Look at the way the D shut down the Panthers in the second half, and you blame McCarthy for trusting his D?

You miss the point entirely. The point is that Carolina had started with great field position the entire day, returning the ball back to the 45 several times. Had the offense missed on the touchdown attempt, it would have pinned Carolina back inside the 1. By kicking off back to them, it gave them great field position to start the drive -- just as it had all afternoon.

I do agree that the call to rush 11 on the punt was an awful, awful decision. Will Blackmon is a dangerous returner, and they didn't want to put it in his hands. I doubt he is going to take 13 seconds to return it that far.

I wonder if that call was on Stock or McCarthy...

Agreed, chances of blackmon returning a punt to a spot where we could go for a hail mary is better to me then us blocking a punt. either way I hate the fact that we would need to make that decision looking at post game stats.

I believe the late hit on Rodgers is the reason for the conservitive play calls on 2nd and 3rd. I'm not sure all his wits were there. Would I have called it differently sure, but you have to take the 3 pts when you can. If the ST would have done an average job today, Carolina would have had a much tougher time scoring.

We can bitch all we want, but this team has been playing with duct tape and mirrors for the last few weeks. AJ is not a MLB (that has become apparent), we have no pass rush, Woodson is playing safety because we have none left, Wells was out, Grant went out, all those injuries affect teh ST play as well. This is one of those years where injuries have kicked us in the nuts.

We still have 4 winnable games in teh next 4 weeks, we are not completely out of it, but getting close.

Coaching sucks on this team.

#1: Every week when we start a game we start off bad, I mean it's like is team is never ready against a team when they start the first quarter. What the hell does Mike McCarthy do the whole week. It takes them until half time to start playing good.

#2: Please for the love of god change the god damn defensive coordinator. This guy sucks, our defense can never stop the opposing offense at any crucial time.

I'm so dissapointed this year ...

Our coaches suck we're never ready, and defense always chokes.

I mean rodgers had 3 td's we put up 31 pts and we can't win a game with 31 pts somethings wrong with defense no doubt.

Glad To Be A Packers Fan.

The packers need to change coaching ... they will never win a SB with the coaching we have now !!!

I might agree with the defensive coordinator, but if you are talking about our HC, you are off your rocker. McCarthy has shown that he is a quality HC.

I don't like our defensive philosophy, but how often have we played with our starting squad this year? Maybe one game? We need help on the DL in nearly every position other than Kampy, but adding a solid DE opposite of him would make everyone look better.

"Ginco19" wrote:

Well, yeah, and not only would they have had to block the punt, they would have had to recover the ball too. The mathematical odds against that are astronomical.

The D was lights out in the second half. There was no reason to not trust the D to come up with a stop given their great play in the second half.

The defense hardly had to play the second half because the offense was dominating time of possession.

"TheEngineer" wrote:

Valid point, although with the 20-25 mph gusts on the field, attempting a 55-yard field goal would have been dicey.

Either way, our kick coverage had been horrendous all day. There was no point in giving them great field position.

Definitely don't get rid of McCarthy. Definitely get rid of Bob Sanders.

Sanders is the only change we need. We need a DC like Jim Johnson or Kiffin.

Are you serious?

The D was lights out in the second half. There was no reason to not trust the D to come up with a stop given their great play in the second half.

"all_about_da_packers" wrote:

the D gave up 14 points in the second half. i wouldn't call that lights out. and their returners were killing us all game, just like against the saints. it was a mistake to cut white for lansanah, our special teams hasn't been the same since. our d let the panthers score in less than 30 seconds, they are not lights out.

McCarthy took the sure-fire 3 points. You can't blame him for that.

"all_about_da_packers" wrote:

i don't blame him for that. i blame him for our offense's slow start, idiotic personnel moves, and for losing four games by four points or less. we win two of those games, we're in the playoffs.

Mucky Tundra (9h) : Kanata, seek help! lol

beast (12h) : I was rooting for the Bears to win and hurt their draft pick status

Zero2Cool (12h) : Forgot there was even a game last night haha

TheKanataThrilla (12h) : That was terrible.

TheKanataThrilla (12h) : Watching that game in its entirety yesterday is proof positive that I am a football addict.

beast (12h) : And horrible time management multiple times... and not being able to score more than 3 points on a team with talent

beast (12h) : Realizing the Bears didn't fix it from the previous week and do the same thing, getting the game to overtime

beast (12h) : They probably are not tanking, but they've absolutely mismanagement some things, such as Vikings seeing the Packers blocked FG and realizing

Zero2Cool (13h) : Crazy of Bears to have that mindset that is

Zero2Cool (13h) : Hail Mary stop away from 5 - 2. Not sure how that flips to tanking. Crazy mindset if true

beast (14h) : I've quietly questioned if Bears are tanking on purpose... they suddenly got a lot worse with some simple concepts like 101 clock management

wpr (16h) : Watching bares fans melt down over how putrid their team is, so enjoyable. It's the gift that keeps on giving.

Mucky Tundra (27-Dec) : The Seattle Seahawks defeat the Chicago Bears 6-3. Jason Myers had 6 RBIs for Seattle while Cairo Santos had 3 RBI for Chicago

beast (27-Dec) : Not nessarily, he might of been injured either way. He's playing about 50% of the games the last 4 years

Zero2Cool (26-Dec) : If they'd been more patient with him, he'd be back already. Putting him out there vs Bears caused him to tweak it and here we are.

packerfanoutwest (26-Dec) : well this is his last season with the PAck, book it

beast (26-Dec) : Sounds like no Alexander (again), I'm wondering if his time with the Packers is done

Zero2Cool (26-Dec) : Could ban beast and I still don't think anyone catches him.

Mucky Tundra (26-Dec) : Houston getting dog walked by Baltimore

packerfanoutwest (25-Dec) : Feliz Navidad!

Zero2Cool (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas!

beast (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁

beast (24-Dec) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : both games Watson missed, Packers won

Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???

Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th
