We went through this, we’re not going to see eye to eye. I believe the past 3 or so years there has been an unnecessary amount of hate and unfair criticism towards AR. Even after a historic season, people were quick to ship him out over very little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He deserves more, honestly. here we are, celebrating a guy who turned the offseason into a schit show, selfishly manufactured drama, refused to restructure to help the team (like nearly a dozen of his teammates), all because he's unhappy about a 6 year contract he signed 3 years ago (and has already collected more than his guaranteed amount upon signing). All of this while playing for 2/3 seasons well below his contract value and, still, even those who recognize how schitty that was are some level of happy he's back 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve already said how I see it and what I think of others who see it like you. Nobody is free of criticism , the past 3 years have been ridiculous.

I'm happy because it means GB is a legit SB contender this season, which is all I care about as a Packers fan. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 Delighted that he's back. Outstanding QB. Last year was one of the funnest seasons to follow ever, and the offense was really a pleasure to watch. This team has a chance to be really good again, the offense maybe even better. Glad to have 12 back to make it possible. Not sure how January will go. But the next 5 months have a chance to be really interesting and enjoyable. Go Pack, and I hope Rodgers stays healthy and accurate! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Packerraymond Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 2 hours ago, Outpost31 said: Lol. Everybody is shifting right back to loving Rodgers as if he had any choice but to do what he just did. He’s a butt. A baby. A whiner. He just didn’t quite get his way and now he’s the hero for coming back? You all realize this is his last year here unless he wins a Super Bowl, right? If we win the Super Bowl this year you pay him whatever he wants and live with the fact that we won’t win another one with him. That’s just good business and something you can live with. But after all of this… It is literally Super Bowl or bust for Rodgers and his future with the Packers this year. His legacy hinges on this season. But he's our butt, our baby and our whiner. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t give a care if our QB is Aaron Rodgers or Blake Bortles or Richard Simmons when we win the Super Bowl, I just want us to win the Super Bowl. OK last word on this % of the cap nonsense. The reason why % of the cap matters is because if you pay your QB 30% of the cap then it means you only have 70% left for the rest of your roster so the roster will be much weaker than it would be otherwise. This year, for the first time, Packers have gone reckless and borrowed money from the future. Lost track of how much it is - is it about 40m we have kicked into the future. Basically Rodgers entire cap has been borrowed from the future. To all intents and purposes he counts zero percent of the cap. If we kick even more of it into next year its into the negative. Rodgers cap hit has zero effect on the roster therefore your entire argument about how it is the be all and end all is utterly illogical and to be honest worthless. Yes Rodgers percentage cap hit will screw the team in the future when we pay it. But it has no bearing on whether we win the super bowl. No bearing whatsoever.
