The Pat Fitzgerald/Packers buzz has led to genuine curiosity, healthy skepticism and, because it's 2018, wagering odds.
Last week MyBookie.ag listed Fitzgerald as a co-favorite with Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, at 6-1.
I'd say it's at least 16-1. But even at that, it's worth examining and asking several questions: Is Packers President Mark Murphy, the former Northwestern athletic director, genuinely interested? If so, would Fitzgerald reciprocate? If an offer were extended, would Fitzgerald actually leave Evanston for Green Bay? How long would it take him to adjust to ending media conversations with "Go Pack!" instead of "Go Cats!"?
Here are some thoughts after consulting with several people in the industry, including Fox Sports analyst Dave Wannstedt (former coach of the Bears, Dolphins and Pitt, his alma mater) plus a former college head coach who now works in the NFL and did not want to be named.
