In what world is the Packers roster "poor" anyway? It's not KC, but fuck all the excuses for that choking crybaby. Dude had a fucking All Pro performing O line for the last few seasons and Adam's to throw to.

13-3 two seasons in a row. #1 offense last year. Rodgers just choked as he always does. He didn't even show up vs the Niners two years ago. Guy turtles and turtles hard in the post-season. 1-4 in NFCCG. Same as McNabb.

Rodgers has had a top 5 OL, top 3 WR, top 10 RB, and even a top 10 TE now.

He also had a solid defense.

It’s completely overblown.

I don't think you understand Rodgers' issue. He's had decent talent, that's not what he's upset about. I'm not a huge fan of him myself, but his beef with the Packers' front office is totally understandable.

Remember all the reports we've seen of the Chiefs asking for Mahomes' input on personnel decisions and things of that nature? They do this when the guy is in his early years of his career, too. Not like he's been around for 10 seasons.

Rodgers has been with the team for 16 years, and he has never had a voice the way Mahomes (and now Brady in Tampa) have. He said in his presser he has had many elite players tell him they want to come play with him in GB. He tries to relay that info to the Packers and they basically tell him to pound sand and don't take advantage of it.

His interview was actually very interesting. He wasn't whining, just explaining his position, and he's totally correct in his assessment. The Packers have had a Hall of Famer at QB for 30 straight years now and seem to take for granted the fact that it's not actually as easy as they think to find those guys. You can't just draft the Jordan Love's of the world, throw a "G" on their helmet and assume you've struck gold. That seems to be the way they think.

That organization and fanbase need to go through 30 years of what we just went through. They are due for it, and they need to be brought back down to Earth a little bit.

Anyway, I'm just glad the whole thing is over. Rodgers is definitely overrated and has had very few clutch moments in his career aside from a few lucky Hail Mary plays, but he has still carried that team for a long time. I'd love to see him end up in Denver in 2022 and watch Mahomes kick his ass a few times per season for the next few years. At least it would make things interesting again.

I understand that Rodger’s himself isn’t complaining about the quality of the roster. I’m talking about other people.
[Reply]

Ahh, got it.

I finally saw some of his press conference and he sounded like a smug know it all little bitch.

I love my coach, I love my teammates, I love this town, but I didn't get called on any personnel decisions etc....:-).

I get that some players are elite, but elite players don't cry about being elite and not getting their way.

Also his comments about people don't come to GB to vacation they come to play football with him, good God man. He may be mostly correct but you don't say that shit in a press conference. That attitude is why he chokes then wants to blame everyone else. Its certainly not his fault, just ask him.
[Reply]

Yea, his PC was a bad look. I get that the organization is obviously part of the problem, but so is he. I find it odd how many people are fully on his side.

There’s a reason the guy can’t even get along with his own family.
[Reply]

Seems like the whole press conference was him reminding the front office they need to part ways after this season or he could actually become more of a whiney bitch. Which no one wants to see happen.

But hey they traded for Cobb so all is good.
[Reply]

He did complain about the roster though. He made a point that the team let a number of high character and quality players go.

I'm not sure anyone is really "on his side," I think it's more both sides kind of suck equally. My beef with the Packers' front office stems from Green Bay being a very small town, and I hear things about how they treat people at restaurants and places like that, and they are complete pretentious pricks. They think they are above the rest of the people around here. So Rodgers is correct in that regard.

The reason he feels he has a right to start bitching now is because he sees how Mahomes and Brady have a say in who their teams are bringing in, and he wants to be in the same situation. Can't say I blame him, but you also can't really blame the Packers. This is a newer trend and they did finally buy into it by bringing in Cobb like Rodgers asked and now Dennis Kelly is coming in, too.

I'm just glad they'll be parting ways after the season and we won't have to hear about it anymore.

Their defense isn’t good dude. They’ve been drafting DB’s for like 8 years now and almost everyone of them but Jaire Alexander and Darnell Savage sucks.

They drafted so many DB’s and pretty much all of them are out of football.

Rashan Gary isn’t very good either. He’s pretty average for his draft status.
[Reply]

Their defense has been in the top 10-15 the last 2 years. They’re “solid” like I said.
[Reply]

Put Mahomes in Rodgers' position at the end of the game in the NFC championship. Mahomes would have scored. He absolutely would have run it in. And if he didn't, he would have made a better throw or found a better solution than the one Rodgers chose.

The Packers should have won that game. The reason why they didn't is because Aaron Rodgers choked.

The cold hard truth.
