Ted has failed to provide enough talent.Which one is it?So, as to the D, either Mike McCarthy or Ted Thompson has to go

I took a lot of heat for it and I said if the Packers ever won a Super Bowl with him as GM that I would back off.
They won a Super Bowl and I backed off but my edginess has been creeping up since 2013 when we 1st saw the team Thompson has built minus #12.
I have supported McCarthy believing that he was handcuffed by Thompson's personnel decisions.
Now in 2017 minus #12 again I'm seeing the team Thompson built and McCarthy coaches and it ain't pretty.
One Super Bowl Trophy in Rodgers career is indefensible to me but, hey, we make the playoffs nearly every year.

Why would you want to be an assistant coach on a team with Aaron Rodgers and wish to leave?

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

Like the energizer bunny with Duracell batteries...kiddy bitch, kiddy bitch, kiddy bitch, on and on and on.

If GB had a lot of coaching turnover; there’d be kiddy Bitchin’ about that too, right?

Same logic fallacies and support for argument with factual omissions and misrepresentations, which demonstrates cluelessness and/or dishonesty, on and on and on.

BTW, GB coaches are among the most sought after in NFL; here’s some since Mike McCarthy became coach:

[list]
  • [/list] Philbin Hired away HC Miami
  • [list]
  • [/list]Washington hired way to be Raiders’ DB coach
  • [list]
  • [/list]McAdoo Hired away to be Giants’ OC; with eye to HC
  • [list]
  • [/list] Jagodwski hired away to be BC coach
  • [list]
  • [/list] Johnson hired away to be Dallas’ Asst HC/WR coach
  • [list]
  • [/list] Steve Marshall hired away to be Jets’ OL coach
  • [list]
  • [/list] Solari was hired away to be Giants’ OL coach
  • [list]
  • [/list] Clements had offers, one from Bears, and was blocked.
  • [list]
  • [/list] Joel Hilgenberg and Kevin Greene were young studs that would have been hired away [If he didn’t quit/temp leave coaching].

  • If you hire, for example, a young gun DC, if he’s successful you lose him. So Mike hires some guys like Capers and Turgo, whose desire to advance at this stage of their lives has passed.

    And when you hire stud young guns like Bennett, Getsey or McGarigle; you have to keep promoting to keep ‘em. Anyone who thinks guys like NE’s Matt Patricia or Bennett have not gotten offers is a stone cold moron. Of course, eventually they will lose Edger, unless he takes over for Mike.

    By contrast over the same period of time; Belichek has only had 4 guys hired away:
    [list]
  • [/list]Dabol hired way to be Jets to be QB coach
  • [list]
  • [/list]Ferentz hired away to be OL coach at Iowa and is now HC. This guy is another coaching stud. He’ll be a HC one day.
  • [list]
  • [/list]Godsey was hired away to be Texans QB coach
  • [list][*][/list]O’Brien was hired away to be HC at Penn State
