Here is the blockbuster 'Can Of Worms ' Story on Green Bay Packer dysfunction.

What does that mean? Favre had two years with Stubby and 2007 was outstanding except at Chicago and the final game/pass. But it wasn't Favre's fault they couldn't run the ball against the Giants.

Well, 2006 wasn't any great shakes and featured a lot of INTs, which is what we'd come to expect.

But mostly I mean that he was at the one read and throw it stage of his career. He was not interested in hanging out in the pocket for >3 seconds. It was the time of his career where he would explain a play or throw by flashback, as he did about that last throw to Driver versus the Giants in '07. My feeling about that year is that McCarthy had to adjust to Favre more to make it work.

Well, we have seen them run that defense against that play before and Donald had adjusted by running his route a little tighter to the inside but this time he adjusted differently

It wasn't bad, it was just his way of running that offense. From the memory of what went before. And that italicized part is very paraphrased.

I found the video and edited my post.

Wow, really concerning in hindsight.

[gbgary]

almost every other team hires a new GM and then lets them find their head coach

when they don't, the coaches are considered lame ducks

with an experienced gm i could see both happening but gute was a noob and after murphy was burned by the whole thompson situation he wanted to be hands-on in the coaching hire too. he'll never turn his back on the football side, by trusting it fully to a gm, again.

Perhaps, but it doesn't usually happen right away. When A GM is hired at the end of a season, he has a ton of work to do evaluating the player roster so he can prepare for free agency and the draft. To cite a recent example, John Dorsey did not fire Hue Jackson upon getting the job even though Jackson was 1-31 as a head coach with the Browns. He waited until midway through the 2018 season.

TT didn't dump HC Mike Sherman until year two as the Packers GM.

I just read an account of what really happened on the night the Packers 'reluctantly' picked Aaron Rodgers as the 24th pick of his Draft Class and more on the Brett Favre or Aaron Rodgers smozzle from a totally first hand legitiment source or Andrew Brandt, that is just mind blowing and a real piss off.

Damn the Green Bay Packers jerked Packer Nation around on that f..king mess. The Packers at the very top and TT AND MM JUST HANDLED IT REALLY POORLY.

I simply watched very interested and closely just how MM handled himself in that whole Favre " should I retire or not affair "; and yes my stance was strongly opposed here by too many that are now history.

I could not in my assessment of it all not feel that MM was a total asshole in that matter.

My position today: Noone should ever trust the likes of a Mike McCarthy;
or anyone who is so damnable self serving.

'Integrity' is a hard earned and extremely positive personality trait and frankly MM FAILS THE TEST.

Sadly, I finally have the answer to Ted Thompson's ways and manners. TT simply has a serious state of mental incapascity to deal with; very likely related to all the times he was probably concussed playing LBer in Houston.

Please someone post ** this info. Where you judge it needs to be posted. As simple Packer fans and members of a much larger group we know popularly as 'Packer Nation' we are of late receiving a barrage of some dramatic or sensational news. We are I feel finally getting where any relationship must be and real healing to move forward or sifting through a shitstorm of info.; to hopefully in our collective good sence here at Packerrats arriving finally in ' the former and post Favre Era '...THE TRUTH.

Google these keywords for a LINK to post the specific info. here on Packerrats.com:

So it turns out the Packers also didn't want Rodgers on Draft Night ?!?!...please use those words for a good LINK.

This article or story poped up on the Internet on a Google Link tonight from barstoolsports.com..and the Author is Liz Gonzales who posted it on 4/19/2019 @ 9:09 PM EST......we need to verify the source, but it looks good.

There is full video of then Green Bay Packer VP Andrew Brandt on the Gary Vee Show informing us of the story of that 2005 Draft Night and the Green Bay Packers reluctantly selecting Aaron Rodgers. Doing so nearly at the end of the 15 minute time limit or about 13 minutes into that; for the pick because the Packers were waiting on an offer from another organization for Aaron Rodgers.

Isn't that vintage Ted Thompson thinking more is better over quality. Your going to learn how the best move the Packers ever made in the TT Era was reluctantly made. If this isn't a final analysis of Ted Thompson then what is?

Even when TT got it right.and we got to see a great QB again in Green Bay...Mr. 'scratch his head' Ted Thompson in Truth...fluked it. Ted Thomson was unprepared to consider Aaron Rodgers as his first Draft pick. How many more times was it just that way? Why did TT REMAIN OUR Team's GM for over the top too long? You know why?

In two words....Management incompetence.

TT and MM fooled way too many Packer fans; how did they fool upper Management?

Now, how do you feel about the strength of resolve to remain quiet on all this crap by ' a real Man ' Brett Favre?!

HAPPY EASTER WEEKEND Packerrats.
