Aaron Rodgers may be missing the most important quality a top NFL quarterback needs to have. He's brilliant, he can make all the throws, it's undeniable that he's one of the best to ever play. But when it comes to the greatest signal-callers in the game, Aaron Rodgers' lack of leadership sticks out. Take Tom

Still with Aaron at qb the Packers are never out of a close game.

Aaron needs to prove he's not becoming Jay Cutler. Hopefully, withbthis new coaching staff, he will be adhering to fundamentals and mechanics much more consistently. I think he'll be fine and will bounce back with a great season next year.

Part of that leadership, is sharing responsibilities in a group... and he did verbally try to call some other groups out, but he didn't seem to trust guys on the field, weather if it was the young WRs, throwing them an up for grabs ball, giving the responsibilities to come down with it... or trusting the RBs on check downs (which I don't understand).

Part of that was the scheme asking Rodgers to hold it, to look for the big plays... but I hope the new scheme mixes it up having some throws which Rodgers should get the ball off quickly to not let pass rushers time to get going... and using underneath routes use as RB as a receiver in the passing game.

Moronic article...using the same logic, Marino was a bad leader as well. And Drew Brees was a crappy leader, except when his team does well. Then he is a great leader. Typical hack piece....ass wipe.

I have never felt that Rodgers showed any leadership qualities, nor have I ever felt that the other on field superstar, Clay Matthews has shown any leadership qualities.
The Packers have had a leadership deficit including their former head coach for a number of years now.

I'm not saying he's one... but I like Alexander, because a bit cocky on the field and it shows, that's the little bit extra... which by the way can be both good and bad depending on where it's lead and lead by whom and what their goal is... which I don't think that cockiness is leadership, but it just feels like the Packers (especially their defense) hasn't had that swag since the Super Bowl year.


From rumors (which I have NO IDEA if true or complete BS), Matthews has strongly attempted to lead many times... but it's come off wrong... like he's trying too hard, forcing it and it makes him seem like a jerk and it's not natural smooth leadership. I can't confirm that, but I do remember "Matthews leadership" got brought up to Sam Shields and his body language negatively SCREAMED... but he gave some politically correct answer... but my interpretation was that (at minimum) "Matthews' leadership" gets on his nerves.

NYRPACK, you don't get it. He is the biggest problem on the team!!
-He doesn't hit the short guys who are open early (even thought the play design and reads were targeting intermediate gain.) Its his fault.
-The lack of running game is his fault, he always goes to the Pass on RPO's....and this is un-motivating to our OL
-His giant salary is causing them to sign crappy players (even though the Eagles have backups on the OL who have started in SB)
-He shouldn't have played if his knee required surgery....that was selfish and stat whoring

Man...you just don't get it

dfosterf (27-Aug) : Nick Nieman from Texans our 5th linebacker. Special teams signing
TheKanataThrilla (27-Aug) : Looks like we signed Clayton Tune as QB3
wpr (27-Aug) : TKT people lose their minds over QB3. Point is almost none of them are ready that's why they are on the PS and other teams don't take them.

beast (27-Aug) : I think Cowboys fans are ready to get their pitch forks and burning sticks if Jerry were to trade Micah
dfosterf (27-Aug) : If Jerry traded Micah to GB, here in northern Va. they would have to quick build yet another data center to handle the internet hate traffic
Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : its signing and trades that you don't hear about, other then announced
Zero2Cool (27-Aug) : If you hear rumors about Packers sign or trade, won't happen. Not how they work
dfosterf (27-Aug) : 19 players in a contract year. Jones called loss to us worst loss in Cowboy history. Forget Parsons trade. Not happenin' Cap'n
packerfanoutwest (27-Aug) : The Packers, meanwhile, are the youngest team in the league for the third consecutive year.
dfosterf (27-Aug) : That it was darkest before the dawn in Bengals and Commanders before they got deals done
