[QUOTE="PackerfaninCarolina, post: 568821, member: 9364"] Yes, I seriously don't get why people continue to bag on Mike McCarthy every time something goes wrong on O. Zero credit for some of our greatest offensive masterpieces, and all on him when it goes in the gutter. That being said, I don't deny we have some issues, most of which can be summed up in our current O-line injury depth, but that has nothing to do with play calling. I don't get either how people say he either doesn't run the ball enough, or he runs it up the middle too much, or he runs too much period, drives me crazy. Looks to me like he uses Eddie Lacy plenty enough as he should, even more concerning could be that concussion which I hope is no more than 1 week. Where I do think we could get back to using a little more of are more screen passes in the playbook. Was our bread and butter kind of game back when Ahman Green was here and I certainly think not only RB screens but TE and WR screens could certainly help the O out a lot more when going up against these kinds of defenses. I'm also thinking we could give Quarless more of a chance to go up and get some balls against the LBs, if they're thrown at the right angles, but we'll see how that turns out. But overall, I continue to say McCarthy's play selection has been among the best in the league. He's been able to modify the offense to go from being a pure spread version of the west coast, to being more run oriented and balanced out for the games it needs it. Given what many teams have done on defense since the days that our playing a 5 WR spread package was the standard, that's not the answer for beating the Seahawks. Gonna need a balance of the right type, and what type that is, well I don't think hardly any coaches currently know what that is. But I'm not going into criticize McCarthy yet. [/QUOTE]
