Some ESPN show, audibles or something, they said the Packers have the best locker room in the NFL.

I like what I read. Finley is starting to show maturity that he seemed to lack in the last year. I also appreciate that even though Finley is a bright star on our offense, Rodgers is not afraid to criticize him for messing up on a successful play.

When I saw the title of this thread I groaned and thought "Oh, christ. What now?" but instead was pleasantly surprised.

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

Rodgers has handled PR very, very well. He was "thrown into the fire" with the Favre situation, handled that extremely well and continued on from there. Hopefully, Finley continues to m ature with age. He has gotten better but to me the situation seems like a time bomb. I fear it'll explode. I hope all my angst is for naught. T-Mike is such a talent I hope he develops the drive to be the best he can be. No reason he shouldn't be able to end up in the HOF, outside of injury. He has the talent and he has the talent(Rodgers) getting him the ball.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

He has shatterred the legacy of Favre, because he is everything that Favre's ego would not allow Favre to become.

I haven't heard anything about him being lazy in the weight room or not being a hard worker. The last aspect of becoming better is studying and asking questions. I think that his link to Larry Fitzgerald over the summer shows a ton of what we are looking for: that he is still a student and has a hunger for football knowledge to further increase his talent level.

loved Aaron Rodgers calling him out on the miscue.
Loved JMike's reply.
All is well in the Golden City.

Keep in mind that Aaron and the coaching staff pointed out the misplay by the rookie Cobb that also lead to a TD. They just want to make sure the players tighten things up and are on the same page which is an impossible task for all 11 players to be on the same page for every single play. Nevertheless Mike can expect it and push for it and Aaron as his field general can echo that goal.
