    QB Leverage

    Don't know if you caught this early in the week, but we had two developments on QB's career always end badly front.

    1. Ben Rothsliesberger is going straight down Favre St. by telling the press he will take time this offseason to "if there’s going to be a next season".

    2. Aaron Rodgers said he hoped the Packers would be all in for next season. "I think I have a number of years left in me (where) I can play at a high level. We’ve just got to make sure we’re going all-in every year to win. And I think we can take a big step this offseason."

    Ben is reportedly mad at Todd Haley and another loss to the Patriots. Rodgers not sure. Might be talking about Cook or Lang. My money would be on a FA signing like Peppers or Cook for Defense.

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

      Yeah, but there are a lot of moving parts on offense. 3 O lineman and his TE need to be signed or replaced.

        Which is why it is reload, not rebuild. Our O as it stands is top 5 and will be going forward, unless we can't adjust to increased quick pressure that was shown to be a bit of an achilles heel for Arod.

          Cook will re-sign because he likes to be on a winning team. Seems like we replace Oline like light bulbs what we can't do is stop the pass, at all. Need a vet CB to sign here or two. Shields needs to decide if his headaches will continue, I think they will, and that means we need two starters.

            AR's "all-in" is a not so subtle shot across TT's bow for not being active in FA. about having a team full of rookies or inexperienced 2nd year players on the field. he wants another SB.

            ALL-IN

              That's how it reads to many members of this board, not sure Rodgers feels exactly as you do seeing as how his year was measurably improved by Cook.

              Agree he wants another Super Bowl.

                I thought Rodgers' "reload" comment vs "rebuild" was about resigning their own, considering there are a lot.

                Maybe I'm oblivious, but I didn't think his comments were a shot at anyone, more like a reminder that they're better than their four game losing streak showed, and that adding more talent (e.g. resigning, draft, FA) will only help them get better.

                  I think this is probably closer to it, but this is the time of year to be a conspiracy theorist.

                    you don't think he would like to see some Cook types at other positions where they're sub-par? 'all-in to win' isn't aimed at the coaches. it's not aimed at the players. it could ONLY be aimed at TT who's consumed by saving money...cheap and young.

                      It could easily be aimed at players. All in on the offseason, improving their craft. The team had a lot of first/second year players in significant roles. For the Packers to take the next step, they need these players to be ALL IN.

                      Makes more sense than a veiled shot at TT.

                        I think it was a nudge at TT. I suspect he was trying to send a message of "You saw what signing Cook did for the offense? We need that for the defense."

                          I took it to mean FA as well. It's got to be frustrating to see the defense let them down every year.

                            RODGERS USED RELOAD THREE TIMES IN TWO MINUTES....noted NOT REBUILD..........

                            This was clearly a call out to TT to be Elway Like during free agency and use all avenues to get this team to the top
                            TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER

                              Somebody needs to give Ted a wake up call. Who better than the REASON for any and all success both Ted and Mike have had?
