Most of the time, coaches take more blame than is appropriate.
After all, coaches don’t block, tackle, fumble or grab facemasks. The players do that, so they’re ultimately more responsible than guys with headsets, bad comb-overs and beer guts.
Most of the time.
Sunday afternoon in Atlanta, Georgia was not one of those times.
Atrociously bad coaching in all three phases [...]
And Vikings week, chapter one (technically, chapter three) has officially begun.
That being the case, there’s quite a bit of news surrounding the Green Bay Packers, a team that’s lost three of four and desperately needs to right the ship.
What better time than now to make a trip back to the question department, right? After all, [...]
Up until Monday night, it’d been quite a magic act pulled off by the Green Bay Packers.
The Packers, using something similar to sleight of hand, actually had us believing they had changed many of their famously - or is that infamously? - self-defeating ways from previous years. Also apparently gone were the poor special teams performances this [...]
With the “dress rehearsal” preseason game – i.e., game No. 3 – against the Indianapolis Colts just five days away, Green Bay Packers head coach Mike McCarthy took a cautious approach Saturday night against the Seattle Seahawks.

Terms were not immediately announced.
Martin was scheduled to be a restricted free agent. With a long list of players set for restricted free agency, [...]
I promised you a full game recap…and here it is.
Halfway through the 2009 NFL season, the Green Bay Packers were anywhere but where they wanted to be. It looked like another lost season as question marks – or just downright negatives – far outweighed any positives.
Four wins in a row to start the second half [...]
Even the most rabid, foaming at the mouth, bloodthirsty Mike McCarthy hater could not have envisioned it coming to this.
But then again, no one could have envisioned the Green Bay Packers actually losing to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, either.
That happened, though – dear God did that happen. The Packers’ 38-28 road loss to the previously [...]
(As I type this, a backup punter for the Tennessee Titans has just taken a fake punt to the house for the first score of the preseason. Football’s back! It’s baaaaaack!!)
With the Green Bay Packers just over a week into training camp – nine practices, to be exact – it seemed like a good time [...]
