Part II

[Pacopete4]

I really wish I had the optimism u did, I just cant see it... time will tell I guess

[bobblehead]

Because its stupid Red...

He missed the optional practices.. Big F'in whoop.

There is still time.

It's not like they've been practicing daily and are about to start games tomorrow.

No, they're about to start getting in shape in about two weeks, and start practicing in pads in another 3 or 4. Gimme a break. He hasn't missed anything of importance to this point.

With that said, he has competed in years past (not really), and shouldn't be afraid to do it again.

MM has grabbed the riegns on this team by holding all the veterans accountable and ensuring they show up at minis, if he folds on this one good luck next year when barnet, jenkins, kampman, ect decide they don't want to show.

If he blows it and we lose out because our QB is really bad you get to hold MM and TT accountable just like they are holding brett accountable right now. BUT, at this moment they get to make the call and they aren't caving, they are doing what they believe is best for the green bay packers which also coincides with what they believe is best for their career.

In the past all I heard was "if rogers was better MM would play him". Well, now he is and everyone thinks he got stupid all of a sudden.

[quote="JustinHarrell"]If the Packers bomb without Brett, TT and MM will likely lose their jobs within a year or two.

Well TT and MM better start sticking money away,because after this season they will be unemployed.

Brohm and Flynn are not even the roster.

Two weeks ago I was telling my Dad who lives in Wisconsin how Flynn has the least pressure on to make the roster.

Things change.

Why in the blue hell would you think Flynn has the least pressure to make the roster? A 7th round pick should always be worried about making the roster.

I think his thinking was that they have 3 QB's.. and 3 QB's are going to be on this team and a week ago, Favre wasn't an issue which left him at #3, easily....

True, but what if the Packers brought in a veteran to sit behind Rodgers and help him out. We're not cutting Brohm, so Flynn would go to the practice squad and probably be gone from the Packers.

I think this is where we are at. The Packers have someone they'd rather start at QB. It's hard to imagine with all of the great years of Brett, but this organization takes him back if they think he's the clear upgrade. They obviously don't. They're going with Rodgers because they think it's right, not becasue every fan agrees. Fans don't have to agree with everything. TT has said that many times.

Listen, honestly, don't sound ignorant. Brett is a clear upgrade for the next year or two. No doubt. Now your argument may have some leverage if you say Rodgers is the upgrade for the next decade. There's no way Rodgers is a better QB than Favre right now, or next year for that matter.

If I had any money, I'd be laying a bet down about now. TT and M3 are not going to lose their jobs even if the Pack bombs this season. The fans may be crying, but they will be fine.

[Pacopete4]

Ya, I think they are banking on Arod to be the guy for a long time coming... boy thats a lot to ask especially since we just had a QB that never missed a game... luck runs out sooner or later

I dont' know what will happen, but I think Rodgers is going to make you eat your words. Not in a bad way, but I think he's going to be everything Brett was last year at age 38. I don't think the Packers would move on if they didn't think he gave them the best chance. 12 mil is not that much for just a year to year deal. The Packers are confident in their guy. I think that much is obvious by their actions.

[Pacopete4]

Back to how bad the interview was... why didnt she ask him:

Hey if the Packers ask you back week 4 if Arod is hurt, would you?

[PackerTimer]

God you've said some dumb shit over the last few days. I find it hard to believe you're a Packer fan. We've had to listen to idiots essentially root for three years for the Packers to fail because for some reason they don't like TT. Guess what, you were wrong then and you'll be wrong if you continue to believe he'll fail. This organization is in good hands. Brett Favre had to go sometime. I'm glad we've got somebody who knows what he's doing and won't let the inmates run the asylum like you would.

If that were true then why weren't they completely moved on when they went to Brett's after he already retired?

Fair enough. Good answer.

I think they felt it was close. Brett played well enough last year to clearly get his job back. He gave it up though and someone took it. The Packers are comfortable with the change. If they thought they needed Brett he'd be on the starting QB right now.

[Lurker64]

If they play as well as Favre did at 38.. whats the problem? I could totally understand if he was shitty last year, but he wasnt..

The problem is that with Favre back annointed at the starter, you have to hand 52 guys new playbooks, since McCarthy already installed the offense in minicamp and the offense for Rodgers is different than the offense for Favre.

Quarterback is not just an interchangeable part, you can't just show up because you know some plays, everybody else has to be on the same page as you or nothing happens.
