Rodgers is the most overrated QB in the history of football. He is probably the greatest talent as a QB and highly skilled at his position. However, I was never afraid of the guy when we play against the Packers. He would just throw for a bunch of yards, not tear up our defense like a Drew Brees, Peyton Manning or Brady. You would think that Rodgers would have more than 1 SB ring. Rodgers has always had weapons around him. Then Green Bay was able to give him a really good defense for years. It was hilarious to see the football talking heads get so mad about how GB didn’t give Rodgers any weapons during the draft last week. Ask Cam about not having weapons and protection.

Compared to John Elway, or Terry Bradshaw?

Top 10 in many lists 

Top 15 in just about every list. 
Is he a prick ? Yes. Doesn’t take away from his numbers though . 

I never thought Rodgers was that great of a QB playing football in the NFL. Don’t care too much if he’s an asshole. Great elite talent but not a great QB.

I can say that perhaps the nicest Panther I ever encountered was Jake Delhomme.  I was walking my children to an OTA (under the bridge) and he saw us and waved like Forrest Gump from his shrimp boat.  Then, after practice, he came up to us and started talking to us.  Nice guy.  My kids had full sized autograph helmets and wanted to get everyone they could--but Jake just stood there and talked and talked.  He was great, but we wanted to get rid of him because a few players were approaching.  That did not stop him.  I finally gave up and just decided to enjoy whatever it was he was talking about. I kept thinking, "Does he know me?  Does he think I am someone else?"  But that is just the way he is--he did the same thing to another group. 

He worked hard to get where he was in life--an NFL starting QB---and he loved and cherished every minute of it.  I wish they all had that kind of appreciation for their supporters.

 

This makes my heart happy.

I bet that Cam would do something for my old ass if I asked

Had a teammate that I hired away from a Charlotte company and he had a hilarious story about some hot dog cart downtown that his lunch break never synced with. One day he was able to get in line and was there for a hot minute when he swears that Cam came up with a couple of dudes and straight cut the line. He raised a fuss and they blew him off and folks behind him kept trying to tell him, "That's Cam!" (he's a British national)

On the flip side, he had said that his entire time in the area (he was only there for 2 - 4 years iirc) he had heard that while Cam could come across as arrogant and dismissive towards other adults, he genuinely cares about kids and makes sure to give them his time when able.

EDIT: The story is much, much better when you have a 5'6" British mixed martial artist built like a swole up pitbull swearing a storm and being so deeply upset about the hot dog he almost never got to have.

We all could find positive and negative things in every person. My sister and GF used to work in uptown CLT. So they had a studio on Graham St. I used to go to Target and Chipotle all the time. I met Drayton Florence and Fozzy Whittaker shopping together at Target. They were very kind. Both could tell that I knew who they were and how excited I was. Spoke to them for a short minute and even took a couple pictures with my GF and I. Later on, I met Luke Kuechly at Chipotle. I was right behind him in line. Asked to take a picture with him which I did get. But, Luke acted like he didn’t really want to talk and seemed annoyed. It kind of rub me the wrong way. Made me regret getting the picture because I’m such a huge Luke Kuechly fan.

To be fair, most people liked Favre.

General consensus regarding Aaron Rodgers is that he's an a--hole.

But is he sending d**k pics to Jenn Sturger?
Or do we need to wait for the Jets to pick Rodgers up after he's ousted in a season or two :thinking:

I had heard about Fozzy and Florence both being very humble and likable. Shame about Luke tho.

The team around Rodgers isn't as good as he makes it look.

      Most hated teams

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      After Bountygate and the information that came out on the Saints owners shielding pedophile priests in New Orleans it will forever be the Saints numero uno for me. FUG THE SAINTS! I hope this is just the beginning of a long term period of suffering for that shitty organization run by even shittier human beings. #2.Pats/Belicheat #3. Falcons (Mike Vick years then Matt Ryan/Julio running it up) Ryan pooping his pants and 28-3 def makes my bad days always better just thinking of those. #4 Pretty much any franchise fan base thats obnoxious Steelers, Eagles, Bills, Jets, Giants, Cowboys, etc.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By BEASTfromdaEAST · Posted

      Thank God DM used that #8 pick on a bona fide WR1 and not some bum pass rushing prospect like Stewart or someone else. I believe Tet is legit WR1 material and going forward will be our long term answer at that position since we desperately were in need of one once they traded away DJ Moore.  Tet could possibly end up even being better long term than someone who I respect a ton as a WR in Moore. Evans has been a pleasant surprise and great TE/FB depth piece going forward who could make the most of his opportunities.  Any good offense worth a damn in the NFL has 3 TEs that can do multiple things and being scared by Ian Thomas play for years should makes us all appreciate what Evans is quietly doing as a ROOKIE at one of the hardest positions to learn at the pro level.  Keep cooking DM. This season is not over obviously but seeing some growth out of young talent finally is a breathe of fresh fuggin air for once.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
