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."

They won't let him be a lame duck next year. He either gets fired this year or is extended before FA.

He very well could fall into the Mike Sherman zone next season. All depends on Ted or what the org forces upon Ted.

If Ted retires, I think it's a pretty safe bet Mike McCarthy is gone as new GM even if Eliot or Brian or John Dorsey is going to want his own guy.

Much more palatable to get rid of a guy with one year remaining on his deal.

It appears we may be close, very close, to regime change. I have awaited this day...

This is Green Bay.

Mike McCarthy could go 2-8 without ARod and still get and get an extension from the Packers.

The real question is whether Ted Thompson is going to still be dazzling us all with his unparalleled drafting for another decade or so.

More of the same to be expected for the foreseeable future.

The built in excuse is already there. The win loss record will be mentioned as well as all the injuries including that of our superstar QB.

Would a coach witnessing what we are without Aaron Rodgers really want to come here? I have mentioned I would love to see Jon Gruden come back to coaching to coach us. Bill Cowher would be pretty sweet as well.

Then I wonder if a defensive minded HC is what we need as it seems the offense seems to manage itself with Aaron doing all the heavy lifting and perhaps the focus needs to be on D.

If there was a new head coach, I'm guessing it's someone that has actually coached recently.

I don't think we're going to see a change unless the new GM (when Thompson steps down in 2019) wants a change. But if I was looking right now, I'd be looking about Andy Reid and the Eagles. Reid because he always seem to get more out of his offense than I think is there, and I think he's passed his knowledge to Doug Peterson... and so would be sniffing around their staffs.

Eagles defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz, should of gotten the head coaching job with the Bills when their head coach made the power move that failed, and he stepped down. Schwartz should of got it, because he got his defensive to fully by into the system and they had a dominant 4-3 defensive (with no offense)... and they stupid decided to go to Rex Ryan and his 3-4 which was completely different. But Schwartz has moved to the Eagles and made their defense better pretty quickly too. I don't fully on offense though.

Eagles offensive coordinator Frank Reich, as a player, parts of the biggest comebacks in college and pro history (at the time), I believe he went to a couple Super Bowls (though he lost them all) and he's coaches Peyton Manning, Phillip Rivers and now a young Carson Wentz. So he's been around a lot of good offensives.

Then again, if Ted retires, a new coach might very well want his own guy.

As most of you discuss how ALL your Christmas wishes may be coming true, nobody is considering the most important player.

Why would Aaron Rodgers want to stay in Green Bay ?

Everyone knows he is grossly underpaid and everyone just assumed he would sign an extension making him the highest paid player.

CIRCUMSTANCES HAVE CHANGED!
in the fans eyes anyway.

Why would/should Aaron Rodgers sign in Green Bay if Mark Murphy decides to "blow this whole thing up"?

Ted, Mike and his staff are all tied together.

One goes most likely they all go.

I'm betting a team such as The 49rs would gladly make Aaron Rodgers a very happy man.

Just be careful what you ask for.

You may get more than you expected.

Aaron Rodgers would party like it's 1999 if they blow it all up. Believed for years he had no respect for MM. You think he'd be sad watching Dom go?

Aaron Rodgers has no reason to want to be in Green Bay. Why would a kid from Cali want to be in Green Bay at all? Does he choose to live in Green Bay year round?

For Aaron's sake, I hope he gets out. I'd hate to see it but for him it would be best. I would bet ANY other org who got him would go balls out to win it all realizing their great fortune of getting him. Do you think any other org would be as ho hum about having the gift of 12? You can thank the maladjusted Ted Thompson for this bizarro world we all have to live in.

I will look at this current downturn in the most positive light. We're close to change! Real change. I do fear Mark Murphy will blow it. Would love to see him voted out.

If Aaron has to go to rid the org of Ted and Mike it's worth it. It wasn't working even with Aaron under this stale regime. Well, working if you're someone who believes the bowl is the goal. No, I don't want to see 12 go. Ted Thompson and both MMs would bring me great joy.

Winners belong in TitleTown not these shoot low status quo flatliners who hide behind Aaron Rodgers.

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
