From the Bill Simmons mailbag this week, for the people that didn't enjoy McDonald's playcalling:

Q: Please take it easy on Jay Cutler George. Marc Trestman’s play calling is atrocious. Since 1970, only 18 teams ran the ball less than 9 times in a game. Want to guess their record? Yep, 0-18. On Thanksgiving, Chicago joined that list with 47 passes and 8 rushes in Dallas (despite having a 14-3 lead at one point!). Marc Trestman is a FRANCHISE KILLER. He’s a journeyman coach and a horrible play caller. He can’t make any in-game adjustments. He’s a poor game manager. He doesn’t understand run/pass balance. This “QB Whisperer” crap that the media has been touting for 2 years is just plain wrong.  How does that happen in the first place?  How does one attain a completely false moniker, and how is that then perpetuated ad nauseam and unchecked throughout the media?  Trestman is awful, he needs to go back to being a lawyer.

BS: Yup, you only have three more weeks to top Jeff from Lakeland’s Trestman rant as the “Most Scathing Email Under 150 Words From a Disgruntled NFL Fan.” The only way that email would have been funnier would be if Trestman had written a book in 2010 called [I][URL='http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8742319-perseverance']Perseverance: Life Lessons on Leadership and Teamwork[/URL][/I]. Wait, what???
