What do you think about that?

Aaron Rodgers has been extremely supportive of Tom Clements (his former position coach) in calling the plays. We have also witnessed a lot of little feuds between Rodgers and Mike McCarthy. It's been reported that Rodgers was in a less than stellar mood most of the week and on Friday with an ounce of sarcasm said "what a week its been".

Jason Wilde is not making anything of it, but did note that he doesn't remember the last time he's seen the quarterback and his coach hug it out in the locker room.

Recently when asked about taking back play calling duties, McCarthy said "Frankly I need to shut up" which matches reports that McCarthy has had more influence on the plays being called.

Remember also McCarthy said several weeks ago that he feels "Rodgers is trying too hard" and Rodgers scoffed at that notion?

I think we have a rift (which I opined about a year or two ago as well - Ray Charles noticed too) between our Head Coach and Quarterback.


I'm moderately and cautiously optimistic on this change because I think Clements had only a few chapters of the playbook being used whereas McCarthy will utilize the full playbook.


Let's get it on!!

Hopefully it helps. Take control of the offense and make sure all of the players are doing as you intend.

I think it is time to realize Mike McCarthy is a great OC but not a good coach, we did everythinh backwards.
Tom Clements just failed he has no idea about how to run an NFL offense, he is just a rolodex of passing plays.

Certainly surprising; didn't think the coaching staff would make a big change like this midseason.

It's fine. What is the reasoning behind this? Did they "promote" Clements to something harmless?

I'd prefer Edgar Bennett, but we'll see how it goes. Hopefully we'll go back to only having the customary TWO quarters of lull. lol

So what does Clements do during the game now? He's listed as assistant head coach/offense . Perhaps he can take over QB coaching responsibilities so van Pelt can focus exclusively on the WRs?

Tom Clements has been promoted to vice president of passing play selection and his majesty Aaron Rodgers valet.

I think Mark Murphy may have dropped a few heavy hints that change is in the wind if the circus isn't corrected. I think it is a step in the right direction but let's see if the players respond. It has been ugly out there lately.

I'm sure that'll help Davante Adams catch the ball.

Zero2Cool (49m) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.
dfosterf (3h) : I'm going with a combination of the two.
beast (4h) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC
Zero2Cool (21h) : Fake news. Cowboys say no
Zero2Cool (22h) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.
beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?
beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you
wpr (22-Jan) : Z, glad you are feeling better.
wpr (22-Jan) : My son and D-I-L work for UM. It's a way to pick on them.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.
wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.
Martha Careful (22-Jan) : just kidding...it was down
Martha Careful (22-Jan) : you were blocked yesterday, due to a a recalcitrant demeanor yesterday in the penalty box for a recalcitrant demeanor
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Was that site shutdown on your end or mine? No big deal, just curious
beast (21-Jan) : That way teams like Indiana and SMU don't make the conference championships by simply avoiding all the other good teams in their own confere
beast (21-Jan) : Also, with these "Super Conferences" instead of a single conference champion, have 4 teams make a Conference playoffs.
beast (21-Jan) : Also in college football, is a bye week a good or bad thing?
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : The tournament format was fine. Seeding could use some work.
beast (21-Jan) : You can't assume Ohio State would of won the Michigan game...
beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered
wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.
wpr (21-Jan) : Oregon and Georgia were locks. Without the luxury of extra playoff berths, Ohios St would have been more focused on Michigan game.
wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : A great game. Give ND credit for coming back, although I am please with the outcome.

beast (21-Jan) : Oh yeah, Georgia starting quarterback season ending elbow injury
beast (21-Jan) : Sadly something happened to Georgia... they should be playing in this game against Ohio State
beast (21-Jan) : I thought Ohio State and Texas were both better than Notre Dame & Penn State
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame getting rolled
Martha Careful (21-Jan) : Ohio State just got punched in the gut. Lets see how they respond
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Notre Lame vs the Luckeyes, bleh
Mucky Tundra (21-Jan) : Oh snap!!!
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Even Stevie Wonder can see that.
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : Nah, you see Lions OC leaving to be HC of Bears is directly related to Packers.
