I have, as you know, been happy to support MM, because, quite honestly, he has deserved it thus far. This offensive offense sits squarely on his shoulders, and he looks clueless in how do correct it.

Rodgers is regressing, and once again hanging on to the ball too long. The OL cannot be trusted when it matters....if at all. Our WRs seem to be having a group sulk and running lazy routes. And the coaches seem to be running this show playing not to lose instead of going for the win. There is no killers instinct, and a sense of methodical sloth at moments when urgency would seem to be the desired mindset. Add to that the fact that Slocum is still employed as overseer of our special teams....and well, is does not look good.

We can hope that some people get healthy and this team reips off a few wins to limp into the playoffs, but I now believ e that if Mike McCarthy cannot get his VERY talented offense to live up to their potential, that should he further resist change at key coaching positions, his time in Green Bay must now be viewed more critically.

I'm not sure how you can differentiate between playing to win and playing not to lose, but your general point I totally agree with.

Frankly, the offense as a whole is regressing. Most concerning is that our prize QB is regressing.

That is a glaring problem, one that has to fall squarely on the shoulders of McCarthy.

I mean body language, the sharpness and crispness of routes, velocity and certainty of throws...this team displays none of this. They play like they are waiting for the boot to drop....and then allow it. Again...defense is diluted seriously. But our offense is still loaded...and terribly underwhelming.

I guess he must be counting next week's loss to the Vikings in there already.

Indicative of mental state of many fans. Giving up on the Pack 6 games in when they are really 3-3.
I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.

My problems are.

Shotgun - When you have an Oline struggling, the shotgun is more difficult because the defense gets a better jump. Get under C, use the snap count to slow the pass rush.

Running game - to predictable. How many times does McCarthy expect Jackson to make positive yards from a Shotgun delay draw? Get under center, with a back and make the defense worry about a run game to slow the pass rush.

Confidence. Remember back to Holmgren and Favre. Mike would call early plays designed to get Brett comfortable and settle in. McCarthy needs to do that with Rodgers and doesn't.

What would you guys think if we gave Joe Philbin an opportunity to call plays? Or get an offensive coordinator that does call plays?

I'm not saying that I want this (and I don't), but I'm just putting it out there to see what some of you would think of it.

I mean, what purpose does Philbin serve right now? Does he even do anything? I guess he helps Mike McCarthy make the plays?

I would be for it. If I remember correct, when McCarthy was coaching the probowl team he had Philbin call the plays for that. And if I remember right, he ran the piss out of Peterson.

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
