The Facts:
Mike McCarthy's new deal with the Green Bay Packers might be just a signature away. Packers chairman Bob Harlan said Friday negotiations between the team and McCarthy are progressing well but are not complete. "The signed copy has not crossed my desk yet," Harlan said.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The Green Bay Press-Gazette reported on Friday that McCarthy and the team have agreed in principle to a five-year deal worth about $4 million per season. Harlan said negotiations have been going well, but this week has been "slow" because Packers GM Ted Thompson was in Houston scouting the East-West Shrine game and McCarthy has been preparing the team for Sunday's NFC Championship game against the Giants. McCarthy confirmed earlier this week that the two sides were making progress on a new deal, but didn't seem eager to talk about it for fear that it could create a distraction going into Sunday's game.
