McCarthy = Sherman?

[Patler]

Do you remember that Homlgren advised Chucky (Grunden) not to take the Raiders job when he interviewed for it? And this was a warning from his former coach. Grunden was the Eagles OC at the time under Rhodes.

Now that you mention it, yes.

RBAloha is. Here's his quote from page one: "Should the Packers fail to make the playoffs MM should be terminated. Keep the defensive staff."

ahhh..no that wont happen. I've been critical of him, but actually I like the job he's doing this year. I dont get down completely on him for things like challenges and snap decisions. (he statistically very good on both I believe). He fixed the penalty problem which gives me warm and fuzzy's all over. Still winning games with a injury list that each guy would draw a 1st or 2nd round pick at least in a trade.

Maybe RBAloha meant something entirely different...terminate could also indicate...*gulp*...to kill?

Nah, too big a hole to dig! But if I was Stubby; I'd stay out of Hoboken just to be sure.

Its apparent McCarthy continually gets overly conservative in crucial situations (2qb runs at the goal line) like Sherman (recall the 04 Eagles playoff game).

Both have a .333 playoff winning percentage.

What do you guys think?

Do you have anything you'd like to say?

[Scott Campbell]

How many passes does MM get?

Please provide an example of when the real trend reverses.

The MM apologists are comical.

You still laughing?

[bobblehead]

Don't bother scott, last year at the midpoint we got into a huge argument about the packers finishing 7-1 with rb taking the stance it was "impossible". As we got hotter and hotter rb disappeared. He hates all things TT and MM, and this success has to be killing him...or else he has come around and seen the error of his ways and understands that he jumps to conclusions way to fast. If that is the case I welcome him back.

Only making a point not trying to create a paradigm.

Hopefully I've made mine.

[Freak Out]

Scott you really miss Harlan don't you?

[Packers4Glory]

Hopefully I've made mine.

I don't see your point.

Its the exact same issue a lot of people HAD w/ MM prior to this run.

Harlan never hated on the Packers. So it's not nearly the same.












But yeah, I miss Harlan.

I don't see your point.

The so called "apologists" have long memories.

[Guiness]

Come on Scott, stop taking shots at him. Nothing to be gained from it, no one is going to admit they're wrong, and it's just going to degrade into the name calling this board has only recently (happily) gotten away from. This taunting serves no purpose. I wasn't too happy with MM at the beginning of December either - after the Detroit game, I would guess a lot of people were upset.

Just leave it be, and let's all enjoy the next week.

Personally, I love thread bumps. It makes people accountable for their posts.

PB, I remember reading too that Shell had gone soft - he was trying so hard to be a player's coach that he lost the team. I vaguely remember a story of a player sitting on his helmet during practice, guys taking themselves out of practice sessions, that sort of thing.

If I recall correctly, he might've then tried to toughen up suddenly - the classic mistake, which I think Chilly made - and that was the end for him.

Trying to make sense of anything that goes on at the Raider's facility, aka Neverland Ranch North, will pretty much drive you nuts.

It's like trying to figure out what my ex-wife is thinking at any given time.

A thread bump is fine. Five one line retorts is excessive, no?
