Mr.Ted Thompson and Coach McCarthy could be in the unemployment line if this trend keeps up....

Awful! That fourth quarter implosion was as bad as I have seen them play in a long time.

A friend sent this to me today - just a joke....

"The British wore red coats to hide the blood stains in battle. They didn't want their fellow soldiers to freak out when they saw each other all bloodied on the battle field.
The Packers thought this was a great idea, so that's why they wear yellow pants!"

Don't shoot the messenger.

McCarthy in the noon news now...guess ppl are twitter-ing in, calling for his and Thompson's firing!

Razz...you KNOW peeps will be retelling that one!! LOL

Very good Razz!

I think both Thompson and McCarthy need to be axed. Thompson refuses to bring in any top talent through the free agent market. Gee, I wonder where the talent came from that built the 90's Super Bowl team. Relying on draft choices only will relegate the Packers to the level of the Cleveland Browns.

All the penalties and an offensive line that couldn't stop a group of nursing home residents from sacking the quarterback? That's the coaching! I remember when Donny Anderson was new carried the ball in the late 60's. We used to call him "Fumbles Anderson" because in his first few months, he fumbled the ball every game. Lombardi solved his fumbling problem by making Anderson carry the ball 24/7, even sleeping with it. Anderson learned real quick how not to fumble the ball. If McCarthy were any kind of coach, he would have come up with something to solve the penalty problems and a solution to the non-offensive line.

When you have an ineffective player, you dump him. When you have an ineffective head coach and general manager, you dump them! Knowing Green Bay though, we're likely looking at a drought second only to the 70's. Those two characters will be in there a few more years.

Do you ever see Thompson in his box seat when they show him on camera? He looks like a deer in headlights, just stiff as a board and staring into space. The only thing I like about him is that he keeps his butt off the field, unlike Jerry Jones (yea, he owns them, but he doesn't belong there either). Thompson and McCarthy will say it is about execution, which is right......but you can't play people that aren't ready to do the job either.

I'm just glad Rodgers has the music thing going...he keeps getting sacked like that, early retirement might be sooner than he thinks.

Oh yeah, Thompson is as stoic as it gets as he sits in the box. There's just something about him that I don't like. Maybe it's the way he looks or maybe it's the way he talks, but to me, he's one of those characters that as soon as you see him, you don't like him.

Execution? Remember Lombardi? He used nothing but basic football plays (and the "power sweep") but executed plays to perfection. The opposing teams all knew what was coming at them, but the Packers were so good at executing, no team could ever stop them. Again, that all practice and coaching.

As Paul Hornung said; "Practice...practice...practice!"

I noticed when they kept showing Thompson in the box during the Viking game, that he was surrounded by all of his friends. It is a good thing Favre did not return to Green Bay. At his age with the pounding he would have taken, he'd likely be in intensive care by now.
