no clue on this guy. everyone has an opinion:

"“I still can’t believe this is happening. Can’t believe McDaniels will soon be hired by the Colts, and entrusted with Andrew Luck. Can’t believe he was the hottest commodity on the coaching market this fall. McDaniels is Lane Kiffin to me, an arrogant young punk who ascended rapidly after Daddy got him a cherry first job in coaching – McDaniels’ father, Ohio high school legend Thom McDaniels, was friends with Nick Saban, who hired Josh as a grad assistant at Michigan State in 1999 – and who kept getting promoted to the point of failure.” -- Gregg Doyel

I think that the Indy media and fans were very salty when McDaniels told them no at the last minute.  So they call him a punk and arrogant.  In a strange way I wouldn't mind a Packers coach with an edge to him that is a little arrogant.

I still think it is going to come down to Gase and McDaniels.

McDaniels is an excellent choice & will handle Rodgers, coaching him back on track toward greatness.

"Aaron Rodgers, in this system, would throw for 7,000 yards" - Tom Brady

The 2 things I have reservations about are 1) that system isn't just McDaniels doing everything, BB always hires a great staff and each position group is well coached, I hope JM will pay that kind of attention to staff. It gives me hope that he hired guys like Wink Martindale, Adam Gase, Mike McCoy, etc. 2) being a creative, innovative play caller is great when all you are is the play caller, how is he going to handle all the in-game things that HC's have to deal with...certainly that is something MM struggled with (game management).
