Nope. Despite their injuries they’ve managed to win two games without RodgersSo the Packers should fire Mike McCarthy because they look pathetic without just one player?

ExactlyI don't want him fired midseason. I would prefer he be fired no matter the outcome of this season. He should have been fired years ago.
2-5, with those 2 wins coming in close games to 2 of the worst teams in the NFL and 4 of those 5 losses being by multiple scores. Sounds about equal to what we have done without both are best offensive and our best defensive player.Nope. Despite their injuries they’ve managed to win two games without Rodgers
If you make your entire team dependent on one player that is inexcusable as a head coach. The Pats can win without Brady, the Vikings can win without Bridgewater, the Broncos won without Manning, etc.They have won multiple games with a backup QB. Obviously QB is the one position where it is somewhat excusable to not be competitive without your starter. You could also argue that the Packers supporting cast has been relatively weak for a long time and they have been riding the coat tails of the greatest QB of all time.
However, 1-11 isn't acceptable under any circumstances. And when non-QB injuries/suspensions lead to your team becoming the Cleveland Browns, that's not excusable in any way, shape or form.

How did the Pats do without Brady (the best QB of all time) last year?QB is by far the most important position in the NFL and perhaps all of sports, especially when you're talking about the greatest QB of all time.
The loss of other non-QBs, however great they are, should not lead to an equitable collapse as losing a QB of that caliber. It just shouldn't - this isn't hard.

So you can win without a great QB.Very well. 3-1. Strange question.....

So fire Mike McCarthy. But honestly I am sorta indifferent in this argument other than the fact that I don't want my coach fired when there is still season to play (I same thing same thing about my Sun Devils firing TG when we still have a bowl game to play and he had a pretty decent year). But I will say this, if he makes the playoffs with all the ******** thrust at us all year (Zeke suspension, 1 holding call in the last 8 weeks, Jerry and Goodell going to war with each other, etc), we don't fire him.Correct. Which was my initial argument. Jason Garrett not only is unable to win without a great QB, he's unable to win without supporting position players. Inexcusable.

Yep you would have fired Jimmy, I'll ignore you now.Why would anyone on this board care about what happens to Mike McCarthy? Sure, fire him. Or give him a lifetime contract. Who cares?
But that aside, yes I agree it'd be foolish to fire him midseason. However, anything short of a Super Bowl and he should be fired, IMO. The supporting reasons for that lie just as much in prior seasons as this one. IMO, he's just not a good HC and we'll have to overcome his weaknesses to ever win anything of merit.
The difference? Jimmy went 1-15 his first season as a head coach. And had to clean the roster of the old guys that were hanging on while trying to piece together new fresh talent.Yep you would have fired Jimmy, I'll ignore you now.
Ummm this is his 8th season moron.The difference? Jimmy went 1-15 his first season as a head coach. And had to clean the roster of the old guys that were hanging on while trying to piece together new fresh talent.
Jason Garrett went 1-11 with the best offensive line in football, and a generally well talented team that was only missing their QB, in his EIGHT season.
His EIGHT season as a coach
A season after going 12-4 too I might add
