Mike McCarthy is no longer the Green Bay Packers Head Coach. I believe most fans would have been fine (if not wanted/demanded) this outcome after the 2014 season.

I was one of them that after 2014, I felt McCarthy was a good coach, just needed a new start. And that the Packers also needed that new start too. I thought the same about Andy Reid and the Eagles too. I would put Mike Tomlin in that category as well, and to a lesser degree, even John Harbaugh.

I'm thankful for McCarthy though.
I got to see Charles Woodson win a Super Bowl wearing a Packers uniform.
I got to see Brett Favre turn into a better QB under McCarthy.
I got to see Aaron Rodgers develop into a potential Hall of Fame QB.
I got to see two playoff games with my daughters and father.

I'm very thankful for everything McCarthy has done for the Packers and I hope the best for him.

He's one helluva classy guy. He took the high road after being let go. You'll read more about it later (I hope).

Thanks for the playoff victories vs the Cowboys! Loved watching the Cowboys dreams die like they did. And the 2013 comeback victory with Flynn at the helm.

Good post. In my opinion, Mike McCarthy deserves credit for facilitating the success the Packers have had with him on the staff over the past two decades.

He probably should have moved on after the NFC championship game loss against the Seahawks but here we are.

Anyways, thank you Mike. I think you tried your best to make Green Bay the best team you could.

He really has just the one limitation, imo. Understanding sports psychology. Perhaps he will learn from his experience. Other than that, he's an all time great coach.

He never threw his players under the bus, was good Packer people, and if not for PLAYERS making the choice to kneel after a pick or bumble an onside kick, he would have led the team to 2 Super Bowls.

The heat is turning up on Aaron “Burt” Rodgers. He’s running out of scapegoats.

This is the class I was referring to.

Also, Jay reported many NFL coaches called and texted him saying Packers should have waited until end of season.

I'm thankful for his time with the Packers. But it's time to move on. I hope both parties find success in their new journeys.

Only packers game I have attended in green bay was December 9 2007 when they blasted the raiders. I went to that game after traveling from Canada, British Columbia specifically. So thanks, mike, for having the team up and ready for the raiders that day and not ruining my trip. And also 2011.

beast (8-Jan) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.
beast (8-Jan) : 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 (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty
beast (8-Jan) : Cowboys denied Bears request

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
