      TT's watching you too red. Here's what he said about not coming to McCarthy's defense this year. http://www.espn.com/blog/green-bay-p...at-of-a-season

      “Why interject something that’s not in the minds of anybody in the building?” Thompson said. “It’s somewhere out there in Neverland, where somebody’s dreamed up something down in the basement of their mom’s house.”
      If that's not undeniable proof I don't know what is.

        Still, there was the game at Soldier Field in 1997, when one of Wolf’s players was injured and play was stopped. Wolf broke the silence when he blurted out, “drag his ass off the field, and let’s play the game.”
        Or the time in Detroit during the 1993 NFC wild-card game, when George Teague returned an interception 101 yards for a touchdown. With each stride down the field, Wolf, as legend has it, uttered the words “shove it up their ass” over and over for as long as it took the NFL safety to run the length of the field.
        Sounds like me during a game. Or a Game Thread poster.

          Thompson also heard endless speculation surrounding head coach Mike McCarthy.

          Why didn't he quiet the noise down at the time?

          "Why interject something that's not in the minds of anybody in the building?" Thompson said. "It's somewhere out there in Neverland, where somebody's dreamed up something down in the basement of their mom's house."

          While the killers in high places
          Say their prayers out loud
          But they've summoned, they've summoned up

          • McCarthy deserves kudos for righting the ship. However, he still did make that horrific 4th down call on his own side of the field...followed up the nest week with the same pathetic run call that almost lost the Dallas game if Crosby doesn't nail a 56 yard FG.

            I still see several areas where McCarthy simply has to improve to be a truly elite coach. This "run the table" over the last 2 months has been far more about the play of Rodgers than it has been about the genius of McCarthy. Again...I'm giving him kudos for not losing the locker room and showing confidence even when things were falling apart. I'm not going to crown his ass though.

                  The reason why that run didn't work is because Spriggs got beat bad and his guy tackled Monty behind the LOS.

                    Taylor* also got torched, so even if Spriggs gets the cutoff block that play might have lost yards.


                    *I thought it was Linsley who got blown past but other commenters said it was Lane.

                      Did Spriggs get beat bad because the opponent knew what was coming? Is Spriggs (a man with a body built for pass blocking the edge) your best choice to be there on that play?

                        Precisely. Stubby can be too loyal, stubborn, predictable...and occasionally makes the kind of dumb decision you don't expect from one of the top 3 or 4 coaches in professional football. That said, there certainly are other areas of coaching or leadership you can point to where he absolutely is one of the best in the league...and not all of his decisions are dumb.

                            LOL. I'm commissioning my tombstone artist as we speak.
                            One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

                            • I think when the Packers run out of gas Sunday we're all going to realize that MM didn't get them out of the tailspin soon enough, and it cost them down the road. He seems to, more often than not, get off to sluggish starts, or go 3-1 but then follow that up with some sluggish play. Hard to get homefield advantage and a bye when you do that.

                                True. But unlike the AFC, in the NFC nobody gets homefield advantage year after year. It's always someone different. When the Packers have had homefield, as in 2011 or 2007 (after Dallas lost), they have squandered it. Just as they play better with their backs against the wall, they also seem to play better in road playoff games (except when they don't). They remind me a little of the 1970s Dallas team in that way. Not the road part, the backs against the wall.
