Same people that bought them, outside of Mad, will be cheering wildly when Rodgers comes to Lambeau when he’s 52 years old, holding up an aging, toothless, drunken Brett Favre as they make their way to the 50 yard line.
hahahaha That's about the first time I've been accused of a "negative doom and gloom personality". Normally I get accused - justifiably - of being overly optimistic about things.
Somebody asked in a post I missed seeing until just now if I'd be satisfied with a 10-7 record. Sheeeesh, would any of ya'all? (yeah, I suppose some are pathetic enough that they would be). THAT to me is the definition of mediocrity - which as I've been saying, is what I see as the high end of what can be expected the next few years.
"didn't know Rodgers was going to be offered for a trade"? Basically yes. I found it hard to believe the Packer brass would be so all world STUPID to do that, but they were. Uh yeah, I don't know any more than "the next schmuck fan when/whether the Packers can put together a winning team post Rodgers" - nor any less. However, logic says, not Love or anybody else this side of Mahomes or Lamar Jackson is gonna come close to being as good as Aaron Rodgers was and likely still is going forward. I suppose the ya'all crowd disagrees with that, but that just makes them stupid and hateful.
It's a very thin thread of hope, of course, but the damn trade hasn't happened yet, and with extreme luck for the Packers, it might not - which would result in cancelling the prospective doom and gloom and bringing back greatness for a few more years ....... but then that probably won't happen. The haters and fools will get their wish, and Packer football will be in the toilet.
Tex, your opinion is not logic.
Saying that neither Love nor any other QB short of maybe Mahomes or L. Jackson, maybe throw in 1 or 2 others on the top level would come close to Aaron Rodgers going forward, THAT's not logical to you?
Wait a minute Tex. You’re saying 10-7 isn’t good enough for Love next year but 8-9 was good enough for Erron this past season? 10-7 would have been playoffs.
Let’s just totally forget the last time the Packers won the Super Bowl they were 10 -6.
Love: I'm saying 10-7 is about the absolute best that we could ever expect. Rodgers: the 8-9 miserable year this past season, of course, was tainted with injuries to Rodgers and the WRs, etc. Of course that ain't good enough. It shouldn't have happened, and it almost certainly wouldn't happen next year with Rodgers. And ya'all know how much I care about Super Bowls.
My point being that Rodgers most successful season came with a 10 and 6 record. Do you think he prefers the 15-1 season?
I think I prefer 15-1 or 14-3 or 13-4.
you don't get trophies for winning the regular season
Bullshit. They can win more than 10, and it's not even that difficult to imagine it happening in the next 2-3 years. It doesn't take a hall-of-fame QB to win more than 10. Plenty of examples of average QB play getting better records.
I'll concede it might not happen, but 10 wins is far, far, far from the "absolute best" we can expect.
Rodgers said the Packers told him “in so many words” that they were moving on. He added that they’ve been more direct with other players from what he was told.
What does “in so many words” mean? They probably told him they might not be able to out bid the competition for his guys services. That might have been enough for Rodgers to feel like he was disrespected.
The Packers are ready to move on though. They would have caved to all Rodgers demands like they did last year if they weren’t ready. Same way they stopped dealing with Favre when they didn’t need him anymore.
I haven’t seen a lot to get excited about with Love. But the Packers choosing to move on is a good sign. They must feel good about 10
I take it back. Love has good size, a big arm and average to above average athleticism for the position. So he has the tools. There is a little to be excited about.
If we luck into a 3rd straight 15 year HOF QB, listening the Bears fans 15 years from now (literally 45 straight years of getting their asses kicked) will be so great!
