Maybe they are not firing Moss yet because he is in the interview process for a HC position.

So if you're Thompson, I don't think you can simply promote from w/in - and that doesn't mean Moss can't get the job done, it just means that if only for PR reasons you really need to clean house and effect some big change on the defensive side of the ball.

It isn't Ted's call.. Mike McCarthy made the firing call and he will replace him with his pick, Ted might need to okay the choice.. but Mike McCarthy will have the keys IMO.

True, apologies for the mis-speak/type. In either case, I'm of the opinion that a promotion from w/in for a defense that's underperformed isn't the right way to go this off-season.

Now all we need is Jags to go ahead with the Jets HC interview, thereby getting fired by BC, not get hired by the Jets, and end up back as OC for Green Bay.

And wasn't Al Harris a huge fan of Lionel Washington, or is my memory playing tricks on me? I wonder if that affects his future here...

No apologizes needed.. I agree with your thought.. new view upon the defense may be needed.. and yes we disagree in principle with regards to the backers and their performance.. but squared up on this thought.

The more I think about this opening..the more I hope Timmy Lewis gets a shot at the DC here.. it won't be a long stay as he as well wants to move to a HC.. and if he would turn this D around.. would short track his way to a position.. but that is one smart cookie there.. shame his playing career ended the way it did.. but highly intelligent player and person.

I don't like the Washington move, at all - our CBs were damn near the only ones out there performing this year. Hopefully whoever gets the DC job will bring him back.

Here is the thing.. Lionel has been passed over time and time again for promotion within the Packers organization.. and if this holds true.. then he has now been released.. would you come back to the team?

Good question. Would I? Nope, I sure would not.

I hope so to.. he would either have to have very thick skin or have something in place with the Packers on a return with a greater role.. maybe the entire secondary?

I'm betting that's what will happen if Moss gets the DC job.

I'm not enamored wit Moss but I think he has a better than 50-50 chance of being MMs choice, especially if he doesn't land a HC job this week.

It has been officially announced on Packers.com

One new note.. Rock was let go.. not a surprise with the number of injuries on this club.

The Green Bay Packers have released six assistant coaches, Head Coach Mike McCarthy announced Monday morning. Those released are Defensive Coordinator Bob Sanders, Defensive Ends Coach Carl Hairston, Defensive Tackles Coach Robert Nunn, Secondary Coach Kurt Schottenheimer, Defensive Nickel Package/Cornerbacks Coach Lionel Washington and Strength & Conditioning Coordinator Rock Gullickson.

"These are difficult decisions," McCarthy said. "I hold each of these men in high regard on a personal level, and I want thank them for their service to the Green Bay Packers."

Zero2Cool (1m) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. 🤷 Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.

Zero2Cool (2m) : HUMP DAY

beast (15m) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast

beast (15m) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (20m) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (22m) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (22m) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (24m) : I guess I see players in Packers Hall come way later

beast (26m) : Yeah, usually teams hall of fames are a much lower bar than the NFL

Zero2Cool (28m) : is it uncommon for Hall before Ring?

beast (2h) : I missed it, sorry, but he got into the NFL Hall of Fame years before that

Zero2Cool (2h) : Jones took his sweet ole time!

Zero2Cool (2h) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there

Zero2Cool (2h) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (2h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (2h) : 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 (14h) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (16h) : 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

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : The winners page that is

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I was not hoping for that. It messes up the page lol

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3.

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : congrats beast on 2024 !

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : congrats porky on winning 2023 pick'em! (oops sorry)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : That might be it for the Vikings

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Oh so the refs do know what intentional grounding is

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I'm hoping for BLOODBATH. Pummel one another.

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : 8 people in pick'em would have won any year with their total lol
