The expertise of Packerrats!

I'll admit to calling for the heads of Campen (frequently) and Slocum (regularly). I suspect I will in the future too.

I haven't been a fan of Moss (not sure why), and have wondered about Perry and Whitt when we see and hear about the all too frequent "miscommunications" by the DBs.

The SI article by Jim Trotter that caused Zak Gilbert, former Raider PR guy to lose his job reported as straight fact that McKenzie's final two were Dennis Allen and Winston Moss.

McKenzie does not have a history with the guy that I am aware of until McCarthy brings him to GB from New Orleans. So there doesn't seem to be a long term loyalty connection there. Maybe there is something to this guy.

MM can't win close games. The Pack won 19 games in a row but it took until game 18 of that streak to win by 4 or less.

It's still hard to believe that a team can win 19 in a row and a Super Bowl and you have posters here saying it was all luck.

Could be. On the other hand, McKenzie was very open about taking the Raiders job out of a sense of loyalty, and wanting to restore the pride of the Raiders. Moss also played for the Raiders for four years, so McKenzie might have given him "extra credit" for that.

Don't forget that Thompson is clearly an ego-maniac who cannot stand the thought of a player he did not draft succeeding on his team. This explains everything.

There happens to be free agents on the roster.

I still blame Kurt Schottenheimer.

And for the record, let me repeat that I am only ever in favor of firing Slocum - or any coach for that matter - after a bad play or a bad game. When the Packers win, I am not calling for people's heads.

It's all Bob Sanders fault. While we're at it, it's Donatell's fault for 4th and 26.
It's the beer vendor's fault in Section 11. It's Raji's fault for being drafted in the Top 10.
God, what a terrible team. We barely beat Jacksonville! If they sign Tebow, we're doomed and it will be TT's fault.
This season, it will be Pope Francis' fault for giving up the St. Vince side-gig.

Now, this is a perspective builder if I ever saw one.

Great thread.

It is clear to me that there are two or three extremely vocal negative Packer fans in this forum.

I, on the other hand, am an optimist regarding the upcoming season.

It would not surprise me one bit if this team handily wins the super bowl. Obviously the odds are stacked against any one team in any given season, but I think with a touch of luck, we have all the tools of a champion. All it takes is a little late momentum combined with some of the proper blue-chip players.

Keep taking those anti anxiety meds.
