As we approach the 10th anniversary of McCarthy's first game as Packers head coach, there seems to be more to be thankful for than not.  The Packers are still considered one of the best teams in the league and have very good odds to win another Super Bowl.  If someone said 10 years ago that would still be the case today, most would have been ecstatic.  By present standards, McCarthy has achieved high success at the highest level and deserves to continue on until that changes.  As far as I'm concerned, McCarthy's seat should feel about as hot as the Lambeau Field bleachers in mid-December.

I do like Mike, but I just feel that he's got this MARTYBALL obsession. He tenses up when it's all on the line-namely in the playoffs. The whole team emotionally contracts...and implodes. We saw that two years ago in the playoffs and we saw it last year in the regular season.

Mike has earned the right to turn that around, but he also needs to look deep within himself. Let your balls drop, Mike. Coaching scared will get you to the playoffs, if you have a good team. But it won't take you all the way.

Remember in '10 when he had everyone sized for rings BEFORE the game? We need THAT Mike.

Mike's seat is cooler than the other side of the pillow!

Thankfully Ted and the upper brass don't pay any attention to writers and fans !

The only way I see Mike losing his job is if he goes 2-14 or something crazy like that. Even if we don't make the play-offs at 9-7, Mike will be back next year to give it another shot.

Depending on the defensive numbers, Dom might have to go if the season turns out to be a disaster, but I don't really see any way we fire Mike.

McCarthy's tenure in Green Bay is secure at least until Aaron Rodgers exits stage left.
After that there will probably be a number of changes for various reasons and all bets will be off.

I would not be surprised if the seat is very hot under Mike McCarthy. He's been with the same team for a decade and sometimes your mantra falls on deaf ears and what is best is a new bark from a new dog.

The Pittsburgh Penguins and Cleveland Cavaliers both fired their coaches mid-season and won their respective league championships. Denver Broncos made a head coaching change and won the Super Bowl the following year. Baltimore Ravens fired their offensive coordinator mid-season and won the Super Bowl that same season.

I don't think his seat is not now, but somebody does have their hand on the knob to turn it up. And in the NFL that can heat up faster than an Induction Stove.

I do often wonder how much of McCarthy's success is the result of having HOF QBs playing for him. I wonder what coaches like John Harbaugh, Sean Payton, Lovie Smith might have done if they inherited Favre and was given Rodgers to follow. Would they have been better.

But I guess McCarthy did hire him.

dfosterf (22h) : Does anyone know what Lambeau field improvements got put on hold? My guess would be for the 2025 draft
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.
Zero2Cool (27-Mar) : They're fun to do once in awhile. It's people who think they are "content" that annoy me.

dfosterf (27-Mar) : In my city, they are playing the nimby game, in order to keep some railroad tracks vs. 2 professional sports teams and a concert venue.
dfosterf (27-Mar) : And/Or a city council, of which I haven't seen a good one in a very long time
dfosterf (27-Mar) : That sounds like a Mayor, not a city.
buckeyepackfan (26-Mar) : Packers halt scheduled 80mil upgrade of stadium until lease agreement talks are restarted

Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Yeah, challenge until you are incorrect twice.
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Fining them is the goal, per the people who made the rule anyway.
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
beast (25-Mar) : Simply fined in the week to follow
beast (25-Mar) : I agree with one NFL official, it'll probably be like some of the helmets hits, not really called by the refs on the field but simply fined
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Hip drop is not. Super confusing. Referees job is harder
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Swivel hip drop is banned
dfosterf (25-Mar) : The hip drop enforcement will be in the form of fines, etc. Not flags
dfosterf (25-Mar) : A major foul will be enforced on the offense if there are offsetting penalties in a change of possession situation
