Packers coach Mike McCarthy: Just win the route or win the play called;

In other words, "I'm not smart enough to win the chess game, so I rely on 'match-ups.'"

“So much is made of scheme,” McCarthy said Friday. “Frankly, I think too much is made of scheme. At the end of the day, it’s about running your routes or defending the route or blocking your guy or getting off the block and eventually tackling the guy and getting the football.”

He's right. Do what's asked of you. Lombardi's old saying...you should be able to tell the defense what you're doing and still gain yards.

That's good in theory and all, but not very practical in today's NFL. At least not with the talent on the Packers roster.

The bigger point is the players aren't executing basic stuff. It was clear Mike McCarthy and Aaron Rodgers were frustrated by Davante on the int, we can name numerous drops, the wrs can't figure out how to run an out pattern. This is about execution.

Yeah, Rodgers played a good enough game to win, even if that still wasn't a "great" game.

It's about Aaron's execution.

The rest of the guys aren't playing any different than when we were 6-0.

It's impossible to conclude that Aaron Rodgers is the ONLY one playing differently. Rodgers didn't make the bad snap that led to him losing feeling in his arm for the rest of the game, he's not the one that isn't consistently getting separation on routes, and he didn't drop those passes that hit the receivers in the hands. There is plenty of blame to go around offensively.

Could Davante catch more balls? Yes. Could RR break a tackle. Theoretically.

But what is DIFFERENT than when we were 6-0? Aaron. He's not right. It also seems to me that he's scapegoating Davante.

Look at how other team's WRs are getting open every play, but if you look at the Packer WRs, they are not getting any separation, which leaves Aaron Rodgers out to dry.
I don't care how good your QB is, if no one is willing to go BEYOND the route to try to give him something to throw to, you can't blame the QB.

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?
