McCarthy's day-after press conference: Panthers game - JSOnline McCarthy's day-after press conference: Panthers game By Greg A. Bedard of the Journal Sentinel Dec. 1, 2008 Green Bay - Mike McCarthy has started his press conference: * Derrick Frost will be released today. The Packers don't even have a replacement ready. That's how bad they want him out. * Matt Flynn will be the holder. * McCarthy said injuries have not been a deciding factor as to the peformance of the special teams * The team will spend a lot of time on special teams this week. * McCarthy knew Scott Wells had a concussion after the fumble. * McCarthy does not regret the playcall to John Kuhn because the linebackers were in pass coverage. * He did think a lot about going for it on fourth down. They would have run it again: same play as the second-down play. * McCarthy said the performance of the special teams has "been way out of bounds" in regards to the other team. * Meeting today will be spent on what has gone wrong. * Ryan Grant is still the starter. Jackson may get some more carries. * Kenny Pettway had a ligament tear and is likely out for the seaosn. * Bigby has a shoulder sprain. * Nick Collins has a hip contusion and may miss a couple days. * I don't think I've ever seen our defense give up rushing touchdowns like that. * "I liked what I saw in our secondary," McCarthy said about Woodson. * Nick Collins did "not make a huge mistake" on the first Steve Smith reception. Looked like Collins jumped a crossing route on the play. * McCarthy didn't want to say whether releasing Jon Ryan was a mistake. "I don't want to go there." * Why are the Packers 1-4 in close games compared to 5-1 last year? "The quarterback is just one position. It's certainly important but it's just one position...I don't recall being in three-point games and having minus-200 in field position last year either. I think it's convenient criticism (one changing QB). I think our quarterback position has played at a high level this season. I don't think it's been a question at all."
