You have a much better chance with the ball in his hands and a minute then you do with 8 or 5 seconds and a kickoff.

Normally yes.

But not when you are in as hostile an environment as Chicago, have Tackles that are playing terrible, and your top two playmakers have been dealing with cramps.

you are completely leaving out the fact that Rodgers had been effectively moving the team down the field. OL play and cramping is irrelevant if Rodgers is still moving the ball regardless.

You take Rodgers with a minute over hoping to block an extra point 10 times out of 10 no matter what.

I for one can't wait to hear McCarthy try to justify this.

Rodgers had lead this team on several extremely long drives. Had it not been for the penalties on the tackles, Rodgers would have had at least one more TD pass. Mike McCarthy essentially slapped this offense in the face by refusing to give it the chance to make a last-ditch stand.

Fuck Mike McCarthy's "defense-first" mentality. This team's strength is its offense, no matter what his philosophy might tell him.

True.

Leroy Butler has also on previous occasions come out and stated that McCarthy does have a habit of not putting the ball in the hands of his best player in key moments.

What really burns me up is ignoramuses will say that Chicago dominated the Packers, when precisely the opposite is true.

I posted this comment in another thread but I have to say that on the local ESPN post game show here in Chicago Steve Mongo McMichaels couldn't stop repeating that the Packers gave this game to the Bears and so did most of the callers I heard. Even the reporter they had at the game agreed. Not a bit of gloating, I was surprised.

I was screaming at the tv to let them score!! Right when the game was over I knew this topic would be number 1. That was stupid. Just because a kicker missed an extra point distance FG the week earlier? That was why it made the news.... it rarely happens.

My jaw dropped to the floor when they stopped Forte at the 1 yard line. I was about ready to break the TV.

At Chicago with Peppers terrorizing our Tackles and our two best playmakers cramping up (A-Rod and J-Mike)... I just do not think we had even a slight shot at scoring a TD.

One play is all it takes. Also, Rodgers scrambled quite well for a TD after starting to "Cramp up". His mobility wasn't that impaired. But yes, the O line was the big question. But it's not like we didn't put impressive drives together despite penalties. No way I can argue that praying for a fumble or missed XP is more rational than trusting our offense.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : It's my one day deal complaint dept. on shareholder meeting day

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : In your face, HBO!

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @ByRyanWood Mark Murphy: “A great source of pride of mine is that we were never on Hard Knocks.”

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : *years

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @mattschneidman Mark Murphy says he anticipates “many Packers games” being played in Germany, Ireland and/or the U.K. over the next 5-10 yea

dfosterf (25-Jul) : *cafeteria* I have hit my head also, so I sympathize

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Maybe a low flying drone

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim

Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?

Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : tbh I didn't hear of his passing

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Cosby Show. Malcom Jamal Warner I think is real name

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : How is Theo alliteration?

Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Bad week for people whose names are alliterations

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hulk Hogan gone too.

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Oh, it's toe injury

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hope it's not serious. that would stink

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Sounds like an ankle not a knee for Fields

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Ya Flaccp on Browns

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Maybe Tyrod Taylor instead

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : He's on Browns, right?

dfosterf (24-Jul) : They would probably go with Flacco is my guess if Fields out

dfosterf (24-Jul) : Fleece 'em again!

Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Malik Willis might be someone Jets come after

packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Packers introduce 1923-inspired classic uniform, leather-look helmet

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Happy to see site feels more snappy snappy

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : No sir. I did not.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?

wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.

dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty

wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.

Mucky Tundra (23-Jul) : Wasn't the locker room just updated like 6 or 7 years ago?

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : I have forum updated on different site. We'll see how this one goes before going to that

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Elgton Jenkins has a back injury, is expect to end contract dispute

wpr (23-Jul) : It's funny the PA complained about the locker room. It wasn't that long ago it was top shelf. Things change in a hurry.

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.
