Favre stirring the pot. Final revenge on his old team.

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.
Jerk. I'm boycotting all the products he advertises on TV.
Is Rodgers scared?

No question- heâs declining. The deep ball certainly is the most noticeable decline- he underthew a LOT of deep balls last year. And if youâre running a power run game to draw defenders into the box, you will get a lot of big vertical strike opportunities.
But it maybe itâs 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) canât escape him as a source for his decline in play. There will be no shortage of subplots this coming season...
@Satori posted: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.
Both are true:
Packers really needed to upgrade the WR group.
AR leaves a lot of throws on the field in search of the big play.
As far as Favre goes, can't believe AR is particularly happy with his diarrhea of the mouth. Probably should have just left it at surprised by the Love pick.
It's times like these that you find out what a guy is really made of, if he's a pro's pro, and how he wants to be remembered. We'll see what comes out in Rodgers as time goes on... besides a lot of cliches!

Favre with the revisionist history
He just can't help himself.

Last years first round pick contributed next to nothing, now we are looking at this years first round pick contributing next to nothing on teams with superbowl aspirations.
Frustration isn't unwarranted
Who'd they draft last year? Gary Coleman?
AR has over 30 million reasons to STFU and play football... at a high level.

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 hopes you right. I like EQ, he was doing some good stuff in the slot but he's still a wait and see proposition.
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.
So GB should pin their hopes on a guy drafted at the end of the 6th round that has basically done nothing in the league and is coming off an injury that put him on IR.
Solid plan indeed.
Itâs gonna be really funny in 3 years when GB flips Jordan Love for a high 1st rounder and re-signs Rodgers into his 40âs. Manufactured drama is dumb...GB wants Aaron Rodgers until he doesnât want to be in GB anymore or until he hangs it up. Murphy isnât going to allow the summer of 2008 to happen again and if he allows it then he should be fired. GB was tired of Brettâs retirement bullshit, Aaron wonât waffle and they wonât take a hard stance with him like they did Brett.
As I noted, I'll be thrilled if Rodgers retires a Packer in Jan 2027.
Bert is just being the pot-stirring twat we've all come to know.
Just because he and 12 have mended fences doesn't mean his corn-pone bullshit is any more sincere. Don't fool yourselves...he'd love nothing more than shit to go south between 12 and Gutenwhacker/MLF.
Move along here...nothing to see...
