Im shocked no ones talking about it! Yes there was a lot of mess ups but if they hadn't converted, Crosby's 48 harder would be punching us a ticket in the SB instead of OT. I feel like Bostick messed up but its shadowing the real problem that this team only scored one Td with 5 turnovers!

Not to toot my horn, but this is one of 3 plays (Burnett kneeling, Bostick) that I've harped on that you can point to which cost the team the game.

As PFWT just said, there were myriad plays leading up to Burnett's pick which could have helped the Packers win. Jordy's drop, Aaron missing Cobb, Starks drop, Kuhn making it 3 inches further, refs missing the offside on Rodgers pic and on and on.

They're all relevant points, but to me no matter what gaffes people want to point to, the fact is that with about 5 minutes to go, the Packers were up 12 with a safety having an opportunity to run down an unknown amount of yards down the field. Bostick and Burnett blew opportunities to nearly seal the game, and we only know through hindsight that HaHa's play would have sealed the game as well.

I mentioned in an earlier thread that Burnett slid down because Peppers was waving him down and I guess I'm not the only one who saw it. From McGinns article this AM :

"After Tim Masthay's punt, Kearse dropped Wilson's perfect pass at the Green Bay 40 and the ball bounced straight to Morgan Burnett for an interception. Rather than avail himself of an open sideline on the return, Burnett saw Peppers' stop sign and promptly fell down at the Green Bay 43."

McCarthy needs to learn to go for the throat, teach his players the same. Some crow is in order Musccy

No, but he is coached and it's part of the problem. Our team is soft when it counts the most and that comes from the top.

Say what you will about Bellichek but his teams consistently go for the throat while our team tries to hold on to a lead.

I'd just be stunned if that directive came from the coaches. There's no way Burnett or Peppers would have heard coaches yelling from the sideline in the moment, and I highly doubt going into that possession the coaches said "If you get a pick, take a knee." If they did, then fine, I'm wrong on that point.

I may be stressing this too much because it's hard for any of us to know how many yards he would have gained. FG range? Maybe. Just to the 50? Maybe. Either way, field position was squandered.

That said, Bostick and Haha's 2 point are not coaching related.

If it wouldn't have been those plays in particular, it would have been something else.
