Midseason Grades

Considering the circumstances, I don't know how MM doesn't get at least an A-.  Monday night was a low point for him but that was also a really tough spot to be in.

 

I could say the same for AR considering what he has had to work with but even before the injuries there were stretches where he was just not his usual self.

ST are slightly better than C+. Cosby has been very good. Ginger is punting great as ever. We have a punt return for a TD.  Yes the coverage teams are not good but that is because the guys who should be doing them are starting or doing double duty.

I'm not sure if coaching includes all the coaches or just MM. If it's just MM, I don't know how he can get lower than an A. He has retooled the team's mentality to include power running, he has taught AR the value of the running game which he has now embraced, and as the offensive playcaller MM has been great at integrating guys who have hardly seen the field until now. He's also changed his own mindset to embrace the running game, which was a huge change for him.

 

If it includes Capers and our secondary coaches, then I can see where the grade is lower.

I give the "injury report' each week an A+.

 

Chock full of information and always full of quality players!

I jut can't imagine any team losing their all-pro QB, 2 top pass rushers and 3 top receivers and being ok.  That's more or less what the Packers were dealing with against the Bears.  TT and MM get an "A" from me.  Unfortunately, they'll need to do even better these next 4 weeks to stay above water.  

Just what are they grading?  It is hard to grade when things aren't the same from week to week.  All position groups have been hit with injuries at one time or another.  Given all that the Pack have been thru this year, MM gets at least an A+ just for holding it all together. 

McCarthy gets a solid "F" for his stupid face on the sideline.

"I was peeking at the tunnel. I'm not going to lie"

MM when asked if he was hopeful AR would be able to return Monday night.

That's the absolute apex of the guys willingness to admit injuries are hurting this team. MM is a freaking block of granite when it comes to moving forward. It's impressive how he carries on and continues to win football games year after year having to reshuffle the pieces as often as he does.
