Green Bay Packers - Fired McCarthey - Page 9 - Single-Team Season Threads -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

Eagles game, yeah Favre threw a horrible pick in OT, but he also called to punt on 4th and 1 (when they have been unsuccessful in scenario's like that just once in the last 10 try's that season, oh yeah it was the first half on the 1 yd line), and of course he blew the 4th and 26.

That punt killed me. Green had been running it down their throats all game and Sherman opts to punt in that situation instead of basically winning the game right there.

I think because they failed in the end of the 1st half, with under 1 minute to go. But that was like the 1st time they failed in a 3rd or 4th and under 3 in like 15 try's or something sick like that. That failure was also a goal to go situation. I would say that game (strictly as a coach not a GM) was Sherman's worst game as a coach. I liked him, strictly as a coach, no GM duties, he was horrible in that aspect.

I heard this when I was listening to ESPN Milwaukee this afternoon...

I'm sure he's a little frustrated, but I think this is one of the stories the media is blowing up to create a bigger storyline. Whisenhunt doesn't seem like the type of coach who would be pissed at that. He knows if they win Sunday it's a moot point.

if he's annoyed at anything its that the media is ragging on him for leaving in his players and risking injury so they could get a personal achievement(larry fitz) when the other coach was doing the exact same thing for the exact same reason

Whisenhunt's frustration probably stems a lot from the outcome, as well. GB played their starters most of the game and came out relatively healthy, while AZ chose to sit people and had players get injured, anyway.

What approach do you think they're going to take on Sunday? I think AZ is going to try and do what PIT did and run a lot of 3 and 4 WR sets to exploit Bush and Bell. If they don't get to Warner like they didn't get to Big Ben, it'll be a shootout. I think the Pack can hang in a shootout, but I think they're best chance to win is by running a lot, getting time off the clock, and keeping the D fresh.

At least we'll know Saturday night whether they play at MIN or NO if they win Sunday.

Sick.

Defense sucked. Bad.

Rodgers was Godmode with Failure-bookends.

I think GB gets that facemask call if the game's in Lambeau. Obv had no bearing on the play, but it'd have been a nice gift.

well you put it in the game thread so you put it there and felt like putting it here as well. That is trolling. That is ok, cause I will admit to trolling. Although not in your thread because I ride with my man Brett. But when he is gone I will put it in my memory banks to troll the **** out of the Vikings thread when they are dropped back to mediocrity.

Wow, what a botched overtime. Refs miss calls on consecutive downs and completely screw over the Pack. Of course none of this would matter if Rodgers connects on 1st down but there's only so much we can get from the man.

Honestly, does anyone else feel like Rodgers had the best season for any Packer QB ever? It sure feels that way.
