What Does McCarthy Have to Do Next Year to Get A Contract Extension?

[red]

I need to see some initiative of change on his part offensively. Watching the playoffs this year, I kept telling my wife, the biggest difference I see with these teams is some kind of creativity on offense. We have none. That, or the plays that mccarthy probably thinks are creative are just stupid. Other offenses made sense also. You'd see plays made off of other plays, and actions based off of other actions. You rarely see that in our offense. You see crossing patterns, and guys using other guys in "picks" to get open. When we run it, we get flagged, which is also coaching. I'ver personally never been a fan of mccarthy, so I wouldn't care if he left.

Yes yes and yes

Realistically if what we see and Packer President and CEO Mark Murphy and Packer HC Mike McCarthy is LOVE.

We're stuck with MM for a minimum two - three more Seasons and that can be translated to no Super Bowl.

Mike McCarthy should have been FIRED after the 2017 Season, but somehow he managed to wiggle his ass out of that fate with his too obvious to me sneaky ways.

Packer Nation deserved a lot more than another Season of Mike McCarthy BS !

The truth is, McCarthy is a below average coach through and through. If not for a couple of elite QBs, McCarthy would be in Canada today coaching the Redblacks of the CFL.

McCarthy's track record without Favre or Rodgers is abominable to the core of the earth. I mean, McCarthy turned Aaron Brooks into a turnover machine. Shot Alex Smith's confidence. Turned Brian Brohm into Rich Campbell, our Scott Campbell's lil bro. Oversaw Hundley's devolution from an inspiration into a carbon copy of Kizer.

And his Win-Loss record without Favre and Rodgers is an abomination.

If the Packers don't win the SB next season, I'd trade McCarthy to a bottom feeder. The Browns would certainly love to have the highly successful NFL coach.

We don't want such BULLSHIT as 'any Mike McCarthy' in Canada, as we have enough of that already and Politicians.

I suggest a Backup QB that resembles a Backup QB not the 'not NFL capable waste of time Pretender' we had this past Season.

When our receivers get covered it doesn't look as if the defensive backs are physically gifted. It looks as if they know the route tree better than the receivers.

Snap after snap the receivers are freaking blanketed.

Deep playoff run saves his job. That’s about it.

[Maxie the Taxi]

I'll judge Stubby more on how he uses the clock and manages the game when it is all on the line in the final seven minutes in the playoff games (as it usually is). If he plays the same old conservative crap as he has in the past, he will be done.

I think if that happens then there is a solid chance he stays

People in the organization and fans will just come up with more excuses for him like they do every year

I might be grasping at straws here, but I think you give fans a little too much power. You and I literally have no power in this situation.

[Zool]

I think Fat Mike needs a deep run because right now he looks like a lame duck coach with a “vote of confidence” from the GM. That’s never a good place to be as a coach.

[Freak Out]

SB win if Rodgers is healthy.

Where does MM stand % wise in terms of the Packer coaches ?

% of what?

Not defending McCarthy, but you don't move on without a succession plan and a solid chance of a good replacement. Better be prepared to roll the dice on the next head coach and take your chances. What percentages of new coaches fail?

This year was a disappointment, primarily because Hundley didn't live up to expectations and the front office went "all in" on his abilities.

We've been in the NFC championship game how many times in the last few years? Seems our defense has been the one to "drop the ball" - no pun intended - pretty much every year except 2010. Acknowledge that the buck stops with McCarthy.

I'm interested to see what a new DC, the return of Philbin, and a new GM - potentially with a new approach to team composition - can do with this roster. I'm open to seeing what McCarthy can do with these new pieces, primarily because I'm not convinced change for the sake of change is a good betting proposition.

I mean, McCarthy turned Aaron Brooks into a turnover machine.

What does this mean? Brooks was a turnover machine. McCarthy kept that harnessed for almost two seasons before it went truly ugly. Brooks was terrible and McCathy made the best of him.

McCarthy is a Top 10 coach, but his contract circumstances at 1265 don't seem to align with that view.
