Rodgers reportedly disgruntled, does not want to return to the Packers

I thought I knew when to hold em, but the store security said apparently I didn`t as they escorted me from the shop.

That will teach you not to do your shopping at a strip club!

I was merely doing an audit.

Sure it wasn't a....strip search?

This could come across as implying the guy is dumb

What is dumb is a member of the forum repeatedly trying to engage another who CLEARLY has them on ignore, and everybody knows it. JMHO

Tell you what, I’ll simply send all of my posts to you for approval, since you want to enforce what I say so much.

As I have mentioned before, 9/10 times I don’t look at who is posting. I read, I respond, that simple. The poster I quoted said something that was stupid. I said so. I did not say the poster was stupid, just that the content of what they said in that specific instance was. Some of you take this way too personally. I can promise you I really don’t care about anybody here (except for Mondio, he’s cool). I’m not trying to push any buttons, or get approval from anybody, I say what I think, and nothing else. Again, none of this is personal.

Sorry, I have you on ignore. Have a great day though.

The Packers have no chance of winning a Super Bowl with Love or Bortles. None. By not trading Rodgers now you force him to choose between retirement or playing for the Packers. And if he calls their hand and sits out 2021 they can still cash in before the 2022 draft.

But Rodgers is not going to sit out the season.

I'm a little concerned about the idea of a half-hearted Rodgers playing. Seems like such situations often lead to injury, and then that damages his trade value.

I don't agree the Packers have zero chance to win the Super Bowl with Love. We haven't even seen him play yet. If you say zero chance of winning the Super Bowl this year, okay. But down the road, I'm not willing to rule that out.

Jordan Love is loving OTA's. Loved MLF's comment at the end, of course, what else is he going to say?

I'm not going to get overly optimistic about Love, but I am anxious to see him play in Preseason.

Jordan obviously needed time to smooth out the technical edges. But one thing he doesn’t lack is confidence in himself and a strong work ethic.
Too many young QB’s get thrown in the game too early. Even Aaron Rodgers was very average his first season and that’s with more college work and 3 seasons learning under another MVP in Favre.
I don’t expect Jordan to play at a high level in his 2nd season (with mostly virtual work in his redshirt season). But this has been good for him to understand that he needs to be ready because he could start earlier than expected. He’s going to struggle like anyone would out of the gate. But I have confidence in him because I don’t think his Sophomore college season was a fluke. Once he gets in a rhythm he just plays natural.

I’m also excited to see him get some live work in this year.

Him saying that is premature at best. You can take cheap shots at any Rookie QB other than maybe a #1 overall type. But the reality is it just shows me how little one understands player development. I think people are still disappointed in this QB turmoil, it is something we’ve not dealt with for a long time. It’s a defense mechanism used to try to deal with the discouraging news that our starter won’t report and there’s internal conflict. This is no different than any other family dispute.

It’ll all buff out.

 

[Phil Young]

Family is right & we are washing our dirty linen in public.

I work with some NFL fans not many over here but those that know the game may follow other teams BUT have MASSIVE respect for Green Bay

I think waiting until 2022 is almost the best of both worlds. It sends the message to Rodgers and other players, that there is a cost to play that game with them. However, that expense is minimal for the Packers, since Rodgers wouldn't have played for them in 2021 anyway AND they now have more teams to bid on him and an actual idea of what the 2022 picks being offered are actually worth. They also get the benefit of saving on having to pay him, so big cap and cash savings.

This is what the smart people are saying.

I meant for 2021. As for Bortles, we know what he is. He stinks. Jacksonville had no interest in him any longer. That speaks volumes.

And Love could not beat out Tim Boyle in 2020 to be a backup to Rodgers. He might be decent someday but a Super Bowl is not in his cards for the 2021 season unless it's as a clipboard holder for Aaron Rodgers.

The optimistic Packer Fan in me would want to think that a 2021Rodgerless Packer team might make the playoffs. However, the realist in me wouldn't bet on them to win more than 5 or 6 games.

To be fair, I think Boyle is fully capable of being a starter and putting up Dalton-like numbers with the right team. The plan for 2020 was never to have Love be #2 because his job was to sit, observe, and study. Bortles is nothing more than an emergency backup plan in case Rodgers doesn't return

With A Rodgerless Love (sounds like a novel )
I think Love would go 6-7 Wins with last years level Defense (partly because I see our schedule as tougher than last season) If we can get a little improvement as a whole on D and crack the top 10 in scoring etc... I could see either an 8-8 or 9-7 type rookie season.

The Rodgers stuff is getting stale, can someone start a thread on "Will Davante be a hold out in training camp?!" That's gonna be where the action is!

You are right, Bucks series with the Nets starts! Will Bucks team owner Aaron Rodgers show up? Inquiry minds want to know! Rumor has it that Aaron is upset at Bucks mascot Bango for not asking him if it was OK to dance with another mascot....stay tuned.

 

[PackerDNA]

The only on workable option I see is a kick the can down the road one.Do they get Rodgers to come in and play tis year under the same circumstances?
Then going to be right where we are now a year from now?

 

[longtimefan]

Hooray?

Maybe it already started? Lol

See anything new?

Interesting take

Packers' potential trade haul, cash/cap gains support calling Aaron Rodgers' bluff - ProFootballTalk

As the Packers prepare for next week’s mandatory minicamp, they don’t know whether quarterback Aaron Rodgers will attend. If he does, it likely means he’ll attend training camp and play for the Packers in 2021. (There’s still a chance he’ll show up for mandatory minicamp and then hold out, like...
