Comments on: Packers stay in-house to replace Joe Philbin, promote Clements http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/02/02/packers-stay-in-house-to-replace-joe-philbin-promote-clements/ ProFootballTalk on NBCSports.com Thu, 20 Jun 2013 01:42:11 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: stavreafavre http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/02/02/packers-stay-in-house-to-replace-joe-philbin-promote-clements/#comment-1557687 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 21:08:30 +0000 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=206707#comment-1557687 It’s good to shake things up at least a little bit every few years. Clements may have some new plays to suggest. Be interesting to see who takes over the QB coach post, because he’ll have some work to do with Harrell and probably some new guy.
And the most surprising news of the season was the Vikings failing to get to the four win mark. Wow, I thought they could make it.

They are over and will not reach the playoffs next year.

Their smoke and mirrors has been figured out.

I’m sure you’ll do a great job. As a long-time Fighting Irish fan, with your intelligence and football knowledge and ability, I thought you should have gotten the head coaching job at your alma mater in 2005.

December 31, 1973 the whole world found out how good he was.

You really need a hobby.

Both of those teams had freaking GOLDEN opportunities to try to reel in Clements. Both FAILED … miserably. Clements even made it clear he was up to the challenge at Penn State — and Penn State crapped their pants again.

Too many reasons to list why Clements would have been a spectacular hire — and it blows to see both my teams completely asleep at the switch.

So congratulations to Green Bay! Cheese Nation scored a HUGE coup – and I respect them for recognizing how much value Clements brings to the table. Clements deserves a strong team with great fans – and they deserve an innovative up and coming coach too.

Love Clements – his next stop will be at the head coaching level in the NFL or high profile college team —- and he will kick tail. Mark it down.

I am no MN fan, but man, GB fans might be the most OCD people ever about their worthless non-stock stock selling team….you say loyal, but the rest of the NFL fans have a lot of other names you. Now let’s see all the thumbs down from the Discount Double Choke fans because we all know they can dish it out but they can’t take it!!! (Sorry to stereotype the good GB fans, I know you are out there)

This probably also allows them to keep another up-and-comer in Ben MacAdoo by promoting him to QB coach. It’s just a matter of time before he becomes a head coach.

No, the least surprising news of the NFL postseason is the Packers going 1 and done in the playoffs.

Even less surprising than the vikings not being there at all?
