Scoremore Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 I have a suggestion. Fire Mike McCarthy and then hire Mike McCarthy. God you guys. Be careful what you wish for. We already have a very good HC. I understand the frustration we had a lost season last year. This year also not so great. Last year Aaron was gone. This year Aaron is playing on a bad leg. It's not MM it's Aaron. Team is making good progress. Pettine is turning the Defense around. On Offense they are OK but not great. A lot of this is because of Aaron. Give him major credit for playing through the injury but it is clearly affecting his play. MM had the team ready to go. We have had a few bad breaks this year. Is what it is. Firing the HC is not the answer IMO. If they were coming out flat like that first half of the opener I'd be on board. The team is playing hard. MM has not lost them. Listened to Aaron's presser see no problems there. Barring a complete collapse I'd like to give him at least another season to turn this thing around.

W1 - Came out flat W2 - played well for majority of game W3 - Came out flat W4 - one of the worst teams in league W5 - came out flat W6 - came out fine, then stagnant W8 - defense good, offense stagnant until late. Player goes rogue loses us the game. Tell me how we haven't come out flat in the majority of the games this year? In the games we didn't our offense was stagnant for the majority of the game. You can say that is Aaron's fault and some of it is, but guess what? Rodgers is going anywhere. That means MM is out or we just do this dance one year from now. People have been having this antiquated scheme conversations going on 2 years now. I think it is time for a new age OC to take the helm. DeFlippo and Pettine would be a heck of a combo. Have Petting be the HC of the defense and let DeFlippo handle the offense. This offense can only get better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoremore Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Blitz you have a new GM, new Defensive coordinator, and a new Offensive coordinator. Lot of changes. Aaron has not played to his usual standards. BECAUSE HE IS INJURED. Not to hard to understand. Guy is physically limited and unable to practice. This makes a difference. Can't just pretend it doesn't have an impact. So you hire a new HC. I would say this would set the team back at least a year as everyone has to learn a new system. Whatever we can disagree. I'll admit I was wrong on Capers. Defended him up until his last year when I finally had enough. You guys may very well get your wish. Depends on the balance of the season. Right now think the fire MM crowd is premature. Unless he loses the team (which he hasn't) I still favor giving him another year to turn it around. Lot of knowledgeable guys around here disagree. My opinion on it for what it's worth which is not much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or you go with Pettine with Philbin calling the plays. Speed bumps all removed and you consider more long term changes in the off season - when everybody else does it with minimal negative effect.

This ensures our beloved Green Bay Football Packers will continue snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the Packers pull it together and win the Superbowl this year. Laugh all you want they are healthy and have a chance. Be curious how many people will be calling for MM's head then. What would it take for you guys to want to keep MM? Win the division? Win a playoff game? Win a Divisional game and advance to the NFC championship? Or is nothing short of a Superbowl win enough? Season isn't over people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jleisher Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 McCarthy is traded to Cleveland for their 1st rd picks 2019, 2020 and 2021? Just talking crap, sorry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragnar Danneskjold Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Answer these two questions: 1: If the Packers miss the playoffs this year, should they replace Mike McCarthy? 2: If the Packers win the Super Bowl this year, should they replace Mike McCarthy? Then answer this 3rd question: If the answer to the first two questions is different, is it too early to answer the question of this thread?

I don't want to get stuck with interim Mike Pettine after this year. I think Mac probably wants out as much, if not more, than internally we want him gone. Just my feeling.

Sasquatch Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Here’s an article suggesting Mac could be a candidate for the Browns job, along with Riley, McDaniels, Harbaugh, Toub, etc. Riley is an interesting prospect as it would reunite him with his former pupil, Mayfield. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/browns-coaching-candidates-lincoln-riley-mike-mccarthy-jim-harbaugh-top-list-after-hue-jackson-fired/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
