Rodgers not happy about losing his coach

Fissure in the Locker Room? :)

Wonder if @Vanguard83 cares?

And wah wah wah!  Poor guy wasn't consulted about a staff decision.  Must not realize he is a player and not the GM or head coach.  Arrogant little piss ant.

only a matter of time before he wears Purple. 

2018-2019 vikings go with Teddy, find out he’s not the guy. Zim Defense is the reason why Rodgers cant make the Super Bowl

2020 Rodgers joins Vikings

That would be even worse that Favre as a Viking.  Obviously talented QB, but obviously arrogant and self centered ass.   No thanks.

I believe Rodgers can opt out of his contract this offseason

Lol. That's the part that stuck out for me. Why is he supposed to be consulted?

Talked with a Puker fan at lunch...in essence, these types of decisions should be "passed by" the likes of a Brady or Rodgers (/eyeroll). But he agreed...what could Van Pelt really coach Rodgers about?  Erin is upset his "buddy" got let go.

I guess we'll see how much the Red Head improves in the Queen City. ;)

Brady has probably earned that right.  Rodgers, not so much.

Rogers is the packers,   he is more important to that teams success than the HC, GM, or anybody else on that team.  I dont know if there is a team more dependent on  a single player than Gbay.

True, but I don't think that is a reason to run things past him.  I contrast him to Brady because one elevates everyone around him, the other... well, doesn't.  He simply has too much ego and I doubt he would be objective, putting the team ahead of himself.

That team is better when Rogers plays, I dont like the assbag,  but I am not going to say he doesnt make his teammates better players by being on the field.  Brady has had a better coach, and better players around him,  and plays in a traditionally weaker division,  I think Brady has benefitted very much from being a patriot,  likely more than rogers has been helped by the packer organization ( at least since favre left)

Rodgers is very important to the team, no doubt.  But his arrogance just seems like he doesn't care about the team.  Brady has made lots of pedestrian WRs look good.  Rodgers throws people under the bus when they fail.

I am not arguing that he isnt an ass hat,  just saying he is likely the single most important player to any team in the league in terms of wins and losses.

But is that reason to run coaching decisions by him?  That was my point.  What has he done to show he cares about anything other than himself?  You don't keep coaches just to make on guy happy.  Might be a reason to get rid of the coach just to get someone willing to challenge him a bit rather than be his buddy.

The Puke would sink like a lead balloon without Rodgers. They know it and he knows it. When a player knows his great individual value to the success of a team they are going to have a god complex like he does. That being said, I find it pretty humorous that McCarthy didn't "consult" with Rodgers on this coaching move. Seems like a power play...Rodgers has it and McCarthy wants it. 

Oh I hope he continues his hissy fit over it.  But think about Hundley, how did he progress?  Was Van Pelt improving that room or just buddies with Mr Dippy?   I disagree that he isn't a total lunkhead.  I think this news bit proves that. 

Maybe it was petty that the Packers didn't resign him, just like it was petty for them to deny interviews.  But a player making a power play move like this is pure lunkhead.  Even if he is right.

Kinda reminds me of Peterson standing up for Frazier.  Some coaches make players too comfortable and they don't improve. 

Back when he shared an adjoining room with Clay he would always be in the loop, even down to the miniature shampoos
This has schism written all over it
