Favre also had an interview on Monday where he apparently re-wrote history and talked about how he helped and mentored Aaron as a rookie. Those concussions have likely caught up to Bert because those who listened to the interview and remember Favre's cold shoulder to young AR certainly remember it far differently. Likely Rodgers does as well. 

No question- he’s declining. The deep ball certainly is the most noticeable decline- he underthew a LOT of deep balls last year. And if you’re running a power run game to draw defenders into the box, you will get a lot of big vertical strike opportunities. 

But it maybe it’s his knee- his mechanics had to be all sorts of fucked up while he was playing on one leg- and as smart as he is, this possibility (even probability) can’t escape him as a source for his decline in play. There will be no shortage of subplots this coming season...

IMO Rodgers has plenty of weapons, he just needs to run the offense that MLF spent his career refining. GB was 3 points/ game away from being a Top 10 offense and 5 pts/ game away from being a Top 5 offense.
A few tweaks here and there and a RB who can close out games...
GB offense will be a top performer in 2020 with the roster they have

And #1 in WR separation.  Bullshit.  This team needs a legit #2.

Yes, and his name is Equinimeous St. Brown and he's already on the roster

EQ's a better WR in 2020 than all but a few of the WR's that fans were lathered up for in the draft. He's a top athlete, he's been in the system for 2 years, he's in tip top shape and he won't be negatively impacted by the abbreviated offseason like a rookie would. WRs often come into their own in year 3, he's in year 3

He's also proven himself on the field and in the classroom.
Here's a couple of highlights with YAC, RAC and even a CRACK to end the video

 

The throw vs the 9ers in 2018 was with the game on the line and he makes a spectacular catch and gets out of bounds to stop the clock with 15 seconds left, allowing GB to get in position to win the game.

QB1 trusts the guy in crunch time, that's huge for a young WR.

I am also hopeful EQ is a legit #2...problem is, we've got a bunch of WR in the same mold. We could have really used someone more in the Cobb or Gerg mold to round out this unit. Funchess, EQ, Lazard, MVS...all kinda the same dude. Outside of 17, we just don't have an explosive guy.

But, that said, few rookie WR make an explosive impact in their first year.

It’s gonna be really funny in 3 years when GB flips Jordan Love for a high 1st rounder and re-signs Rodgers into his 40’s. Manufactured drama is dumb...GB wants Aaron Rodgers until he doesn’t want to be in GB anymore or until he hangs it up. Murphy isn’t going to allow the summer of 2008 to happen again and if he allows it then he should be fired. GB was tired of Brett’s retirement bullshit, Aaron won’t waffle and they won’t take a hard stance with him like they did Brett.
