I don't think he was suggesting Packers would keep him and put him on the bench. Actually, I think Rodgers would agree to a trade as long as it's to a team he feels he can have success with. I don't think he'd want to be here if he feels he's not wanted here. He wants to win another MVP, so the Raiders are his best chance. The Jets are going to run the ball too much for him to win MVP. The Raiders with Adams, Waller and 3rd and Renfrow are perfect for Rodgers. He can put up big stats and bow out of the playoffs, if they make them.

Hopefully if it comes to pass we will remember those words and work with the Packers to find him a new home, or retire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GB needs to make it appear they want Rodgers in GB to maximize his trade value. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just found your response to the info more extreme than expected ha. So it felt like you were upset about the reality Rodgers is likely gone. Zoloft and dabs. I’m 100% good either way, which is how I think the Packers honestly feel. I’d be super pumped to see Love full time. Jacked to clear the contract simultaneously. I want free agency back. But I think he returns to play and Gute and LaFleur will have a plan. Green Bay’s too conservative historically to kick a beloved player out when he’s one MVP 2 of the last 3 seasons. I just support the Packers and I’m not negative about players I see myself stuck with. I can’t imagine going through this season halfway cheering for our QB to fail so a switch can be made. Life’s too annoying as is to put myself in that mindset. Carrying the G isn’t cheering for losses. Those are our representatives on the field playing. Until Rodgers isn’t a Packer. I’m going to support him. IF he’s gone I be relieved I don’t have to keep trying to talk people into supporting him aka the team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won MVP because he had a 37/4 TD/INT ratio. And last year the Jets threw the ball more than the Packers or the Raiders. Jets aren't going to trade for Aaron Rodgers and then turn into the Ravens.

15412 Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Who gives an A-Rods dumb azz how many MVP’s Lord Rodg has won, that pursuit of personal pats on the back for regular season play may be part of the problem with the old man. I don’t really give any credence to the mighty McGinn, but irregardless of his article the Packers front office should indeed be miffed at ol Rodg for failing yet once again but first they need to throw themselves under the bus for signing him to that beyond stupid contract in the first place. Move the canker sore to the highest bidder and move on building for the now and future. You can’t do that without getting the cap numbers back under control.

Scoremore Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 4 hours ago, {Family Ghost} said: Stumbled upon some quotes from the McGinn piece. “AS OF RIGHT NOW, I’M CONVINCED — BASED ON MY OWN INSTINCTS AND KNOWING THE NFL AND KNOWING WHAT HAPPENS AFTER ALL THESE DEFEATS AND DISCUSSIONS WITH SOMEONE WHO HAS FIRSTHAND KNOWLEDGE OF THIS ORGANIZATION, OF THE PACKERS’ INTERNAL DEBATES — THAT THEY ARE DONE WITH RODGERS. THAT’S THE WAY IT IS RIGHT NOW, THAT HE’S NOT COMING BACK. THEY’RE DISGUSTED WITH HIM AND THEY’RE DONE WITH HIM AND THEY’RE MOVING ON. THIS IS GOING TO INVOLVE MONEY AND A TRADE PARTNER AND ALL KINDS OF THINGS. BUT I’M TOTALLY CONVINCED HE IS NOT GOING TO BE THEIR STARTING QUARTERBACK THIS YEAR… …IT’S LOVE’S TURN. THE ORGANIZATION’S GOING THAT WAY. AND THAT’S THE WAY IT IS. THIS IS EVERYBODY, I’M TOLD. THIS IS MURPHY. THIS IS LAFLEUR. THIS IS GUTEKUNST. THIS IS THE WHOLE SHOOTING MATCH. THEY’VE TURNED THE PAGE. THEY DON’T SEE RODGERS AS A GUY WHO’S REALLY WORKING HARD ANYMORE. THEY SEE A GUY WHO — WHEN HE REPORTED THIS YEAR — HIS BODY WASN’T SO-CALLED ‘TIGHT’ AND STRONG AS IT WAS. THEY SEE A GUY WHO BLEW OFF THE OFFSEASON LAST YEAR. … THEY’RE DONE.” https://www.sportsmockery.com/chicago-bears/packers-reportedly-moving-on-from-aaron-rodgers/ It's all over social media now too. Thanks McGinn. Nice article. Reason I never liked the guy is all he did was fan the flames. He's at it again. Guess after years of irrelevance he has to get his name back out there. Pretty negative article just what we need to boost Rodger's trade value. Thanks butthead. Doubt the Packers would be this negative on Rodgers. Dude played through a broken thumb last year. They may be done but it would be for other reasons. Mainly financial. Also the fact that this team is not a championship roster anymore. Ran it back last couple of seasons and paid a heavy price. Team is trending in the wrong direction. It's time to clear cap space and start a mini rebuild process. If all goes well and Love is the man maybe we could be back in contention in a few years. With or without Rodgers this team isn't going anywhere next year. Guess that's the bottom line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NFLGURU Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Well, McGinn's article certainly could change the thought process in the darkness retreat. 😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying the FO isn’t ready to move on but adding all the emotion to it like he would know or that they would show any of those cards right now is not really credible. We’re officially in silly season and there is a good chance 12 is somewhere else next year but throwing out red hot “insider” takes while a guy is literally in the dark is bs as should be treated as such.
