AR wants out?!

[Teamcheez1]

Shannon Sharp said it best. You each go out to Cal to meet with Aaron reassuring him, “hey you’re our guy.” But you can’t even call him to tell him you’re drafting Jordan Love? Crazy.

The Packers don’t need to ever call Rodgers and tell him who they’re drafting or any other personnel move for that matter.

If the Packers were true to their board which given Gute is a disciple of TT then I'm guessing that was the case and they weren't planning on taking a QB in the first round but BPA. However if Love was rated top 10 on their board and fell to a spot where Gute felt compelled to try and trade up to get him, it probably happened pretty quickly. Maybe his first thought wasn't to call his HOF QB before finalizing the trade and the pick and I can understand that.

It's still Gute's mistake but I think Rodger's actions aren't entirely justified. Guess this means it's the proverbial straw that broke the camels back.

I put together a guide for you, hope it helps

Claim favorable to Rodgers = 100% truth
Claim that makes Rodgers look bad = leak from the organization with the underlying claim fabricated to insult Rodgers personality and/or personnel evaluating skills or fake news media lies and propaganda

FIFY.

LOL

"Appeal to Authority" as a tool of argumentation should include, you know, an authority.

The Packers are in a pretty good spot with Rodgers contract and that’s probably a big part of Rodgers problem.

Absolutely. Tom Brady getting everything he wants is eating at Rodgers to no end. However, Rodgers is going to have to look in the mirror and realize Tom didn't get his way until well past the age of 40 and after he won 6 rings. Even Tom Fucking Brady had to wait his turn.

Aaron has 2 choices. Continue his career in Green Bay, or go into permanent retirement from football. I think I know which path he'll choose.

Good take.

I do think the obvious move here is you trade Jordan Love. It's a no brainer to be honest. The odds of Jordan Love being a star are minimal.

You might be a shitty leader

[Packers4Glory]

Look. The team isn’t being honest. Rodgers wasn’t their guy. That’s why we have Love. Rodgers play the a huge wrench into the plan. So now its PR & BS.

2020 draft is proof positive they weren’t going all in with Rodgers. They were betting on the under & building for life after Rodgers. Just admit it. Based on his contract 2022 was a time were they Could move on if they wanted. That gave Love 2 years of understudy in MLF’s offense. You don’t need to be Sherlock Holmes to see what the plan was.

There are maybe 9 quarterbacks who have a chance at HOF careers right now and maybe more.

Brady, Mahommes, Wilson, Rodgers, Ben

Watson, Herbert, Allen, Stafford, Ryan

Burrow, etc...


I hate to say it, but I think the Packers brass thinks they can find another HOF QB. Even if not Love, they’ll get chances at top picks if they were to have losing seasons. They’re not as rare as they seem.

I don’t think Rodgers has as much leverage as he thinks he has to force his hand. The Packers believe in letting GMs have their say and believe a good GM will find the right QB. I just don’t see this going the way Rodgers wants.

Love reading Terry Bradshaw ripping on Rodgers.

Wolf (Favre)

Have done really well with the QB position. There is no saying Gutekunst can’t add his name to that list too. Like I said, there are a lot of Great QBs and a lot of SB winning QBs too. Rodgers isn’t a unicorn who’s ass you have to kiss. I just don’t buy into the notion that a great GM can’t find a QB when so many are out there.

[RashanGary]

If the decision is to give up the organizational belief in a GM who can find a QB or get three more years out of Rodgers and blow up the organization in doing it.... I’m ok with sticking by the organizational guns and letting Rodgers retire (his only option if he won’t play in GB)

[RashanGary]

Good take.

CMI, you’re smart. You’ve followed Rodgers career and the history of the Packers more in depth than any of the national news guys. You can, we all can... come up with our own views of this that are as clear or clearer than the national guys. I’m not saying that’s a bad take. I’ll give Eisen credit for sounding more clear and persuasive than average people.... but when it comes to knowledgeable view points, I’m taking a bunch of the guys at this forum over any national media member.

There’s a time to trust professionals and there’s a time to use your own noggan. This is one of the times where you can trust your own noggan. In fact, rather than hearing you parrot another guys opinion, I’m more interested in what you think here than most national guys. You are a professional at this. Just come up with your own view and adjust from there. That’s why this place is better than national media when it comes to Packer view points.

No more evidence Gute will succeed in adding his name to that list then failing. No evidence Gute is a great GM yet either...just saying koolaidman )))
