Silverstein: Packers' loyalty to Brett Hundley misguided
Wow. that was from the GBPG website (MJS article)...
Thompson should continue to focus on only one aspect of player acquisition and McCarthy should stubbornly stand behind a backup quarterback who through eight starts plays like he’s a hologram programmed only to do two things: scramble and throw the ball away out of bounds and overthrow receivers running deep.
The recipe for finishing the home portion of your schedule in utter humiliation was written during the offseason when Thompson did little more than replace his free-agent losses with players kicked to the curb by their previous teams.
It also ignored the possibility that the quarterback he and McCarthy had been banking on to fill Aaron Rodgers’ shoes should the unthinkable happen wasn’t good enough to throw a single touchdown pass in five home starts. It brazenly called for the most promising of the three backups in training camp, Taysom Hill, to be released.

More than likely he just obstinately refused to admit he was wrong about a guy who gets sent back to Go every time it seems like he might make it past Baltic Avenue.
If McCarthy had bothered to look around and see the body language of some of his players as Hundley continually refused to maneuver inside the pocket or spot open receivers when he did leave the pocket, he would have seen a defeated team.
