It feels like a bad marriage sometimes. He seems unable to put the hammer down when necessary, and it affects his team. He may be a great coach someday, but I don't think he's there yet. Your point about Johnson and Payton gives credibility to my thoughts on coaches. They're like QBs or running backs, there are great coaches and also rans. But we know this, MLF ain't getting it done. But I will also thought about this the other day, about the confluence of events that lead to a Super Bowl victory. Lack of key injuries, favorable calls by officials in key moments (intentional or not), timely decisions by coaching staff, role players stepping up to overperform. Think about it, in the last 10-15 years, who, other than Mahomes or  Brady, has had the stars align and won more than one SuperBowl. I guess it's possible we're faulting MLF for factors beyond his control. Perhaps our expectations are too great.For example, even had we beaten the Bears, (and that loss was inexcusable), I don't see us beating the Seahawks this year. This team had inherent limitations very difficult to overcome. And I say that as a Packer fan of over 60 years!</blockquote>
