See how great A-Gawd is? Still winning the division regularly with incompetence everywhere. Damn, what does this have to say for my Lions?
Lions have only one playoff win in like 50 years or some shyt. So nothing to do with this situation.

As far as Rodgers, to me he always has come off as the smuggest dude in the field. Pure arrogance.

Greg Jennings has come off as a bytch the past few years in the media, and he somewhat seems like one in this article.

However, if that comment during the game is true with Rodgers telling his opponent that they should sign Jennings, I get why Jennings felt disrespected.


The QB is the leader of the team, but I find it hard not to put most of the blame on McCarthy and Thompson. Terrible coaching and didn't get Rodgers some elite weapons.

He's told that story before (or someone else has). I know I've heard it in the past.

If we're keeping it a buck though, he didn't do shyt after he left GB. :manny:

MM is a ho and he needs to let this shyt go. You are the most overrated coach in NFL history. You don't have a job because nobody else has an Aaron Rodgers for you to borrow.

Your legacy is defined. You have a sub 500 record when Aaron Rodgers is hurt, despite the rest of the roster being intact. Your defenses routinely rank at the bottom.

You are not a fukkn realist. You thought AJ Hawk was a starting linebacker.
:wow:

The cold front of complacency swept on through northeastern Wisconsin every single time the Packers fell just shy of another Lombardi Trophy.

After the Giants stunned those 15-1 Packers.

After Colin Kaepernick zapped their defense (twice).

After the Seattle meltdown.

After an NFC title game blowout loss in Atlanta.

Every time, the general manager who oversaw the team from 2005 to 2017 did...nothing. Or close to nothing. That's what the ones banging the table for both Rodgers and McCarthy stress. They point to Ted Thompson sticking his head in the sand every offseason. To his ignoring the building tension between the two men he brought together to lead his franchise. And to how his stubborn reluctance to sign veterans, despite the rising salary cap, made life more difficult for both.


As one player put it, Thompson assumed the Packers system was automatic and he could just plug cheap rookies in.

In the process, the Packers lost the leaders that Rodgers and McCarthy never were, never would be, and they never found replacements.

Gone were gnarly, take-no-prisoners guards Josh Sitton (a Packer from 2008 to 2015) and T.J. Lang (2009-2016). Both were never afraid to speak their minds. Gone was fullback John Kuhn (2007-2015), who several players cite as a major vocal leader. Gone were all those receivers. Gone were defensive tackle Ryan Pickett (2006-2013) and defensive back Charles Woodson (2006-2012). Gone was defensive tackle B.J. Raji (2009-2015), who one player claims held everyone accountable on defense. Thompson lowballed Raji, choosing instead to pay big money to fire-breathing defensive tackle Mike Daniels. While Daniels has been hell-bent on trashing Green Bay's "soft" label, one teammate says guys are turned off by his "hypocritical leadership."

Thompson wanted the Packers to stay young. In the process, he gutted the team of its heart and soul.

It got so bad, one player says, that offensive and defensive players almost never hung out off the field. Camaraderie was shot.

"Guys really started feeling like, 'I can't get paid here,'" one player says. "How are you letting certain guys walk who proved themselves?"

The leadership exodus pushed Rodgers further and further into an ill-fitting role. He never had to worry about speaking up back in 2010 or 2011. He played football. That's what he prefers. Multiple sources say Rodgers misses those days, with one adding he's become worn down and bitter about everyone's expectations of the type of leader he should be. In other words, as a former Packers scout puts it, Rodgers "is Brett Favre 2.0. He used to say, 'Oh, I'll never be like that guy.' And he literally is." :smugfavre:


That part about plug and play is what fukk the packers, people they should have kept they didn’t, and people they didn’t need they gave contracts to, the difference with them and ne, ne identified people they knew they needed and who they could get to do the job cheaper or younger
Also mike not being real about needing certain talent, was a big factor too

I’m not saying A-Rod isn’t absolved, because he was doing his fair share
