Kolek planning to go pro
This is his last year in GB. Thankfully.
Seahawks had been rolling through in the 4th. Why do they not go for it on 4th and 2 when Seattle is so good at running out the clock. BYE McCarthy
I won’t write off the Pack just yet, but that 2-4-1 conference record is no bueno. A loss next Sunday night would pretty much be the death blow to their playoff hopes.
McCarthy clearly isn’t going to survive, question is dump him tomorrow, and with the extra time, get whoever going? Or just wait until Black Monday? I’d do it now.
Crosby and Zook can go with him too, by the way. But knowing how the Packers operate Zook will replace Mac.
I’d do it now. The Packers won’t. They might not even do it in the offseason.Question is who do they bring in?
I'm going to be checking ESPN all day today to see if Gutes decides to can McCarthy today. If he doesn't, it's only because McCarthy has earned the respect in 13 years to not have to suffer the ignominy of a mid-season firing. He's done at the end of the year.I'd love to see Lincoln Riley as the next coach, but he seems destined for Cleveland (with Baker) or Dallas (with $$). If not Riley, then I'd try to hire a hot young OC, like Defelippo or Biemieny.The other option is to bring in a guy that is a proven winner waiting for the right opportunity to come back. Gambling Rodgers' last good years on a first-time head coach might be too risky. That's why I think we could see someone like Harbaugh.
1. I'd fire McCarthy now. Get it over with.2. I do think this team goes on a run. Finishes 5-1 to end with a 9-6-1 record. Last 5 games are incredibly easy.
How many times has Seattle closed out a game with 3-4 minutes left? Did anyone really believe the Packers were going to get the ball back when they punted? As weak of a decision as you'll see.
I wouldn't classify the Bears or Falcons as "incredibly easy."

It's political correctness and nothing more. A publicity stunt. Honestly, the Browns future might now be that bad and one can make an argument they should have 7 wins right now.
