From Lambeau to Lombardi, Holmgren, McCarthy and LaFleur and from Starr to Favre, Rodgers and now Jordan Love we’re talking Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers football. This Packers Forum is the place to talk NFL football and everything Packers. So, pull up a keyboard, make yourself at home and let’s talk some Packers football.
It's also a shame, though, because early in his run with us, MM was a good leader of men. I distinctly remember it. I think "nobody's underdog" really resonated. I think the team building activities resonated. Obviously, his QB school really helped. He developed Rodgers and he transformed Favre's late-career. And he got the team together, united.
He's just... old. He just doesn't connect anymore. What they said about the Austin Powers stuff and "mojo" really resonated. From 1999. Poor Mike. Both the game AND the connections to the players have passed him by.
agree
I think McCarthy was a damn good HC, a better HC then a offensive cord or play caller, he also was given credit for revitalizing Rich Gannons career from Rich himself.
I think he got tunnel vision as a play caller, and although he would say we needed to run to set up the pass, he wouldn't stick with the run when it was doing better then the pass, he could be so aggravating at times.
we blamed that on Rodgers, and no doubt some of that is true, but even Rodgers said we need to have a better run to pass ratio a few years back, granted having a HOF QB is what led to our success, but McCarthy also helped, second winningest coach in Packer History, takes more then just Rodgers to accomplish that.
I didn't watch. I am just anticipating because, you know, Chicago.
Let me ask you this. If it were up to you and the offer was on the table would you trade Love, straight up, for Fields, right now?
Right now yea I would take Fields. We will see what happens after tonight. Fields decision making though today looked really good. Gotta see him against better pressure though still.
Well crap. I had a feeling they might have something in Fields. I mean...they are due.

I watched the first half of the 2010 SB today and a few things popped out at me.
1. We actually did run the ball even with no RBs.
2. I was SHOCKED how much we attacked the middle of the field.
Palmy - "Very few have the ability to truly excel regardless of system. For many the system is the difference between being just a guy or an NFL starter. Fact is, everyone is talented at this level."
