Oh, no. I do get that Pakrz. For sure. Ted made some great picks all through his tenure, except 2015... His last big one was nabbing Clark. Phenomenal pick at that point.
My big thing was TT's imbalance in acquiring talent, and McCarthy's imbalance in play calling, along with his nepotism in hiring Zook, when the top 2 ST's coaches in the NFL were both available.
Ted got some talent but not enough, and for being a draft wizard, he had a ton of misses along the way. I still cannot fathom Spriggs. McCarthy didn't do very well to develop talent. I was a huge supporter of his, of course, after winning the SB. But, as the seasons wore on, he seemed so out of control, as did his team, and I came to think he was more the blind squirrel who found the nut in 2010-11.
Opposing defenses could rush us nearly non stop. Constantly had their ears pinned back in pass rush mode. That could have been avoided with a balanced run/pass offense. No wonder Aaron broke his collar bone twice. That was on McCarthy, whether AR was checking out of run plays or not. He should have done more to protect Rodgers, even if it was from Rodgers himself.
