Some opposing viewpoints refuse to believe anyone but themselves
You mean refuse your point of view. I am not the only one that believe this emphasis on playcalling is being blown out of proportion. You admit below many other think it wasn't that big of deal.
Read my posts before putting words in my mouth, I clearly stated execution was a factor, but play calling deserves more credit then most are willing to give it. For someone who not long ago posted non-stop about all his inside information on Rodgers character and said Rodgers doesn't deserve all the credit he gets, you are switching that this week to "what Rodgers says in public is godspeak?"
First of all my post were regarding Rodger "leadership" and him being a role model. Not his post-game press conferences. Nor have I ever accused him of lying, I don't believe? Could be wrong there. Just for reference that is like stating I suck at English so I must not be able to put Lego's together. Those are two completely different things.
Ever hear about saying something to protect a friend? In this case, both MM and AR were guarded on what they said about their Friend, Tom Clements.
Where was this stated? Or is this just your belief? If it was said... that is my bad and I missed it. Had to work late yesterday and I hadn't heard anything about this.
Again, read my posts. I never said they were back to the offensive machine they were last year. I said this was a good building block, but we will learn more in the coming games. To flip your argument, are you saying execution during their lull in the offense was perfect and it was due to poor play calling that they were slowed down?
What? Not sure I follow you on this one... No they executed poorly. Bad blocking, bad catching, zero separation by WR, bad throws, mental mistakes, penalties, running backs falling on first contact... There is a 100 reason why they have under performed during certain portions of this year. But most come back to execution not what play was called.
Again, I didn't say it was ONLY play calling. and again.....you are using AR as the "best source" after what you said last week? consistent?
Lmao, Rodgers has nothing to do with my feelings toward the playcalling. He is only being used in this circumstance to show that your of "Always wonder why they are at home typing when they are obviously over qualified to be an NFL Head Coach." Was a ridiculous judgemental statement. And adds nothing to conversation.
My only point in this whole argument, is other people have opinions others then your own. That doesn't mean you need to insult them in order to prove your point. Nor do you have to blow it out of proportion. Only time will tell if the playcalling is the significant difference that leads this team down the correct path.
Be respectful and add conversation as to why you support that. The name calling and accusing people of being "over qualified as a head coach" is just disrespectful to people.
As I stated before... Here are the reasons I think it wasn't as big of a concern.
#1 Eddie and James made something out of nothing a couple times.
- Eddie alone had 124 yards 73 of those after contact. That I find to be an incredible personal effort. Not playcalling.
#2 Packers offesnse stalled for nearly half the game.
- In 5 drives the Packers had 60 yards and 5 punts. A span of 28 minutes without a score. That's a huge lull and I think again that was execution on those drives. (Though that drive with Cobb seems out of sorts.)
#3 Dallas gave up about its average per game in points.
- This Dallas defense is relied upon a lot given how bad the QB situation is. Thus they do tend to give up I believe around 23 points a game.
#4 This isn't the first time the Packers have scored 28 this season. This wasn't a special game. They played better than Detroit for sure. But was it better than the game at Minny? Or Chiefs? Or putting up over 400 yards against Carolina? Hard to say right now. Maybe?
#5 It's one game, hard to make a definitive statement about anything after one game. Could it be play-calling? Maybe? Maybe it confidence coming off a big win. Maybe it was all about Eddie proving a point.
Points can be made without insulting other people, they don't have to be idiots or arm chair coaches to have an opinion. If you want to put your reasons out there why you definitively feel after 1 game its all about the play calling than that is your right. And I have fun learning other sides of the spectrum. Just in my perspective, do it with a little respect to others on the boards.
