The Packers get a shutout for an early Xmas gift from their purple friends!
Tuned into the Packers post game radio show and a lot of the call-ins were editorializing the end of Mike McCarthy. What?

McCarthy hasn't been the problem, with or without Aaron Rodgers. It's the GM's fault! Ted Thompson's drastic under-staffing of the Packers roster has been masked by Rodgers' uplifting play the entire time he's quarterbacked. In Rodgers' absence we're just now getting to see the poor foundation Thompson has gotten away with for 12 seasons now.

most fans only know to blame the head coach or the QB

Don't know why Clueless Hue trotted out Kizer he leads the League in picks.Just took the Browns out of a chance to go ahead in the Christmas spirit he is.He truly is horrific with plenty of time to throw I might add :91:
Kizer has all the physical talent in the world, but he should've never came out. He wasn't ready emotionally or mentally and his knowledge of the game wasn't where it needed to be. He needed way more development, and even his college coach Brian Kelly said as much.
Kizer has enormous talent, but he should've been on the bench for most of his 1st year. Hue Jackson starting him then yanking him then starting him- he's destroying that kids confidence. He has handled development of a young QB about as bad as I've ever seen. Only Jeff Fisher's clueless dumbass handled QB's worse than Hue has.

Hue Jackson has got to go. The guy is a clown show. He's a decent OC, but that's all he is. He is not head coach material and he's not some cutting edge amazing inventive OC like a Mike Martz or Josh McDaniels.

agree 100%.
McCarthy is one of the best coaches in the game. Rodgers is an enormous talent, but he wouldn't have been as successful as he was without him. McCarthy helped re-develop Rodgers coming out of Cal, and he is one of the best offensive play-callers in the entire NFL. McCarthy has very little input on personnel, that all falls on Ted Thompson.

in what should be a surprise to no one, New England likely to sign ex-Steelers OLB James Harrison, per ESPN.

Ravens can clinch a spot in the playoffs with a win over the Bengals. Which is sort of amazing to me considering that roster is pretty much trash and that QB they handed a boatload of money to is the definition of mediocre.

Outside of Belichik, is there a better coach in the NFL than John Harbaugh? Pretty amazing to me that one guy had two sons that are just flat out amazing football coaches.

pains me to say it, but I think Belichik has earned that label. After that though, not sure there's a guy I'd take over John. Pete Carroll is great but the inmates run the asylum a little bit too much with him. Jim is obviously great but there's an immaturity/burn out factor there, he rubs a lot of people the wrong way. John is every bit as good without that other stuff- + that Super Bowl win head-to-head- so I guess you'd have to say he's better.
That Ravens roster has no business with a shot at 10-6 and a shot at the post-season. And Joe Flacco is the most mediocre "franchise" QB in the game. Most great coaches have great QB's. Jimmy Johnson had Troy Aikman. Bill Walsh had Joe Montana. Belichik had Brady. Tom Landry had Roger Staubach. Those are probably 4 of the 10 best QB's ever. John or Jim's never had a QB like that.

NY Giants Pro Bowl safety Landon Collins calls out his own teammate Eli Apple and calls him a cancer on ESPN radio. Don't often see that happen. My guess is Apple is on his last legs there. Never made sense to me that pick, the Giants taking Apple with a top 10 pick. He was good, but he wasn't that good.
