Haha Rodgers also threw Favre under the bus for sucking in his final years compared to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St Vince Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Rodgers presser is making him look good. I really believe he's genuine with his answers and he's mending bridges. Now they need to find Murphy and put a muzzle on his mouth and keep all microphones away from him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltarich87 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Rodgers showing that the Packers were smart to not consult with him regarding roster decisions, because for the most part, they've been correct in their assessments of letting certain vets walk in FA. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is you can't get sentimental regarding these transactions. I guess you could lessen the blow somehow if they're being cut. Aaron having a problem with veterans being let go is also kind of hilarious, considering he is 100 percent the beneficiary of Thompson being comfortable moving on from Favre and not doing exactly what he seems to be advocating the FO do now.

In Rodgers defense he has went out of his way to say he didn't want final say- just have a word in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Maybe not a communicator with actual decision-making power (re: personnel decisions) but someone in the room who can offer advice on HOW to communicate the decisions the football guys make. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct. In a hard cap league, some tough "end of career" decisions will have to be made which supercede the player's history of greatness or his locker room presence. Hell....YA Title, OJ, Namath etc got traded at the end of their careers (there was no free agency). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodjahs12 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I wish I could have seen the look on Schefter's face the exact moment Rodgers said he wanted to be here and loved being here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, I agree Rodgers likely would have been good other places too. I love that Ted and Gutey rarely moved on too late but hard to argue with him wanting to at least consider Julius, Jordy, and Charles on super cheap deals.

You don't have to be sentimental to give a guy a proper good bye who played for you for 8+ years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
