[QUOTE="Sunshinepacker, post: 540671, member: 9033"] You don't have to do much to be classified as a poor play caller. I don't care what the offense was ranked overall because of his assinine decision to hand the ball to Eddie Lacy at the end of the half in week 14. The Packers were at the 32 yard line with four seconds left! And McCarthy calls a friggin running play for Eddie Lacy? Guess what happened, Lacy hurt his ankle which affected his play for the rest of the year. Would have been nice if Lacy was healthy enough to play more than 37 snaps against the 49ers in the playoffs. Kind of ties in to his weird playcalls with Randall Cobb at running back against the 49ers. Or there was his brilliant decision to accept a holding penalty in Week 9 against the Bears (with a little over a minute to go) thereby turning down a FREE TIMEOUT. This was also a game in which he randomly decided to save all of his timeouts until there was only 1:14 left in the game! Again, you don't need a laundry list of plays to make a guy a mediocre-to-poor in game coach. McCarthy is a terrific developer of talent on offense and is good at making sure his guys fit in his offense. Game days aren't his time to shine though. [/QUOTE]
