If you ever needed an example of a coaching failure

In his post game press conference Mike McCarthy just called the fake punt try a “Big play opportunity”

I would love to hear the Jones family private conversations tonight. They have to know they have screwed everything up here. There is no way to deny it at this point.

It's not just that simple. You also have to factor in what they're working with. There is PLENTY of blame to go around.

Of course there was that one game in Arizona where he iced his own kicker; but that's another story.

Well I've seen more of those type things this year than I did in 10 years of Garrett. That one was a winner but MM is not exactly leaving Garrett out on the idiot island.

I am not one to talk about Mike...but this was just bad...all round too...Special Team, Offense, Defense...just awful...

And Washington has an awful coaching staff lead by Ron. But lucky for him he coaches in the NFC East.

Vikes: Martin played, Vikes DL is nothing special.
WFT: No Martin, WFT is one of the best in football.

Yeah that doesn't explain bizarre play calls. Reverse from the 5 yard line, etc. It was a horribly called game regardless of who was playing defense.

That game was a great one.

The amount of dumb calls, mistakes, etc. from this coaching staff in this game was almost comical. From the bizarre red zone play calls from Moore, or his bad 4th and short call in the 2nd half, to some poor third down calls, to that brutal fake punt, to Nolan being outclassed again this game was just a textbook study in how a coaching staff can implode a game.

What is with Moore's obsession with college level plays? Has Nolan ever designed a good blitz? It seems he just runs either LVE or Smith straight into the heart of the opposing OL. And what's with the defense almost ALWAYS giving up an easy 8-10 yard gain when we have a team in a hole at like 2nd and 16?

Just at a loss for words on this one. You saw one team that had middling talent like us well coached and then you saw us.

Correction, GM failure. With the fuhrer in charge of everything, the no power head coach makes little difference.

We were in the game until that stupid faked punt deep in our territory. Who does that? That call showed me this is still the dumbest organization in the NFL.

….the two (2) plays for 3rd and 1 in the 1st half, with a RB named Elliott or Pollard, and a QB sneak available. Game changer.

This game was all on the coaches every bit of it

this was one of the worst games ive seen called by a coaching staff
I believe it is the worse coached game in every phase I have ever seen in close to 60 years and that includes High school ball. The ineptitude of the entire coaching staff is embarrassing. Can’t wait to hear Jerry’s excuses. Shameful at this point the DC OC. And HC have a job because week in and out they display all the traits you do not want in a coaching staff.

The coaches should make a public apology to players & fans for giving this game away.
This game was very winnable w/12 min in 4th quarter down by only 4pts
If I were the owner I would not pay these offensive coaches this week & if these coaches had any sense of pride & integrity they wouldn’t accept a pay check for this sorry ignorant lame pathetic amateur play calling that they claim is “Professional Football”...They’re not coaches...They’re Con-Men

I hear that but its wishful thinking.

I seriously believe they sit around in denial amongst each other.

I just wonder what goes through his head in games like this. Last week, he called a pretty good game against the Vikes. Then he comes back this week and just does so many stupid things. He's also gotten predictable IMO. We run almost every 2nd down after an incomplete pass. We also love that jet sweep on 3rd and short. Good DCs, like Del Rio, will pick that up.

Kellen Moore has failed at everything he's ever tried to do in the NFL. Only on this team would he continue to not only be employed, but get repeated promotions.

------NO ONE thought it would be this bad with McCarthy...

WRONG....I did, because we don't have Aaron Rodgers
