I always thought they brought Bennett up to fast and into a role he was not ready for. I thought he did a good job with the WRs then to be made OC when no one really knew what the OCs responsibilities were.

Gonna be tough to come back with a reassignment (read demotion) but he may catch on somewhere else.

I think part of what held GB back a bit was their loyalty to their own and those with ties to the team. I get that those are the guys you know best but it eliminates a lot of potential candidates. Kind of like the talk about bringing back Philbin and McAdoo. They couldn't cut it at the next level which is no indicator that they can't be successful in a lesser role but are they being considered simply because they know the system and if that is the case how much will really change.

Edgar might be coming back. Alex choose to leave.

"Edgar's situation is still fluid. We're still in communication there. Alex Van Pelt was more a personal choice from a contractual standpoint. He desired to be a free agent after this season, so this is really a product of last year's negotiation. He wants to look at other opportunities," Mike McCarthy told WTMJ.

Alex should have been OC when they promoted Bennett.

Bennett should have served as QB coach. Learn the position, then be OC.

This is arguably the second round of coordinators and assistants Mike McCarthy has run through, so if the team fails to make it over the hump with the new leadership platoon, McCarthy is the one who has to take the fall, surely? I have to think his leash is just that much shorter starting this season.

As Cobb was about the same level talent the day he showed up, he just needed to learn the system. I think Adams has grown, but it's hard to tell how much, as the 1st year he didn't know the system 2nd year his ankle was badly banged up, 4th year he didn't have Rodgers... so every year has been a big difference.

Zero2Cool (1h) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. 🤷 Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.
Zero2Cool (1h) : HUMP DAY
beast (1h) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast
beast (1h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?
Zero2Cool (1h) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.
Zero2Cool (1h) : I could be wrong there though
Zero2Cool (1h) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

beast (3h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.
beast (3h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty
Mucky Tundra (15h) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty
beast (17h) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact
Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy
Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)
Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games
