Two seasons ago the 49ers whipped us in the NFC title game. And it went pretty much as I thought it would.
Last season Rodgers had it all set up as he wanted it, with the NFC title game at home in Green Bay. Even with the screw ups by King, the defense gave Rodgers the ball several times in the fourth quarter, with his shot at leading the team to a win and a berth in the Super Bowl.
Fact is, in crunch time he couldn’t get it done.
How much of a better shot could he get at a second SB?
As a leader, in the biggest game of the year, he couldn’t put the team on his back and ride to victory.
Do I want him gone? Not really. Just stating the facts.
The Packers had one of the best offenses in the NFL during the regular season. Defense was good enough to pull off a title run. Rodgers needs to step up in title games.
Now with this B.S. about him wanting out, the damage is done I think as far as fans goes. Especially if the Packers don’t make the playoffs, or DO make the playoffs and they crash and burn again.
The Packers kept Aaron Jones, when I think just about all of us thought he was gone. Doesn’t Rodgers see that as proof that the Packers are trying to keep the best guys to make another run?
I get that he might want a final deal to finish his career here. But now with it out in the open that he wants out, how can he reel that back?
I just don’t know.
I wanted another SB win to celebrate before I ride off into the sunset.
