I wasn't any more impressed with him this week than prior. He didn't even hit 200 yards..

Whoa. You're really love some hyperbole, huh? lol

No, it wasn't weird at all. I noticed a QB who was getting to the line quicker, getting into a rhythm and when he got the ball out quick, or at least leaned into his throws, they were on target.

Really annoying how (not Rourke) some are angling so damn hard to make this out to be Aaron trying to get HC fired. Colin Cowherd was a really idiot. He said he predicts Aaron to have a huge game and that everyone is going to love him again. I haven't watched/listened to his show to validate this, but I'm willing to bet this was just to set up the next angle ... Aaron has lost it! Even a new play caller couldn't fix him!!

Cowhard has a massive manhate boner vs Aaron. It's quite annoying because it plants seeds in peoples minds and as we know most people (definitely not Rourke) don't think for themselves and/or take a thought of someone else and try to validate it. Basically, it's guilt by association.

Dude still had all the old problems of ignoring wide open guys. Still playing like shit

Aaron Rodgers did not intentionally do anything to get Mike fired. Obviously their relationship broke down and Rodgers no longer had confidence in MM's play calling. He took it upon himself to change a lot of the plays. It resulted in an all around dysfunctional offense and a far cry from what they had built together in the past. It looked ok in spurts but was unsustainable which is to be expected when doubt creeps and confidence goes out the door. When coach and player are competing against each other vs. the other guys it's not going to end well.

It's a shame it happened the way it did but Arod has a deep desire to win and was willing to make decisions he felt were needed to win the game on that day at that time. This is probably not how anyone including him wanted this to go but morphed into what we all saw on the field.
It's a shame and I hate it but it's done and now big decisions need to be made and they better be good ones or the future won't look any prettier than the present and that's not good enough.

The New Orleans Saints have a QB coach that has done a pretty good job with Drew Brees lately.

He was also the OC for the Lions back in 2014 when they ranked #3 in scoring.

May not have the resume that all Packer fans are looking for, but he has one hell of a pedigree.

When we all read the lips of Aaron Rodgers "stupid fucking call ... stupid fucking call" or something like that, it was a sign ... the respect for coach ... no more.

This made me laugh out loud. Brightened a sucky day for me, so thanks for that.

I don't think Rodgers was trying to get McCarthy fired. His level of play also wasn't dramatically different this week -- he still demonstrated a tendency to hold on to the ball when opportunities for quick strikes presented themselves. But there did seem to be more pep in his step week, which made it hard not to think there wasn't at least some degree of relief that he was out from under the authority of McCarthy.

Of course, it was just one week. We'll see how the rest of the season plays out, while we hope for better things to come next year.
