formerlyofCtown Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Watching Rogers lately on and off the field. I could be wrong but I dont recall Favre ever blaming his coach. Favre seemed like the thing that mattered most was playing. He took what was handed to him and went with it. Kyle Williams is like that as well. A lot of other players on our teams b**** and cried while Kyle bought in. Kyle is really a process guy. A lot of people question what trusting the process is. I think it's buying in to the direction the team is going, the scheme that is being implimented and being patient while the right players are aquired. What happened with McCarthy and probably Rexy is players stopped buying in. They didnt trust the Scheme on defense and didnt have faith in Rex He didnt have enough time to aquire the players he needed to run his defensive scheme (The defense never bought in because they prefered Schwartz, too many draft misses. Not that they were bad players but they werent scheme fits.) The offense bought into Lynn, I thing thats why the offense probably over acheived and why the chargers are doing well. So Rogers is an arrogant duesch. McCarthy got fired (because Rogers isnt Brett Favre or as much as I hate to say it but Brady. I don't recall either of their coaches ever getting fired.) And relax we are in good shape because the players and the owners buy what McBeane is selling and they are drafting really well and hit on some really good RFAs to run what they want. We'll be winning in no time. I hope everyone on this board gets off the fire McBeane train ( everyone whose on it). Because McBeane aint getting fired. Sorry if I got on a tangent. Had a bit to drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

formerlyofCtown Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 26 minutes ago, Livinginthepast said: In some ways I feel bad for him. He has had a lot of bad luck and some incredibly bogus calls go against him. In the end though he made a number of blunders that killed them in crucial games. McCarthy's job was to make sure that he elevated all the talent that the team and put them in a position to win. Instead he had them second guessing themselves and losing to lesser teams. So did Rex and a lot of other coaches we've had. The fact is you have to keep your players buying in and he couldnt. Wether it was due to poor descisions I dont know but its clear he did. Those players are better than there record. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoBills! Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 "The 2018 season has not lived up to the expectations and standards of the Green Bay Packers. As a result, I made the difficult decision to relieve Mike McCarthy of his role as head coach, effective immediately," Packers president Mark Murphy said in a statement. "Mike has been a terrific head coach and leader of the Packers for 13 seasons, during which time we experienced a great deal of success on and off the field. We want to thank Mike.... Where does he land? Browns? Bengals? Jax? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpberr Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Packers are in trouble. They have so much money tied up in Rodgers that they have little room for failure in the draft.

26CornerBlitz Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 McCarthy Addressed Players, Coaches After Firing The Green Bay Packers moved on from Mike McCarthy but didn't banish the former coach from the facility. Interim coach Joe Philbin said the team allowed McCarthy to address the team on Wednesday. Team president Mark Murphy, manager Brian Gutekunst, director of football operations Russ Ball and Philbin also permitted McCarthy to speak to the coaching staff on Tuesday. "We all saw him as a staff, which was great," Philbin said Thursday, via ESPN. "Then we talked, and he wanted an opportunity to speak with the team. I was 100 percent, fully supportive of [it], and he did a fantastic job talking to the team. Not just about football and winning football games, but his passion. His passion for the game, his love for the players was clearly evident. I'm sure it was emotional for him and everybody in the room. It was awesome. I thought he did a great job." It's unusual for a team to allow a fired coach to address his former players and staff, but the Packers thought it would bring some closure after McCarthy led the Packers for 13 years. "He spoke to the team yesterday and that was good," Murphy said on WTMJ radio. "I think Mike wanted some closure with the players and some of the other coaches to be able to thank them and say goodbye to them as well."

Less run game? I don't think so. Lack of OL, mebbe. I would guess lack of defense, and whatever they need and don't got on ST - stupid ST play.

Dopey Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Winston Moss on FOX this morning was interesting. What I got out of it: 1. Aaron has been the " coach" the last few years. 2. Aaron should have input in the next coach, but that's it. Decision shouldn't be soley his. 3. Lastly, he pulled out a couple of Championship rings(1 college and 1 SB) and explained both were the result of TEAM victories, not just 1 player.

Brett Favre on coaching the Packers: Only 'intrigued' but 'never say never' Scott Gleeson-USA Sports 7 hrs ago Former Green Bay Packers quarterback Brett Favre said he's "not ready" to become an NFL coach and fill the vacancy for his former team. But the Hall of Famer kept the idea open long-term, saying he's "learned to never say never" on what the future might hold. "It's definitely interesting," Favre told TMZ Sports of the possibility of coaching the Packers. "But believe me, that's not going to happen. How can you not be intrigued by that? They would never offer, but even if they would, that's ... I'm not ready for that and neither are they." https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/brett-favre-on-coaching-the-packers-only-intrigued-but-never-say-never/ar-BBQR3Dt?li=BBnba9I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
