First, the "audible thing.' Then, the "joint practice thing.' It's hard not to wonder what "thing' will come next between one of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history and his first-year head coach. For now, it's clear that Packers coach Matt LaFleur likes joint practices, and that Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers doesn't. "[A]bsolutely 100 percent [more]

I mean, Florio invents controversy. It's his thing. Sometimes it's amusing, sometimes it's just sad and desperate. I follow PFT to see actual news/rumors, but you gotta take the manufactured stories with a grain of salt.

I think what Rodgers is upset about is that instead of delving into the playbook and working out kinks that the offense has, they're wasting time going through the motions with a vanilla offense that achieves nothing. On the other hand it seems the defense has really gotten a lot of good reps in vs the Texans O and Turner and Baylor have looked good on the oline.

"I’ve got it." -Aaron Rodgers

Florio has made it clear that he doesn't like Rodgers... personal I think it's because they're too similar in their personalities and how they get some of their points across, in that when they try to bury someone or something they tried to do it quite subtlety, but it's more noticably to others than they think.

But really they're talking apples and oranges, Rodgers is just saying he didn't like dumbing down the scheme that they have been working on, or the people getting injured in the almost live ST work. While LaFleur (didn't say enough about what he loved about it, but I it's safe to say it wasn't the injuries), LaFleur probably liked getting to see them getting to complete against guys they aren't used to competing against.


Also fans have complained about the vanilla schemes in preseason games, but I argue that it's better and easier from the evaluating talent perspective as they're all being asked to do similar things, and your not confusing anyone, or giving someone an unfair numbers advantage on a certain play, for them to shine that others didn't get. Taking out the variance in different plays.

It's probably good for scouting. If players can't handle the vanilla scheme VS another team, they probably won't handle the "fun" stuff.

It's on Aaron to make this offense happen, period.

A lot to say about nothing.
I did a lot of things bosses I had, told me to do. I might voice my opinion, but in the end I did my job.
Maybe Aaron likes a white jock strap and coach likes him to wear a blue one.
Who cares???

beast (13h) : 6 days
wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife
Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately
Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.
dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.
Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?
Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb
wpr (9-Apr) : yay
Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland
Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'
Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you
Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.
