I really don't think Ted Thompson is the problem. Mike McCarthy can't motivate his guys to move their play up, and stop making penalties. Mike McCarthy needs to be shown the door, along with the special teams coach and O-line coach.
There's alot of talent on the team, but no one seems to know what they are doing. Ted Thompson can pick the guys, but they have to be able to play well together. And thats not happening right now.

TO HELL WITH TED THOMPSON!!!!!! Ultimately he is the one responsible for this whole mess!!!

He Hired MM, who hired his guys to coach, or kept the ones he wanted to.

Ted Thompson has had 5 years to bring in THE PLAYERS HE WANTED!!!!

It's real simple, either TT's players aren't good enough or Mike McCarthy can't coach them?

Either way, it doesn't matter..IT IS TIME FOR THEM BOTH TO GO!!!!

I backed off my rants after last week after seeing who we lost to and how close the games were, but Sunday pretty much showed what this team is, MEDIOCRE AT BEST!!!!!

While thery are at it, they might as well get rid of that red-headed clown who thinks he knows what he is doing.(Teddy's Boss)

CLEAN HOUSE, IMHO there is plenty of talent on this team, get someone in here who can develope that talent, use the next 8 weeks to build for 2010!!!!

Can we please stop putting any blame on rodgers? We put up 28 points!!!!
Maybe if we did not give teams great field position, teams like Tampa would not put up 38 points....

True. Most of the problem was with special teams. You give the other team the ball on inside your own 20, you arn't going to win very often. Plus a D that once again, when their backs are against the wall, they can't deliver.

The throw to Jennings that was intercepted was on Jennings in my opinion. Yes, there were 3 defenders there, but the ball went right through his hands. He catches it, it's a TD for us or at least inside their 5. Instead, it's intercepted. Aaron Rodgers put the ball right where it had to be, and GJ blew it.
I hate to even say this, but he hasn't impressed me this year.
What has happened to him? Is he hurt, and not telling anyone? I just don't know.

I agree. I think it's mostly on mm. Yes, Ted has made some mistakes, all GM's do. I think his good outweighs his bad. Mike McCarthy I jus have had it with him.

Not to be argumentative, but if there's plenty of talent why would they can the guy who got that talent? I know he hired McCarthy, who's not getting it done, but that happens to even the best front office guys.

Full disclosure: I wouldn't be upset if Thompson did get replaced, as long as it was with someone who's proven they can do better, but firing him just because his first head coach hire didn't pan out seems a bit extreme to me.

Firing McCarthy: you betcha. Firing Thompson: maybe, but only if the new GM is demonstrably better. Change for change's sake in that position doesn't make sense.

Who would be available that fits that bill? I'm asking, because I don't know of anyone.

I 100 percent agree that Thompson gave us talent. Look at what hes done. We have Jennings, Jones, Nelson, Driver was resigned, He signed woodson, resigned Harriss, We have Great D-line players, Our linebackers are beast, He signed Bigby, Grant, and FInely was a great pick. Its obvious our players have talent, and thompson found many gems in the draft. Its frikin Mike Mccarthy and the rest of his staff. Woodson even Criticized our d scheme!

Vent... I have a laundry list of things I would love to vent about.. but I will just put down one.
Mike McCarthy and his circle jerk of a weekly presser of word and little action to correct the repetitive issues has zapped my excitement for this seasons team... I wanna believe he can right the ship, but I have zero confidence in his ability to do so.

Again.. I think he is a smart man.. but can't seem to objectively look at the shortcomings of this team and make the proper adjustment... IE.. Campen is a first time position coach and is failing... yet can't see it or to loyal to make the necessary change to remedy the shortcomings.

Oh and Raji not being in camp on time hasn't hurt his performance? BullllllllllllllShiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitttttttttttttttt!

I can take the losses, the horrible line play, terrible punting, terrible coverage teams, quarterback getting beaten like red heade step child; but seeing you wearing a Viking helmut with braids holding Bill Bellichek wearing a dress is the last fricken straw for me. Exactly what were you thinking taking that bet? And how long do we all have to suffer with this?

Mucky Tundra (3h) : The Seattle Seahawks defeat the Chicago Bears 6-3. Jason Myers had 6 RBIs for Seattle while Cairo Santos had 3 RBI for Chicago

beast (4h) : Not nessarily, he might of been injured either way. He's playing about 50% of the games the last 4 years

Zero2Cool (10h) : If they'd been more patient with him, he'd be back already. Putting him out there vs Bears caused him to tweak it and here we are.

packerfanoutwest (11h) : well this is his last season with the PAck, book it

beast (12h) : Sounds like no Alexander (again), I'm wondering if his time with the Packers is done

Zero2Cool (18h) : Could ban beast and I still don't think anyone catches him.

Mucky Tundra (26-Dec) : Houston getting dog walked by Baltimore

packerfanoutwest (25-Dec) : Feliz Navidad!

Zero2Cool (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas!

beast (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁

beast (24-Dec) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : both games Watson missed, Packers won

Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???

Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th

beast (23-Dec) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (23-Dec) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th
