I think he handled that question the way he should. Let's hope the team rallies around that sentiment for him, and their own play.
To me it's rather obvious they have been. When all the pundits and other fans were talking Rodgers alienating, players quitting on coaches etc, this team never quit. If they wanted to, they had plenty of opportunity to just cash it in for next year.

and despite how poorly things went at times, nobody ever quit. They kept working, they kept pushing, they kept trying to bring it together. Every year it seems they try and pin all the crap on Rodgers despite all the visual evidence to the contrary. and again this year, same thing. Seriously, this team was dead in the water 6 weeks ago. Teams with no leadership crumble.

I thought it post game on the field, you could see the genuine joy and happiness for what Nixon has done for this team, what the defense has been able to start to turn around and then what they put on the Vikings and still recognizes he and the offense can do better.

I think Rodgers is playing better now than earlier. And you are right. Nobody ever quit.

I haven't heard anything about Blu for a long time. She might just have been a friend with benefits, or something else. He seems to drift away from things he's not around for a while.

Smith is an borderline basketball player, who didn't have the skills to be of any value. If anyone knows what it is to be a failure, he does. That's why he likes to paint everyone as a failure, because it makes him feel like he's better than what he really is. Listening to him is like listening to the sound of chalk scraping on a blackboard.

When doesn’t Stephen A go off o people?
Exactly. I don’t always agree with Stephen A. However he’s entertaining to watch. Love the way he uses theatrics to express his opinion. Maybe not how I would express it, but he is correct about Aaron needing to express it on the field first. The Media is just relentless so he’s just being accommodating. Rodgers really does try to be nice. Lol

I don't mind Stephan A. He is like most on air guys, a lot of pumped up volume and opinions. He has always backed Rodgers and like some of us feel, he is a bit disappointed in him. I'll take him any day over Skip Dickless or Cowturd any day.

I used to like to listen to Jim Rome, but kind of stopped listening/watching most radio sport shows.

That is his shtick. If these people just evaluated on an even keel they would be considered boring and draw no one's attention. Very few of these pundits are positive and uplifting today. The one that sticks in my mind who never had anything good to say about anyone was Jim Rome.

I still remember when Rome was calling Jim Everett, Chris. Over and over just to be the tiny ***** he is and try and get a rise out of him. I’m surprised he’s still on anything. He belongs with the Rest of them.

They could be even keel, if they had anything g to offer in the way of explaining game or strategy or anything of substance. But they don’t, so they fluff for a living.

Well said. I think Rome got away with more of it on radio when his audience was more random and he could not be seen.
