GREEN BAY – Mike McCarthy has never seen a better throw.
That’s saying something for a coach who has been in the NFL since 1993, working with several Pro Bowl quarterbacks and teaching the mechanics and fine points of the position as well as anybody.
The pass Aaron Rodgers launched with no time on the clock Thursday night might never be topped in his mind.
“That’s probably the best throw I’ve seen in my time in this game,” McCarthy said on Friday, roughly 12 hours after the Packers’ team plane returned from Detroit following an exhilarating and miraculous Hail Mary victory.
