I like how people are calling for McCarthy's head, but the only other coach people are mentioning are Bill Belichick.

We're not gonna get Bill Belichick, guys.

We're not gonna get Bill Cowher either.

Nope, not Bruce Arians.

So do, pray tell, who the hell that's available that's better than Mike McCarthy right now.

There are former head coaches and coordinators who teamed up with Rodgers would likely have success they didn't before. Sam Bradford looks like a new person with his change of team and coach.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Well I don't see McCarthy making a whole lot of changes because they were beaten badly by Dallas. Four turnovers and umpteen chances to make plays to stay in that game won't shake his tree too much IMO. Arod has gone thru stretches where he has played poorly before and bounced back. I saw a graph on ESPN where I believe it compared 2010 or '13 to this year after 5 games and Arod's numbers were essentially the same and he went on to have a very good year. I believe McCarthy will take the position that AR is too good to stay this bad for much longer.

I can see MM tweaking some things but no major changes. If I am him I look at what is going well and take advantage of it. Offensively, one thing going well is the pass protection. If I'm seeing the Oline holding up like it has in pass pro I'm trotting Davis and Montgomery out there and running some longer developing crossing patterns, etc, and letting that speed and athleticism become an advantage vs. watching Arod bouncing around out there after 2.5 seconds because the routes called for the ball to come out earlier and seldom take advantage of the extra second or second and a half he's been given.

What a waste at least for me to watch Arod standing back there with a receiver on the right sideline, another on the left, both essentially standing there, when they had enough time to cross to that point from the opposite field. You can't tell me if they keep four guys moving somebody won't be open after 3 to 3.5 seconds. We don't make the D pay somehow for that extra time and it just aggravates the hell out of me.

I'd be precisely half as worried about ARod as I am now if he hadn't stunk it up for half of last season too. This isn't a 2016 problem. This is a 2015-16 problem which is very alarming.

Thursday night will likely set the tone for the remainder of the season. If having their pants pulled down around their ankles by a pair of rookies in their house doesn't make them want to play better, nothing probably will.

While I have been highly critical of the mediocre (and sometimes bad) offensive performances - there is enough time to turn this season around, but not without major change and fast.

From the stands.. it looks like he has lost this team. As bluntly as I can say it.

Hell.. Rodgers looked alone on an island much of the time... not approaching anyone... but more importantly.. very few approaching him.

The offensive line to me was the most telling... back to Sitton and company years back, that was the loose group... that group now looks like the walking dead on the sidelines. Little discussion... blank stares and motionless much of the time. Beat down.

Part of football is being loose, having fun... that sideline is anything but.

And that was not just after they got down in the game.. that was even evident in the pregame.

Just a job... going through the motions.
