[QUOTE="Greg C., post: 204833, member: 195"] The play calling was suspect at times, but that's always the case after a loss. The Packers were just losing too many of the matchups out there. If McCarthy had called more running plays, and they continued to get stuffed almost every time (and there's no reason to believe that would not have been the case), then McCarthy would be criticized for stubbornly sticking to the running game when it clearly wasn't working, rather than trying to exploit a banged-up Giants secondary. What really drove me nuts were all those passes parallel to the line of scrimmage. But those were mostly in the first half, as I recall. (I haven't watched the game on video yet.) If I had to make a guess at the percentages, I would blame about 10% of the loss on play calling, and 90% on losing matchups, both at the line of scrimmage and in the secondary, on both sides of the ball.
