Brandt says he might become the new Jeopardy host  instead.

I think Aaron wants to leverage them into letting him stay.  

It would open up a ton of cap room, but we already let Boyle go.

It wouldn't shock me to see Rodgers do exactly what he says he's going to do, because normally he does exactly what he says he's going to do.

Which was to keep playing into his 40s...

Losing Corey Linsley and Jamaal Williams is going to hurt, but you can't keep everyone. I'm not sure how much losing DT Montravius Adams will hurt, but retaining guys like Aaron Jones, Kevin King, Robert Tonyan, Allen Lazard and Marcedes Lewis is going to really help.

When I see people commenting on the Packers not doing enough, it blows my mind. They act like the Packers got destroyed up and down the field. If the Packers have their starting LT, they probably win that game. Aaron Jones also left early in the 2nd half. If the Packers have both David Bakhtiari and Aaron Jones when they get those three interceptions, I think we're talking about Aaron Rodgers potentially riding off into the sunset on the heels of back-to-back Super Bowl wins rather than this nonsense.

That said, I wouldn't be surprised if Aaron Rodgers retires either. If he gets married, wife gets pregnant and he gets offered the job at Jeopardy, why keep playing football? He has absolutely nothing to prove to anyone that matters.

Plus I get the feeling he's out a chip on his shoulder to be better than Brady at something, and be better than Brady was at whatever age he's at now... or at least try to.

Now that could all change with a family, but it all might stay the same especially if she wants to keep filming and not have a baby quickly.

Same goes with Tight Ted comments, when in reality, Thompson was too generous with players inside the locker room, not letting them walk often enough. Thompson dealt with Sherman's cap hell at first, then he'd would overpay Packers, and then wouldn't have the money to bring in a bunch of FAs without getting into cap troubles, and when he did bring in FAs, Woodson, Pickett etc... he then had to back off of it a couple of years... sorta like Gute with bringing in Smith, Smith, Amos and Turner... then had to back off of it a number of years.

wpr (7h) : 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.
Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.
