This made me laugh out loud. Brightened a sucky day for me, so thanks for that.
I don't think Rodgers was trying to get McCarthy fired. His level of play also wasn't dramatically different this week -- he still demonstrated a tendency to hold on to the ball when opportunities for quick strikes presented themselves. But there did seem to be more pep in his step week, which made it hard not to think there wasn't at least some degree of relief that he was out from under the authority of McCarthy.
Of course, it was just one week. We'll see how the rest of the season plays out, while we hope for better things to come next year.
