I continue to be impressed by how McCarthy is keeping this team focused on winning the game. Hopefully, it will carry over into next week down in Dallas.

GREEN BAY Aaron Rodgers is doing his homework leading up to his first appearance in the Super Bowl.

Besides studying up on the Steelers, the Green Bay Packers quarterback has reached out to other quarterbacks who have played in the Super Bowl to see what he should expect next week.

The Packers (13-6) will meet the Steelers (14-4) in Super Bowl XLV at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

One of players whose brain Rodgers wanted to pick was Kurt Warner, who played in two Super Bowls with the St. Louis Rams and one with the Arizona Cardinals. Warner was the MVP of Super Bowl XXXIV and holds the record for most career passing yards in the Super Bowl with 1,156.

Kurt Warners been a great friend, really since I was drafted, Rodgers said Wednesday. And so I reached out to him about any advice he can give me this week, and the next week, (and) its readily appreciated. Im sure there will be more conversations with him.

I talked to a number of buddies who played in the Super Bowl before, and I think its important to learn from their experiences and try and find ways to stay focused. Im sure its going to be controlled chaos down there.

One can always tell how high and far a person will go in life by what they are willing to learn once they "Think" they know it all.

Aaron is that type of human being. It would be so easy for most people in his situation to THINK "Hey I am on top of the heap." excuse me... I need no advice, I got here and I need no advice.

He is a remarkable person.

For him to reach out. For him to ask. For him to say... "Let me learn form you."

It is just an example of how special he is, and will be to The Green Bay Packers forever.

Probably, but he'll have to leave a voicemail, only to never be called back :)

Hopefully he can get some good advice from Warner. One thing I heard this week that Tom Brady had told a teammate during their last SB appearance was to pace himself, because everybody gets so worked up in the SB and they are running on fumes by halftime. Seeing as how we have such a young team, I really hope McCarthy can deliver the same advice.
