18. Green Bay Packers

Will the Green Bay Packers finally realize that it’s time to part ways with Mike McCarthy as head coach after another frustrating loss to the Seattle Seahawks in a game they arguably should have won? McCarthy has received the benefit of the doubt on numerous occasions over the years when the Packers have come up short of expectations, but what taken place this year for the Packers has been pathetic.

Not only has Green Bay yet to win a single game on the road so far in 2018 despite five attempts, but the team sits below .500 heading into their Week 12 meeting with the Minnesota Vikings, which nobody expected to see happen. With a healthy Aaron Rodgers, the Packers were supposed to return to the level of being Super Bowl contenders in the NFC, which has been far from the case.

Things have been so bad for Green Bay as of late that some football fans are getting to the point where they believe McCarthy is holding back Rodgers, and putting some of his best years to waste. For a head coach that has received plenty of opportunities over the years, it’s gotten to a point where it’s tough to defend McCarthy’s losses for the Packers.
