He's made one play and now he thinks he can tell fans what to do.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Ty Montgomery co-hosted Monday's Clubhouse Live, USA TODAY NETWORK-Wisconsin’s live weekly football show.

Among the topics he touched on were Sunday's loss to the Vikings, the perils of playing football and finding an offensive rhythm. The show can be seen live at The Clubhouse Sports Pub & Grill in downtown Appleton or at clubhouselive.com.

Here are select and edited answers from the interview:

Q: Aaron Rodgers famously told fans to relax following the Packers' 1-2 start to the 2014 season. What's your message to fans who are complaining about Sunday's setback against Minnesota and feeling anxious about the Packers' offensive struggles?

Montgomery: I'm going to go with chiiiiiiill - chill. The NFL season is a marathon, not a sprint. And as I'm sure a lot of you all remember – I wasn't here, but the 2010 season, there was a (two-game losing) streak and it wasn't the undefeated season we all hope for. And we still won the Super Bowl that year. So, just chiiiiiiill.

The fact is we have seen the same shitty offense for about a full season now. We thought that Jordy coming back would help, but it hasn't.

The WRs look slow.

The TEs are barely used in the middle of the field.

Rodgers is happy feet and doesn't plant when he throws. He also looks like he doesn't care at times.

Without the back-shoulder throw we have very little passing strategy.

Lacy still looks fat and slow and hits the line and stops on almost all his runs out of the pistol. At least appears to have more energy.

We still give up too many big plays on 3rd down. The middle of the field is still open for the opposing slot receive and TE.

It is hard to chill when we see the same failings and get no passion from our coaches and our stars to rally the team.

Looks like I have to change my avi to "JUST CHILL" instead of "AARON SAYS RELAX".

Monty, get on the field, get open, catch the ball and score TDs or shutup.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

"The NFL season is a marathon, not a sprint"
Yes.....this is true......but even in a marathon, if you are only at the 10 mile mark in a 20 mile marathon while there are 3 others already at the 19 mile mark, you are in TROUBLE.

Even as lousy as we played, we had a chance to pull a win out and Rodgers screws it up.
He USED to make me feel like if we were within one score with a little time left, we had a chance.
Now I don't feel that way any more.

I love how every time a Packer player or coach gets a question thrown their way it gets spun back to the Super Bowl win in 2010...WTF have we done since then? That was six seasons ago and for some unknown reason shitting the bed for the last few seasons means nothing because they won it all in 2010...We had the talent to make the Big Show more than once since 2010 but piss poor coaching and players failing to execute has led to a team that loves to look at the past instead of the task at hand. I'm getting real close to jumping on the blow up the coaching staff bandwagon because business as usual isn't cutting the mustard anymore.

Monty's not right. I hope he gets back to where he was, because he was special.

I hate to say it but the '10 Super Bowl keeps looking more and more like a fluke.

Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (53m) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (54m) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (1h) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (1h) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (2h) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (2h) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (2h) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (2h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (2h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (2h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (2h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (2h) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (2h) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (2h) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (2h) : I literally just said it.

packerfanoutwest (2h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't

Zero2Cool (2h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.

Zero2Cool (2h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.

packerfanoutwest (2h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what

Zero2Cool (2h) : Packers should get in. I just hope it's not 7th seed. Feels dirty.

packerfanoutwest (2h) : If packers lose out, no matter what, they are in

packerfanoutwest (2h) : both teams can not male the playoffs....falcon hold the tie breaker

packerfanoutwest (2h) : if bucs win out they win their division

beast (2h) : Fine, Buccaneers and Falcons can get ahead of us

packerfanoutwest (2h) : falcons are already ahead of us

beast (2h) : Packers will get in

beast (2h) : If Packers lose the rest of their games and Falcons win the rest of theirs, they could pass us... but not gonna happen

packerfanoutwest (3h) : they still are in the playoffs

packerfanoutwest (3h) : If Packers lose the remaining games,,,,at 10-7

Zero2Cool (4h) : We can say it. We don't play.

Mucky Tundra (6h) : But to say they are in is looking past the Saints

Mucky Tundra (6h) : That said, their odds are very favorable with a >99% chance of making the playoffs entering this week's games

Mucky Tundra (6h) : 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

beast (16h) : Too bad Seahawks couldn't beat Vikings

bboystyle (16h) : We just need to win Monday night and were in

Mucky Tundra (19h) : Or ties, but let's be real here

Mucky Tundra (19h) : Other scenario was Falcons+Rams losses

Mucky Tundra (19h) : Needed a Falcons loss for a Seahawk loss to clinch

buckeyepackfan (19h) : Am I wring in saying if Tge Vikings beat The Seahawks, The Packers clinch?

Mucky Tundra (21-Dec) : Agreed; you stinks

Zero2Cool (21-Dec) : I'm not beating anyone. I stinks.

Mucky Tundra (21-Dec) : rough injury for tank dell. guy can't catch abreak

beast (21-Dec) : So far the college playoffs have sucked... One team absolutely dominates the other

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
