He's predictable. When he actually get a run play to work, he'll go back to the run for the next two plays. He never mixes things up or hasn't this year. He also throws on first-down way to often. That's one of the reasons why GB is in 3rd and long too much.

There is a difference between playcalling and managing a game or at least I think so. Going for it on fourth down, I agreed with except at the goaline. I do tend to like his aggressive nature. What I don't like is the plays he calls in the situations.

It gets very repetitive. I'd like to see a pass and run mix.

MM's play calling? lol,what a joke! every opening drive he runs on first down which always fails,calls a throw play that isnt tend to go further then 3 yards,and then(if we arent penalized for holding) he calls a predictable throw play that has all our WR's covered for the most part which leads to a sack or incompletion..Now if we tend to get a penalty on 3rd down and its 3rd and long,he calls a stupid draw play which doesnt fool anyone at all...then on certain plays he throws when we should run and runs when we should throw...seriously,even all the crap i just wrote is mostly true,the one thing that pisses me off the most about MM's play calling is his lack to use the TRUE West Coast Offense like he did in 2007...i mean when's the last time we threw those quick slants and let our talented WR's do the work? Mike McCarthy has Rodgers bombing it for some weird reason...Our screen plays have been working alot this year and makes up for a lack of running game yet we rarely use them...Our TE's are open for the most part yet we dont use designed plays to get them in the game as much as we should..This offense has no limits but MM's play calling makes it seem like we have limits...

i don't have problem with his playcalling...of course he makes some mistakes but everyone makes that...

i just think most of times we have problem making adjustment in the halftime...

last week mike nolan threw his defense playcalling to earth in the halftime during patriots - broncos and denver got a new winning defense...

we have to able to change our assett if the game needs that

making adjustments has to do with half time adjustments/play calling...you just unintentionally contradicted yourself...I swear Packer fans have a 90% chance to call plays that Mike McCarthy is going to make...That is not good at all...That means if we knew some basic D schemes,we can counter Mike McCarthy from the comforts of our homes...

Predictability! My better half can be in the kitchen bakin' cookies, and she'll tell me what's coming next!

Ok, I lied, but you know what I mean!

The only aspect of Mccarthy's playcalling I really have a problem with is the fact that he gets away from running the ball far too often. I mean I can't really blame him because he's cut his teeth in the NFL through the passing game and has a beavy of weapons at WR and TE with a great QB but running the ball efficiently would make our Offense even more deadly. I also think Mccarthy goes to the long ball a bit too often, our Offense is at it's best when we're dinking and dunking down the field with those short/medium-range passes, which in turn opens up oppurtunities to hit the long ball as the Defenders come up trying to shut down the intermediate passing game.

I wonder sometimes if McCarthy overthinks things when he calls plays.

If he too readily does the "They think we're going to do X, so let's do Y."

He hasn't watched the iocane powder scene in The Princess Bride. It's not about being smarter....the other guy is smart, too...it's about dominating and kicking the crap out of the other guy. It's not about finesse and , it's about imposing your will and making the other team beat you.

McCarthy's problem may be that he is *too* smart.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
