I agree. Those rants to the media tend to be desperation moves by coaches of teams who are not doing well.

One thing about McCarthy, that drives me nuts, is that he never shows the fire I want to see from the HC. Has he ever gotten in the face of a player that messed up? We know there have been many chances. I can't recall a time. His press conferences are all watered down, politically correct nonsense. Once i would like him to show a little emotion. Seeing him come out with a "Playoffs, did you say playoffs" or "They are who we thought they were" type remark that actually shows he might give a shit.

It is not his style to berate a player in the media....

Why don't people understand that?

Question....Last few SB participants coaches how many of them have you seen attack their players in the media?

I do not know of any times it has happened..

Example would have been Sunday, when they pulled Bush because of his second false start. Would have like to see Mike McCarthy go up to him and give him a quick piece of his mind. Doesn't have to berate, but say something.

As for a presser quote, something that doesn't seem like a prepared watered down Crash Davis PC comment. Or at a minimum, alteast say the PC crap with a little emotion.

It really is interesting to read Mike McCathy's press conferences, because for the most part, they are unintelligible. His sentences truly say nothing -- they must be painful just to transcribe. Personally, I don't even see a reason for these little events, since we learn less than nothing from them anyway.

I personally think there are FAR too many of these press conferences. Let the man coach. He must waste 2 hours during each of these days preparing/giving press conferences. And they're useless.

Sigh...

That isnt his style..How hard is it really to understand he will not do it..

Only reason people want to see it is because then they know for a fact he is getting mad at his players....

Voyeurism

Holmgren did it, and he embarrassed himself if you asked me..

Watch the miked up video, and you will see his emotions coming out...Or maybe even that isn't good enough..

I know he won't do it, which is one of the reasons I don't like him.

Watching the vid makes it worse. Rodgers gets sacked and he says to himself "Unbelievable" the next time, mumbles to himself again and waves the punt team out.

I was raised with coaches that got in my face when I messed up. Some more than others, but they all did it. It is what I like to see from a coach.

You're right Packfan, we should go out and get Denny Green or Herm Edwards. That'd put us on top.

Sorry, but I call this a BS shallow reason for not liking a coach.

William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

I just think that given our severely limited vantage point, it's difficult to gauge the impact of the coaching style in question. I'm sure that showing more emotion or getting in players' faces has been shown to be effective. That said, we're not talking about high school players here -- these are pros. Best way to shake guys up is to demonstrate how accountability works. The more I think about it, the Rouse cut is a positive.

And switching gears here, but a close friend of mine who worships the Colts (and thus knows a fair amount about them) had only good things to say about Giordano.

Whether it is deserved or not, there are some rumblings about Mike McCarthy effectiveness as a coach due to the performance of the team during the first two games.

The fans and media have expectations about GB's performance and the last two games have fallen short of those.

I still like Mike McCarthy as a coach and was impressed with what I saw during the miked up video but I want to see this team dramatically improve against the Rams.

Zero2Cool (58m) : Merry Christmas!

beast (9h) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁

beast (17h) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game

packerfanoutwest (22h) : both games Watson missed, Packers won

Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier

buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol

Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???

Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th

beast (23-Dec) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (23-Dec) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (23-Dec) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (23-Dec) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (23-Dec) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (23-Dec) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (23-Dec) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (23-Dec) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread
