The Pack will be back: you hear it here first
Monday, November 28, 2005 at 11:40AM The scenario unfolds . . ..
Steve Mariucci, Favre's old QB coach during his MVP run in early-mid-1990s, and Upper Peninsula native who grew up loving Pack as kid . . . is just fired by Lions. Matt Millen (Lion GM) is the world's biggest jackass and Mariucci suffered for it.
But no longer.
The Pack should have hired Mooch when he left the 49ers, but the timing all wrong, so we end up with Sherman, who is toast for allowing: 1) Favre's first losing season and 2) high likelihood of sweeps by both Vikes (done) and Bears (pain yet to come).
Now, Mooch is available, well in advance of Mike Sherman's inevitable firing.
We get Mooch . . . and Favre's turned on again like you won't believe.
Then Mooch convinces Terrell Owens to come and play for him again. Never a love affair in the past, but who better to take TO in? Plus, TO has always had a big crush on Favre, so imagine that scary combo?
So the O line settles, the D gets better with the scheme of first-year Def Coordinator, Green and Walker and Davenport all back. We field a trio of receivers: Owens, Walker, Driver . . . to die for!
40 points a game. Super Bowl 2007. We beat defending champs, Colts, in wild shoot-out.
You hear it here first.
