You have to hand it to Philbin. He set a record his first week out.

So was Mike's firing a surprise to him?

If it was why would they fire our coach like this? Is he a criminal? oh is it because other teams do this and ... then its ok.

Have you ever been fired like this? Do you think its a professional thing to do especially if you had been somewhere for what 13 years?

I thought the packers organization was a professional outfit.

I dont know the full story - I just hope it was handled professionally.

My wife worked her butt off for 17 years at a factory. Then one day she gets a FedEx envelope that said “we are closing the doors in 90 days, you are out of a job”. And even though it’s a huge company with plants all over the country, and my wife was constantly getting awards for her work, they wouldn’t let her or the other workers from her plant move into their other factories. And Mike McCarthy still gets paid, a LOT of money even though he lost his job.

We got help today.

Pretty sure we're still alive for the playoffs.

We've been getting a ton of help every week. It's like only 2 teams in the NFC actually want to make the playoffs. Every other team is actively trying to give us their spot and we keep reaching out and swatting it away saying we don't want the spot either.

My point is Mike should of been treated with more respect.

Gee whiz I'm sure McCarthy's super offended he lost his job in the middle of the season as opposed to having this process drawn out for weeks and weeks for no reason.

It became abundantly clear in the first two minutes of Sunday’s game against the Falcons that red-flag happy interim coach Joe Philbin won’t be a viable candidate for the full-time coaching gig in Green Bay. So what will the Packers do?

I'll grant you that Philbin's decision to throw the flags in rapid succession wasn't conventional practice, but to say it makes it "abundantly clear" that he isn't a "viable candidate" for the head coaching job strikes me as a bit of a stretch. If nothing else, it's clear that the players like him and are willing to play hard for him. Whether that's enough to take a risk on him as the tenured head coach going forward is obviously a matter for discussion.

Let's see what Philbin does against the Bears. It was so nice to have a game that felt easy. As I said in the chat, it was nice to put the boots to the Falcons due to our recent disappointments against them. That being said the Falcons are a bad team this year. Let's light the Bears up like that and perhaps Philbin does have a potential HC job here.

Philbin was right to challenge both of those. Not his fault the refs got 2 calls wrong in the first 3 plays and then doubledowned on them by letting them stand. I'm actually impressed he had the balls to do it.

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.

beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

Zero2Cool (9-May) : And the OL protections seem to be good.

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : 4th

Zero2Cool (9-May) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (9-May) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (9-May) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (9-May) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."

beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.

Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).

buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though

TheKanataThrilla (3-May) : Packers decline 5th year option for Stokes

Mucky Tundra (3-May) : @ProFootballTalk Jaylen Warren: Steelers' special teams coach has discussed Justin Fields returning kicks.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.

dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that

dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)

Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!

packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol
