[QUOTE="TJV, post: 517040, member: 4300"] I don’t know what you are talking about and IMO the timing of this comment couldn’t be worse. McCarthy is so blindly loyal to his QB room that in spite of crappy preseason performances, Graham Harrell is still the backup QB and BJ Coleman is still #3 (Coleman is no doubt still in Green Bay because he’s [I]Thompson’s guy[/I]) [I]WHY IS HE SO STUBBORN AND LOYAL??!![/I] Oh wait … that’s right, McCarthy is [I]so loyal[/I] both of them were jettisoned along with Vince Young and two QBs McCarthy has no previous history with in Green Bay are on the roster and practice squad. I think this qualifies as an outdated opinion and I refer you to the second post in this thread by HRE. Many Packers fans had exaggerated opinions of Flynn’s worth before he signed with Seattle. I too was hoping Thompson could work out a ‘tag and trade’ that would have been worth more than what the comp pick they received for losing him. But look what’s happened since that time. And add the fact that Philbin, who knew Flynn extremely well and just had become the HC of a team in need of a QB, passed on him, too. There was evidence to support the notion that Flynn was the best option at backup QB in the spring of 2012, but the evidence didn’t stop there. Thompson and McCarthy both make mistakes but I don’t have any reason to believe they aren’t continuously doing what they consider to be in the best interest of the Packers. [/QUOTE]
