Was just thinking. Now that Mike McCarthy is gone, will Rodgers suddenly be able to throw the short pass that he’s been throwing at receivers feet this season?
If that DOES happen, then that would bring up the question if he was making bad throws on purpose.
I don’t think that’s the case, but just can’t grasp how a QB, who has been able to thread the needle in the past, suddenly loses the ability to make throws that he made in the past.
Has he “hit the wall” earlier then most great QBs have done? Or was this season just a blip on the radar?
Maybe he’s just “gun shy”, afraid he might get injured again? I just don’t know.
It seems that Mike McCarthy didn’t just lose Rodgers, but most of the players.

Aaron Rodgers is hyper sensitive about being criticized. You actually think he'd miss passes that would subject him to such criticism? Rodgers has been consistent, they need to get a rhythm so if a new play caller is getting him into a rhythm, we're going to see more accurate passes. If you doubt this, think about RB's who say they need multiple carries to get into the flow of the game. They need to get hit to adjusted to the speed of the game. Well, playing QB is no different, you need to get into a rhythm.

I get that, Zero. And I’m not saying what I said was true, or factual.
It was just a thought, and wondered if anyone else had any ideas about it.

Mark Murphy comes across as a bumbler. Is he acting as another Aaron Rodgers yesman? I hope not. Dude needs to be held accountable. That's why I favor someone like Holmgren. That dude wouldn't take jack shit from a QB. He'd have Aaron running the steps at Lambeau.

He throws fits when he loses domino's in the locker room for crying out loud. And he's got a massive chip on his shoulder and for us to think he's going to miss passes on purpose? I just refuse to believe it at all. Just my thoughts.

I would give Rodgers one more start to prove that he hasn’t lost it.
If he looks as pitiful as he did against the Cardinals, I would sit him for the rest of the season.
If he plays like the old Aaron Rodgers then firing McCarthy was probably the right thing to do.

It looks like Aaron is gonna get his chance to prove he knows better. I hope he does.[twocents]

Listen, it has been time for McCarthy to go for years now. The only surprises here are that it didn't happen MUCH sooner and that it happened mid-season. Otherwise, this has been a long time coming. It was time to move on. It just should have happened sooner, or at the latest, this past off season. That's on Murphy.
