If McCarthy calls the plays, who will take the blame if the offense fails?

[gimmesix]

Didn't Green Bay get rid of him because Rogers said he had one of the the lowest football IQ's of any football coach he knew?

No. Green Bay got rid of him because Rodgers broke a clavicle then tried to play on one leg the next season.

 

[Whirlwin]

It should be self explain

 

[Jarntt]

On here?
the guy that particular poster has trashed all year and blamed for everything will be blamed regardless of facts. could be Dak, Zeke, McCarthy. CeeDee, Gallup, trading of Cooper, playing TyLer at LT, playing Tyler at LG, the OL, the lack weapons, the lack of free agent signings, letting Moore go, signing Schultz, not signing Schultz, the sun coming through the stadium, passing too much, running too much, and of course Jerry. The only thing that changes with some here is the calendar.

MM better win it all or get 1 game away. Even if he does I think Quinn will get his job unless Quinn signed for more than 1 year.

 

[4lifecowboy]

Scratch Payton. He’s touted to head Denver according to reports.

There is a reason Quinn has past on head coaching gigs two years in a row.

Not sure how much input or blame/credit a new OC will get if McCarthy calls the plays himself.

It want matter because Quinn becomes HC

Hall of fame make room for Trent Dilfer,Mark Rypien,Jeff Hostetler.Doug Williams and Jim McMahon.All Super Bowl winning QB"S.And how did I forget Joe Flacco and Brad Johnson.Another Superstar Nick Foles.

If QB"S are judged by championships.

Havent we learned that the possibilities are endless to distract from the real issue(s):

- WRs cant catch
- WRs run wrong routes
- Defense sucks
- Diggs cant tackle, cant catch INTs
- OL Coach sucks
- RB Coach sucks
- ....

 

[Cmac]

Dak will get blamed regardless. And if he continues to play as he has throwing picks. Deservedly so.

.....There will be no excuse whatsoever for Dak if the interceptions don't decline. I'm currently chalking that up as a bad season......just like Zeke had the fumblitis year. Let it play out, but next year is a defining year, for sure.

Good points. I wonder how much blame goes on McLay vs Jerry and Stephen ? I keep hearing McLay is great in judging talent.

Thats a good point. McClay was untouchable in the past. And so is JJ and SJ.

And in opposition to others i dont think our drafts the last few years were very successful.

Could get very interesting indeed.

this all comes back to mike and his coaches

Jerry is the GM, he should be taking the blame for the entire past 27 years of failure.

McCarthy will get the blame if he fails.... Jerry will get the credit if Mike succeeds... Duh.... Don't you know how this all works? LOL

 

[Aven8]

And what has Rogers done since??

Rogers is a first class you know what

 

[Lodeus]

Anyone but dak

 

[SteveTheCowboy]

He is being set up. After a subpar season he is gone. Either Peyton, or Quinn will be given the job.

Why would they need a setup? They can do whatever they want.

 

[basel90]

We are behold

McCarthy will get the blame if he fails.... Jerry will get the credit if Mike succeeds... Duh.... Don't you know how this all works? OL

fans are hostage to an 80 year old man’s football hobby game . Never seen anything like this in sports in my life .

Dumb question. McCarthy will take the blame and responsibility. He took the blame for Moore’s calls, even when he wasn’t calling the plays. It’s the nature of the job.
