I honestly think the Cards played sub-vanilla last week on purpose. I think Arizona's intent was twofold.

1. To not show us any of their key plays such as the multiple looks of stacking of receivers on offense.

2. To let last weeks lost fester and build some serious desire to beat us the following week. I don't think our comments during the week helped in this department.

I think we got outsmarted a bit due to our lack of experience and over confidence. We will not make the same mistake again.

BTW, I am rooting for the Saints next weekend.

Some of it is gameplanning. Those WR bunch plays are examples of that.

But that's only as far as making a catch goes. The constant missed tackles, untimely penalties, missed FG, interception and fumbling are not something you gameplan for or against.

It's simply a matter of executing your gameplan. We didn't do that. Coupled with the fact that Wisenhunt already naturally had the gameplan advantage, it is incredible that the Packers with Rodgers even made it as far as OT.

The only dive taken was by the Packer defense.

Warner threw 6 passes last week. Leinart played most of the game. They showed us nothing of what they were gonna do in the playoffs on offense and their defense had something extra in it which helped them get up big on us. This helped them bum rush us in the first half till our offense settled down.

Totally agree. McCarthy went against conventional wisdom and paid the price.

Bingo. The players, along with a lot of the fans, expected the Cardinals to just roll over again. I feared the players would be over confident, and thats exactly what happened.

Interesting. I mentioned this after that last game of the season. I was blasted by a couple of your members on PPO. I was right.

Yep. Certainly we fans got over-confident - the vast majority seemed to think it wasn't even a contest. Not being in their heads, I can't say for certain the players were over-confident, but they sure looked shell-shocked after that first quarter, which would indicate they didn't expect what they got.

We played them in 2 meaningless games and then made the mistake of thinking that the results of those games were truly indicative. Whoops.

I posted virtually nothing on the game because I figured I'd be labeled a Nervous Nelly or a Debbie Downer. But given this team's checkered history in big games, I was uneasy about the game all week.

I knew it wouldn't be easy but I was pretty darn sure that we had the better chances. Over confidence killed the club in the first half ... it might be a big loss now but it could be a bigger gain for the future of the club.
Glad To Be A Packers Fan.
