The other is when Macho Pittsburgh threw the challenge flag on IIRC a change of possession which are automatically reviewed anyway. If I remember right, had Jordy not picked that up we would have gotten a 15 yard flag.


       
Thats not what happened I don't think, I think the official upstairs buzzed before McDumbass threw the flag so therefore it was the official calling for a review first, Im more surprised Jordy didn't get a flag for unsportsmanlike conduct

No.

 

Here was the background on that. From NFL.COM:

 

McCarthy got very, very lucky during the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings when he threw an unfortunate challenge flag. Following a play where the officials ruled that wide receiver James Jones fumbled the ball on the goal line, McCarthy whipped out his flag in anger. We all know by now that's a 15-yard penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct because all turnovers automatically are reviewed.

 

McCarthy was penalized despite the best efforts of Packers wide receiver Jordy Nelson, who picked up the flag and tried to hide it. But the penalty didn't matter much. The officials still reviewed the play and reversed the call to a touchdown for the Packers. The penalty yards were tacked on to the kickoff; no big deal.

OMGAWD, you're kidding right...all people did last year was rag on the horrible play calling MM did.  EXICUTION IS THE NAME OF THE GAME, and the boys didn't execute.  1st and goal with 50 seconds left and the Packers were on or close to the 10 years line.  4 incomplete passes????  really???  Not one run play was called???  EXECUTION is the name of the game no matter who's calling the plays.  JMHO.

Yes, the executions should start at dawn.

MM is a solid coach.  He made the right decision in trying to transition to a pure HC role.  I'm hoping this failed experiment will be another lesson in becoming a better overall HC and to help him effectively evaluate some of the stiffs on this coaching staff.

 

I've never been a Clements fan, the guy has been genuinely horrible whenever holding a major position.  I don't know why I held out hope that the combo of Clements, Edgar and Rodgers would be effective.  I truly hope Rodgers tells the sideline to go **** themselves and starts audibling more.  

 

The Norvening is in effect and making a comeback.  Fight the Norvening MM, FIGHT FOR YOUR LIFE!
