    AND

    Then he'll ask them what their plans are with the veterans and inquire if they really want him back and allow that to get out, if not through his toolbag.

    Sharon is going to control the narrative; I don't think he's liked how Gutebag has tried to change it and he's going to turn that around soon imo
    Rodgers has zero need to leak anything. If the Packers begin shopping him, there are enough sources throughout the league that it will be widely reported even if he doesn't leak/say a word.

    As for the theme that people are "sick of his act", thats simply code for "sick of the results". I promise if we had just won the owl, no one would be sick of the act, we would just be praying he comes back.

      He is exactly one season off back to back MVP awards. How is that "well past his prime"?

        Give him the Cowboys line or the Niners/Chiefs weapons and he’d be fine again as a player.

        As a person - I see the world very similarly as AR.
        I agree with some of this except for the idea we haven't given him enough talent. He did in fact win 2 MVPs. This last season losing Adams clearly was a blow we weren't prepared for, but I blame injuries, particularily his thumb, more than anything else.

        • Seems like a couple of converts. The rest of ya'all that are still on the dark side are welcome anytime hahahaha.

          There's a lot not to like about Rodgers, even for me - the hippie shit, the fact that he gets paid so-o-o-o much, the recent bad season ...... wait, though, his "bad" season was still better than most QBs most of the time. If he's an asshole, he's OUR asshole who has brought us 15+ absolutely great years, and I fully expect him to bring us several more great seasons. We found out one year what Packer football was like when Rodgers was injured and out most of the season, and we found out what it's like when he was playing injured and less effective than normal last season. Is THAT what ya'all haters prefer?
          What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

            Watkins and Amari were terrible. Rooks were rooks. TE was not a threat. RBs are good/very good. Def underperformed until late season.

            Agreed on the thumb for sure. It was very different after the Giants game.

              In football years, and at his age, 1 year is well past his prime. Trade him.

                The OL was atrocious to start the season. Bakh and Jenkins settled in later and made it average.

                  If this is true, then right now you're not seeing anything at all.

                    This is not in any way scientific, because there aren’t a ton of NFL GMs and personnel people who hang around the Super Bowl. But Aaron Rodgers starts what he called a four-day darkness period in the pitch dark of a home, alone, today, and there was eyebrow-raising among a few league or team people I brought this up with, the reaction being: I can see why the Packers would consider trading him. Seems like a good person, but he might be more trouble than he’s worth. Not to the Jets.
                    I could see a team getting tired of the antics -- look at weirdo Russell Wilson -- and wonder if he's worth it. Obviously they tolerate it more when they win, but a season like the one they had brings on more scrutiny.

                    I'd also point out that there were an awful lot of times when the TV feed would show Rodgers, and he did not look like he was having fun out there -- too many times where he was mad about something or... lets call it moody body language. Maybe the TV crews are purposely looking for it to make it a story, but I don't recall this happening back in the mid 2010's. I think there's much more drama with Rodgers than 4-5 years ago.

                      Not sure if you are referring to me as a convert, but I assure you I want to trade Rodgers. Its simply the smart thing to do from a team standpoint. I just can't get onboard people being stupid.

                        But he still stunk up the Detroit play in game. My point about them giving him enough talent stems a career, not one season.

                          This is beyond silly. I get you hate ARod for entirely non football reasons, but your argument is devoid of.....anything. He is getting old for an athlete. He is past his physical peak. "well past his prime" is ridiculous.

                            • I am not dead set on a trade, but I think it's the better option if they can get good value.

                              Even if Rodgers comes into camp fit and slinging it like two years ago (possible but not guaranteed) his age and recent history put him at risk of another injury that derails the year.

                              In the end, I'd say take the risk that you can build a better team instead of putting everything on one player that didn't play well last year and might retire soon.

                              • I’ve been fine w/ the trade option but that’s really on AR. And he has said he wants to be a Packer - it’s why he signed the deal. So I think it’ll be return or retire.
