Penalties

[IronMan]

We have been one of the most penalized teams in the NFL since McCarthy took over. This is something that needs to be corrected if we want to be a consistant winner.

C.D. at Packerchatters wrote a great article about this very issue.

To me, the “penalty situation” is something that settles directly on the shoulders of the head coach, and it is time to see if McCarthy is going to be more willing to resort to accountability rather than excuses this year. If players are making stupid mistakes that costs the rest of the team field position and momentum, they need to know that the consequence is more than just working on their pad level in practice again this week.

Here is the rest:

And if you think the majority of the penalties were a result of the defensive scheme, you are wrong.

The Packers were penalized 110 times last year.

37 came from the defense.

48 from the offense

25 from the special teams(most since 2000)

Its not a scheme problem. Its a coaching problem.

Most of it... I mean, Bigby and Harris had a lot to do about it, too. But it was most on MM.

But believe we saw the start of it's end in the preseason. Every team we faced were more penalized than us... Specially amongst starters. I think the days of stupid penalties are over, or are beggining to end.

If the whole team can just lower the penalities then we will be a great team

Nothing kills a drive more then starting 1st and 20.

Need to stop the holding!

1st and 20 is better than 4 and 60 though

Easy on the guy, it was his first penalty in over 1000 snaps. Plus, he wouldnt have gained 15 without the hold. How about that Al Harris penalty on 3rd down late in the game? (clearly ref error)

 

[PackersRS]

We sucked in penalies again, BUT... Talk about non-existant penalties. The holding on Clifton, AND THE F'GIN ILLEGAL CONTACT ON HARRIS. What an absurd!

 

[bad93ex]

Ahmad Carrol wasn't on the team last year was he?

Well this is a young team and it shows in the number of penalties.

All NFL players are human, they will all make mistakes,Do Payton Manning, Tom Brady & Mason Crosby make mistakes? Yeah they do its only a game.
