Number of the Day: The Pack's 14 Straight
In Aaron Rodgers, In Green Bay Packers, In Holmgren, In Lombardi, In Mike McCarthy, In number of the day, In TeachNovember 8, 2011
Who has the longest win streak as a head coach of the Packers?
Lombardi? No.
Holmgren? No.
Mike McCarthy? Yes.
Notice the difference between those three guys--we still have to use the full name for one of them.
Aaron Rodgers is causing the stat book to combust, and just this past week, on the cover of Sports Illustrated, he and his receivers mugged for the camera. Clay Matthews blows up plays, flexes, and does Rapunzel's stunts. Charles Woodson is disgruntled. Ted Thompson scouted and selected all the talent. And Mike McCarthy is just a dude calling plays; plays that have given birth to 14 straight victories.
So, how good of a coach is Mike McCarthy, considering that his stature as a coach is part of some chicken or the egg conundrum?
