    thats what the story from the team and van pelt were

    if they wanted to allow van pelt to save some face, this is the story they would use

    also, has anyone heard any buzz what so ever about him becoming an OC anywhere? or even any interest?

    i call total BS on the story, he was canned

    It was announced before he was fired. It was covered last year. This wasn't something they invented after he was let go.

    He WAS not signed to a new deal, so the Packers did decide to move on. Result same but no firing.
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Oh, Jason Wilde said Van Pelt didn't sign an extension because he wanted out so he could pursue a OC job elsewhere.

    That is true, it was reported before this season began. But it doesn't stop Van Pelt from wanting to come back to the Packers when he did not get an OC job.

    And McCarthy did not hire him back.

    Nailed it.

    So instead Mike McCarthy takes a QB Coach, from of all places, the NY Giants Organization; as if last Season recommended that. As if that Guy has the Resume and credentials for the job as the New Packers QB's Coach.

    Ohh MM and he go way back to the 1980's. Not any reason of importance and essential criteria to hire anybody.

    MM based that hire on the recommendation of former NY Giants HC Ben McAdoo; who may have embarrassed himself permanently out of any higher Position and Coaching in the NFL again. Ben McAdoo may go down in NFL History as being the NFL Head Coach that made the biggest blunder in NFL History benching Eli Manning for a QB that can't throw dirt.

    Frankly Mike McCarthy will soon run out of excuses. He's certainly not fooling Aaron Rodgers.

    this seems like exaggeration.

    If someone did that in my company, I would fire him right away. If we somehow came to a 1 year deal and he was going to look elsewhere, when he couldn’t find a job with another company I wouldn’t take him back.

    Van Pelt made it know he wanted to be OC elsewhere. His gamble didn’t work out.
    But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.

    Kinda depends on the circumstance, doesn't it?

    If the guy is that replaceable, why are you signing two year deals and keeping him from interviewing?

    Take him back if he is the best guy, don't replace him with some former Schottenheimer coach.

    If we rehired him, he would jump at the first opportunity to another team. No chance to develop continuity long-term. Get someone new who will be in GB for a while who wants to be here.

    I get the downside. But to improve, you must have someone new you want to develop and grow with long term. Frank Cignetti is Italian for stop gap.

    wait, do we know for certain he wanted to come back if he didn't get OC job? Maybe he wanted the Packer OC job and that's why he won't come back. My view is alterable subject to new info.

    Certainly possible. Though this view means that Rodgers probably knows why, but is publicly agitating about not being told.

    MM wouldn't do anything but tell the exact TRUTH would he !?

    The weird thing and Mike McCarthy there are too many in here that actually cannot see that Punk for what he is.

    Mike McCarthy and now Mark Murphy and tied to MM are the WEAKEST LINKS.

    I hope so very much that Mike McCarthy gets canned after next Season.
