The idea for The McCarthy Project sprung from a mutual desire to watch tape and stay on top of trends in the NFL and college football in anticipation of a return in , and it quickly expanded into a full-fledged operation.
Haslett had connections to obtain "All" coaches tape, often faster than even NFL teams get it. The group traveled to Cincinnati for a six-hour meeting at Pro Football Focus , which collaborated on some ideas and provided resources that expedited the process of filtering tape and creating cutups.
Justin Rudd, a former DV Sport software executive, pulled together the technology. Most mornings, Haslett who lives in Cincinnati and Cignetti New Jersey get on the phone together and talk through tape all day. McCarthy does the same in person with McCurley, a longtime Packers defensive assistant. Then for one week each month, Haslett and Cignetti travel to Green Bay and stay in the upstairs living quarters of the barn, which is outfitted with a bed, sofa and kitchenette.
Downstairs, there's a full-sized gymnasium, golf simulator and exercise room. A few steps away is the mancave, its pinball machines and pool table covered up by whiteboards and laptops, with the furniture rearranged around tables to face the TV like an NFL meeting room. We started doing games. We started saying, 'What do you want to run? Let's look at the pass concepts. How has Andy Reid successfully incorporated college concepts to flood the wide side of the field into his version of the West Coast offense?
How do the Cowboys get Dak Prescott in rhythm on the deep cross? How are other teams borrowing the "Fish" concept on deep shots that McCarthy made a staple of his Packers offense? It's all been part of one long conversation throughout the season, and the Xs and Os are just a piece of it. What worked before? What needs to be done better?
The plan for all of it is laid out on two whiteboards, covered with notes on every scheme project they've completed and every aspect of the football operation they intend to build. No matter where he ends up, McCarthy doesn't envision a total teardown. I've looked at every team in the league and their commitment to analytics, and football technology and video. Because everybody has analytics, but it has to be part of your everyday operation to show up on Sundays.
It can't be a subcontractor. It needs to be part of your everyday operation. Said Cignetti: "Mike had a vision. Once we had the video and we had each other, the sky's the limit. McCarthy says the biggest regret of his time in Green Bay was not having his family prepared for defeat -- his firing, the suddenness of it and the unique conversations it created with his children, such as one of his young daughters asking before a school pride day whether she can still cheer for the Packers.
He became emotional in our interview when I asked, why does he need to do this? Why move the family across the country to get back on the sideline? But what I've found through this transition is We need to do this And then you think it's a way of life for a coach, but it's for your whole family. We need football right now. We won't need it forever, but we need it right now. Jessica's born and raised here. We love it here. But in the same breath, this is not just an opportunity for me to grow as a coach, it's an opportunity for our family to really grow.
And there's more out there. And Jessica and I want to give these kids that experience. So, that's what I mean when I say we need football. I'm not talking about the games. I'm talking about the challenges that it gives you as a family.
I've got total belief in Mike McCarthy. Arizona Cardinals cornerback Patrick Peterson is set to play out the final year of his contract, but things could get interesting for the eight-time Pro Bowler after this season.
