"2016 Confidants" was theme to season, MM says. Had countdown each week to the number of days to the Super Bowl.
I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT CONFIDANTS MEANS IN THIS CONTEXT

McCarthy on the Super Bowl: "That's the ultimate goal and we fell short."
Green Bay Packers @packers 15m15 minutes ago
McCarthy: We reached a very high level of success this season...but we did not reach the ultimate goal of winning the Super Bowl.
Jason Wilde @jasonjwilde 16m16 minutes ago
"I would say our team had a successful season without a doubt. I don't know why we're even questioning that." But did not reach @SuperBowl.

Offense overcame injuries. Defense couldn't do the same with limitations at cornerback.
Michael Cohen @Michael_Cohen13 15m15 minutes ago
McCarthy said he considers pass rushers and corners the two primary positions on defense. #Packers clearly lacked the latter this season.
I GOT NEWS FOR YOU, YOU LACKED THE FORMER AS WELL
Michael Cohen @Michael_Cohen13 15m15 minutes ago
McCarthy said he spoke with Ty Montgomery during his exit interview. Montgomery is a running back. He will change his number. #Packers
Packer Report @PackerReport 15m15 minutes ago
Montgomery is a running back and will change his number. Will flex out and play WR but he will be "on the depth chart as a running back."

More MM on corners: Randall and Rollins did lot of good things as rookies. Expected them to take Year 2 jump but "multiple injuries" slowed.
Michael Cohen @Michael_Cohen13 14m14 minutes ago
McCarthy said the history of players making jumps from first to second seasons influences roster building. Injuries slowed Randall/Rollins.
I WOULD CUT EXPECTATIONS ABOUT THIS JUMP BY 50% IMMEDIATELY
Packer Report @PackerReport 14m14 minutes ago
MM remains confident that Randall and Rollins will develop into quality players. Will work out together in Cali. in offseason.
Michael Cohen @Michael_Cohen13 14m14 minutes ago
Sam Shields has still not cleared the concussion protocol, according to McCarthy. "He needs to get healthy for him and his family." #Packers
Packer Report @PackerReport 13m13 minutes ago
MM would "love to see Eddie (Lacy) back." He'll be a free agent and isn't healthy yet.
Michael Cohen @Michael_Cohen13 12m12 minutes ago
McCarthy said he hasn't entered the evaluation process of his coaching staff yet. "I feel really good about the job our coaching staff did."
