Mazrimiv Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 With the way this season is unfolding it will be a good test to see whether Mac can get this team back on track. The tough schedule coming up after the bye could derail the season, or could be exactly what the team needs to get re-focused. Wouldn't be the first time GB got things turned around under Mac when I thought he was losing the team. Since about 2013, it seems like GB fans are having this same conversation every October. All that being said, in a world where Mac is cut loose, I can't pretend I'd be overly upset about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltarich87 Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Yeah, that's where I'm at. I think McCarthy would be let go if GB misses the playoffs this year with Rodgers starting all 16 games, but IDK what Murphy does if they barely get in and then promptly get bounced in the WC game. The facts are that this team hasn't made it to the SB since 2010, and at some point you gotta change things up with Rodgers getting closer and closer to the end of his career. Plenty of season left to figure things out though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a billion dollars organization, moves should be calculated. Significantly so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sasquatch Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 So if GB finishes 8-7-1, which is highly possible, and miss the playoffs with Rodgers starting all 16 games, what does the organization do, considering the call for Macs head will be quite loud? For me, it will depend on a lot of things that transpired between now and then, regardless of the final record: how the team performs overall, the temperature between Mac and Rodgers, injuries to key personnel, etc. I guess I just can’t make any conclusive decisions about Macs future without the rest of the season as important context.

Packerraymond Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 One of the highest penalized teams in the NFL, worst in the NFL on 3rd down distance to go, have at least a quarter in 5 of 6 games where we've been blown out, little to no progression from the 2015, 2016 or 2017 draft classes. Mac hasn't earned anything, and I'm a Mac supporter. These next 5 games tell me if I'm keeping Mac or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with this a lot with the caveat I haven't checked 3rd and distance numbers but it certainly feels like we suck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

incognito_man Posted October 18, 2018 Author Share Posted October 18, 2018 I think the best indicator is to see how Rodgers talks about MM recently and going forward. I haven't really paid attention, but that would be the best evidence one way or another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, and I hope that doesn’t happen because it’s not very professional, nor is it conduct becoming of a star player in this league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm saying reading between the lines. Not expecting him to say "Fire Mac!" or anything ? Rodgers wears himself on his sleeve a bit, so I suspect a close observer (like @deltarich87) would be able to pick up on things of importance.

Rodgers sometimes takes subtle jabs that might fly below the radar of most folks. If his rhetoric moving forward gets less subtle, then we know there’s a problem. I’m saying I hope that doesn’t happen for Rodgers sake, and for the team’s quite frankly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
