[QUOTE="DergaSmash, post: 298360, member: 2194"] Yeah, I have nothing but love for MM. I think he is an underrated coach. Yet whatever they are doing to correct the penalties is not working as planned. A few of the pre-snap penalties I can understand, especially when backed up at the 1 yard line in Soldier Field. It would be no different for the Bears in Lambeau. Yet what I can't handle is the holding calls. Peppers was kicking *** last night. While he may not have blown up the stat sheet, he was the reason the OL had so many holding calls. Sure a couple of them were iffy but either way its not good. I know Tauscher and Clifton aren't spring chickens but their conditioning looked horrible. I don't know why MM didn't chip or use a TE to help on Peppers. Bottom line for the Offensive Penalties- GB had at least 7 points taken off the scoreboard because of penalties. (And it was to Finley which would've helped my fantasy team a lot! LoL)The defensive calls really pissed me off though. Matthews was held 3 times that I saw for sure and they called one hold. The roughing the passer call on Zombo was legit, I have no beef with it.
