NFL season https://www.thepackersfanshop.com/Nick-Perry-Jersey , the Chicago Bears lost no ground in the NFC North title hunt despite their first loss since October. But that loss took a back seat to the news that shortly followed on Sunday: the Green Bay Packers’ firing of Mike McCarthy.All around the division, there is much being said about the Packers’ former head coach, who was relieved of duties after the team’s 20-17 loss to the lowly Arizona Cardinals. After 13 seasons and a 125-77-2 record, McCarthy’s legacy around the division is that of a productive head coach that became a nemesis for the Packers’ rivals. One such competitor went as far to label it a “mistake” in wake of Sunday’s news.However, McCarthy may be the first domino to fall for NFC North coaching shake-ups, at least since the Lions’ firing of Joe Marciano as special teams coach earlier this season. A number of names are on the bubble, while some are listed as potential names to watch for the Packers’ open position.Storylines involving coaches make up today’s divisional rundown.Chicago Bears (8-4)Lsot 30-27 at New York Giants; Next vs. Los Angeles RamsChicago Bears picked right week to lose for first time since OctoberBears Head Coach Matt Nagy is suddenly the second-longest tenured coach in the division and one of his assistants could be a candidate for Green Bay.Will Packers take a look at Fitzgerald?The Chicago Tribune examines the relationship between Mark Murphy and Pat Fitzgerald from their time together at Northwestern.Divisional shake-up: Packers fire Mike McCarthyAlthough it may not be surprising that McCarthy was fired, the former head coach had an outstanding record against the Packers’ rival to the south.Detroit Lions (4-8)Lost 30-16 vs. Los Angeles Rams; Next at ArizonaPackers should look to Josh McDaniels, Jim Caldwell as top coach candidatesWhile not from the Detroit local media, this article mentions a familiar name in that area as a head coaching candidate for Green Bay and his experience with established quarterbacks.Detroit Lions: Should Matt Patricia be on the hot seat?First-year coach or not Davante Adams Jersey , Patricia is entering a critical prove-it stretch of the season with Detroit owning a 4-8 record. Rams assistant seen as coordinator material as heat builds in DetroitAfter firing their special teams coach a few weeks ago, the Lions could very well begin searching for their next Offensive Coordinator soon while their head coach’s seat warms up.Minnesota Vikings (6-5-1)Lost 24-10 at New England; Next at SeattleMike Zimmer on Packers firing Mike McCarthy: ‘I think it’s a mistake’On top of calling it “sad,” Zimmer was not fond of the Packers’ decision to sever ties with a divisional coaching counterpart.A dozen games into Vikings season, Mike Zimmer and John DeFilippo still not on same pageAnother first-year coordinator could be in jeopardy of losing his job after a shaky season if one reads between the lines of Zimmer’s last post-game press conference.With McCarthy out in Green Bay, will Vikings’ DeFilippo be a candidate?Despite frustration and dissatisfaction over DeFilippo’s offense in Minnesota this season, some wonder if he will be a Packer head coaching target. The Green Bay Packers are 0-6 on the road in 2018. The team has been outscored 173 to 125 in those six games, and despite some close contests and near-comebacks, they have made crucial mistakes late in games to throw away their chances of remaining in the NFC playoff hunt.As rumors about Mike McCarthy’s job status continue to swirl, a few of his former players took to Twitter to reminisce about how he handled a similarly disappointing season a decade ago. The 2008 Packers finished their season 6-10, thanks in large part to a defense that frequently gave up leads late in games. That team actually outscored its opponents by 2.4 points per game Josh Jones Color Rush Jersey , but could not close out games when they had late leads, eventually leading to the firing of defensive coordinator Bob Sanders, who was replaced by Dom Capers.That year, the Packers lost each of their final five road games, finishing 1-7 away from Lambeau Field. Defensive back and return man Will Blackmon got the conversation started during Sunday night’s 24-17 victory by the Minnesota Vikings, thinking back to when McCarthy apparently refused to allow his team to have good accommodations when they traveled.For those unfamiliar, The First 48 is a true crime television show on A&E that focuses on homicide investigations.Blackmon specifically mentioned former Packers teammates James Jones and Charles Woodson above, and the two piped up to concur with his sentiments a little later:Ryan Grant, who rushed for over 1,200 yards that season https://www.thepackersfanshop.com/David-Bakhtiari-Jersey , also got in on the fun:The Packers apparently did get to stay in a nicer place before their fifth and final consecutive road loss, however:And then there’s linebacker Brady Poppinga, who had a very different take on the hotel situation during that season:Still, Blackmon has a sense of humor about the whole situation. He correctly noted after the discussion that the Packers went out and won Super Bowl XLV two seasons later — and said that the players actually got a kick out of that policy at the time. He also said that he “loved” McCarthy, so clearly he does not hold any ill will towards his former head coach.Regardless, it’s interesting to see former Packers discussing McCarthy when he is clearly fighting for his job.
