    It's time to recognize.
    Recognize Mike McCarthy for what!? Doesn't he already get enough sand pounded up his ass? Mike McCarthy is obviously a very solid Head Coach. He should have a solid winning percentage coaching Brett Favre and now Aaron Rodgers. Two certain HOFers.

    I want to see if he can coach the team to another Super Bowl before I elevate his status to 'One Of The Best'.

    Agreed.

    Btw, McCarthy hasn't done shit in the playoffs since SB 45. Many times he was outcoached.

    How can you tell when someone is "out-coached" as opposed to players not executing?

    One of the questions I've always had is: when is poor execution on the part of the players a reflection of poor coaching? I thinks the two are pretty well intertwined.

    Big-boned Mike is a solid coach and there have been times I've been down right enamored by him. One of the traits which I really like about him is his leadership but there are times when he's a rigid and prone to brain farts.

    The potential is there for him to cement his legacy this season and I hope he does so.

    So, if that's the standard, is anybody other than Belichick and Coughlin "One Of The Best"? They are the only active coaches with more than 1 Lombardi Trophy. There are only 7 active head coaches with a Lombardi Trophy.

    I'm referring to ' One Of The BEST ' ALL TIME NFL Head Coach's.

    Today he would rank as one of the BEST HC's in the NFL. He has an excellent Regular Season winning percentage.

    Mike McCarthy hasn't shown us much since our last Super Bowl in the post season. Please check that out.

    Fair enough. Since the premise of the article was (I believe) that MM is one of the best coaches currently in the NFL, I thought that's what you were questioning. I don't think there is really anyone trying to suggest that he is one of the greatest coaches of all time. Not yet.
