What games has Rodgers "old age/injury" limited MM's already limited playcalling in your opinion?

Rodgers has not been injured all season until the Philly game. They've won every game since he sustained that injury. The offense really has done well with exception of the 4th Q vs the Bears when MM shut it down.

McCarthy didn't shut shit down against the Bears in the 4th quarter. They had two 3 and outs where they passed the ball downfield twice each time. Just because the offense doesn't move the ball doesn't mean it was shut down. Running 3 times and punting is shutting it down. Maybe you could make a case for running twice to get to 3rd and long. But passing TWICE each possession and having pressure and incompletions is not shutting it down.

One of the reasons why you are getting pissed on is you think that a heathy Packers can only get beat by themselves with poor coaching. That is utter bullshit.

Rodgers is very much like Big Ben in that they are both always injured in some degree but never


One of those CBs is a guy you just said got benched, lol.

Is it that you got healthy in the secondary or that you started playing against bad QBs? 3 bad ones and 1 good one that played bad in your game.

It's funny though you mention injuries. The Vikings probably win the North again if not for losing all they have.

Bad/average QB's destroyed us when they were injured. Mariotta and Luck put up their best games of the year vs us.

Randall was benched after they went to zone/soft coverage in the 4th Q. He plays well in press because he has the speed to undercut or baits QB's to throw deep and picks it off. If they play press he is fin if not he gets destroyed. I would prefer Hyde over him though to be completely honest but the D coordinator should know his limitations.

They played fine in press coverage vs Stafford in the first half and did fin in that game and exceedingly well vs RW. That's all the proof required to show they can play well in press vs geat QB's. It's up to the D coordinator to adhere to the gameplan for the entire game and not bail on it due to the score. Dom likes to play not to give up the big play with the lead as you seen first hand in the Bears game. That allows wide open passes that any HS QB can make.

The Vikes have more issues than just injuries as they fired their O-coordinator before mid season.

Seattle is tough to figure out. They look unbeatable one week and awful the next. That level of inconsistency makes it tough for me to rank them above 5 although they are more than capable of beating anyone they play. If Atlantas D plays in the net 2 games like they have the last 5 or 6 I'd agree with them at 2. Even in the once game they lost the last 5 the loss was not because of the D. Defense hasn't given up 20 points since start of November
No doubt. We all have no idea what is going to happen, but I bet most of us homers take our odds.

Personally if the Falcons don't get the 2 seed I'd MUCH rather play at Dallas in the divisional round than at Seattle event with how schizophrenic the Hawks have been. I'd imagine the other teams feel the same way.

Yeah, I'd prefer Dallas too. Mainly because of playing their youth, but anything can happen in a win or go home game.

For sure. I believe Seattle is the best team in the NFC when they are at their best, but they very frequently aren't, and playing at a high level consistently is part of being a great team. So we'll see. I just hope Seattle can win the last 2 games and get a first round bye. A week to rest and one less chance to lose will be nice.

He shut it down by going away from what was working. Only a moron would call deep passes when the team is averaging 10 yards per carry on the ground and when your QB has two injured legs. By shutting it down I mean doing the exact opposite of what was working. Ty only had 2 carries in the 4th Q. lol

Yes now you're starting to understand that GB has to win with the players making big time plays despite their coaches making terrible play calls. :clap2: I'll just reiterate the Seahawks 2015 championship Pack completely destroying them 19-0. Then decide to go away from what was working and play not to lose. When you do that vs a good team you will normally lose unless your team is good enough to overcome bad coaching and a good/great opponent. In 2010 they were able to accomplish this because they were far superior to every team we faced.

For me it's less to do with the youth. It's more about the lack of playoff experience in general and the pressure of their recent playoff failures. The youth may actually counteract some of that though. They don't know any better lol

butthurt? I happen to find your stupidity soothing and entertaining. Carry on, make me laugh, clownboy.

Sorry, I won't argue with a mentally handicapped person like yourself. Proceed with your drivel as you normally do and I won't interfere.

Ty is not a normal running back. He is a true WR. You can't expect to just keep feeding him. It's not Madden.

He's is built like a RB at 6 ft 220 lbs of pure muscle. Now if it was Cobb I would've agreed with you but Ty was built to be a RB. Plus Michael is a capable RB as well and should know the playbook by now with 3-4 weeks.

HA! You think Dallas has more playoff issues than Atlanta? Half this team wasn't around for the playoff chokes. Your QB is now the poster boy for playoff choking. Hell, even with Romo starting he is 2-4 in the playoffs. "Matty Ice" is 1-4.

"Pressure of recent playoff failures"...something a Falcons fan shouldn't be harping on.

Exactly my point. I'd rather play a team with similar type failures than a team with great success. As I said though the relative youth of Dallas ( and Atlanta) may negate that. Ultimately I just don't think Dallas can slow down Atlantas offense like Seattle has the ability to do. That mean the Cowboys offensevwould need to score 35-40 points. Feasible? Sure, but I'd take my chances

By youth, I meant a lack of experience. I wasn't very clear.
