AR wants out?!

[texaspackerbacker]

There's about 20 or so posts and a lot of silly shit since I last checked this thread last night. Kudos to Packers4Glory for having a couple of posts that were mostly islands of good sense in generally a sea of crap.

A lawyer objecting in a trial would sum it up best for most of what people are posting: "assuming facts not in evidence".

We’re dealing with a brat. The best thing to do is to kiss his ass to his face and then dig in because he has 3 years left on the deal. We’re never gonna have a QB who understands other peoples decisions but we sure might have 12 under center this year mostly because he doesn’t have the ability to do whatever he wants under the current contract he’s in.

12 is a great player but still human. Gute gonna have to put on his armor and deal with the star personality. We’ll see what happens.

or you're dealing with a GM who wants to put his franchise QB in his place starting pissing contests with him. It's all absurd. first you draft his replacement. you don't do anything to help the roster get better from the previous year. And then you cut a guy right after Rodgers praises him to the media. can you get a bigger fuck you to a player than what Gute did starting in the draft?

hahahahahaha Which icon of truth in the media came up with this one?

I think we know what will happen if Gute plays hardball... The petulant child will have to do an about face and realize that he signed a contract and has to live by it. This retirement talk is complete rubbish. Rodgers is not retiring right now.

Agree. I mean, give him space to save face abd be understanding that he’s human and has demands and expected to get his way. You don’t have to shut him down too harshly. But I do think you have to stand ground. If he does retire, so be it, just leave open an avenue for him to come back without retribution.

That Love pick is making a lot more sense now though. None of us knew how demanding Rodgers might be behind closed doors to run the team.

Ah yes, the legendary Jake Kumerow. He of the ...*squints eyes*....one reception since leaving the Packers.

[texaspackerbacker]

It’s funny though! Rodgers the player is legendary. The person is a little on the thick skulled and stubborn side. I feel about the same about him now as last year. You can see this being in his personality.

RG, as always, I will start this by saying, more often than not I like and agree with your posts and your take on things. The obvious comeback to what you say here, though, is: you know this how? Virtually 100% of the negativist shit attributed to Rodgers and his personality comes from (you guessed it) assholes in the media.

If you mean put in his place as getting under center and doing the job he is contractually obligated to do...then good for Gute. Rodgers is not the GM of the team. If he didn't like the GM, then he shouldn't have resigned for additional years.

Let's point out the hypocrisy....P4G says the GM should go all in and also criticizes Gute for not holding onto a JAG who was clearly not going to amount to anything.

[HarveyWallbangers]

I wonder how Malik Taylor feels about the latest twist. Kumerow was a JAG. I probably would have went with the better athlete too.

[King Friday]

Jake Kumerow? This is your titanic evidence of incompetence in the GB front office?

Team Rodgers is going to have to do a lot better than that.

[RashanGary]

You have to lean on your career personnel guys over the QB, don’t you? If Rodgers was running the show I’d have to think it would go to trash before long.

[Packers4Glory]

Ah yes, the legendary Jake Kumerow. He of the ...*squints eyes*....one reception since leaving the Packers.

I mean he isn't the greatest but he obviously developed a rapport with rodgers of sorts and he's certainly no worse than most of that group they kept.

but they did hold onto a JAG. and frankly I feel this is more PR being leaked by the team to make is sound absurd and to turn the fans to their side. certainly smells that way.

According to P4G (and Rodgers) Kumerow would be an All Pro by now if someone with half a brain could utilize his talent effectively.

This is why you leave talent evaluation to the professionals.

no that was the 2020 draft and the resigning of Aaron Jones (whom I love)
