2021 NFL Season Thread Football • Page 552

Again that’s Ted Thompson

Our current GM drafted Jaire Alexander Darnell Savage and signed Adrian Amos

I don’t see Rodgers beef with the current GM

 

Josh Jackson? Yeah so that didn’t work out but no GM hits 100%

he’s done a great job of cleaning up the mess McCarthy and Thompson made the prior few seasons before 2018

 

You’re in denial and that’s okay.

But the Packers are going straight to rebuild mode if Rodgers leaves lol. They would definitely not win the NFC North.

have you ever seen football without Aaron Rodgers or Brett Favre? Let me tell you FIRST HAND that “fine” drafts do not give you winning seasons without a QB like that

 

Might be personal. Might be tied to the fact that the only WR with any potential that's been drafted is a guy some teams didnt even view as a receiver

 

MVS is a WR3 at best right now - Rodgers also has Lazard who is pretty decent too
And of course Aaron Jones

 

Allen Lazard, another fatal mistake made by DaveCaldwell. loved that guy.

 

There’s definitely an argument for more weapons but I think the extent that the narrative has gone is a big stretch.

 

The NFC north sucks man haha

 

...there are other ways to build an offense then just drafting WRs or RBs or TEs in the first round. It clearly hasn't been THAT bad if the Packers are always in the top 10 of offenses.

 

Rodgers is a whiny baby. The Packers had a bad 2020 draft.

Both can be true

 

I’m not saying that Rodgers is wrong in his criticism but he’s going about it the wrong way - especially to a GM who’s built a team that’s gone 26-6 the past two seasons

I don’t see Denver as a better situation for Rodgers and the Packers still have plenty of talent to go deep in the NFC

 

yeah but the recent context still makes it an insult hahaha

like if somebody called someone else Michael Jackson... chances are it’s a dig at something that Jackson was controversial about, rather than actually calling them a ridiculously talented artist / dancer haha

one hundred percent agree.

 

I mean it’s way too early to judge the 2020 draft for any NFL team

 

Yeah but they should have tried it at least once!

 

2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc... the Packers are in the top ten cause of Rodgers entirely

 

Its actually hard to fathom what the hell they were doing in Rd 1 and 2 in 2020 right now...

Trade up to take a QB who you now have no intention of playing. Take a RB who wont see more than 20% of snaps in his 2nd year.

edit: Hell, the TE they took in the 3rd didnt matter because Tonyan played all the downs. They basically didnt leave the top 150 picks with anyone that would matter in 2020

 

The Packers have way more talent than Brady ever had in those last few years in New England haha

 

they’ve gone 26-6 mostly because of Aaron though lol

 

I think we're all glancing over the Kumerow thing more than we should. Aaron liked a guy and they got rid of him and he is like free. They easily could've kept him. It's a lot of little things like that and also THEY DRAFTED HIS REPLACEMENT AND HE WENT OUT AND WON MVP.

It's just a fucking weak take to hate on Rodgers. Idc if he wants to leave the Packers because he hates the color green all of the sudden. He's a human being, a person, and I will support that over an organization, a money printing machine, every time.

 

Also Rodgers definitely has had the benefit of never having to doubt himself and he definitely comes off like an extremely cocky douche bag hahah.

like I could see how the GB front office is coming to his house pathetically and he lets them in... but just so he can talk shit to them and reject them over and over, because he’s too egotistical to ever rethink something through someone else’s perspective

 

That’s unfair - if Rodgers doesn’t have Adams or Jones or Tonyan or David Bakhtiari he doesn’t produce those numbers

 

They got rid of him cuz he fucking sucked at WR lol

look I see both sides - Rodgers definitely has valid criticisms he’s just going about it in the worst way possible

 

???

 

I know you’re comfortable thinking that -

The Bears and Vikings would be the Packers’ mom and dad if they didn’t have Rodgers

 

The guy with the most touchdowns by a TE in 2020 lol
