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 MM 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

    packerfanoutwest (3h) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.
    Zero2Cool (3h) : It's a poor design. New site has SignalR like our gameday chat
    wpr (4h) : Ah today's Shout was very quick to post.
    wpr (4h) : now 3
    Zero2Cool (5h) : Who? What?
    beast (13h) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?
    Martha Careful (18h) : meh
    Zero2Cool (22h) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026
    Zero2Cool (22h) : It's so awesome.
    Zero2Cool (22h) : new site fan shout post fast
    wpr (21-Apr) : Slow posting in Fan shout.
    wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4
    wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4
    Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!
    dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am
    wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days
    beast (18-Apr) : 6 days
    wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
    Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
    dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
    Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
    Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
    Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
    Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
    dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
    dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
    Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
    dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
    dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
    Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
    dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
    Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
    Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
