You may have noticed that we haven’t been talking about everyone else talking about Mike McCarthy being on the hot seat. There’s a simple reason for that.
Most of us would have liked to see Fat Mike’s rotund ass tossed years ago. Buffoon has always been on our hot seat because of a litany of recurring issues — the buffoonish decisions, consistently getting outcoached in big games, the lack of in-game adjustments, the refusal to adapt to personnel and the superior I-don’t-have-to-answer-to-you attitude.
Sure, McCarthy does some things very well. He’s very good at preparation… if only he were as good at motivation. He stands up for his guys, which takes pressure off them to some degree. He runs a structured program, which theoretically keeps players focused.
Then there’s all the usual stuff. The stuff Mark Murphy likes to point out each offseason after the Packers don’t win the Super Bowl again, as reasons why the organization is still successful.
And that’s basically what Eric Mangini pointed out to Colin Cowherd today.
4 reasons Mike McCarthy shouldn't be on the hot seat according to Eric Mangini pic.twitter.com/DrZtRH6sgQ

Here’s the thing and we’ve been saying this all along — Mangini is pointing out things that fall short of the ultimate goal. We don’t care about regular season wins. The Cleveland Browns care about regular season wins. We don’t care about playoff appearances. The Cincinnati Bengals care about that.
Further, the lack of turnovers are not on McCarthy. That is a result of having a quarterback who would rather take a sack than take even the slightest chance of throwing into coverage. And if you want to talk discipline, then throw penalties into that mix with turnovers. I bet that would paint a totally different picture.
We still highly doubt anything will happen to McCarthy so long as Mr. Status Quo Mark Murphy is in Green Bay. He fosters the playoffs are good enough mentality.
And so, we’ll surely hear all about all Mike McCarthy has accomplished for years to come. Winning seasons, playoff appearances and that one Super Bowl.
To us, Super Bowls are all that matters. To the Packers, that’s no longer the case.
How many coaches have multiple Super Bowl wins? It sucks to say, but McCarthy and the core of this team don’t have the drive it takes. They aren’t New England. The motivation pre-2010 is nowhere to be found since. It could be worse, you could be a Viking or Bills fan
I don’t think MM is ever going to be fired. It is difficult to fire a Super Bowl winning coach. Just a guess but I do not believe MM will be back next year win or lose. The team and MM will call it a parting of ways (lose), or health concerns (Lose or win), but no way will the word fired be used. MM has made all the money he needs and you have to believe McCarthy’s younger brothers early death weighs on MM and his family. The only thing to figure out is how much of a golden parachute will MM receive from the organization. You can almost see MM by his attitude, responses, and reactions in his interviews, etc. say why the hell am I putting myself through this bullshit. Actually I think MM did say close to that in responding to a question.
HOWARD I hope he resigns like Tom Coughlin did. OR IF THE PACKERS LOSE IN THE PLAYOFFS THIS YEAR, GIVE him Tom Thibodeau treatment. Or if the Packers miss the playoffs, give him the Scott Brooks treatment. MCCARTHY IS A FUCKING IDIOT WHO DOESNT DESERVE A SUPER BOWL. FUCK THAT SB WIN FOR HIM.
He didn’t have to list 4 reasons, just 1……Aaron Rodgers.
Mangini should be an expert on getting fired, he’s been fired plenty.
I said the same thing when I started watching the video.
I don’t even watch garbage video’s like that anymore. Whether it’s Favre, Jennings, Cowherd, or this proven loser.
Exactly!! Your on point. I said it few times also. If Rodgers doesn’t fall in Cadaver Thompsons lap, both Fat Mike & Geriatric Ted would been fired years ago. You would think The Flagship Franchise of the NFL would learn?? Did it with Favre, now Aaron. do not get stud weapons and great coach to help these guys. Its mentality is “we have great QB, we need nothing else” DON’T get it, never will.
MIKE i agree i cannot stand McCarthy I hate him so much that a kindergardener would do better than him. Hey MIKE could you please sign this petition http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/fire-mike-mccarthy we need that page really popular. And could you please sign it as MIKE thanks. And please reply who you signed the petition as and please comment on it too. I wrote a huge rant on (http://sgtest.totalpackers.com/podcast/relax-the-packers-have-been-here-before/) about that fuckboy idiot. Thank you!
MCCARTHY IS A LOSER PF4L nuff said.
The Broncos made it to the Super Bowl with John Fox (lost), and got to the playoffs the next year. They just couldn’t make the cut. Then they got rid of Fox and won the Super Bowl in Kubiaks first year. McCarthy just can’t make the cut anymore like Fox. Even when the Packers won the Super Bowl I had zero confidence in his buffoonery. The game itself was another typical run up the score and pump the brakes game so we can wait for time to run out. Thank god for Nick Collins and Charles Woodsons halftime speech.
Don’t forget Mathews hit (fumble) on Lady Mendenhall.
This guy Eric Mangini is a fucking idiot. McHippo should be fired you dumb fuck. Are you statisfied with ruining the prime of Aaron Rodgers and going one and done in the playoffs. GTFO with that bullshit and shut your retarded ass up. McCarthy needs to be fired PERIOD!
