Well, when Charles Woodson says something, I listen. He knows a bunch of shit inside at 1265. CW wanted Dom gone & so MM unceremoniously let Woodson go even when he still had some game left in the tank. Dom's message was obviously growing stale with younger guys but Woodson still took the high road after they let him go.

Hey MM, Thanks for the Super Bowl but after that you can GFY! You "highly successful football coach" - go back to taking toll money. 

I'm getting more pissed by the day as this bullshit comes out. Complete effing waste.

Don't want to say that I told you so, but I told you so.

McCarthy, Philbin, Bennett, Zook, Slocum, Moss, Capers, these were the Packers COORDINATORS/ASSISTANT HEAD COACHES over the last several seasons and not one of them will be in such a position with another NFL team in 2019.

"Complacent" is about the nicest word one could use to describe what was taking place in Green Bay.

So what you're saying is you were aware of the specifics about the internal problems with this organization, which Boris is referencing.  Okay.  **** you are a miserable toad.  All you are is a marathon pisser and moaner.  I give you a week into training camp to throw out your whiny shit about Mayo LaFrog.

Check out SI Monday Morning QB today. Good story about the LaFleur hiring process in the middle of the whole article. 

β€œKyle Shanahan and those guys were in Atlanta [where LaFleur was QBs coach in 2015 and β€˜16 under Shanahan as OC], we played them a few times and really struggled with them, really struggled with their scheme and how they did things. I always really liked the way they attacked us and the way they called the game.”

Thanks for our new coach Compers!

This is crazy. 1) MM didn't let Woodson go, the GM did and I don't remember anyone here saying it was a terrible move. Woodson's time in GB had just come to an end, it's not like he went on to have All Pro years in Oakland. 2) They certainly didn't let him go because he "wanted Dom gone", as if Woodson made a power play to fire the GM. He was released because his play didn't match his salary level, which again, everyone was on board with at the time. He criticized playcalling and has since said the scheme was over complicated, that's a looooong way from "wanting Dom gone". 3) Woodson also acknowledges that Whitt's position group struggled with a lack of talent and acknowledges overall the defense struggled with injuries.  

The problem was confidence in MM. When things were going well (2009-2014)  the message was fine. When Rodgers got hurt and it was clear Rodgers was more critical than anyone expected, the lack of confidence in MM became rooted. MM and TT didn't adjust at all after that season and things slowly fell apart from there until they fell off a cliff in 2017 and there was no salvaging 2018 because Rodgers finally lost confidence.

interesting. I wanna know what was on that presentation too. Strange that the presentation he had planned to give them never happened. Must have been that great of an interview

I know it is no comparison but I have been to meetings where you plan a presentation and you end up not even giving a presentation.   You get to talking and things go so well you skip that part of it.  

All I care about is that Gute and LeFleur have a good working relationship and they work together to fix this team and I honestly think they will.  You have a young aggressive GM and a young aggressive coach and good things are going to happen.

Seems a lot of extra outrage being manufactured based on party gossip and circumstantial reports of personnel moves.  None of us know exactly what happened.  All we know is MM failed to succeed for several years, and enough to get replaced.

There was plenty of blame to go around. The Woodson/Jennings/etc. sniping going on is all extraneous.

2009-2016 should have yielded another 1-2 Super Bowl wins. Everything worked well enough (at least with Aaron Rodgers) to make the playoffs every year and have a chance. After that, TT's drafts and acquisitions had fallen off the cliff so badly that it didn't take much for it to collapse.

TT failed to add enough talent to keep that going and really optimize their chances. Too many failures on personnel at ILB. The failure to better use free agency to add guys to get them over the hump during that period was the biggest problem (other than Julius Peppers).

MM developed a culture that valued continuity and loyalty. That was good for stability, but created a culture that didn't produce enough accountability to prevent Kaepernik from running the same play a dozen times to beat them in a playoff game or prevent Bostick from free lancing on the onside kick. It didn't allow them to move on from AJ Hawk early enough. They valued trying to win 10 games each year for a long time, rather than taking some chances and adding difference making personnel that might have won them 13 games a year (at the risk of running into salary cap trouble and cutting the 10 win type run by a year or two).

Nagler is probably drunk.

Isn't he from Jersey? Those people don't need to drink to become incoherent and obnoxious.
