Aaron Rodgers and Mike McCarthy disagree on the attack

The Green Bay Packers are likely to miss the playoffs for the second year in a row after losing for the third time in four games on Thursday, and tensions begin to intensify between the head coach of the Green Bay Packers. team and the starting quarterback.

Speak on NFL GameDay Morning Ian Rapoport, a member of the NFL network, said Sunday that the Packers' record was not the only reason why Mike McCarthy's future in Green Bay would be jeopardized.

"Mike McCarthy is certainly now in the hot seat of Green Bay," said Rapoport. "He needs to close hard, it seems, to keep his position in Green Bay, obviously one of the oldest coaches in the NFL, and everything is doubtful.

"And there are many reasons for that." One of them involves a disconnect with Aaron Rodgers – the tension that reigns over the direction of the offense. </ P> <p> Rodgers was pretty screaming about his frustration at playing the game and his lack of creativity was present.Tuesday night, of course, it's something [Packers] CEO Mark Murphy will have to make a big decision at the end of the year. "

During the 27-24 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday, it was clear that the Packers offensive was not performing to its full potential. The team struggled a lot in the third and in the red zone. Rodgers' habit of keeping the ball too long made him an easy target for bags that kill by car.

While it's questionable to characterize Rodgers' struggles as a byproduct of a bland and often outsize offensive strategy orchestrated by McCarthy, the bottom line is that it does not work – and Rodgers will only not the one who will leave if he does not do it. t be repaired.

This is not the first time this season that there are reports of tensions between Rodgers and McCarthy. In October, Murphy told Rapoport that there was tension between the two, but added that he did not believe that it was a problem that could harm the team. Murphy expressed confidence that the Packers would solve all the problems and reverse things.

Murphy's optimism was evident immediately after the Packers 2-2-1 start. Sitting at 4-5-1 with a big game against the Minnesota Vikings, Green Bay will likely win the vast majority of their last six games to try their luck in the playoffs.
