[QUOTE="GreenBlood, post: 430039, member: 1198"] So does Finley. BTW, I'll remind you he is one year removed from knee surgery and was pretty much thrown right in the fire. Guys are rarely full speed in the first year after a knee injury. McCarthy said the primary goal with him was to get him through the season healthy. In fact, read it for yourself: [url]http://www.jsonline.com/blogs/sports/packers.html[/url] Scroll down where it says "McCarthy wraps up 2011 season". Does that sound to you like a guy who has a problem with his TE? Pay particular attention to the comments about work ethic and self-criticism. So what? Brees has always been a guy who picks out his favorite target every year and he looks for that guy all the time. This year that guy was Graham. Rodgers doesn't do that. He takes the guy who is open and if more than one guy is open, he goes to the guy who is in position to make the bigger play. Our WRs just happen to be very good at getting open. Just because a guy is open doesn't mean he's going to get the ball. And just because he didn't get the ball doesn't necessarily mean he wasn't open. The only way to make that assessment with any accuracy is by looking at game film. [/QUOTE]
