I don't think it's whining, but McGinn has kinda gone Skip Bayless on the Pack. He'll take a legitimate point and stretch it as far as he can.To be blunt I think it's you who are overreacting in this case. Take theoff and understand that the whole group underperformed. GB didn't can a bunch of coaches and make changes in the organization based on success they did so because everyone underperformed last season.
Those of you who keep whining about McGinn... just don't click on the story. Simple as that.
I certainly don't have rose colored glasses on. I'm certainly not over reacting. What I'm doing is looking at the real story as to what happened. I'm very much aware that all of the receivers under performed. I didn't need to read McGinn to realize it.
McGinn, in this article, made an arbitrary decision to say that guys who have been performers for an extended period of time "suddenly" lost it all, because of a birthday, or because they "slowed down." Neither statement is backed by facts, just personal opinion, and in no way accurate.
What really happened was Aaron Rodgers got hurt. As a result, Hundley became the QB, and the coaching staff cut the playbook considerably, because they had a QB who wasn't capable of running the team. Since he couldn't make plays that Rodgers could, his play makers at WR were no longer a factor. What was a factor, to Hundley, was Adams, whom he'd worked with on a regular basis in practice, when both were secondary players. Hundley threw to him more than anyone else because he felt comfortable with him, and knew his moves. Cobb and Nelson were not secondary players, therefore not receivers that Hundley trusted. It happens all the time. If you watch teams, whose QB goes down, you'll see a major change in who primary receivers are, because of that trust factor.
Nowhere in McGinn's article did he even touch on this fact, and it's the real reason the entire WR group's production went down. He may have had some views about "giving people a chance," but I think it should be that all these guys deserve the benefit of the doubt, based on the poor coaching decisions, and the lack of a decent QB.
I'll continue to read McGinn, and if I agree with him, I'll say so. If I disagree, I'll also say so. It's all a matter of opinion, and that happens to be mine.
Busted ......Funny thing about this thread TW, Mark is the biggest Nelson homer on this forum LOL. "White lighting " signature forever.
A lot on this forum have been saying much of this about the Wr's for the past couple years. We've seen the same problems with AR at the helm. It's time to use an early pick on a decent WR. I have no problem with his assessment.
