I don't see things getting "fixed" this season.

He says it will be good to have Smith back. I thought the rumor was that Smith was axed because of personal friction between him and McCarthy?

He maybe smart, but he hasn't figured out that getting Rodgers easy completions early make the game much more enjoyable.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Mike McCarthy is smarter than a lot of you guys account him for

Finley - I just wanted to touch on this and this alone.

Mike McCarthy is a smart man. I don't doubt that. Loved him in '07. He made all the right calls, except for one - he failed to take over the D against the Giants. He let his DC be stubborn and not make adjustments. Had I been Mike McCarthy, I would have overruled the DC as the HC has the authority to do that.

Now, Mike McCarthy isn't adjusting. So I'm wondering what happened to the Mike McCarthy I used to love? Is this guy an imposter who looks like Mike McCarthy?

You cannot keep the same game plan if you have key injuries. You also have to change the game plan if it has become clear the other team has found weaknesses in it.

Mike McCarthy used to be good at that. He isn't any more. I can't answer why as I don't know him personally.

Zombie,
I wonder if it is just that bad habits are harder to break than good ones.

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

That comes to stubbornness. The 2010 Mike McCarthy appears to be very stubborn. The '07 model not so much. He was adaptable.

McCarthy adapted last year too. It took several losses for it to happen.

Well, I sincerely hope it doesn't take an injury to Aaron Rodgers for him to adapt in 2010. Mike McCarthy wants to run a type of O that we simply don't have the talent on the OL for. People blame Aaron for turning his back to his receivers by spinning around. Well, Aaron's trying to survive. I'd much rather have an incompletion than an injury to Aaron.

I don't know how it can't be obvious that our OL isn't good enough to have a spread formation with Aaron and shotgun and nobody back there to protect him. The Patriots can do that. We can't.

I hate to say this, but I think old #4 made him look more adaptable than he was.

Heh. Something Nonstopdrivel I think agrees with you strongly on.

Maybe it was Brett overriding MM's playcalling from the line of scrimmage that made Mike McCarthy look good that year. Who knows?

I really want to like MM. His stubbornness though is getting Aaron killed.

Martha Careful (13h) : Why is it that the Rams rookies can contribute right away but our first and second year guys are too young to contribute in a meaningful way

Martha Careful (13h) : Yes, Saquon Barkley had a very nice game. But he has a much better offensive line in front of him. I'll take Josh Jacob's. I love the guy

Martha Careful (11-Jan) : Two terrific NCAA Football Semi-Final Games...We can only hope the Championship game is as good

Zero2Cool (9-Jan) : E. Cooper. Rookie of Month. Defense.

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : @AaronNagler · 2m Both Jordan Love and Malik Willis were Limited participants at Packers practice today.

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. 🤷 Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : HUMP DAY

beast (8-Jan) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast

beast (8-Jan) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : I guess I see players in Packers Hall come way later

beast (8-Jan) : Yeah, usually teams hall of fames are a much lower bar than the NFL

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : is it uncommon for Hall before Ring?

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : S Xavier McKinney named first-team All-Pro by NFLPA

beast (8-Jan) : I missed it, sorry, but he got into the NFL Hall of Fame years before that

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Jones took his sweet ole time!

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there

Zero2Cool (8-Jan) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

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) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game
