Im not taking any sides here, but those coaches won multiple super bowls so I would say no.Does that make Lombardi unaccomplished because he had Starr? Or Belichick with Brady? Or Walsh with Montana and Young?

To clarify, I was being sarcastic. Belichick, Walsh, and Lombardi are all time greats. McCarthy is very good.
I figured, but it's hard or impossible to tell in text sometimes. Emoticons, my friend. Emoticons.
Doesn't that kind of take away from the snark though?
I would think it's his decision. I was not aware that Thompson decided which assistant coaches stay or go.I like McCarthy. I only wish he'd make the case for a new DC. Maybe he did but was overruled.
McCarthy may have the call further down the food chain. Capers strikes me as an organizational decision particularly given what he's likely making and the amount of payout were he fired.I would think it's his decision. I was not aware that Thompson decided which assistant coaches stay or go.
My own theory is that Capers would have already been gone if it wasn't for the fact that they finish between weeks 18 and 21 every year, when the coveted DC candidates have already been snatched up.
That's a reasoned response. However, the situation calls for some creative destruction even if there are risks involved.I would be surprised if McCarthy had the authority to unilaterally decide to fire Capers and I would also be surprised if Capers stood a chance of staying if McCarthy wanted him gone.
Rarely do head coaches want to fire their own assistants. Usually it's pushed on them from higher up.

Yeah, there are still some Favre dead-enders out there.I have read some pretty objectively stupid things on this forum, and the trade Rodgers people are among the worst offenders.
