[QUOTE="PackerfaninCarolina, post: 746048, member: 9364"] So ... Right now the big 3 in TT, MM and DC are under the microscope, but since DC already has his own thread I won't get into him and ... not really much to be said there anyway. Right now on offense though we got the QB issue and thus far even with a bye week and actually having a healthier OL than Detroit, our offense has minimal drives down the field and continues to shoot itself in the foot anyway. Now I'm looking at a few different factors at play here. Hundley does have to take the blame for some of this. He seems to lack the zip and at times the wherewithal to gun a ball in the middle of the field. If you're going to succeed in this league at any level period, you don't have to thread the needle to the degree Rodgers does, but you just can't be that trigger shy and rarely throw so much as 7 or 8 yard balls in the middle of the field. That one big gainer to Cobb it seemed like was about the only one he hit that way. And his situational awareness on the drive ending on the fg right before half ... Just bad instincts there and some things regarding QB instincts is you either have them or you don't. I'm starting to think Hundley doesn't. But I'm also looking at MM here and this stuff we kept hearing that he was going to take the training wheels off, or that he was going to adapt the offense to more zone read stuff. I also mentioned in the Kendricks thread about wanting to see more bootlegs, PA, rollouts misdirections and getting Kendricks involved rolling out with Hundley. I don't know about you guys but I sure didn't see hardly any of that. Seemed like most of Hundley's rollouts were trying to escape pressure on broken plays or being reluctant to throw in the middle. I just saw nothing different between last game and this. Also, seems MM is still trying to run iso and man-beater routes right now. We ranted and raved about that problem that was caused there WITH Rodgers at QB. Run them with Hundley ... Yikes. Now ... Obviously MM should at least consider giving Callahan a shot and if it doesn't work, go back to Hundley. But I'm just thinking if you're not interested in turning this more into Hundley's UCLA offense, might as well use a QB who came from a more Pro-style offense. But I'm also pointing the finger at Ted Thompson and his scouts. You just would think theyd pay attention to certain things like arm strength and throws down the middle.
