The Head Coach Search· Page 2

Found it.

"If the Packers do hire McDaniels, it would make things interesting. And according to reports, Patriots offensive coordinator is the leading candidate to win the job. Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated was on FS1's the "Herd with Colin Cowherd" recently and he was asked who is the leading candidate to be the next head coach for the Packers. Breer said he continues to hear Josh McDaniels be the guy because he could come in and work with Aaron Rodgers, which is something the Packers need in order to move forward.

"That would make some sense because they need somebody who can come in there and coach Aaron Rodgers," Breer said to Cowherd. "I know that sounds simple because he's such a great player, but it's actually kind of complicated. How do you challenge a guy like that? How do you come in and make him better on a day-to-day basis?"

"There aren't very many people on the planet who have experience doing that with that sort of player. Josh McDaniels actually does.""

So I guess find out how recently Albert Breer said that to see whether his comments were early on in the search or just in the last few days. Could just be initial thoughts.

It's been idiotic fans saying Rodgers is sabotaging. Finally proven wrong today. Breer has much closer sources than the fan base. Yes, your point is still valid.

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

On a related note, Kizer was McCarthy's boy. Now that McCarthy is no longer in Green Bay, what are the odds that Kizer actually makes the roster next season?

The front office was very high on kizer and nearly drafted him instead of king. I'm assuming McCarthy talked them out of it. Similarly, most of that front office is gone too. I'd be surprised if he doesn't make it. Hasn't had a chance yet and his contract is guaranteed.

Really glad to read this and hope (and have no reason to not believe it to be true) it is true. And I still think Mark is grooming Brian for a larger role down the road. Similar to what Ted Thompson ended with.

And if no outside help, then my question is why did he hire outside help (Jed Hughes) for the GM search , but not the head coaching search? If GM scouting is harder? Or he just didn't think Hughes was helpful... or if he just wants someone to work with and he already has that in Gute?

Rumor has it, that Gute was very high on Kizer as well... also IMO Kizer looked better as a rookie, then preseason with the Packers because they screwed with his footwork which Mike McCarthy said was on the completely opposite side of the family compared to the way they teach it. If Kizer gets his footwork down, and keeps improving, I think he can be a hell lot better than what we saw in training camp (heck he was better as a rookie).

Damn. Kizer is just gonna be turning 23 next month. He's younger than I guessed.

Let me throw this guy out

Cliff Kingsberry.
OC USC

Former Texas Tech. HC

Only player to throw for over 5000 yds then coach a qb who threw for over 5000 yds.

Rams almost signed him.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

The Packers are indeed one of the teams that Jay Glazer claims have considered buying Kliff Kingsbury out of his contract and bringing him to the NFL.

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : Even with the context it's ... what?

Mucky Tundra (20-Nov) : Matt LaFleur without context: “I don’t wanna pat you on the butt and you poop in my hand.”

beast (20-Nov) : We brought in a former Packers OL coach to help evaluate OL as a scout

beast (20-Nov) : Jets have been pretty good at picking DL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He landed good players thanks to high draft slot. He isn't good.

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He can shove his knowledge up his ass. He knows nothing.

beast (20-Nov) : More knowledge, just like bring in the Jets head coach

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?

beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : ok so then wht are the totals the same as last week?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : NFL Pick'em is auto updated when NFL Scores tab is clicked

Martha Careful (19-Nov) : The offense was OK. Let's not forget the Bear defense is very very good.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Who updates the leaderboard on NFLPickem?

beast (19-Nov) : Has the Packers offense been worse since the former Jets coach joined the Packers?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Offense gets his ass in gear, this could be good.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Backup QB helped with three wins. Special Teams contributed to three wins.

bboystyle (18-Nov) : Lions played outside thats why. They scored 16 and 17 in the only 2 outside games this year

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : The rest of the NFL is catching up to Packers ... kicking is an issue throughout league

packerfanoutwest (18-Nov) : Packers DL Kenny Clark: We knew 'we were going to block' Bears' game-winning field goal attempt

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Lions seem to be throttling everyone, but only (only) got 24 lol maybe the rain is why

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Packers vs Lions game doesn't seem so bad.

beast (18-Nov) : Dennis Green "They are what we thought they were, and we let them off the hook!"

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : comment of the day Z2Cool "Bears better than we want to admit. Packers worse than we think. It's facts."

Mucky Tundra (17-Nov) : my worst case scenario: Bears fix their oline and get a coach like Johnson from the Lions and his scheme

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.

beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Cheesey (17-Nov) : If the Badgers had a decent QB, they would have won. The guy can't hit a wide open receiver

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline

beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Badgers got hosed vs Oregon

packerfanoutwest (16-Nov) : damn,he hasn't played since week 2
