I don't think he is underrated. I actually think because of the QBs he has had to work with, as a coach he is probably overrated. Put McCarthy in Chicago instead of Green Bay and give him Grossman, Greise, Orton, Cutler as his QBs and he is probably an OC someplace today instead of being a head coach 1 game from another SB.

A HC with Brett and Aaron back to back should have been in the chip more than that!

Only 4 times in 11 years? New England has been there 6 years in a row!

Because what New England has done and is doing is so common, right? This is kind of where I'm going with what the Packers and Mike McCarthy have done is not really being appreciated by some. Not all, just some. Which is fine. You can't please everyone. Some are simply impossible to please and have unrealistic demands.

Check out the story about how McCarthy handled the team after the Redskins loss.

Mike McCarthy has been a hindrance to winning MORE. FOUR OT LOSSES in the playoffs!? That's pretty hard to do when you've had back to back HOF QB's to coach.

Expectations for more are not unrealistic be it me or anyone else expecting it. The masses think what has been done is wonderful. How lucky we are to have MM! That's fine. There are some who realize that 10-7 in the playoffs is not something to brag about when you've trotted out back to back HOF QB's.

The point was made that Mike McCarthy gets no in season help from our GM. That's fair. If Mike McCarthy had better players he'd be a better coach for sure. If it ain't MM, it's someone who is holding us back. Who could that be? A simple signing of Jared Cook changed our O immensely. We lose yesterday without him had we played with RR, Bostick and Perrillo. Many of us screamed for a legit TE with speed. Many said RR was just fine and they trusted Ted. Pretty clear how that one shook out.

Add Woodson and Pickett...SB championship.

Add Peppers...into the NFC Championship (he's hung around way too long now, though)

Add Cook...into the NFC Championship

See a pattern emerging? We need to add pieces via FA that we desperately need. When we don't we don't get anywhere near the SB. Aaron is such a monumental advantage for us that it's plain sad how little he's been helped by our ultra conservative mentality to winning championships in Green Bay.

Packers have been playing in a weak division for years. Put Mike McCarthy in a stronger division and no Rodgers, MM's record would be dismal. Guess who called the last play of the game yesterday? It's wasn't MM. There should be at least 2 more SB Trophy's, i.e. 15-1 season and possibly last season, if not for his failure during the Seattle game.......

That said, I take Lombardi, then Holmgren, then McCarthy.

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 (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
