its very possible that some people feel google is the best place to work on the planet while others hate it with a passion. cant that packers or any other organization elicit similarly opposite reactions? god knows that even if jared goff threw for 60 tds next year at least 1 person on this board "would not be sold". thus it stands to reason that some players or employees disliked mccarthy, rodgers or the packers in general while offers did not.
No there's no easy way out of this one. Very rarely if ever have so many ex-players gone on record about a qb like this. Some have with coaches but not to this extent. And they tell a story, it's not a matter of "liking" or "disliking." The story holds up or it doesn't. McCarthy lost the team or he didn't. Rodgers was hard to deal with or he wasn't. The story here is that both things are true. In terms of the Rodgers part of it, this is not the first time Rodgers has been portrayed as kind of a wiener. There's nothing new to that story. That's an old story.
Plus of course for your version to be true, either (1) the reporter accidentally stumbled across a bunch of scouts, front office people, coaches, and players who all just happened to think the same things. All the others? He just happened to call when they weren't home. OR (2) he suppressed anyone who spoke on the other side of the story.
The odds of either thing happening?
Naw it's much more likely that readers who don''t like Rodgers, McCarthy, or both being portrayed this way keep trying to drum up arguments for not believing it, cause they don't want to.
