I like MM, but would have to go with Ted Thompson because of depth. I've never seen depth like this in my history of following the Packers. I remember Bart Starr used to use injuries as his excuse. Injuries late in the season always doomed Sherman teams.

This year, it's been like "who's that guy?" is making a sack, or "where did we get that guy?" is filling in nicely for ____. Credit for that goes to Ted. Mike though deserves some props for keeping the team together despite all the injuries.

Heck, we almost beat the SB favorite in their stadium with our backup QB. If that isn't impressive, I don't know what is.

Jesus, in college if you were asked to write an paper on whether Canada or the USA had a better medical system, and you wrote a paper on how Sweden had a the best medical system would you get a passing grade?

I think the professor would tell you he thought following instructions was taught in high school.

oh yes, and I'd go with mccarthy.

he overcame his OL (for which I give Ted Thompson large responsibility).

Both have done a fine job in my view. Of the two, I believe Ted Thompson is the better asset. He is one of the best GMs in football in my view. Mike McCarthy still has a lot to prove to me, but he has gone from being very stubborn to learning and changing his philosophy. I am not talking about the major things so to speak, but the little things. The adjustments he makes throughout the year. That is very impressive and you can go back to the Tampa Bay loss in 09 as the beginning of that change. Still, of the two, Thompson is the puppet master. He came in with Brett Favre nearing the end of his career and he has built the Packers to the point where there is no reason why they cannot have another decade of winning. Only one other team loss a legend and went onto success immediately following the departure of that player. That was the San Francisco 49ers.

I voted MM but I if I had the option to vote both, I would. For Mike to be able to plug in players that have never seen the field and still have success, that is amazing. But definitely props to Ted Thompson for finding and bringing n the depth talent.

I plain refuse to answer this question for it might be used against me at a later time 😛 So at this time I have the right to remain silent and wait for my lawyer 🙂
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Without a doubt, Ted Thompson. The reason we have been able to be successful despite all the injuries, is a result of the depth Ted Thompson has provided this team.

There are some people that will praise Ted Thompson for the depth, when we win, but when we lose, will use the injury card as an excuse. You can't have it both ways. You can't use the injury card as an excuse, after saying the team has great depth.

Ted has loaded this roster with talent. As we see this year in particular. Capers gets more than the sum of those parts, but MM gets less than the sum of his parts on offense.

I voted for M^2.

im a believer that the "talent" across the NFL is pretty balanced between clubs, coordinators and coaches on the other hand are the ones responcible for designing the schemes and calling the plays to put players in the best position to make an impact.

and for the most part IMO Mike has done a great job of doing that (along with Capers who MM is credited for hiring).

PLAYERS are the ones who break the most plays (drops,fumble,running into O-linemen, penaltys.)
