Packers fire assistant coach hours after he questions team's leadership
The Green Bay Packers have let go of another coach.
Green Bay announced it dismissed associate head coach and linebackers coach Winston Moss mere hours after he opined on the Packers' leadership situation on Twitter.
Note the time stamps on the following tweets:
Ponder this... what Championship teams have are great leadership! Period! It’s not the offensive guru trend, it’s not the safe trend. Find somebody that is going to hold #12 and everybody in this building to a #LombardiStandard! Period! #losingsucks!

Both Moss and McCarthy joined the Packers in 2006 and served on the coaching staff for the past 13 seasons. Moss was McCarthy's associate head coach for the last four years.
McCarthy was fired Sunday, hours after losing to the Arizona Cardinals.
