McCarthy Wants Out of Green Bay?

The above will not reveal who but not a stretch he's referring to Mike McCarthy considering he covers the Bears.

Mike McCarthy seemed to be at odds with Ted a few offseasons ago. This makes sense to me.

Working for a guy like Ted wouldn't be something I could do.

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."

I can't envision anyone saying no if that is what he wants. If that is the guys in sure they would let move on. I guess we'll find out whether this is bs or not on black Monday

BAD EMAIL because the address couldn ot be found, or is unable to receive mail.

While grasping at straws here I can see how this could be possible. Mike McCarthy has had his regime exposed after the Aaron Rogers injury and may want to bail while he still merits the big money quality head coaches command. With the clock ticking on Aarons career and a guaranteed 5-6 year big payday contract elsewhere anything is possible. Worse thing that could happen is he gets canned in 2-3 years and collects the big bucks for three years while reading the sunday paper at the Golden Corral Buffet.

Doubt it's McCarthy, that would be career suicide for him and I'm sure he knows it. Don't see a HC/OC willingly leaving a HOF QB with gas in the tank just because he doesn't agree with everything the GM does. I'd lean more towards John Harbaugh who is stuck with a garbage QB for 2 more years after this one that he can't bench because he's costing them over 25m on the cap.

Everything that gets Mike McCarthy and Ted Thompson out of Green Bay make sense to you... it's because you're blind as homers... in that you just want your end result and think everything points to it.

Which issue did Mike McCarthy and Ted Thompson seem to be at odds about?

The Texans Head Coach has reported had problems with their GM and Head Coach.

There have rumors about Sean Payton and the Saints possible breaking up.

Bruce Arians was reported not sure if he wanted to come back to the Cardinals in the 2018 (which Arians claims is false)

Bruce Arians, Chuck Pagano, John Harbaugh and fat ass McCarthy are the only "successful coaches" that are on the hot seat. Is there a difference between "successful and highly successful"? I

2) Do you really think McCarthy is in the hot seat with the Packers? Fans, yes... Packers, probably not.

3) The original post, does not limited it to coaches on the hot seat ... so we can't limit it to just coaches on the hot seat. It just says a successful coach (it doesn't even say head coach) wants out.

Why do you assume so much? I don't consider him a highly successful HC. He has won a lot of games with Rodgers at the helm. It's well documented who I feel is responsible for our "winning".

If you were intellectually honest you would realize that because he's viewed as a highly successful coach by others, doesn't mean that's what he is or more importantly what I believe.

The fact this guy covers the Bears leads me to believe he very well could be talking about MM. He, himself, said he's highly successful. He's been thought to be at odds with Ted. He's been around to the point of staleness. It may not be MM, but he's certainly among the leading candidates.

You're the one assuming, that something negative came up so, you assume it's Mike McCarthy and TT...

If you were intellectually honest you would realize

Because it's saying you either agree with me or you are not being honest, which is red herring BS, as a person can honestly disagree...

(Not calling you a tool, just that comments like that make it seem like that)

Zero2Cool (14m) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

Zero2Cool (31m) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (32m) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (32m) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (33m) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (36m) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (37m) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (37m) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (38m) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (39m) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (42m) : I literally just said it.

packerfanoutwest (46m) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't

Zero2Cool (47m) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.

Zero2Cool (48m) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.

packerfanoutwest (57m) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what

Zero2Cool (1h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.

packerfanoutwest (1h) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in

packerfanoutwest (1h) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker

packerfanoutwest (1h) : if bucs win out they win their division

beast (1h) : Fine, Buccaneers and Falcons can get ahead of us

packerfanoutwest (1h) : falcons are already ahead of us

beast (1h) : Packers will get in

beast (1h) : If Packers lose the rest of their games and Falcons win the rest of theirs, they could pass us... but not gonna happen

packerfanoutwest (1h) : they still are in the playoffs

packerfanoutwest (1h) : If Packers lose the remaining games,,,,at 10-7

Zero2Cool (3h) : We can say it. We don't play.

Mucky Tundra (4h) : But to say they are in is looking past the Saints

Mucky Tundra (4h) : That said, their odds are very favorable with a >99% chance of making the playoffs entering this week's games

Mucky Tundra (4h) : Packers are not in and have not clinched a playoff spot.

buckeyepackfan (5h) : Packers are in, they need to keep winning to improve their seed#.

Mucky Tundra (14h) : Getting help would have been nice, but helping ourselves should always be the plan

beast (14h) : Too bad Seahawks couldn't beat Vikings

bboystyle (14h) : We just need to win Monday night and were in

Mucky Tundra (17h) : Or ties, but let's be real here

Mucky Tundra (17h) : Other scenario was Falcons+Rams losses

Mucky Tundra (17h) : Needed a Falcons loss for a Seahawk loss to clinch

buckeyepackfan (18h) : Am I wring in saying if Tge Vikings beat The Seahawks, The Packers clinch?

Mucky Tundra (21-Dec) : Agreed; you stinks

Zero2Cool (21-Dec) : I'm not beating anyone. I stinks.

Mucky Tundra (21-Dec) : rough injury for tank dell. guy can't catch abreak

beast (21-Dec) : So far the college playoffs have sucked... One team absolutely dominates the other

beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)

Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (21-Dec) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs

packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

beast (21-Dec) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating

Zero2Cool (20-Dec) : There is a rule that if your name starts with 'b' you lose 15 points. Hey, I don't make the rules, I just enforce them!

wpr (20-Dec) : and then there is Beast. Running away with it all.
