Drama Queen At It Again
@"JimmyinSD" said:@"MaroonBells" said:@"StickyBun" said:@"purplefaithful" said: My $$ is he's back in GB.Not sure if they'll win another ring while he's there or not? I would have thought if it was going to happen? The last 2 seasons would have been it.
I think he goes back to GB as well. He'll be 39 years old in December, so something will have to give with his physical skills.
I know you and PF are convinced he'll be back in Cheeseland, but I disagree. As I've said before, I'm convinced the only reason he came back this year was due to a verbal agreement wtih the Packers that they would trade him the following season. In fact, I think the terms might already be in place for a trade to Denver. I could be wrong. We'll just have to see I guess.
I heard an interesting take on this yesterday, at 39 Rogers has made all the money he needs to live on, has all kinds of personal records, but sitting at only 1 damn lombardi has to chaff his ass, if he is really wanting to go to some place where he can compete the last couple years for a SB... why would you pick Denver when they are at best the 3rd best team in their division that is part of an already loaded AFC in terms of up and coming QBs and teams. Their logic is the road to the superbowl is currently likely easier is you stay in the NFC, and GBay is very unlikely to give him the chance to knock the packers out of the playoffs, so they arent likely willing to deal him in conference, the conclusion was is if he is really motivated to win another super bowl, he will end up staying in gbay.
I think you pick Denver because of the relationships there and the good amount of cap space they have. Granted a good amount of that goes away with Rodgers' contract but they have some quality players on both sides of the ball. Packers do too, but we have no idea who they can resign and who may be a cap casualty. I would think the roster certainty would play another factor, but if Rodgers goes back to GB then I would hope he's notified beforehand who they plan to try to bring back and who will be gone

I think more than anything, Rodgers wants to go to a team who isn't opposed to adding a 2nd receiver. And there are many who would argue that Denver is closer to a Super Bowl than Green Bay.
Besides you and the rrest of he mile high as kite city , who thinks Denver is closer? They got some decent players, but they aren't even in the top 2 to win their own division let alone the superbowl. Now rogers would improve those odds, but with him comes a likely monster contract and now Denver is having to decide who to move on without.
His first thought was probably more like intense gratitude for Charmin… ;) B)

Head Cheese Dave Synikin was on KFAN talk radio yesterday:
Thinks AR decision in next 3-5 days (not weeks)
50/50 he goes back to GB
He himself if 50/50 that he wants AR back
Best chance to win a ring is in GB
GB franchise has done well to position itself as it's done what it can to keep him, if he leaves? Its on AR, not them
IF AR stays, thinks Love can bring GB a 3rd or 4th rd pick in a weak QB Class
GB, Rams and 49'ers are the best in NFC, then Dallas and after that a crapshoot (I'd agree)

He's talking about '22 right? Cuz it sure sounds like he's talking about '21. Coaching changes, player trades, free agency, contracts and cap space are going to have a lot to say about who finishes at the top. 49ers will likely be rolling with a 2nd year QB. The Packers with Love. Good luck with that.
Synekin got on KFAN and talked up the Packer Party line...so insightful :s
Greg Jennings spoke his mind about Aaron today on First Thing's First and boy is it refreshing to hear former teammates like him call him out publicly.
GB restructured DB created $11MM in cap space. I thought they already adjusted his contract. Today showed me how little I truly know about nfl contracts lolz #imadumbf*ck
After watching the Green Bay Packers ride exceptional quarterback play to another 13 regular-season victories and another playoff appearance in 2021, it's time to reprise the familiar lament of Vikings fans:
Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers have been the only quarterbacks atop the Green Bay depth chart since 1992 and … it's just too bad that the Vikings got stuck with one of these guys.
Somehow, the Packers have won just two Super Bowls since 1992 despite having this advantage over the rest of the league for three decades. The Patriots benefited from Tom Brady for only two decades, and made much better use of having a dominant player at the position.
The price for the Packers' two Super Bowls: Egomania, manipulation, off-field embarrassments, and a lot of playoff failures.
Packers fans will counter that the Vikings and their fans don't have the right to criticize a franchise that has acquired great quarterbacks and won two Super Bowls. They're right. The Vikings' decades-long brand of elevated mediocrity is due to a failure to do exactly what the Packers have done with Favre and Rodgers, and the Vikings' best chance to win a Super Bowl might have arrived when Favre led the Vikings in 2009.
As Rodgers cynically trolls his franchise and the public for a second straight offseason, following a season in which he lied about his vaccination status and missed a game because of a positive COVID test, the question for Packers fans is: Aren't you tired of this?
Favre played for the Vikings for two seasons, requiring hand-holding, massive amounts of cash, begging teammates and training camp avoidance in both seasons.
He backstabbed Brad Childress, the guy who brought him in, and didn't seem fully committed in his second season, a disaster for the franchise.
Off the field, Favre allegedly sent unwanted graphic photos of himself to a sideline reporter. Last year, he was forced to repay $600,000 in state welfare money he accepted for speeches he didn't give, as part of a fraud scheme.
In his home state, one of the poorest states in America.
Media reports in November noted that Favre still owes $228,000 in interest to the state.
Favre made the 2009 season a thrill, but how can anybody, in Wisconsin or Minnesota, feel good about having cheered for this guy?
Favre gave way to Rodgers, who initially was a sympathetic figure in Green Bay because of his draft-day slide and Favre's dismissiveness toward him.
Now Rodgers is a proud anti-vax disinformation artist who refused to work with his team last offseason and is dragging out his decision for next season. We don't know whether he'll return to the Packers, force a trade or retire, and that's the way he wants it.
It isn't enough for Rodgers that Green Bay has made him rich and has supported him with exceptional talent and coaching. The Packers' audacity in drafting what they hoped would be the next Aaron Rodgers led to a level of pettiness that is almost unprecedented.
The Vikings have been stuck in a competitive rut — too good to start over and rebuild, not good enough to make a realistic run at a Super Bowl title.
The Packers, with one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time, are stuck, too, even if on a higher plane.
Let's not forget what Rodgers did at the beginning and end of the 2021 season:
In Week 1, he produced three points in the season opener, after failing to prepare himself in the offseason.
In the Packers' first playoff game, he produced 10 points in a loss.
The Packers are doing everything they can to keep Rodgers.
Given all of the problems he has caused them, you have to wonder if that has more to do with Jordan Love's slow development than Rodgers' talent.

Lol...
Many wont agree with his politics and takes, but I've always found him entertaining and funny as hell.
