. You can’t do negative fundamentals in games like this. Good teams like Arizona make you pay for it,” McCarthy added.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

There are no shocking revelations here. We know what all of our weaknesses are. That is actually what is scary because them being so numerous on the offensive side of the ball will make it easy for great defenses to do this to us. We just got our asses beat by the team I believe to be the best in the NFL. That was a dominating defensive performance and our protection unit was absolutely no match.

Circular Arguments: They are a heck of an annoyance

That wasn't my intention. I was simply exploring my thoughts regarding today's game.

Hey Mike, the Cardinals Defense gave me and others 40 fantasy points, 9 pts for 9 sacks,,,9 sacks? 1 pt for the INT that Rodgers should have never thrown, 3 pts for 3 fumble recoveries. 3 fumbles? were they intentional?, 2 pts for the 2 td returns, and 8 pts for holding your playoff contenders to a whopping 8pts. Sounds like your contract won't be re-extended with the players quitting on you.

Martha Careful (14h) : Yes, in the military S2’s work on IPB, PERCEC, PHYSEC and IO

dfosterf (4-May) : FYI civilian companies swipe the S2 designation from the military. S2 is the intelligence branch up to brigade level. G2 is division level.

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning

Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?

beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.

beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.

dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition

Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.

beast (4-May) : NFL really needs to fix their position labeling issue, but I don't think they care

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Packers did not activate the fifth-year options for linebacker Quay Walker, with the goal of signing him to a contract extension.

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Matthew Golden spoke with Randall Cobb before draft. Looked like chance encounter.

packerfanoutwest (1-May) : from a head left turn?

packerfanoutwest (1-May) : someone drunk?

Zero2Cool (1-May) : Unlikely.

dfosterf (30-Apr) : How long until Jeff Sperbeck's family sues John Elway ?

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : Packers are exercising the fifth-year option on DT Devonte Wyatt, locking in a guaranteed $12.9M for the 2026 season.

beast (30-Apr) : Sounds like P Luke Elzinga has a rookie try out opportunity from the Titans

dfosterf (30-Apr) : Luke Elzinga Punter Oklahoma stil unsigned. Green Bay has been mentioned as good fit

beast (30-Apr) : The Packers re-signed three exclusive rights free agents WR Melton, P Whelan and RB Wilson.

Martha Careful (28-Apr) : RIP Packer Safety Tim Brown

beast (27-Apr) : Yeah, but also some of the wording suggestions Jax only pranked called the QB, not the others... and if he had an open spreadsheet & 3 calls

beast (27-Apr) : Thank goodness he's not leaving the Turtle in the Red Tide

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Cowboys 1st round pick Tyler Booker will indeed be bringing his pet turtle to Dallas with him

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : that contained all prospects info and contact

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : beast, according the Falcons statement Jax came across it on an ipad. If I had to guess, probably an open spread sheet or something

Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Simmons put up an emoji with cheese.

beast (27-Apr) : Not sure anyone is interested in Isaiah Simmons... Collin Oliver might of taken his potential slot

beast (27-Apr) : I'm going with Jax Ulbrich is not telling the whole truth... he accidentally came across it? Why would a defensive coordinator have a QB #?

Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : He's not that great, but final piece of the script.\

Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : If we add Isaiah Simmons, book your Super Bowl tickets

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Colts 1st round TE Tyler Warren also got prank called, was that Jax Ulbrich as well?

Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Jax Ulbrich, Jeff Ulbrich’s son, released an apology for his role in the Shedeur Sanders prank call.

Martha Careful (27-Apr) : apparently he did not participate in practice or play on the east west shrine game nor the NFL combine. The kid was a mediocre spoiled brat

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Yeah that one that was a super wounded duck that Sanders supporters are highlighting to prove a point

Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Shough is the guy who missed guys at combine isn't he?

Mucky Tundra (26-Apr) : Was that for the team or the city?
