Good for you Aaron.

You're going to see and hear Green Bay Packers players everywhere for the next few days. As we noted earlier, quarterback Aaron Rodgers will appear on "The Late Show with David Letterman" Monday night. You won't want to miss that, and I don't think you'll want to miss Rodgers' interview Monday morning with ESPN Radio's Colin Cowherd.

Many of you have asked why Cowherd has been so reluctant to include Rodgers in his grouping of elite NFL quarterbacks. Apparently, Rodgers has been wondering the same.

"Now I hope I can live up to your standards of being an elite quarterback," Rodgers told Cowherd, who laughed and noted the sarcasm.

"The oranges are dry; the apples are mealy; and the papayas... I don't know what's going on with the papayas!"

Colin Cowherd predicted that Aaron Rodgers would be the Super Bowl MVP?

thanks for posting that...I'm glad Aaron gave it to Colin a little, and I also never recall Colin predicting Aaron to the be the SB MVP. I seem to recall him sniffing Big Ben's butt! Maybe I should re-write history and what I say, just to see what happens.

Dude, you can take that avatar, but if you do that, that's really unfair. That's unfair, man. That's my hometown you're talking about! That's my hometown. If you gonna do that, that's really unfair.

It would be awesome if you rotated it, though.

I stole your thunder in the other thread so we're even. I think Finny rotated a rodgers' pic, so I'm tempted, but it is your hometown afterall, and I don't want you to have a TO moment on here!

He backed into it, saying he felt the Packers would edge the Steelers and that the quarterback of the winning team basically always gets the award so by default that would be Rodgers.

I love that Rodgers really stuck it to him. Cowherd tried to make excuses and rationalize every win Rodgers and the Packers came up with this postseason. He said after the Eagles came they only won it because they had a running game (nevermind Rodgers' 120 qb rating and 3 tds). He said the Falcons defense was a joke and tearing them up was easy (they allowed basically the same amount of points as the Bears, it was 1 or 2 more). He ripped on Rodgers for having a bad rating against the Bears.

Now he's talking about how hard it is to get in to the elite quarterback club (like he's the supreme authority on the matter) and be compared to the top guys but at the start of the playoffs he was talking about how Matty Ice* has done nothing but resurrect an Atlanta franchise and be Tom Brady 2.0.

*Ironically, Ice melts in the coldest months of the year in this case.

Good on Rodgers for giving it to him because he absolutely deserved it.

Zero2Cool (12m) : Luke Getsy been helping Packers defense. He's former OC Bears/Raiders and our old QB coach

beast (2-Jan) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.

dfosterf (2-Jan) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc

dfosterf (2-Jan) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before

dfosterf (2-Jan) : Hats off to the Beast

dfosterf (2-Jan) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

beast (2-Jan) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : BTW, not serious.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You don't care about it either!!!!

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.

Mucky Tundra (2-Jan) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest

beast (2-Jan) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.

beast (2-Jan) : So much for Conference Championship meaning something as 100% (so far) of the conference Champions lost their first playoff game.

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Jaire had surgery, season over.

Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : I guess I need a new sig Pic. Boo

Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : Eric Dickerson approves of this decision

beast (1-Jan) : Eagles are resting RB Saquon Barkley, so there is no chance he breaks the record despite being just 101 yards from it

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Patriots are waiving veteran pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue

beast (1-Jan) : Happy New Year's 🥳🎉

beast (31-Dec) : I want to them chant some songs for Daniel Whelan

beast (31-Dec) : Let's win one! Also, hopefully the Irish will stand with Daniel Whelan

Mucky Tundra (31-Dec) : After London and Brazil, I could go without an overseas game for a while

Zero2Cool (31-Dec) : Packers. Steelers. Ireland. 2025. Reports say.

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Matt Lafleur on if Jaire will play again this season. "Yeah I don't know... he's been dealing with swelling."

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Do the Packers have any best players?

beast (30-Dec) : Play or Rest*

beast (30-Dec) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Packers should be 3 - 2 in the Division. Bonkers being swept by both Lions and Vikings. yikes

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : All crazy stuff…and good point beast

beast (30-Dec) : Packers should be 0-5 in the division, can't say I saw that coming, even 1-4

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Sam Darnold 35 TD's ... another one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Baker Mayfield, 39 TD's ... can't say I saw that one

Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : No matter who is playing as 7th, I think we want them to win. Get rid of 2nd seed haha

go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota

beast (30-Dec) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th

beast (30-Dec) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?

beast (30-Dec) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead

beast (30-Dec) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18

Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?

beast (30-Dec) : If Commanders win, the Packers drop to the 7th seed

beast (29-Dec) : Taylor still at it!

beast (29-Dec) : Colts get the ball and fumble turn over

packerfanoutwest (29-Dec) : Jets pull Aaron Rodgers for Tyrod Taylor
