If only GB could have all pro players at every position. It would be so much easier that way.
@MichiganPacker2 posted:That's why they are paying Gary and drafted Gary and Van Ness in the top half of the first round. They don't have to be Reggie White or TJ Watt, but they have to do more than the next to nothing they've provided so far this year.
One is being paid big money, the other is useless.
Didn't we get a high level of pressure from the DL last year? DL coach was let go and one of those assistant guys took over:
If you're paying Saleh anyway, get his ass to GB full time and let him loose on the defensive line room. A Super Bowl run is on the line. Forget worrying about stepping on anyone's toes and fix the issue, imo.

Wow. Jets beat the Jags. Story to follow in the newest issue of the Paint Drying Gazette.

You know, all wonderful punny headlines aside, you're in a world of hurt when you have to brag about beating the Jags this year.
23:15 for 8's Packer commentary
9:10 for 17's Packer commentary.
The Rodgers Netflix documentary is uploaded and watchable.
Watchable being a relative term?
I just finished. Recaps his entire career with an emphasis on the personal changes he made Covid-post Covid and his handling and rehab of the achilles injury. Look, I can see why people don't like the guy, but man there were some good memories there, and think what you want, but I think the guy is good person. Flawed for sure, but who isn't?
It was cool to see a lot of comments on there from MM, Favre (still awkward). and MLF about Rodgers time in GB. What really struck me though was the amount of regular season success vs post-season disappointments . As many great memories as there were, and there were a lot, there was just the one SB win. Some players and teams consider that a gift, but seems like a disappointment for Rodgers and something he's making peace with.
Just finished up. It was interesting. Nothing too revealing for all of us that have been following the team, but it was a lot more NFL Films than kooky documentary. Was hoping it wouldn't be 3 hours of bitter complaining. Definitely wasn't that. Worth a watch for any Packer fan, imo. Did a pretty good job covering his Packer career. If you watch on a tablet instead of a TV you can adjust the speed to 1.5 and get through it in 2 hours instead of 3.
Watched the first episode then over to the Bucks game.
One thing that struck me was all the me, me, me, me, I, I, I, I throughout. I mean, I know none of us here would be surprised to know that Rodgers is a classic egomaniac but for anyone that wasn't aware, they are after watching that. I also noted him mentioning his goals on returning to play for the Jets
#1 - win an MVP
#2 - win a Super Bowl
After 2010 season and Superb Owl win he was never a team guy.

I donât doubt that heâs a good guy and Iâll probably watch it at some point, but right now Iâm just ready for him to go away for awhile. WAY too much media coverage for AR, especially for a QB whoâs best days are clearly behind him.
I do still enjoy the shadenfruede aspect of it all though. Karma.
Not really sure what I can learn from this. He has been a part of our lives for almost 20 years, not in the shadows either. Is there is any âcelebrityâ that we need to know more of? He hasnât been shy or reticent to comment on the minutiae of his life.
Iâll watch him play til he is gone, thatâs enough for me.
that his rift with his family began in high skool... young feller, a very key aspect of enlightenment is forgiveness and forgetting the past. there is only now.
of course, AR's about as enlightened as a whale oil lamp
If you read his book there isn't a very good chance of ever getting back on his good side once he's sent you to "the island".
Only one person (allegedly) has returned after being sent to the island. And that was his best friend from high school. Or what he called his "best friend".
Guys like Rodgers can never have real friends. It's just people he allows around him and everyone else can fuck off.

Something good for a change. Nice to see him doing good stuff for the kids. I find it amusing the kid doesn't know who he is. I think Rodgers actually likes that too.

What they don't tell you in the xtweet is that AR intentionally bought a pair for the kid two sizes too small but told him that's how great football players wear them. Totally AR.....what a prick!
Sometimes Packers fans wonder what it would be like if we had an owner.
It would be different for sure. Might be better. Might be the Jets or Panthers.
I think Woody should make a statement by being the first owner to also fire the interim coach and letting a grand-interim coach handle the last couple of games.
Woody seems like a guy who's got the people that manage the money, managing him. Has to be fun for the people that have that kind of influence to make decisions without consequence. Just keep the numbers right and everything else is like fantasy football for rich folk.
Funny how Jeff Ubrich is taking heat for his 4th down aggressiveness when everybody knows he wasnât the one making those decisions.

Has IC been reduced to humping ankles and crying about off topic shit?
He used to be cool.
OK, I'm kidding... I'm kidding...
He was never cool.
He used to be known as Iowa Sleaze around X4. That is an old GIF he used to frequently post here.
Woody could hire a family member on his wife's side as an interim coach-in-law.
Money can't buy happiness or intelligence, it seems.

New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers needs only one touchdown pass to reach 500 for his career, and his longtime friend and teammate, Davante Adams, wants to be the one to catch it.
"Obviously, I'd love to," Adams said Friday after practice. "I got 200, I got 400, so it would be dope to get 500 as well."
Rodgers is on the verge of joining Tom Brady (649), Drew Brees (571), Peyton Manning (539) and Brett Favre (508) as the only players in NFL history with 500 touchdown passes. .
"We've had some special connections in the past, so it'd be great," said Adams, who expects to play despite a hip injury from last week. "And, obviously, it would be a big, big thing for him. Not that he needs more accolades and more milestones, but you might as well keep racking them up while you can."
So how many consecutive passes will Rodgers throw to Adams? 5? 10? 15?
https://www.espn.com/nfl/story...odgers-500th-td-pass
He did catch his 500th TD and dropped it against LA. I don't have the link.
I'm surprised he didn't do it earlier.

Rodgers sets an NFL record. Most sacks of a qb.
@wingoz: So the report from @RapSheet is that if Aaron Rodgers comes back next season Garrett Wilson wants out. It would the most @nyjets thing ever if they thought about staying with a gonna-be 42 year old QB next season over a 24 year old WR with game breaking potential
One has game breaking potential and one has hip breaking potential.
AR on that Magic Carpet Ride aka The Jets ExperienceÂĐ.
Well, one is 24 and the other is 42
An ironic paradox and not just the numbers
Just the way that goofball kook would like it to be
To be fair, 42 is the answer to everything.

Watched that last game and thought to myself on the safety, "Now who would call a longer developing pass from the 1/2-yard line?" and then I slapped myself upside the head because I knew it was Rodgers who was trying to be a hero. And then he didn't have time/couldn't pull the trigger to prevent the safety. What a day he had: two INTs (one by a lineman), safety, and a penalty for an OOB late hit. More like a Caleb day than a HOFer day.
Itâs a bad day when you throw zero TDs and two interceptions, and then the backup comes in at the end and throws two TDs.

I knew Rodgers was washed, but I really knew he was washed there. He had a hot read who was covered, but decided to hold onto the ball to see if the receiver came free, but never did.
A younger Rodgers would have just thrown it at the WRs feet and lived to see another down. 41 year old Rodgers has a brain fart and is too slow.
There was another play.....3rd down, he rolls to the right and has Breece Hall wide frigging open for a first down and move the sticks.....instead he throws back towards the TE middle of the field who was also wide open and his throw is at the guys feet and ends up incomplete.
His accuracy all year long has been abysmal.
Head and arm may be fine, but without leg strength he's done - at least for a throw back across the middle. Still needs the lower body torque.
He shouldn't have skipped leg day.

Cousins has been just as bad if not worse. It's almost like giving old QB's coming of achilies injuries hundreds of millions of dollars is a stupid idea.
Atlanta was stupid to pick Penix when they had given all that guaranteed money to Kirk but in the end they're in much better position than the Jets are going to be.

Think about it, the Jets had both the offensive and defensive rookies of the year (Garrett Wilson and Sauce Gardner) and a top 5 ranked defense in 2022, and then pick up both Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams.
In 2022 they were 7-10 with Zach Wilson. These ROY's have 2 years to get even better and they add in one of the best QB/WR tandems of all time to go along with that defense?
And yet they only manage 4 wins? How the hell does this happen on a team stacked with talent? If you say it's all coaching then Andy Reid needs to make more money than Mahomes.
woody is how it happens
as long as that moron owns that team it will resemble its owner
A week or so ago 12 said his time in NY has been the best of his career. Now he's telling Pam Oliver he fell out of love with football but fell back into it in NY.
