Packers fans spoiled

Green Bay Packers fans are already asking for Mike McCarthy's head after the team's 38-10 loss to the New York Jets Sunday.

But weren't these same fans in agreement that this year may be painful due to the team's need to rebuild? Making rash statements 12 games into McCarthy's tenure is downright ridiculous.

Mike Sherman put this team in a deep hole with several poor drafts. It's going to take time to dig out of that hole.

By changing coaches again at the end of the season is just idiotic. The Packers spoiled fans by winning too much over the past decade and now their expectations are way out of whack.

Give McCarthy and GM Ted Thompson some time and this team will be good once again.

Yes, Sunday's game was painful. But that's the price you pay for the damage Sherman's drafts did.
