Questions about this game yeah I got one Mike what the hell happened out there

Who is the bald guy in the picture that often stands next to McCarthy ? I don't recognise him.

Uumm, am I the only one who gets news feeds? Lol. He’s out. Let’s hope the replacement is just 10% better and we can get some CB’s & edge rushers. The Pack should be fine then?!

Time for a bold smart move. Fangio or a new HC and Fangio. I'll take his track record and conference experience. Personally Gruden/ Fangio would shake things up.

Hoping for Fangio (Chicago/San Fran) or Guenther (Cincinnati) as the new D-Coordinator. If we can generate a better pass rush with either personnel or scheme, this team will be sitting pretty this time next year.

I believe Thompson & McCarthy are going "all in" in 2018, they have no choice. They are on the back end of their 2nd HOF QB and there careers will most likely end with him. They must go all in now, 2022 does not matter, what matters is right now moving forward the next 3-4 years. Super Bowl

Heard on Packer radio that Capers is gone. Sounded like a sure thing.

A head coach who allows his team to get this messed up should be shown the door along with his entire staff. Time for a new system with new ideas and new personnel who are accountable for their actions.

As I see it we are criticizing Mike for overseeing a tanking—which seems like the best policy. There are plenty of issues to pick at but I am not unhappy with the best draft position available approach. We also learned some good things about a few fringe players. I hope we have the strength of mind to cut ties with some of those that showed no NFL potential. Sadly one of those has to be Hundley.

Let's be honest. GB had no intention of winning these last two games. Preseason started when we were eliminated. Improving our draft position with 11 draft picks was the most important objective. The team signed it's most important FAs. 2018 started 2 weeks ago. No use whining about 2017. Let's move on.

Here is how it goes in Green Bay:
Mark Murphy does not want to tell Ted Thompson how to do his job so he doen't.
Ted Thompson does not want to tell Mike McCartthy how do do his job so he doesn-t.
Mike McCarthy doesn't want to tell Com Capers how to do his job so he doesn't.
Com Capers does not want To tell his players how to do their jobs so he does't
Since no one wants to tell anyone how to do their jobs, nothing gets done.
Hmmmmmmmm. See the pattern here?

What's the justification for firing DC and keeping TT? Unless TT claims that DC told him he doesn't need any more/better players which is unlikely. Both have clear failures to perform.

MM should go with Hundley - which might mean that Hundley remains the backup.

I'm really curious what AR says about all this. Not that we will ever know.

I'm glad I didn't watch todays game. Took the grandkids to the aquarium. A much more productive day. A merciful end to a very telling and sad season in GB.

Just one last point - who's going to be picking AR's heir apparent in a few years? I certainly hope MM is not around when that happens.

I don’t see why everyone is on the fire MM wagon this is only his second losing season, only the third time he’s missed the playoffs, first time in 8 years. Hell Mike Tomlin has 2 8-8 seasons under his belt, has had the best RB, WR, and a top 5 QB for 5 seasons and some pretty good defenses and his seat is nice and comfy he hasn’t won a SB since 2008. Tomlin inherited a team and MM had to build his. The Packers need a new defensive staff and possibly a new trainer with all these damn injuries. Point is with those top flight offensive and defensive players the Steelers have they haven’t won squat and even they new it was time to part from their legendary DC and and adjust, MM needs that same opportunity.

Like how McCarthy says the team will be moving forward. Not with your play calling...

McCarthy and Thompson are bigger problems than Capers. Capers was just poorly managed.

The draft and promote culture for versatility is a big part of the problem. Who do you think is more likely to get injured, a player in his normal position or one playing several different positions? Who is likely to perform better, a jack of all trades or a master of one.

Capers intricate and versatile defense is too complex for a draft and developed team. These rookies and sophomores are overwhelmed with learning multiple positions and adapting to the NFL.

Aaron Rogers did most of McCarthys job and we see what happens when Mc Carthy plays are used in a game. Rodgers would change plays frequently because McCarthy made stupid play calls. Without Rodgers, McCarthys incompetence was apparent.

I'm not surprised that MM didn't fire Capers after the game. Most organizations wait until the team and staff return home from an away game to drop the axe. MM's history has been when he has fired a DC (Bob Sanders) or other coach, he has waited at least a week to do it. He just better not screw around and wait to long, because if there are good DC's fired in the next few days, he better not sit on his thumb and wait. I am going to give him the benefit of the doubt that he will start the interview process even before he tells Capers bu-bye. He may have already have done it, or they have agreed to letting Capers retire to save face. My fear is that instead of going outside of the organization to hire a DC, they just promote from within, like Winston Moss or Joe Whitt. To me that staff is tainted and all need to be swept out of the house.

Personally, my feelings are Capers and TT have to go this week. And I would be happy if MM was gone too. His pig-headed attitude with Hundley, how he doesn't make any real offensive changes, has a RB like Williams, who played his guts out yesterday, but won't use him as often as he should once Rodgers gets back, as he is so damn pass oriented that he forgets about running the ball after the middle of the first quarter. If he is so great a coach, he should be able to see that his offensive line would perform better if they ran the ball more instead of pass blocking constantly. If MM stays around, next season he must take advantage of the young RB's much more. And Rodgers may be partially at fault for constantly changing the play at the line of scrimmage. I think he has such a mindset that he has to be the one to make the plays to win, instead of having his RB's take the load off his back some.

Special teams coach Zook and the Strength and Conditioning coordinator Lovat need to go too. Lovat has been with the Pack 19 years and 8th as the S&C coordinator according to Packers.com. Seems to me that points to why this team has so many injuries. His system isn't working. Also, I think some of the blame belongs to TT, as he has drafted many injury prone players. I don't think he takes that into account much. That he concentrates on "draft the best athlete available" method. The thing is, are the players he drafts actually that? TT and Belichick are the longest tenured GM's in the league. TT can't come close to Belichick. TT just needs to go and refresh the organization. And Murphy is a joke. 10 years and hasn't had to make any kind of football decision. He needs to fire TT, or tell him to retire or else. Murphy is doing a good job and making the team money in other ways other than football. But if the team continues to slide into mediocrity because he won't pull the trigger, the organization will start to lose a lot of money overall. He knows he has the seats filled, but all the other money that comes in will start to dwindle.

Bears just fired head coach John Fox.

Lions just fired head coach Jim Caldwell

Raiders fired head coach Jack Del Rio yesterday.

Colts fired head coach Chuck Pagano yesterday.

So if the Pack indeed want Fangio, they better act quickly.

Hey maybe we can trade MM for a few of their best defensive players. If MM does for Trubisky what he has done with Hundley, the Bears will stay in the cellar for years to come!

MM may do with Dom what he did with Slocum, fire him and replace him with an assistant. We then get Dom-lite for the next 7 years just as we have with Zook on ST.
