A majority of Packer fans have never experienced a season without Favre or Rodgers as quarterback. Ask them who David Whitehurst is or Lynn Dickey or Don Majkowski is and they wouldn't have a clue.

He looked like a shell of his former self against Washington but with his salary, getting talent outside of the draft is going to be really hard to do.
If I were GB? I'd be calling Denver on what it would take to acquire Jeudy...
and Denver should be in a sell mode, but they are stuck with mr unlimited and selling off his weapons is only going to make that trade look even worse to a fan base that has to watch that shit team for the next few years.
Denver is not in sell mode. Yet. I think everyone is overreacting to what has been, admittedly, very bad offense to start the season. But it's funny how things change. If not later this year, then probably next.
I know a lot of people don't like Wilson, but there's a reason he's a 9X Pro Bowler and Super Bowl winner. The Broncos are not going to start selling off his weapons a handful of games into his first season.

You are right and wrong.
I think you are right in that they aren't going to start selling off weapons since the ink on his huge contract is barely dry. But I think Wilson is washed up. Mentally he never was the Tom Brady type, to put everything else aside to win one more year. He has already become the star and his name means more than winning games IMO.

I think some of Wilson's success in Seattle has to credited to the coaching. Look at Geno, when's the last anyone gave him any thought as being successful in this league. I think Carroll and company had a lot to do with Wilson's success.

I guess we'll have to wait and see, won't we.
Personally, I think it's hard for a veteran QB who has spent 10 years in the same system to go to a new system, with a new head coach, who has unquestionably made some ridiculously bad calls....and just be the same top-level QB he's always been.
I could be wrong about this, and if I am, feel free to repost this, but I think we'll see a better Wilson later this year. And a much better Wilson next year.

Some. Every NFL player is a composite of his talent, his coaching and the players around him. But you don't go to 9 Pro Bowls, win passing titles and Super Bowls just because you have a good coach.
I really think there's a lot of overreaction going on right now (hey, what else is new?!). I think a lot of it is due to the fact that people just don't like him very much, so they enjoy watching him fail.
I could be wrong (it happened once in the 90s. ). But I tend to think at some point in the near future we'll all look back and say "remember when we all thought Wilson was washed?"
I've thought Wilson's game has been in decline for a few years now, his mobility isn't what it once was and its affecting his ability to run around until the defense gets tired and then chuck it up... or maybe it's that mile high thing he hasn't got acclimated to yet.

He threw 40 TDs in 2020 and had the finger last year where he missed a few games but still had 25 TDs to 6 INTs.
He's still a good passer even if he doesn't have the same escapability as he did when he was younger. I think he's pressing and has an inexperienced HC and play caller that isn't helping matters. Combine that with adjusting to a new offense and you have that mess of an offense.

This year and '23, Rodgers' cap hit is less than Cousins'. The big money doesn't hit the fan until '24.

Most times they are contrived garbage actually. So much dumb shit out there but once in awhile, there's some gold. Have to keep panning to find the nuggets.
