Should probly put it off for awhile after the squishing by Seattle and barely beating the Jets.

oshbaul,you are treading in some dangerous territory here. MM is a golden cow.
Is dependent on the defensive performance or coach retention this season.
MM is a damn good coach and it appears he has a goof working relationship with TT. He also appears to be evolving as a coach and I don't see any reason why the Packers wouldn't extend him. All he has done has kept the Packers in contention year after year and win a SB within the last 5 Years. I know everyone thinks we should win the SB every year and that we should have the best O and best D in the league, but those expectations aren't realistic.

Can't tell if this is posted by PackerRuss or Boston Jim

I agree with Hungry5 here. The defense needs to improve to at least 15th in yards/points for Dom to have any chance to stay. Keep him around after another sub-par performance & then I'm looking for a new HC too.
MM has earned an opportunity to start over with a new defensive staff. Whether he takes it or not is up to him.
Exactly. Resist the Norvening.
The Norvening sounds like a Stephen King short story from the 80's that M Night Shaymalan tried to turn into a 90's movie starring Danny Glover and Gary Busey.
Just throwing that out there.
That's about right.
Winning a SB gets you a lot of goodwill from the fan base but it's not an endless supply. Expecting mediocrity on the defensive side of the ball isn't unrealistic and it's time for MM to either deliver or make the required changes.

MM has built an impressive resume' in a relatively short amount of time. And making the playoffs every year is just an impressive, but getting our asses handed to us every year is NOT.
Everyone wants to win, of course, and it could be easier to stomach if they were close, hard-fought, competitive games. But getting steamrolled year after year is the kind of thing that will make you puke.
Losing by 3 points is steamrolled.
It is when it's the last play of the game.
When Murpy retires TOGs number and unveils his name on the Ring of Honor he should announce that Bert has been named HC and GM.
There's a difference between being competitive against a mostly healthy superior foe for 56 minutes, experiencing a gut-wrenching, heart-breaking loss to them...
...and being steamrolled.
The mind just makes them feel the same.

It is in soccer.
The Packers are a long term team. MM gets an extension without reference to one week or one month, but based on his years of excellence. You don't day trade with coaches and GMs.

X4 does, there's an entire archive full of it

****ing great song!
Next 3 games.
As regards to TT and MM:
