Actually when you think about it that conversion did essentially nothing. Only thing it did is if we gotta punt hopefully we pin them inside the 10. But they will still have a solid 2 minutes to play with.

 

Really wasn’t as big as it felt.

Just the one first down I'd say is a major help to burn the TOs. This is a tough call now though. Do you make them burn the last one or throw it. I'm inclined to throw.

I think you have to trust Rodgers to make one play to salt this thing. I don’t love it, but I think that’s the play.

I realize MLF is a first year head coach, but it's not like he's new to the NFL. Some of his decisions in this game are absolutely stunningly bad.

 

Why run so much time off on the punt? Your defense has been bad all 2nd half. PLAN on the possibility that you may need to score again. If you don't have to, great! But plan on possibly needing to.

 

2nd and 8, your whole plan was .... drawing them off sides, and then when that didn't work, burning a time out? It's like McCarthy School of Clock Management. It may not hurt them in the end, but come on. "Draw them offsides" is not a play on 2nd and 8 when saving time outs should be at a premium.

It made them use 2 TOs before they got the ball. Nothing is a stretch.

The common denominator on that 2nd and 8 is Rodgers. I think that’s his call there.
