Except for a couple freak plays, MM & Rodgers didn't make the Packers a very good team this year. Until they can prove this year was an oddity, and not the beginning of a new era in Green Bay, they will receive little or no respect from commentators. A single playoff win against a team that didn't deserve to be in the playoffs didn't do much to change impressions that were formed over the Packers last 10 regular season games.
That's a relative scale. Packers did as much if not more than the Vikes or Bengals.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
