It's a what if scenario obviously and I kind of think Holmgrem will stay west or end up in Dallas, but I cannot believe what I'm reading.

Mike Holmgrem left Green Bay for a promotion in Seattle and more money. People still haven't gotten over that evidently.

I would bring in Mike Holmgrem in a heartbeat. All he did was help take the laughing stock known as the Green Bay Packers and turn them into one of the most successful teams of the 90's.

All he did was take a Seattle Seahawks team that was a laughing stock and help turn them into a playoff team for just about every single season. He also took them to a Super Bowl where they were beaten in large part due to being on the bad side of some bad officiating.

Mike Holmgrem is a Hall of Fame coach. He's one of only two coaches in the history of the NFL to take two different teams to the Super Bowl. The other is Bill Parcells.

It's funny that last night I was up late and watching an old game. It was the Monday Night game against the 49ers where the Packers came back and won on an OT field goal by Chris Jackie. The Packers were bigger, faster, stronger, and better coached back then.

Do I like Mike McCarthy?

He's an ok coach.

He's not a Hall of Fame coach.

Mike Holmgrem is.

Mike Sherman took a fall for a 4-12 year. McCarthy taking a fall for a 5-11 year wouldn't be that bizarre.

Now again this is a what if situation and this inst' going to happen, but I cant say I'd feel sad if it did.

Nope....i don't want him back.
He's the reason we lost SB 32.

The only play I remember from that Superbowl is the pass skipping short of Chmura on 4th down. It replayed in my head over and over for about 6 months.

The whole coaching carousal in the NFL is a joke. Basically you got one year to to have a winning year and even after that one bad year and you're garbage. How in the heck is a coach ever suppose to get anywhere putting a franchise together. I a huge fan of routine and I love what I see with the Broncos, Steelers and Titans in the way they treat coaching staff. Maybe this is why those are three of the more stable franchises. I just feel if you're gonna fire a coach after every losing season you better nevr hire one to more then a one year deal

I don't want Holmgren back. I'm happy for the opportunity he had and I understand for the most part why he jumped at it. But I can't shake the feeling that he abandoned us and the team.

I think if all the Favre Lovers would get over last summer and shut up we would have a lot more interesting posts in the Packer forums.

Zero2Cool (20h) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
Zero2Cool (20h) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.
Zero2Cool (20h) : They're fun to do once in awhile. It's people who think they are "content" that annoy me.
dfosterf (20h) : Against tbd
dfosterf (20h) : Answer to your question is yes, it's a Thursday, will be the Chiefs aga
dfosterf (20h) : Luckily for all concerned, I don't post them. I did one, but that was like 25 mocks ago
Zero2Cool (20h) : NFL 2024 gonna start Sept 5th isn't it???

Zero2Cool (21h) : Did we do one of those prediction threads yet for 2024 season?
dfosterf (21h) : 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 (21h) : And/Or a city council, of which I haven't seen a good one in a very long time
dfosterf (21h) : 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 (26-Mar) : City of Green Bay puts Packers' Lambeau Field lease talks on hold
buckeyepackfan (26-Mar) : Packers 1 of 3 teams to vote no on new kickoff rule.
Zero2Cool (26-Mar) : Packers sign another Kicker

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
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Teams will receive a 3rd challenge if 1 was successful. Previously, it took 2
