Made me laugh when I read this, nerdmann...if we didn't have 🇲🇲 holding us back, why, we could be 5-0 right now...

I agree with the comments above. MM's offense has done a terrific job of keeping the defenses off-balance this year. He appears to be more aggressive toward the end of the games. The dealing with injuries (Bulaga, Clifton, etc) and having the replacements ready to go, even in positions that aren't their primary (Sherrod at RT?). Says a lot about the coaching staff AND the players themselves.

Everyone is spot on about his aggressiveness, going for the throat, etc.

However, I've also been impressed by his ability to adjust. Last night was a good example with the Clifton injury so he utilized the TEs for more protection and quick screens/slants. Then as he saw Sherrod was holding his own he switched back to 4 and 5 wr sets which was when we saw the big gain to James Jones and the offense really open up.

When Cliffy first came out, our OL fell to ****. Then 🇲🇲 did some magic and suddenly 🇦🇷 was upright again. Credit there goes to 🇲🇲. We wouldn't have won this game with a lesser coach who couldn't make the necessary adjustments.

From Vic Ketchman's Ask Vic  on Packers.com --

As a fan, I never like seeing my Packers down in a game, and luckily for me I haven't had to deal with that much for the past year or so. With that being said, do comeback victories help rally a team moreso than a blowout win?

I think you know the answer to that question. Adversity tests a team’s mettle. Chuck Noll liked to say it fires the steel. I’ve heard other coaches say adversity galvanizes a team. It tests its unity, its bond. Is there any quit in anybody? Who shall lead us through this storm? The Packers have a few major personalities, Aaron Rodgers and Charles Woodson immediately come to mind, that are so accomplished and esteemed at their craft that they engender in their teammates calm and confidence that if they just focus on doing their job, Rodgers and Woodson will lead the team to safe harbor. It’s a wonderful feeling. Strong families have that feeling; they believe in their mothers and fathers. Mike McCarthy is a real family man and he has a noticeable pride for overcoming adversity. He revels in it. He loves to talk about it in press conferences. Maybe even moreso than from Rodgers and Woodson, the Packers draw their calm and confidence from their coach. I think we need to start considering that possibility.



I enjoyed this perspective and thought y'all would as well.
William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

Which is great, when it works out. Of course, if the plays don't go your way and you end up losing anyway, despite your herculean effort to overcome the deficit, it is cold comfort that your mettle was tested.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
