But isn't that the crux of this Rodgers debate, if he has or hasn't proven he's got what it takes to be our starting QB? The only time I think about the STFU comment is when it is brought up in this forum. Should he have said it, probably not.

But was he under unbelievable pressure due to the circumstances of the off season? Did he keep it together and show professionalism? One slip up, or poorly phrased comment, does not mean much to me when you consider the atmosphere at the time of said comment. After all, he's just a kid answering the same stupid questions and comments over and over.

If it had been Ryan Leaf in the same situation he probably would have murdered someone!

And yes, I'm on board, have been since #4 retired.

Honestly, I haven't held that against him at all.. just didn't care for it.

I always enjoyed the Mike Singletary type of mentality.. let your play do the talking for you, but everyone freaking player on the field could feel your intensity without saying a flipping word.

I admired Aaron later in the season when he kept getting up after getting crushed, walked back into the huddle and lined up again for the next play... that there spoke more to me than any word he could utter.

You bet I am.

And I'm glad he said it. Showed he had some fire in the belly. If you'd switched the roles, I'd bet good money that a young B. Favre would have said something like that as well.

I don't want some simp tip-toeing around on eggshells worried about appearing appropriately respectful, I want an NFL QB who has faith in himself and his abilities. And a personality is a nice thing to have as well, as Packers fans have known for the past 17 years.

On board, in the front seat, yelling "Punch it!"
