So Ahman69 thinks Ted will\should get fired if the packers dont get a superbowl and we're supposed to take this seriously. Right now?

We're 3-1.

4-1 in four days. But lets talk about firing our GM,coach,etc. Jeez, some people dont even wait for the offseason anymore. Why do they even bother playing the games?

I just don't know anymore. I'm probably biased based on the events of the past week, so I'll try to be as objective as I can.

I've watched this team for my entire life. I remember the good times, and I especially remember the bad. Under Thompson, a good young core of players has been put into place that should ensure success for seasons to come. McCarthy's definitely shown that he can create an offense that can seemingly score at will.

For the past few years, this team has been talked up about how it's primed to win a superbowl. But you know what - I just don't think either McCarthy nor Thompson has that killer instinct to get this team there. Take this week for instance - instead of going in for the kill to get Lynch, Thompson yet again gets outbid for a player. On the McCarthy side, when's the last time we saw this team really put someone away?

Champions go in for the kill. Champions step on the opposition's throat. And while I can't exactly fault Thompson for not getting Lynch or whomever and the same goes for McCarthy, it's damned frustrating. It seems as though there's a sense of complacency on parts of the roster - no rush to improve this part or that. It pains me as a fan to see Rodgers and Woodson, among others, waste seemingly another season.

Lack of a killer instinct. A tricky concept, but I haven't seen it from either Thompson or McCarthy. I've seen flashes - examples being Thompson trading up for Matthews and McCarthy calling that fake punt in the playoff game...but just that - only flashes.

I'm rambling. And this post came off biased, I'm sure.

I wait the entire off season, but never ends up happening.

Not disagreeing, but I can't think of any slam duck move that would have helped. at least not prior to injuries or something. there is lots of speculation on player X or Y. I think building from the draft is the right way and I have always liked our youth(depth) at the time.

---

Agreed. However adding one or two future hall of famers, like Reggie and Woodson, to balance the team out is not a bad idea either. Let this whole thing play out before calling for Ted Thompson job...

---

The Packers are 3-1, and Thompson and McCarthy are safe this year unless the team completely falls apart and it's not because of a plague of injuries.

---

Put it this way. I'm sure glad NOW that Ted Thompson didn't trade Hawk. Can you Imagine starting Bishop and Simpkins for the next 6-8 weeks?
At least this way, if we need to we can trade for some LB help. Hell, maybe Starks will do what Ryan Grant did in 07. Remember, we can resign Quinn Porter after a certain number of weeks too.

Really guys why do you think MM is a bad coach?He turned Aaron Rodgers into what he is today,He is a good offensive minded coach.Lets not forget he hired Capers and Kevin Greene only one thats suspect is slocum.His record as a coach is 42-29 not to shaby.

---

Yes, he developed Rodgers, but, at the same time, Rodgers could be more successful, with all those receivers, in another system. McCarthy is the NFC's answer to Norv Turner. He has more than enough tools at his disposal, yet, year after year, can not figure out how to them properly.

---

MM is a stellar QB guru. Beyond that, he's got plenty to prove. I was on the verge of writing him off last year. We'll see what happens this year.
