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?

beast (1h) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

Mucky Tundra (6h) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (6h) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (7h) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (7h) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (7h) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

dfosterf (7-Aug) : out on a field trip, outfitting them with little yellow smocks. Most of the little folk were well behaved, but several were like trying

dfosterf (7-Aug) : Yesterday my wife and I spent the afternoon on the waterfront here in Alexandria, Va. A daycare company took about 15 three/four year olds

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : You can have my 12th Rd for your 2nd round

Mucky Tundra (3-Aug) : Family Night! WE ARE SO BACK!

Mucky Tundra (2-Aug) : To this day, I'm still miffed about his 4 TD game against Dallas on Thanksgiving going to waste

Martha Careful (2-Aug) : Congratulations Sterling Sharpe. He was terrific and I loved watching him play.

beast (2-Aug) : I believe it's technically against the CBA rules, but Jerry just calls it a simple unofficial chat... and somehow gets away with it.

beast (2-Aug) : Jerry Jones is infamous for ̶n̶e̶g̶o̶t̶i̶a̶t̶i̶n̶g̶ chatting with players one on one... and going around the agent.

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Oo just saw a blurb saying that Dallas negotiated directly with Parsons and not through his agent

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : I assumed that both guys will get paid, just a matter of when or how we get there

Zero2Cool (1-Aug) : McLaurin nor Micah going anywhere. They will get money

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : the Synder years or do they take care of one of their own?

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Do the Commanders risk losing a top WR with an emerging QB just because he's turning 30 and potentially risk damaging the rebuild from

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : Turns 30 this September, plays at a high level and Washington has some cap space I believe

Mucky Tundra (1-Aug) : More interesting is Washington with Terry McLaurin
