Unless Mortensen's sources are one or all of Ted Thompson, Mike McCarthy, Pat McKenzie or Aaron Rodgers...he is full of crap.

This is garbage and so is ESPN.

I really don't think Favre has anything to do with it.
I think Rodgers just wants to play, and knows this is a shot at the playoffs and he wants to lead the team.
I believe he'd be like that no matter WHO was the Packer's QB before he became the starter.

Rodgers is hypersensitive. We all know that. He feels he needs to outdo Favre.

Taking Mike McCarthy at his word instead of trying to read between the lines what probably ain't there, it seems obvious that McCarthy also - in addition to Rodgers - was not part of that stupid decision to not play Rodgers. Clearly, by saying "organizational decision", he was shoving the blame upward - and WHO is upward from McCarthy? That piss poor excuse for a GM that the Packers have - along with maybe the damned doctor.

This doesn't have anything to do with Favre or machismo or anything like that, it has everything to do with WINNING -which it strongly seems that God damned GM does not care nearly enough about.

Thanks to luck and effort by players on this undermanned team, we still have a chance on the last day of the season. Is God damned Thompson gonna blow that opportunity? I hope not.

Zero2Cool (1h) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?
beast (1h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.
beast (1h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out
Zero2Cool (1h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.
beast (1h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

Zero2Cool (1h) : I literally just said it.
packerfanoutwest (1h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't
Zero2Cool (1h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.
Zero2Cool (1h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.
packerfanoutwest (1h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what
Zero2Cool (1h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.
packerfanoutwest (1h) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in
packerfanoutwest (1h) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker

packerfanoutwest (2h) : If Packers lose the remaining games,,,,at 10-7
Zero2Cool (4h) : We can say it. We don't play.
Mucky Tundra (5h) : But to say they are in is looking past the Saints

Mucky Tundra (5h) : Packers are not in and have not clinched a playoff spot.
buckeyepackfan (6h) : Packers are in, they need to keep winning to improve their seed#.
Mucky Tundra (15h) : Getting help would have been nice, but helping ourselves should always be the plan

bboystyle (15h) : We just need to win Monday night and were in
Mucky Tundra (18h) : Or ties, but let's be real here
Mucky Tundra (18h) : Other scenario was Falcons+Rams losses

beast (21-Dec) : Well even if you weren't positive towards a guy, you wouldn't nessarily want to tell the media that (if they don't know about it)
Martha Careful (21-Dec) : I think MLF want Love to look past the end half issues, and feel good about his play. Our coaches generally keep a very positive tone.
beast (21-Dec) : I think a great running game will do that for most QBs
packerfanoutwest (21-Dec) : Coach Matt LaFleur has said quarterback Jordan Love is playing the best football of his career.
beast (21-Dec) : Oh, that's how you keep beating buckeye, with cheating
