My first reaction when I read the subject line was "WTF?"

And my second? Does McCarthy have an effin' clue right now?

I mean, this team has problems up the wazoo and he's calling out Eddie Lacy?

W T effin' F ? ! ? ! ? !

That's why MM is coaching and you are not.

Lacy is a smart guy who knows he has to play badly to stay on the field, we can all see what happens to Starks every time he makes a good play.

Which lineman was it that fumbled the ball? The one that was returned for a TD?

Of course he has to play better. They all do. We truly don't know how good or bad Lacy is playing as we don't know what he is supposed to do every play. Maybe he missed his pass blocking assignment 4 times on Sunday. Maybe he released the wrong direction for the check down. MM would know. We don't.

Don't read too much into this statement by MM. They all have to do better.

Can Lacy do better, sure. But it just seems harsh to be calling him out in particular. Look at where he gets hit relative to the line of scrimmage, for example. Jim Taylor was the greatest Packer runner in my lifetime. He would have difficulty running behind this OL the way they are performing. McCarthy wants to call out some one? He should call out the OL to get their heads out of their ass.

Kinda feel like he's throwing Lacy under the bus.

Dude runs hard. He's not being set up to be successful. The Loins were clearly keying on him. Yet no misdirection, no screens. Everybody knows he's just a decoy, enabling Aaron to continue throwing deep.

NOTE: f*ck the Bears.

Lacy didnt anything wrong last game - fairly got his big mitt in that ball and stripped it and as far as our 1 yard run; geez we didnt give lacy a chance and no way would I have run that play; short pass away from the QB.

its not on lacy, its on the oline period !! the guy runs his but off and takes 2-4 hits every play, the oline has to do a better job !!

He is a big back and should be running between the tackles not trying to bounce outside. But yes it is partially on the oline and also on MM. Plus I think its time for a change at HC because MM has lost this team. He is fighting with Favre Jr oops I mean Rodgers and now he is starting to throw his own players under the bus.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Good Lord people, he said Lacy needs to play better, then stopped himself from going any further. People are acting like MM drop kicked Lacy ' s dog too. For years people have bitched about how little fire MM has and when he has 1 miniscule slip up he becomes a coward for heaving players under the bus.

This play calling, MM sucks stuff is getting old. Like husker said, we can't know the intent of the play, blocking assignments, what AR audibled to, or what have you.

All I read is "I saw a running back in the back field...I KNEW it was going to be a run, so predictable!" there's more to a play call than the 50 50 run v pass choice. Just because a play didn't work doesn't mean it was a bad play call. Young Rodgers got blown up on his block on the safety, call whatever you want, if a blocker gets dominated like that, it's a sack or TFL, pick your poison. Point being, execution trumps scheme.

I will say that I agree with whoever wrote about Lacy trying to act like Barry sanders. Look for your lane between the tackles and run north south.
