Lay off of the weed. Mike McCarthy will NEVER coach a team in the superbowl.

He's the best guy out there, seriously. Do your homework.

He was the HC in SF and took the team to the playoffs before TO wrecked his first team. He also had the Lions on track before Willy Clay Ford insisted on Joey Harrington as the starter.

Who in the hell do you think turned Favre into the QB he became?

This begs the question, if Mariucci was such a great coach, why couldn't he develop Harrington as a viable QB? Nobody has it easy in the NFL or real life. Mariucci was fired for a reason.

I read through all the posts...I'm someone who would like MM to be gone after this season..But I have read through the posts..and Ill throw out a name that no one has said so far. Jim Bates. I would love to pull the trigger on that move.

I will expand a little bit more on my pick for Bates. He had a good defense when he was the DC of the Dolphins, when he left their D went down hill. He came to a packer defense that wasn't the greatest and you could see the difference in that defense as soon as he got there. I could see the difference in training camp when I would watch. I thought he squeezed the most out of his players. Who knows how he would do as a HC, he might be able to get the most out of ALL the players. And he may not. But that goes for any DC or OC that you want to bring in. And he lives in Wisconsin. Not that, that matters...Just ironic.

I do remember Bates doing a pretty good job as DC. However, there was some reasons which escape me now, which suggested that he may not have been the best option to be coach at the time. I believe he was somewhat upset at not getting the job and hence left for eleswhere. I don't know if he'd be willing to coach in GB unless it was as a head coach.

I'm just not sold on the Bates System. I'd much rather run a Philly style of Defense. Is there a Jim Johnson Prodigee out there?

Haslett or Nolan would also be solid choices IMHO.

Mike Shanahan anyone? He was fired as Broncos head coach. (Not saying McCarthy should be fired, but this IS what the topic is about)

Well, one thing that can't escape anyone's memory is the fact about 15 teams have shifted gears at HC and he doesn't get a sniff. Let's put it this way. If McCarthy's cut loose another team would have him signed by tomorrow and you know who still WON'T have a HC position? Bates.

I think the whole topic is quite funny myself. A new coach? I hope people here are kidding. That means new Assistant coaches and schemes and everything else.

A new coach now sets this team back at least three years if you consider the time needed to get personnel in here that will fit with a new coaches philosophy.

We were a hair off beating some of the best teams in the league and had a frustrating year so the solution is to can the whole movement and start all over. Beautiful. Dumb, but beautiful.

Must be a lot of blonde lovers here.
