The Packers Have Packed It In


The play of designated quarterback tradee Brett Hundley has demonstrated three things. 1st, Ted Thompson doesn’t know a quarterback from his ass and for that matter a hole in the ground. 2nd. Mike McCarthy can’t teach a bad quarterback new tricks, but he can ride a great quarterback to the Super Bowl and developing a reputation as one of the great quarterback whisiperers and play callers the game has ever known. SAD.

3rd, when Rodgers went down Ted Thompson didn’t go out and get a veteran quarterback (Brian Hoyer), but compounded the misjudgments of himself and the incompetence of McCarthy and the result has been a 4 losses in 5 games (thank god for da Bears) that has virtually ended the one thing President and CEO Mark Murphy and Executive Vice President, General Manager and Director of Football Operations Ted Thompson cares about in the whole world the consecutive playoff appearance streak that had reached eight, which tied it for the longest current streak in the NFL along with the Patriots, who are going to make it nine and, just to rub it in, signed Hoyer.


The total embarrassment that was the game last Sunday against the vastly overrated Baltimore Ravens before a totally embarrassed and dissatisfied Packer faithful at Lambeau Field should have shook up the McCarthy and his coaching staff (we don’t expect Murphy or Thompson to change course. They are in too deep) to find a solution to save the season until Aaron Rodgers comes back. But for some odd reason McCarthy is staying with Hundley comes Hell or high water.

The only reason I can think of is McCarthy feels Joe Callahan is not an NFL caliber quarterback even though he has outplayed Hundley even preseason. It surely can’t be McCarthy’s ego thinking if he makes a change it just shows he’s not a quarterback guru. It can’t be that. So if it is Callahan is no good then why is he there? The incompetence of Thompson providing a playoff caliber roster is staggering.
 
The Exception to the Thompson Rule
I only hope the Board of Directors is watching. If Murphy and Thompson aren’t fired at the end of the season then maybe it’s time for a Packer Backer Revolt and boycott to demand a change in the front office because the “Just Good Enough” Packers of the Murphy/Thompson Era were only “smoke and Rodgers” and are really the “Aren’t Good Enough” Packers I’ve been warning about for many years.
If the Board Won't Act Bring Bob Harlan Back as the "Turk"
