  Well, not surprising that the 2 Mikes don't agree...

Quote:McCarthy took issue with Barr's hit.
"He's out of the pocket, he's clearly expecting to get hit," McCarthy said. "To pin him to the ground like that, I felt it was an illegal act. To sit here and lose any of your players on something like that, it doesn't feel very good. Yeah, I didn't like the hit. It was unnecessary ... totally unnecessary, in my opinion."




Vikings coach Mike Zimmer thought the hit was clean.
"We're playing football," Zimmer said. "It's unfortunate that he got hurt but I think everything was above board. We're not a dirty football team. We'll never be a dirty football team as long as I'm here. We're going to play within the rules and sometimes things happen."

... on broken collarbone.  Per Mike McCarthy in his Monday press conference.

Yeah, I'll bet the players do too.  Stay classy, A-Rod... from the side lines.

  My take
Posted by: greediron - 10-16-2017, 03:42 PM - Forum: The Longship - Replies (10)

Just a few tidbits I loved seeing.

- Loved the pressure from all angles.  I saw one double A gap bluff with the LBs backing out.  But we brought Smith several times and he got home. 

- The biggest thing about Smith blitzing IMO, it wasn't Sendejo back there, it was Harris.  Don't remember many highlights of Harris, but he seemed to do his job without any issues.  Sendejo is solid, but having Harris step up and allow Smith to do his thing is great news.

- Treadwell.  Nice to see him get opportunities and make the most of them.  The bust label gets thrown around way too early IMO.  But his biggest play?  The hustle and punching the ball out of Slimy Matthew's hands.  It didn't result in any change for us, but that is a heady play. 

- Screens, that is what our offense has been missing for some time.  Loved seeing the well designed screen play.  For years it seemed like we couldn't run them or didn't run them, but they always killed us.  Now we run them well.  Love it.

- Crushing the Pack.  It feels great.  Don't really wish injury on the opposition, but if I believed in Karma, this would be Rodgers getting his. 

- Why does every say the NFL is better with Rodgers playing?  He isn't likable, he is good, but he always looks for the unfair advantage.  And usually gets it.  So I don't think the NFL is any worse off without him.  The Packers are, but screw them.  Screw their fans.  Go cry in your turpentine laced beverages.

- Top 2.
    - Defense is playing lights out.
    - Offensive line is looking good.  Real good.

  The almighty Packers would never attempt to injure a QB...oh wait

Show this to any Packers fans who are whining about the clean hit Barr put on Rodgers yesterday.  Here is quite possibly the dirtiest hit of all time:
