First off the BOD doesn't control as much as you've been posting. Yes I've read McGinn, I'am a subscriber because his weekly grades and scouts are still miles ahead of that garbage the Gannetts goons put out.

But to the question, Murphy was forced into this in my opinion AFTER the Browns snatched up Dorsey. They beat him to the punch.(wake up call) Before this Murphy has for the most part let the ship run. He was tasked to get the Titletown district up and running and other business issues to keep Green bay financially stable in the long term.

He has done so and the BOD has shown that they do trust him. Much of the opinion you and I and everyone is basing opinions on isn't "sources' but of opinions of people in and or around the organization. So while I love the discussion and added traffic this causes I am also sure that most of it is smoke and mirrors ment to create clicks.

Mark Murphy love him or hate him isn't going anywhere soon. He will hire a GM who will structure the football operations his way. Mike McCarthy will be the coach in 2018. Beyond that business as usual.

68...Are you sure Mike McCarthy is the coach THIS year much less "beyond"? McGinn wrote of MM's disgust with Ted not going for it. In his presser he spoke loud and clear about doing enough to win WORLD championships, not divisional or conference.

I love this whole thing. It has shown a giant light on the issues I've been on about for years.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Ball with Gunt or Wolf as Asst GM in charge of personal could work out just fine however the big elephant in the room is fixing a lousy defense and keeping #12 upright. If they can't do that then Mike McCarthy will be interviewing for a job himself this time next year.

Wow. You know for sure Mike McCarthy is the coach this year. I think if you watched the presser you saw a guy who kept saying: IT HAS TO FIT FOR ME, TOO What was that all about? McGinn and Wilde don't appear to be having anything blown. If the fit is not what Mike McCarthy wants then...what? I think that is the scenario both McGinn and Wilde are reporting on. Mike McCarthy doesn't want Russ as Russ ain't going to be about winning SB's just like Ted before him.

How can you conclude Mike McCarthy is the coach for certain given what happened to Mike Sherman? The quiet extension which still makes no sense, BTW, may have been a golden parachute. A thank you, if you will, for years of loyal complicit service. Can anyone come up with a reason MM's one year extension wasn't announced until after Ted was out of the way?

There is a rotten stench coming off of 1265. If Mike McCarthy thought the manure smell was bad...

dfosterf (21-Apr) : One playbook to my knowledge. I was shooting for facetious.
beast (20-Apr) : I'm not sure they have different playbooks for different OL positions, and Dillard run blocking is supposedly worse than his pass blocking..
dfosterf (19-Apr) : The only problem with that is he isn't a guard either.
dfosterf (19-Apr) : Put him at right guard. That is where he will be coached. That is where he will compete. He is not even allowed to look at the LT playbook.
dfosterf (18-Apr) : Kidding aside, I hope the best for him.
dfosterf (18-Apr) : Went to a Titans board. One comment there. Not very long. I quote: "LOL" They don't sound overly upset about our aquisition.
beast (18-Apr) : OT Dillard has been absolutely horrible... like OG Newman levels
dfosterf (18-Apr) : Suit him up and have him stand in front of the big board as a draft day cautionary tale.
