That’s pretty neat.
Shows you that not all of his ex team mates don’t think he’s a jerk.
It’s like anything....some people just don’t get along or see eye to eye.

This article lost my interest as soon as I saw Grog Jennings name. I'm pissed I even gave them credit for a click/view. Next time put a warning label on the link or something.

Did you try this on First Pick to see if it would fly? 😝

Aaron Rodgers playing in Las Vegas in 2020.
The League would do anything possible to make that happen.
The Packers would have 5 - 1st round picks, they could fill any needed hole/holes they feel the need.
Murphy didn't have the balls to blow up the team a year ago, no way he has them to make a move like this.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

If Aaron is running all this, it will not work. If Aaron spread bad rumors about Ted's health, tanked a season to get Mike fired and is making Mark Murphy order personnel moves like signing Jimmy Graham, this is going to crash and burn spectacularly.

Fortunately that scenario is far fetched. Right?

And I believe the Dolphins were interested, just not as much as the Vikings or Packers.

So I found it funny that their seeming plans for warm Florida beaches plan got moved to the land of 1,000 frozen lakes, lol, at least for two years... then he got down to the Dolphins but only for a year.

As for Finley, for years he's comments have just seemed like generic fan comments, not much insight. The only non-generic comment was when one tries "overcoach him, that’s when he’s going to do his own thing". But that can mean so many different things... including when Finley tried to coach Rodgers on how to throw the ball to him his rookie year... to more important coaching like please use the check downs... but it's so general, it doesn't tell us anything.

Though the last line leaves me confused... as Finley seems to think it's trust that you have run the right routes and show that know the plays to gain Rodgers trust.... how exactly is that crazy?

Finley's last line (I tried to quote it): "It's crazy to say, I played with the guy 6/7 years and, uh, I had to gain my trust BY, uh, running the right routes and knowing the plays [shaking his head side to side] it's crazy"

Certainly seems crazy that he would expect his guys to know the plays and what route to run? Why would Rodgers care if his receivers know what they are doing? Mind your own business, Aaron.

Finley doesn't confirm anything. He's turned himself from athlete who can't shut up to someone who wants to be a shock jock to get on radio shows.

When Jordy Nelson or Randall Cobb says something, then I'm ears.
