This team is really taking a beating in the newspaper, and if I may add, a much deserved beating. This past week there was talk, finally, about how Hawk hasn't improved his game and hasn't been the impact player he needs to be. Rogers hasn't exhibited the leadership that Brett "The traitor" Favre exhibited. Bob Sanders and Mike McCarthy are being called on the carpet and again, deservedly so.

We've still got a few games to play and this team has much to prove. McCarthy has to prove that he really the creative mastermind who knows how to motivate players and get them up playing their best. That is the McCarthy I know. This years team simply hasn't seemed to play with any spirit or any fight. Maybe behind closed doors there is some discontent over how the Favre incident was handled. Whatever is wrong, it needs to be corrected.

The off season should be interesting. We'll see what Ted Thompson is made of. I seriously hope that if he can't bail this team out, that the Pack will make the decision to make a change.

I don't understand why Rodgers would be questioned. It's his FIRST SEASON as a starter. Geez........at LEAST give the kid a LITTLE time to prove himself. Favre was VERY up and down his first few years. It took him TIME to become a good leader.
I think AR has done a very good job. Especially with all the preseason BS he had to deal with.
I remember MANY Packer fans calling for Favre's head, screaming for Don Majkowski to be put in the game.

it is real simple. Every team that faces the Packers has to do one thing on Defense.
STOP THE RUNNING GAME. once that is achieved, teams know there is no way rodgers can bring this team from behind for a win.

it is ridiculous to compare brett to rodgers. from the first second brett took the field to his last throw in the NFC Championship, you felt as a fan, you had a chance.

with rodgers, the feeling is the complete opposite.

I think Aaron Rodgers has done a very good job. Especially with all the preseason BS he had to deal with.

Major differences Favre helped the Packers get to the playoffs after we sucked for so long and Brett lead a comeback win in his second game not as a starter first game he got some mop up work against Tampa. Now we are spoiled and used to winning and we aren't doing it.Also Rodgers hasn't had that winning drive.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Brett's defenses were never this bad in his first years playing.
Teamwork is what the Green Bay Packers were all about. They didn't do it for individual glory. They did it because they loved one another. -Vince Lombardi

Actually, Rodgers and the Packers offense have scored many times on their last drive and they have took the lead (Panthers, Texans etc.), but the defense has crumbled on the last minute and so left Rodgers with 0:02 on the clock to win the game. Rodgers does have that last minute drive in him, but the defense can't hold on after that drive. That is why we have lost those close games. If you look at the endings of those games, you will realize this is the truth and can no longer use the "Rodgers isn't clutch"-argument.

Fin i did the research and we had the ball alot in the final 5 minutes of the game if you look in the rodgers latest thread i gave his stats. Rodgers has thrown passes in 11 of the 13 games so far in the final 5 minutes. So please read before you try telling me something that is false. And Rodgers threw a pick with 1:20 left on the clock against Carolina.

Sorry they moved the stats part lol here they are

Totals 51 Attempts 28 comps 376 Yards 1 TDS 3 INTS

thats his stats for the final 5 minutes os all the games this year so he had plenty of chances.

Rodgers has shown that he has the talent to win the NFL. With actual playing experience he will learn how to lead the team and win by the standards that he has set for himself.
