How Hot Is Mike McCarthy's Seat?· Page 2

I can see his seat getting hot if the team starts off really bad this year. That could cause a change.
If they start out looking great, he will be safe for the season, at least.

Imo, Mike created Aaron. However I also believe the loyalty on Aaron's part has waned, rightly or wrongly after the 2014 playoff meltdown.

Regardless of what everyone knows about McCarthy developing Rodgers, it doesn't give him a free pass forever when the team continuously fails to punch teams in the mouth and secure victories in the post-season.

This team shit itself bad last year.

Mike has to prove that was a fluke or blame it on Jordy. He needs to prove that it's fixed.

I would not be surprised if the seat is very hot under Mike McCarthy. He's been with the same team for a decade and sometimes your mantra falls on deaf ears and what is best is a new bark from a new dog.

The Pittsburgh Penguins and Cleveland Cavaliers both fired their coaches mid-season and won their respective league championships. Denver Broncos made a head coaching change and won the Super Bowl the following year. Baltimore Ravens fired their offensive coordinator mid-season and won the Super Bowl that same season.

There are way too many scapegoats still in place for MM to go anywhere. We saw that last year when Tom Clements had to give up playcalling duties.

Of course, it isn't all McCarthy's fault but it is disappointing that with over 20 years of HOF QBs we have only 2 SBs to show for it.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

I think there are maybe 5-7 coaches with more job security in the NFL than McCarthy. Unless the team completely self destructs this year he'll be brought back for another season without a doubt.
