I must have missed what Donald said?

We’ve always said that the quarterback is the one that needs to take the pressure off everyone else.

If a guy runs the wrong route, it’s easy for the quarterback to say, ‘Hey, I told him to run that route’ than for the guy to be like, ‘Well, I ran the wrong route.’ Sometimes you ask Aaron to take the pressure off the guys so we won’t look bad, but he didn’t want to do that. He felt like if you did something bad, you do it.

But I think that’s the difference. You want that leadership, and I think sometimes you may not feel like you got it. You have to earn that respect at the end of the day, and I think that’s what Greg was probably referring to.

He’s a nice guy. I think that’s what you have to respect. I played with him five years so I was able to experience everything he went through. I saw when he first got drafted, he came in with a chip on his shoulder in that draft, and it shouldn’t have been Alex Smith [taken No. 1 overall]. That’s the way the guy is.

I’ve always told Aaron, ‘Don’t forget where you come from because the people are the ones who put you on that pedestal. You didn’t put yourself there.’ I think that’s what we learning now. I’m not saying he’s a bad guy, I think he’s a great guy. I’m friends with Aaron.”

That's why he should get the most criticism when he plays like butt week after week. It's all justified.

Hopefully he'll continue stepping up. Who else is going to step up? It needs to be more than just Aaron Rodgers, even if he was playing at his normal level.

I believe everyone has a share of the blame, but being the leader of the team and the offense Rodgers needs to be able to rally the team. I believe Rodgers is a better overall QB than Brady talent-wise, but Brady given the opportunities we had in our losses I personally believe would have won us 2 of them and possibly 3.

I said it before and I'll say it again. This team lacks leaders on the sidelines and the coaches fail to motivate the troops. It is sad. Eye rolls and acting like a sulky Jay Cutler doesn't rally the troops.
