I am still ticked at the coaching staff for the worst play call decision I have ever seen. There was absolutely no reason to make a call like that on the punt return. Arrogance and idiocy at its best.

I agree the play should never have been called....but I think it would have worked big time, if #10 had caught the ball before he started running.
I know I know they won the game and I am happy for that. Just a ridiculous call with all that was riding on his game. Just can't defend it.

I didn't even know that #10 was on the team!
MM is just fortunate that they came away with the win in spite of his massive blunder.

I don't care if the play worked it was in inexcusable.
Even if it had gone for a TD I would have been upset with that call.
Most senseless play call in the McCarthy era.

Since MM agreed with that stupid,wasted play then he deserves a severe reprimand by Ted Thompson his BOSS who has much more power over his coaches than just picking draft choices.if they were behind in the closing minutes that play would have made some sense,but with a damn lead its mind boggling!! 
Yep, horrible play call. Not sure what MM was thinking there. GB was lucky the defense stood tall.
If Crosby gets replaced, and he should, so should the coach who called that stupid play on the punt return and almost cost us the game. GB has been lucky, that they keep on winning these games. If we lost one of these stupidly played games, for certain there would be changes.
Terrible call. Dom and the D bailed that call out. A call like that might have sunk most teams. This team has some deep rooted fight to it based on the adversity its faced this year.
Playoffs. Next.

In other news, Clay Matthews is a monster, and it looks like we found a way to beat cover 2.

Agree on Clay.
BTW - We've been kicking the **** out Chicago and their Cover 2 for awhile now.
Just get the Matthews contract done. I see no reason to delay the inevitable.
He's so much more than a sack machine.

Defense (Matthews, Raji, Heyward and Neal in particular)
Rodgers overcoming the stupid coaching today
Offensive line
Packers only need five wins to take the lead in the all time series, something they've never done
Another NFC North title!

Coaching was really dumb today, dunno what was going on
Crosby
Lovie Smith probably lost his job today

I'm glad some of the other Sheeple on this forum are finally seeing the light. McCarthy is throwing games to boost his salary bonus. You should copy and paste my location into your avatar.

Or what? MM has been in his corner and I expect that to continue.
You mean dumber? 
I enjoyed the game, but I don't understand the pants peeing either.

I get the feeling MM's patience is at an end with Crosby.

You spoiled little s**ts don't deserve the success of this team, since you refuse to enjoy it even when they're on a 2+ season run that's as good as anything the Packers have produced in about 50 years.
This place gets ****ing dummer every day.

Crosby will cost us a game this year if he is still around.
Watching Aaron in the 2nd/3rd quarter was really enjoyable.
It'll be interesting to hear the answer to why that play was called
Thank God it didn't come back to haunt them
The Crosby status is a whole different discussion though

Did MM know that throwback punt return play was called? Didn't look like it on the sideline afterwards.

He's gone. He bombed, badly, and the guy on the other team went 2/2 after sitting at home all year long. A guy who can hit 70-75% of his kicks (Longwell and Rackers both can do that) will be a massive upgrade over a guy who is worse than a 50-50 proposition at this point.quote:Originally posted by Pakrz:quote:Originally posted by ShebPackFan:

I was wondering the same thing. We'll probably never know because I'm sure MM will take credit for that one. He did look a bit confused on the sideline after that one.
I'm not in Crosby's corner. He's flat out sucked for several weeks now. I'm just saying that GB has stuck by Crosby this long and I would expect it to continue. They're a very loyal franchise.
It was a long kick, but he had a really ugly miss that would have tied the game at the end against the Colts.quote:Originally posted by Pakrz:quote:Originally posted by ShebPackFan:quote:Originally posted by ShebPackFan:
