McCarthy trashes Packers GM for how his firing was handled

The firing of Mike McCarthy couldn't have been handled worse...   It literally should have taken place two years ago....

I can't imagine them moving on from AR.  Despite a down year in 2018, he's still the best overall QB in the league IMO.  Having said that, Rodgers was apparently told to "not be the problem" with regard to the new HC and that's a pretty damning indictment of him having BEEN a problem in the past.  Whether he takes that to heart or his ego and prickly sensitivity continue to intervene remains to be seen.  If he doesn't do a better job with regard to "chemistry" with his HC and fellow players then maybe something could happen a year or two from now.  But it's hard to "move on" from a player that's almost impossible to replace and the fan base would lose their freaking minds.

The Bleacher Report article from a couple days ago did alot to confirm the suspicions that many had.  AR is a phenomenal QB talent but seems to be not very easy to work with professionally or even get along with personally.  When a team is winning and winning often those things get papered over.  When the winning becomes less frequent, the ugliness beneath the surface tens to seep out.  Cutler for years was lambasted for being "detached" and "aloof" while Rodgers for years escaped most criticism for his bitching at receivers, petulant whining when something doesn't go his way, and clear public disdain for McCarthy.  When the consistent winning stopped the last 2 seasons, it bubbled to the surface.
