When I say we're spoiled to go from Brett to Aaron, you jump my case, but it's okay for your co-workers? I see how you are! 😂

I think it's okay to be somewhat concerned over how Aaron Rodgers has played the last 14 games. I wouldn't for a second say I want him benched, in fact, I just traded Derek Carr (& Deangelo Williams) for Aaron Rodgers (& Jeremy Langford) in the OFFICIAL PACKERSHOME Fantasy League.

My only beef is the same thing I've been saying since the Chiefs game last season. He's missing open guys consistently and is not stepping into his throws. He's looking to scramble instead of looking to dump it off.

QB's as we all know have reads and progressions. If you know you're getting tanked, you dump it off shallow the drag route WR/TE/RB or whomever.

I'm not saying that it's wrong to be concerned about Aaron Rodgers or that it's wrong to want him benched. That's fine, and a loose (although a very loose argument at this point, imo) argument can be made for that. I'm just putting things into perspective from some of my intelligent NFL fan coworkers. If any Packers fans have such a problem with Aaron Rodgers, then advocate for his ass to be traded ASAP, because I'm certain multiple other teams would love to have him.

In a way, I almost want it to happen. Not because I have a huge problem with him like some, but just because I think he can easily still be the best QB in the game under the right situation. I'm not sure this is the right situation for him anymore, and I don't know that it will be while McCarthy is the head coach (which will probably be for a long time, unfortunately). He has been one of my favorite QBs to watch. His physical tools are still there, but he might need a different style of more aggressive coaching to bring at the best in him at this point in his career, and I think there are some coaches in the league that could do that. It's always tough to see a great talent wasted, but it happens pretty often in the NFL.

I don't have too much of a problem with what Lang said because I think it's at the point with Aaron where it can't get much worse so if getting called out has a chance to shake something loose it's worth it

I think Rodgers needs glasses.
He seems to think all his WR's are 9 feet tall and can catch a ball thrown 13 feet over their heads.

This QB and his RBs/WRs/and TEs are only just forming their synchronization and I don't believe this unit's WR pecking order is in place just yet. In addition, the Center and the Left Guard positions are still working to catch up with the other O-linemen .

This team, IMO, will beat the Lions on Sept. 25th , but will not really start to show it's Offensive potential until OCT. 9th against the Giants . Until then, CHILL, GRILL, and wait for the THRILLS .

Aaron was famous for saying if you're open you get the ball. As long as we get back to that, I'm sure we'll all go back to being happy campers!

beast (22h) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)

Martha Careful (22h) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.

beast (22h) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs

packerfanoutwest (23h) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.

beast (21-Dec) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating

beast (20-Dec) : As of tonight, 3 way tie for 2nd in Pick'em, that battle is interesting!

beast (20-Dec) : Lions vs Vikings could be the main last game as it could determine division winners or #1 vs #2 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Or if KC needs to win for the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : Right now it looks like the only prime worthy games are Det-Minny and KC-Denver (if Denver can clinch a wild card spot)

Mucky Tundra (20-Dec) : The entirety of week 18 being listed as flex is weird

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Matt LaFleur today says unequivocally "Ted Thompson had nothing to do with the drafting of Jordan Love."

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Apparently, the editing is what pieces comments together. That Ted thing ... fake news.

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : LaFleur "opportunity that Ted Thompson thought was too good to pass up"

Zero2Cool (19-Dec) : Jordan Love pick was Ted Thompson's idea.

Mucky Tundra (19-Dec) : Kyle Shanahan on signing De'Vondre Campbell as a FA last offseason: “We obviously made a mistake.”

packerfanoutwest (19-Dec) : Alexander’s last season with GB

Martha Careful (18-Dec) : if I were a professional athlete, I would probably look to see who the agent is for Kirk Cousins and then use him

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : a lower case b

Mucky Tundra (18-Dec) : The real lie is how beast capitalized his name in his message while it's normally spelled with

packerfanoutwest (18-Dec) : haha that's a lie

beast (17-Dec) : Despite what lies other might tell, Beast didn't hate the Winter Warnings, it felt refreshing to Beast for some reason.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : whiteout uniforms in general are pretty lame and weak. NFL greed at it's worst

Martha Careful (17-Dec) : The Viking uniforms, the whiteout uniforms specifically absolutely suck

beast (17-Dec) : Thanks Zero2Cool, looks a lot better now

beast (17-Dec) : Seems like someone has a crush on me, can't stop talking about me

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : Should be gooder now. The forum default theme went to goofy land.

Zero2Cool (17-Dec) : What the hell

packerfanoutwest (17-Dec) : yeah beast hates the Winter Warning Unies

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Okay I'm glad to know it's not just something happening to me lol

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Zero, did you copy the Packers uniforms from last night and white out the board?

beast (16-Dec) : Oh crap, is the board going to the Winter Warning Uniforms too?!? It's all white on white right now!

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : WR Odell Beckham Jr is officially a free agent after clearing waivers.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : Packers are 6th in sacks.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : RB David Montgomery will undergo season-ending knee surgery.

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : Dan Campbell on onside kick with 12 minutes left: In hindsight, wish I didn’t do that

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : They have that whole 12th man thing so ...

wpr (16-Dec) : I think more likely to be Pack fans that live in the area.

Zero2Cool (16-Dec) : That was crazy to hear go pack go in Seattle of all plays. That 12 man thing an all

Mucky Tundra (16-Dec) : jdlax, good man!

jdlax (16-Dec) : Mucky, there were too many of us there to credit any single one but for sure i was 60% responsible.
