It’s perfectly fine to say Aaron Rodgers did a lot for GB, and he’s one of the greatest to ever do it. it’s also fine to say the past few years he’s been a prick. And since it’s new , it’s ok to be upset. We can be upset at him now but appreciate him overall ( and we should) When Favre left for the Jets, I felt the same way - "MAN did he do great things, but it was time, I can't wait to see how Rodgers does!" Wash, rinse, repeat 15 yrs later. The only problem is subsequent behavior by the players (it's amazing how Rodgers seemed to view Favre as doing it wrong but then decided to follow a remarkably similar path) soured the outlook a little, and then having a never-ending debate with troll fans/sycophants put a rocket on the "f that guy" sentiment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These dudes don't have to walk on eggshells anymore and, as a result, they won't play tight every ******* snap of the season. 10 wins, minimum. Schedule is soft AF too, and I have more faith than many that MLF is actually a pretty solid coach. My take on coaching in the NFL is if your team has the fundamentals (of both football and scheme) down and doesn't beat itself with stupid mistakes, that's .500 right there. I think MLF can get a team to at least not beat themselves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was the early Aaron, a team player, who was the brainiac QB who scared safeties, and could throw the ball through impossibly tight windows. That guy I loved. Then there was the late Aaron, with the inflated ego, bucked the coaches, talked about the performances of his teammates, promoted himself to assistant GM, and pouted on the field when things didn't go right. That guy I hated. Bring on Love! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it's a minority view but I adore those yellow and blue throwbacks. Someday I may actually get one; thinking I'd either go Woodson or Hutson. Maybe really go deep and get a Hinkle (one of the unjustly forgotten GB greats) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a Woodson Powerball jersey, and a Rodgers gold shoulder. I want to get one of the current throwbacks, but I'm not sure who's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've considered Quay Walker just because I love #7 for a LB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are you under 5 years old I'll give you a pass. Once you reach like 20 years old that behavior is problematic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hitnhope Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 So you are ignoring the WR, and 2 OL versus the Packers drafts other than QB over the last 10 years of none. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Hacket going to the Jets, that translates to using many of schemes from Matt's and Hackets 3 years here over there, and Cobb and Lazard have experience with those schemes, so not only does it help AR, but they can help the jets other receivers, it's not that those receivers are top tier talent, it's about chemistry with Rodgers.

Bakhtiari is a possible, and Alexander if he continues to play the way he has are the two that come to mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
