MIKE SHERMAN SHOULD BE FIRED (day nine)
Alright. So everyone who doesn't write sports columns for a living or is employed by the Packers cough-Wayne-Laravee-cough agrees that Sherman should have flattened his last seat cushion in Green Bay by now.We all want him fired, or worse.
So genius, what's your brilliant plan?
I'd fire Sherman now and also remove Slowik and possibly Rossley.
Oh, that's great ...you can't fire a coach in the middle of the season.
First, it's not the middle of the season, it's the beginning. Second, yes you can fire a coach now. The season is lost. Even comments by the Packers players hint to that. Everyone knows it is over, which means things are only going to get worse. The only reason you'd keep him is because you'd fear that it would ruin the season. Guess what, it's already ruined.
Who's going to replace them? Did you ever think of that!??
Yes, I have. We can promote from within so the players know the coaches, the scheme will remain mostly the same, and the transition will be mostly smooth. We can make it through the year like this, and look to start over next year. All these suggestions are currently on the Packers staff.
Interim head coach - Vince Tobin. Has four years head coaching experience, including playoffs, extensive defensive coordinating experience.
Defensive Coordinator - Kurt Schottenheimer. Has coordinator experience.
Assistant Defensive Coordinator - Lionel Washington.
Offensive Coordinator - Ray Sherman. Has coordinating experience. Did it for Vikings in 1999 when they went to the playoffs and 1998 with Pittsburg.
Assistant Offensive Coordinator - Darrell Bevell
Quarterbacks Coach - Doug Pederson
That's the plan.
It's a good plan. So, whenever you hear a sports pundit scoff and ask "whose going to replace him", you now have an answer.
