    I must say that in terms of leadership, Rodgers is really not getting it done. His petulant body language, his languishing on the sideline and not pumping up his teammates, is getting really old. I'd like to see him go up to a guy who dropped a ball and smile and put his arm around the guy, let him know that everyone makes mistakes, instead of gesturing angrily or looking into the sky as if Thor and only Thor could understand the poor bastard's having to put up with these mere mortals.

    I'd like to see how things would go if a receiver would gesture angrily at Rodgers after he misses an easy touchdown throw.

    Yeah, the non verbal communication is pretty obvious. Can only hope some of it was actually self directed for some of the shit he was slinging.

    I'd estimate 3-4 feet and closing in. His throw was not physically impeded, his line of sight was clear. He was hit after he threw....welcome to the NFL.

    +1000. These obvious signs of poor leadership certainly don't strengthen his case as being an all time great.

    Funny, before I read your comment, I saw the animated gif and thought you might be making a comment about the conversation going around in circles. Will it go round in circles?

    Signs of displeasure means someone is not an all-time great: Brett Favre, Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, Dan Marino and Jim Kelly

    Other side of coin: Joe Montana and Ken Anderson

    Hardly seems dispositive.

    Well, maybe its just me but if I were in the locker room, I would tend to believe the League MVP rather than a second year wideout. So if the second year wideout threw a fit, he's going to get taken down a peg long before the QB does. The WR's don't have enough pelts on the wall.

    The coaches might have to back him off his high horse if that indeed is a problem, but McCarthy has had to do that before.

    Sports radio today, top reason for Aaron Rodgers disappointing performance:
    1. Olivia Munn
    2. Olivia Munn is crazy (apparently an actual rumor somewhere)
    3. Olivia Munn pre-marital sex
    4. No security blanket
    5. No team is playing Cover 2 (actually this is my favorite because its wrong in both directions-Packers haven't done well against it and teams are playing it as they do not fear the running game)

    On field demonstrations of frustrations would be #6 for me.

    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    My sympathy level for Rodgers is cratering.

    He doesn't need sympathy. His life is pretty great.

    He just needs a reasonable look at why from fans. As you yourself have said, there are multiple culprits. Only when two or more of them get their job squared away, things will turn around.

    I look forward to Randall Cobb striking this pose as the deep man in the Victory formation soon.

    You guys all know my Badger Bias, well except for Tolzien, because he sucked as a Badger..........but.....was this just me or did anybody else see the same thing ????

    Abby roasts a guy down the sidelines and with a well thrown ball he walks in for a Touchdown.
    Instead of a well thrown Ball, Rodgers throws it clearly behind Abby, who has to turn his entire body to make the catch and gets laid out by somebody who messed up his ribs good.

    Right after this occurred, it appeared Rodgers was motioning with some anger that Abby should have caught the ball, turned it upfield, and scored but the throw seemed too far behind him to do so

    Replay kept going back to AROD who seemed to be frustrated the WR didn't turn this up for a TD...meanwhile ....the WR was laid out to dry and pummeled

    Did anybody else see it this way ?
    LIFE IS ABOUT CHAMPIONSHIPS; I JUST REALIZED THIS. The MILWAUKEE BUCKS have won the same number of championships over the past 50 years as the Green Bay Packers. Ten years from now, who will have more championships, and who will be the fart in the wind ?

    I thought Rodgers was pissed at himself for a throw that got his new favorite WR blasted.
