If the Thanksgiving night loss to the Detroit Lions was sad, then the loss this past Sunday in Arizona was painful. It was, perhaps, the single worst loss of the Mike McCarthy/Aaron Rodgers era. While there is no arguing that the Arizona Cardinals are a championship caliber team, there is no doubt that the a

No one's been more critical of Mike than I am. However, my criticism lies in the fact that he has no concept of sports psychology. He doesn't have his teams ready and they don't show up for a full 60. A coach like Lombardi knows how to press those emotional buttons to motive players and keep them honest. Mike's more of an X's and O's type of guy.

But the criticisms here? Hard to say if he punishes arbitrarily. Yeah, benching Abby for one drop and letting Davante continue drop after drop seems a little bit arbitrary. But we don't know what's going on behind the scenes, and this franchise deals with everything in-house. They don't tolerate leaks. Andrew Brandt found that out the hard way.

A huge part of the woes. And mostly to do with X's and O's IMO. Mike is stubborn. His philosophy of taking advantage of matchup and not scheming guys open is what we are seeing. He expects the players to beat the guy across from them, and I can understand that. But he doesn't adjust when they are not, or they are the ones getting beat.

when was Abby benched? I remember seeing him on the field offensively after his drop.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!
