Seriously. I've tried to stay on the McCarthy train but thats enough. Punting it on 4th and 2? Whats the point? You might as well admit you've given up. Completely unprepared in the second half as usual.

Rodgers refuses to throw the open checkdown. I don't know if its defiance of McCarthy, I have no freaking clue what it is, but he's got open 6 yard crossers right in front of his face and he just will not throw the ball. They dont even bother to cover Aaron Jones and he just will not throw the swing pass. He won't. I dont know what you do about that other than bring in another HC who he actually respects and see what happens then.

Defense is fine but why are you fire blitzing on 3rd and 9 there? So obvious. Just play coverage. But the D is not the problem. It's time to pick between McCarthy and Rodgers because this crap is just not working between them. 3 points in the half of a must win game is complete nonsense.

Rodgers and McCarthy used to be a tight unit, and the Packers were electric in 2011, but something changed along the way and it's time to move on.

Fire McCarthy or get rid of both. I'm not convinced Rodgers is worth the contract he was just paid. He's not taking what the defense is giving him.

What's his reason for not throwing to the open receivers underneath? Has he been asked that in an interview?

I'm just going to put this out there: If Aaron Rodgers doesn't learn how to take what the defense gives him and get the ball out faster, he will never make it to another Super Bowl.

MM press conference is on. Tired of the crap needed to turn it off. So disappointed to lose another game that was within our grasp.

McCarthy used to be known as one of the most aggressive, risk-taking head coaches in the league, but that changed sometime in 2014, if not before. The higher the stakes, the more conservative he gets, and it bites him the ass just about every single time.


He's not. Not at this point, anyway, and probably not any time in the past two years or so. I'm with yooper on this: I don't understand why the team didn't wait to see how he performed this season before falling all over themselves to make it rain. It's not like his fractured collarbone was a minor injury. Careers have gone downhill for less.


I doubt anyone has the balls to broach the topic.

---

Does anyone have the balls in the locker room to tell him that, coach or player?

---

Regardless, the numbers don't lie. The Packers are 28-28-1 since the 2015 bye week.

---

Why did you pick that point in time?

---

Mike is being a straight up pussy. He won't stand up to his QB who is not doing his job, he doesn't trust his RB in short yardage situations, and he chooses to punt the ball on the (most likely) last posession when trailing.

I might just quit watching until he is gone - too damn frustrating to see these games slip away every fucking week.

I didn't. Someone else did -- two weeks ago. He mentioned McCarthy's record in his previous 50 games, but then someone pointed out that that number ignored his 1-3 record the four weeks previous to that, so they added it together and came up with 27-27-1. The Packers have gone 1-1-0 since.

It's purely arbitrary, as all such things are.
