Mike McCarthy led a sixth-seed Green Bay Packers team to a Super Bowl but watched his 15-1 squad lose their playoff opener. If one coach understands that bizarre juxtaposition, it's Coach McCarthy.
He understands the formula to win a Super Bowl. Now living in Green Bay, McCarthy has watched this year's team closely and believes they have the ingredients to make a deep playoff run. He didn't lose faith in them, even after brutal losses to the Carolina Panthers and Philadelphia Eagles, and he's equally as optimistic now.
McCarthy appeared on The Pat McAfee Show this week and heaped praise on the Packers after their win over the Chicago Bears.
