[QUOTE="all about da packers, post: 106277, member: 227"] IMO, playcalling wasn't as bad as it was made out to be. I can't judge it farily because half the time our WRs/RBs/TEs were dropping passes. IMO any playcalling looks great when you have playmakers, and our (lack of) playmakers is killing us. McCarthy can't call a pass because we simply don't have a WR to go out and get a jump ball. McCarthy can't call a run because our o-line simply sucks at maintaing the point of attack. It is what it is, and perhaps McCarthy could have made better calls but IMO who would McCarthy want Brett to pass to on a 3rd and 26? Drive couldn't catch a cold tonight, Jennings was being doubled after his early catches, Fergy is Fergy, Franks can't get pass 26 yards with this O-line, Morencey/Miree need to help block or at least wait to see if they can pick up a blitz. You try to make due with what you have, and I say McCarthy did that. The 4 tries to get it into the endzone was an essential play IMO for 2 reasons: 1. Showing how much further the Packers have to go before they get back to the top. 2. What happens when you try to force players that aren't talented enough to do something which they can't (in this case asking a young inner o-line that can't match up with the DTs, asking them to push the bigger and stronger DTs back while also delaying the LBs from filling the gaps). Such is the nature of our team that if MM were to try to do some of the things we expected previous years, we wouldn't get too many better results than an 8 yard completion on 3rd and 26. That's the way I feel anyways. :) [/QUOTE]
