They absolutely were not making that move - the media **** storm that would have caused would have made no logical sense. Especially if both sides knew the beginning of the end was already somewhat felt.
Once again, if they felt Love presented them with a better chance of winning they should have made the switch and made it known that Rodgers had a broken thumb much earlier. Obviously they still believed Rodgers was the better option.
The key being that is what they "felt." I think they were probably wrong and they may have even convinced themselves of Rodgers being the better option because of the upset it would have caused. imho. I do think it has worked out better for us this way though.
The Packers nearly making the playoffs because of a four game winning streak strongly suggests it was the correct decision to play Rodgers.
While I understand what you mean I don't see it that way at all...they hitched their 2021 and 2022 to Rodgers tail...as long as we were not eliminated they were seeing that through...they owed him that much one could argue as well.
As long as the Packers weren't eliminated they played the quarterback providing them with the best chance to win.
Just my mere suggestion of playing Love those last 5 games in 2022, brought a ton of flack from posters. With many of them implying that it would be "tanking". I imagine the FO and MLF felt the same and thus wanted to keep playing starters, until mathematically eliminated.
You took some heat for suggesting to play Love because you didn't care about winning those games. You never suggested Love would present a better option compared to Rodgers playing with a broken thumb.
Do you have a quote from MLF saying that? Otherwise you are speculating.
I don't need a quote from MLF, he decided to start Rodgers every single game.
Your behavior indicates that you cannot stand it when people have a different opinion from you. Look at the above quotes, in which you repeat basically the same thing over and over in the same post, despite the fact that multiple people have pointed out other valid possible reasons as to why the Packers might not have wanted to start Love over Rodgers and his broken thumb last season.
You completely misunderstand me voicing a different opinion as not being able to deal with someone disagreeing with me. Just because there are several posters expressing a similar opinion doesn't mean it is any more legit than mine though.
You make really long posts in which you try to present your opinion or speculation as "facts", you nitpick and take things out of context, you repeat things without actually addressing the valid points other people raise, and when your errors/contradictions are pointed out you don't quote them and hope nobody notices. All of that to try to overwhelm people into not responding so that you can "win" the argument.
That is truly utter nonsense.
You were also convinced last year that Crosby didn't have the leg strength to hit a 50-something yard FG, but he proved you wrong with the 56-yarder against the Vikings.
True, I didn't think Crosby was able to make a 50+ yards field goal anymore. That has absolutely nothing to do with it being common sense that a broken thumb on the throwing hand negatively affects the performance of a quarterback. It's truly mind-boggling anyone would suggest differently.
