Mike McCarthy is the most accomplished crappy coach in history. Every dollar he's ever made belongs to Aaron Rodgers.

Well, my Raiders had a great year that ended in a steaming turd pile.

Gives me at least hope for the near future, especially since being a NFL joke the last 15 years or so. I think they have turned a corner.

As far as the game, I only saw parts but Cook throws better 15+ than 15- yards it seems to me. And pretty dumb to run on first and second down, get stuffed, then make a rookie try to make a big third down on the road. Carr, maybe. Cook, not so much.

But The Black is Back, Baby!!

Yeah, I haven't seen any of their games this year, but I've heard some of the local sports talk guys dissecting the Raiders... sounds like they have an impressive young offense building (great O-line, great young QB). Sounds promising for the near future!

The Jaguars pulled a Mizzou but perhaps even worse: they paid $100k to a search firm all so they could hire a coach already on staff.

Marrone in a vacuum wouldn't be a bad hire, but he was part of the losing culture.

It was so cold at Lambeau that our beer was freezing faster than we could drink it.

Some photos from the game:

No. Surprisingly, they have some serious heaters in the bathrooms. They told us on the stadium tour that the bathrooms are the only area in Lambeau that don't have TVs - radios only. They said that if there were TVs in the restrooms, because they are so warm with the heaters in there, nobody would ever leave to head back to the field and watch the game.

I believe it.

And apparently playing in the StubHub Center until a stadium can be built... The StubHub Center has a max capacity of 27,000.

If the Rams played there, it would still be empty.

Someone tweeted last night the SD market becomes highly attractive for a team looking to move. GTFO.

The NFL has a problem. There's about to be Three teams moving in two years.
