[BobbyFlame469]

2 hall of fame QBs will do that for ya. Even if you have no idea how to manage a clock.

You sound VERY into the belief aspect. You believe the Pats win is our marquee win, despite the fact that “crap” teams have beaten “good” teams all year. You “believe” you’re right. Unless it’s Green Bay playing Detroit or the Jets, it’s anyone’s guess. If you base everything on results, all the upsets mean something too.

What ?? You lost me.
Who do you think is our marquee win this year?

 

[Haimerej]

Here's some numbers-

McCarthy December (41-18)
Against winning record teams- (9-11)
Against .500 teams, including NO this year- (6-2)
Against sub .500 teams- (26-7)
Against playoff teams- (7-6)
Against Division winners- (4-3)
Against Wild Card teams- (3-3)

My $.02-

-one of those wins against a division winner was week 17 of 2006 when the Bears had the division sealed with 13 wins.

-2012 might be his most impressive December. One of the tougher schedules. Four of 5 games were division games, MIN twice. They went 3-1, splitting with MIN, and finished at 10-6 to win the division. MIN and CHI both finished 10-6 but only MIN made the Wild Card.

I've quoted a year by year look at his December opponents so it won't take up as much space.

Slight disagreement. Don Shula is not on that list and he was Dan Marino's coach. IJS

 

[plasticman]

Better than one and done......

Again, not really.

The further you get in the playoffs, the worse it feels if you don't get in the Super Bowl.

"We were close" is the absolute worse consolation

 

[AKATheRake]

I hear ya. But I’m not much into the belief aspect. I base my analysis more on results .

The Pats win is looking like our marquee win this year.

It is our marquee win

 

[AKATheRake]

Slight disagreement. Don Shula is not on that list and he was Dan Marino's coach. IJS

Vince Lombardi, Bill Belichick, Chuck Noll, Tom Landry, Jimmy Johnson. They had HOF QB’s.

All those guys and more didn’t make that list.

You could have saved a lot of time researching and typing by just saying ”McCarthy sucks!”

Is that what you get from the numbers?

 

[DandyDon52]

Impressive. Here’s hoping he pads this already impressive stat.

all that is with rodgers, so not really valid without rodgers.

 

[ESisback]

all that is with rodgers, so not really valid without rodgers.

So the current Packers coach ain’t poop either? Bellichick had Brady, Walsh had Montana and Young, JJ had Aikman…

 

[ESisback]

Is that what you get from the numbers?

Isn’t that the point? Showing the slant that McCarthy’s a good coach is erroneous?

Have a good one Gipper!

He has a good record. His opponents he beat on average had about 6 wins a year. He beat up on a lot of bad teams in his division. Teams who beat him averaged out to 9 wins a year. I have no idea how this relates to other coaches. You're expecting losses from better teams. How much does Rodgers and Favre play in that? So far he's looking good in DEC in DAL, too, even last year.

Let's hope it continues in January.

 

[black label]

im excited lol

We HOPE for losses against better teams. That’s only natural. The GOAT team, GOST Coach and GOAT QB padded stats with YEARS of easy competition in the perpetually weak AFCE.

There’s a difference with a 1st place schedule. We didn’t have to play Green Bay or Rams this year. That makes a difference of 1 or 2 wins in a season and potentially determine whether you make the playoffs or not.

The Cowboys have failed to make the playoffs every time this era when we had 1st place schedule. 2008, 2010, 2015 and 2019.

Rams weren’t the division winner last year. Seahawks were. 1st place schedule got Seahawks and we got AZ. I much rather play the Seahawks than AZ. The 1st place schedule really doesn’t make as much difference as people think it does since teams change so much year to year.

Do you think the teams would want to play us(3rd place schedule ) or the WFT(1st place schedule ) this year?

 

[plymkr]

What’s everyone’s excuse for Rodgers being 0-2 in the nfc champ without MM?

oh

Lol, it doesn't fit the narrative.

 

[vicjagger]

Well, let's hope he's got some extra Special Sauce!
