Gus was a good guy but not a HC. Happy to see him put out of his and our misery. We'll see what's next. Looks like an interim announcement tomorrow, and then who knows. Everybody around here is talking TC, but I'm skeptical. The more I think about it, the more I feel that doesn't seem to be the way Shad rolls. Smitty may come back as the HC if it's up to Caldwell, but who knows about that?

Wins do us no good at this point, sorry to say. Bortles is a basket case by now, so we'll have to see where we're at and move on from there.
 
If the Packers don't ditch Mike McChuckaway (4th and 26) and Domedy Capers pronto we're going absolutely nowhere. The Dalglish of the NFL - time to move on. The Head Office need to take their collective heads out of their asses and realise that we mess up too often. This was a 13-3 schedule and they are nowhere near into the Play offs yet (yes, win out and then it'll be so) but - every time the Pack meet a half decent team - often on the road - in the play-offs it's game over. Last 8 is not good enough. The NFC title game is the minimum requirement frankly in a Conference that they are consistently ranked 1 or 2 at the start of every year.

I don't think McCarthy is a bad coach. He's bad at managing a lead and to a lesser extent a clock but most coaches are. He's always complained that he never gets help with free agency and/or help for Rodgers. I can't say he's wrong either there are a crazy number of young and undrafted players on the team. They have a decent amount of cap room too I think. Also that doesn't mean you have to sign a Suh or anything, but they could have shored up a few positions with solid vets. I mean Montgomery did good today at RB but that was because LOL Bears but he's a freaking TE.

I also think the Packers win the division because I have no faith in the Lions.
 
It's amazing Marvin Lewis still has a job. Cincy was celebrating plays in the first half like they already won. you could see the inevitable collapse coming from an hour away

Lewis is their best coach in decades. Its the incompetent ownership that saddles him with so many knuckleheads.

No point in playing out the farce anymore. There is a dearth of bad coaching in the NFL these days. I don't know of any assistants you would want other than McDaniels, Haley or Jim Bob Cooter. And 2 of them have already been fired as a head coach (Haley got a bit of a raw deal though). The Ravens DC has also done well this year.

Who's peoples picks for the Superbowl?

Patriots look the easy pick. Cowboys look value but can their quarterback perform all the way....Packers at 12-1 and showing form?
 
Patriots for sure in the AFC. Like you have my doubts on Dallas. Wouldn't rule out Green Bay or the Giants.

NFC is a total tossup. I guess Dallas should be the favorites. Dallas might also get the Giants in the divisionals.

Pats are prohibitive favorites in the AFC. KC matches up well against them and that's just about it.

Dark Horse: Dolphins: 9-1 in the final 10 games. Plus waxed the Steelers (likely 1st round opp) early in the season. Mat Moore is a solid QB.

I'm hopeful that if the packers get past detroit at the weekend, then they could go far, as long as Rodgers stays fit.

Detroit is dead. Stafford's hand has been hurt. I'm not too high on GB though. I think their D will get shredded once they play someone good.
