When the franchise player and the head coach don't get along, the head coach loses.

Now reading that the Falcons and Panthers might be looking for new coaches. I don't want McCarthy in our division.

Good luck to them... there's nobody good right now, that's worth bringing in.

Nevermind.

So, how does Jimmy Graham now feel about signing with the Fudge Packers?

Aaron Rodgers has become a "Legend In His Own Mind"

McCarthy will have no problem finding a new role somewhere. He has proven his abilities as a coach and there are a lot of teams that could use his services. 13 years is a long time in the same organization. Couple that with Rodgers not playing well, the writing was on the wall and someone had to take the bullet. Agree though.....just don't want to see him in our division.

Jimmy signed for the money, it was never about the opportunity. No way any other team was going to pay him what the PACK offered. I still don't understand what they were thinking.

Re: Packers fire McCarthy; Philbin in as Interim HC
 

Jimmy is definitely a money guy. He used the NFLPA to try an leverage more money from us. I'm very happy he's gone and I'm equally happy we didn't bring him back.

A Super Bowl winning coach is on the street. Crazy, he won't be for long. Rodgers is the epitome of a D-I-V-A.
