Bryan: Welcome back to Scramble for the Ball! Well, welcome back to all of you except Mike McCarthy, who was sent packing this week after the Packers' loss to the Cardinals. McCarthy is only the second Super Bowl-winning coach to be fired midseason, joining Don McCafferty. A very exclusive club.
Andrew: Sent packing? Unpacked? Packed off? Packing for the Crash?
Bryan: Packed away, without even getting the customary 21-brat salute or being drizzled in melted cheese. I assume that's how Green Bay salutes leaving legends, at least.
Andrew: McCarthy's interesting to me, as a guy who was hired as the head coach of an esteemed franchise the year after he coordinated the worst offense in recent league history, took that franchise from 4-12 to 13-3 within two seasons, and won them a Super Bowl, but still probably left fans with a prevailing feeling of underachievement.
