If Rodgers is the only problem and Mike doesn't have the balls to bench him then McCarthy is the problem and he needs to go

McCarthy has the balls...he's already done it once. He said he screwed up in 2007 Giants PO game by not making a QB change, he wont make same mistake again.
Replacing a legend mid season is difficult. If not done right, half the locker room could feel Rodgers gives them the best chance of winning and a team can be lost.
But he's working on it! He cant say Rodgers sucks; but announcing they're going to rely more on the running game is coach speak for, "I dont trust my QB and I'm phasing him out." Think about it: our RBs are a Starks, whose knee just got cut; a terribly hobbled and asthma ridden Lacy and Don Jackson. He's saying he's shifting workload to that group from 2-time MVP Rodgers? Trust me, Trust Boy is on the way out.
I assure you that if Rodgers gets concussed, GB will be "very careful" with the injury and give Hundley 2-3 starts. McCarthy will not go through another season like this. Rodgers will be gone in off season unless there's a dramatic turnaround.
