He will be gone after next year. Rodgers will force his way out and the team will go 4-13 without him. 

 

The more I think of it, the more I think Rodgers demanding such an insanely expensive contract was simply a power move. He's wanted out for a couple years but Green Bay is in this weird spot where they don't want to build around him and win but they don't want him going somewhere else either. 

 

It puts him in this position: let me go or pay me $50 million next year but I'm not retiring.

 

IMO the Green Bay thing became deeply personal, and everyone dug in. MGT wanted Rodgers to retire and Rodgers wanted out. MGT refused because then they would go 3-14 while Rodgers played at an MVP level somewhere else. So, force the guy to retire instead was the strategy.

I think Chicago takes a QB. The new regime doesn’t seem to have much faith in Fields as a QB and he was terrible this season. 

If Chicago wants to select a QB they can probably get a reasonable return on Fields.  Not sure what that is, but, maybe a 2nd rounder.  Maybe a even a 1st after the top 10.

How does “Riverboat Ron” still have a job?

Got them to the playoffs year one and has kept them competitive with hot garbage at QB.     My guess is they clear space by cutting Wentz and go after one of the better QBs who will be available in free agency.   Gets one more year to see what he can do with someone like Derek Carr.

If the Ravens and Lamar don't work out a deal, thats one that makes sense.

 

I wouldn't want Fields, but Harbaugh could make it work

Ownership is in flux. Hes gone next year barring a massive improvement

Just look at all the teams that need a QB. Fields would fetch more than that. I’d love to see him in a Shanahan style offense - but not in Miami please.

Mike LaFleur out with the Jets...kinda surprising...

Lefleur should be fired.

 

Between the Packers player walking in between the lines of scrimmage during the FG attempt and grabbing the ball from the center, and later another couple of players shoving Lions training staff it's like they were all on something.

 

Totally out of control team that wasted some of the best seasons of Rodgers career 

 

His brother was just fired with the Jets.

The awfulness of the NFC got him to the playoffs (with a 7-9 record).

 

He has zero winning seasons there.  he has 3 winning seasons in a 12 year HC career.  He rode Cam Newton into the ground with 3 playoff wins to show for it.

lol Carr is gonna be the guy who makes Ron into a relevant coach again?  Like Wentz?  

 

Look at who Rivera has brought in at QB:  Wentz, Heinicke, Garrett Gilbert, Kyle Allen, Sam Howell, and Fitzy (the best of that bunch).  So now all he is really missing is a guy like Carr, a guy who has burned through a bunch of HCs. 

 

nah..

He took an extemely horrible offense and made them competitve. Defense is very good

 

see above.  "competitive" is almost a meaningless term in the NFC.  Tampa is in the playoffs (that's competitive!)---actually winning their division with a losing record.  Packers were facing a "win and you're in" game with only 8 wins.  The 9-8 Seahawks (led by Geno Smith!!!) got in courtesy of Detroit (9-7) beating an awful Aaron Rodgers and his DOA Packer team (in 'Legendary Lambeau Field").

 

Washing stinks.  Ron is long past his freshness date.  He's a relic and those kind of guys are only still around if they were game changers/SB winners.  Even some of them (BB) are pretty much done.  Riverboat Ron brings nothing.

Chicago needs to hire Jim Caldwell as HC to work with Fields. Trade the first pick to get more assets to fix the offensive line and get Fields a passing weapon. Either best WR or TE

Dysfunctional franchise.

So, that's it? Kingsbury and Smith as the only HCs fires after the season? Seems a little surprising to me.

 

Also, no mention on Patricia being fired as OC in NE? Or did I miss separate thread?

 

 

He isn't OC.
