Robert Saleh is a blowhard douche

What is it about Aaron Rodgers that gets people going?

 

Nobody was talking about the Jets last season. Now they the biggest story in sports. All I see in Rodgers is a talented QB who has underachieved in the playoffs. If you look behind the hype he hasn't been to a SB in over a decade!

 

Guy gets more hype than Tom Brady.

He's better than Brady. Comparing players using team statistics in a game with 22 starters and even more contributors is a fool's errand. 1 truly objective stat for their playoffs is Rodgers career passer rating 100.1, Brady 89.8, Rodgers' rating is significantly better.

One of the reasons Brady had more success in the playoffs is he cared more about winning then money unlike Rodgers. Brady took team friendly deals to help build the rest of the team where as Rodgers just wanted as much money as he could get then would complain about how poor the rest of the team was.

Sound familiar?

All starts with the O-line. If they have problems this week, then I might be worried. Mind you, that if it's only one person fuging up, that perhaps can be fixed, but if the entire line is inconsistent, then we may have a problem.

I really hope that this team stops sucking soon so that this cringy fanbase-wide inferiority complex that's festered over the past 5 years fugs off. I get that we wasted a lot of talent and it's been a brutal ride but at any given moment we have like 2-3 dedicated threads shitting on players/coaches that barely even know we exist. In this case he literally didn't even say anything offensive, he said that he felt the second practice is often unproductive because the team that felt beaten would usually play worse as a reaction to the day previously thanks to negative emotions. Which could apply to both teams, but of course our fans took it like it was a personal attack against us lol. Can't wait for the random Rodgers hate thread as well that i'm sure will come week 1 of the season because some journalist spun his words for outrage clicks. Y'all would absolutely hate Cam if he hadn't been a Panther.

    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
