Message: <blockquote data-quote="jon" data-source="post: 885458" data-attributes="member: 15113">IMHO, these are getting at it.  Clearly the offense's plan was more straight ahead stuff but after 2 or 3 Tampa LBs shot gaps on sweeps, the door was open for the mis-direction that features so heavily in MLF's scheme.  I simply don't buy the argument that Ervin sitting out made this impossible.  Poor coaching adjustment.Similarly, on D, it is inexcusable to fail to get pressure on Brady.  So many 3 man rushes, so few odd-man blitzes.  Pettine, it seems, didn't try to fool Brady;  he just tried to go man on man didn't adjust after continuous failure.What really hit me, though, is the way the team got pushed around.  No fight, no fury.  I lay this on coaching as well.And it got me wondering.  When is the last time we saw a Packer team genuinely bull its way through an opponent and physically beat them?  With both McC and MLF, the Packers are known for pretty football, execution, and 12's flashes of brilliance.  When's the last time they gave anybody a bloody nose?</blockquote>
