No .. But he was also surrounded with the greatest defensive mind in NFL history… Who shut down a lot of teams He never won a SB with a strong WR unit. I stand by that statement. The only statement I’ve made in this conversation. Not much to argue, unless you think Branch and Brown make up a “strong” WR unit. And if you think they are, I agree to disagree. 1 Quote

I don’t think it’s a strong unit But in 2001 I don’t think it’s weak Brown was top 10 in receiving in 2001 and Patton was top 40… 31 teams That’s not bad actually especially for that era Edited August 2, 2022 by Buffalo716 1 1 Quote

Rodgers has to resort to this stuff and his usual drama to remain relevant in the public mind. Aaron don't care... Having the #1 scoring Offense in the NFL didn't work out too well either. Jones with 9 rushing and 2 receiving TDs, All Pro Adams with 115 catches and 18 TDs, Tonyan 52/59 and 11 TDs, M V-S 690 yards (21 YPC!) and 6 TDs. You're right, what a waste... I see what you’re saying, you could consider Aaron Rodgers career “a waste” due to lack of titles with good regular season teams. However, he consistently puts his team in position to make Super Bowl runs. I don’t know if he can do that with his supporting cast this season. That’s what I’d consider a waste. I realize Rodgers rubs a lot of people the wrong way, but I don’t fully understand the criticism he gets for his playoff failures. I’ve never heard anyone call Favre a disappointment for winning just one Lombardi. Quote

Peyton Manning had many such seasons. 7 times his team went one and done. No chance Packers get there this year…but I doubt Rodgers cares at this point. He got paid. He was fine with Adams left. He’s happy to be that “im a complex and inscrutable character no one will ever truly understand or appreciate” guy Quote

CorkScrewHill Posted August 4, 2022 Posted August 4, 2022 I wonder if the league will provide some incentives to shut the h up in the way of a suspension since he admitted to taking an illegal drug. More of a concern is the young people who will look at his words crediting this drug with his excellent performance. Do young people without all of the benefits of the large network around me him try to emulate him. He is such an oblivious, self-centered (self-love is the nice way to say it I suppose) person. He cannot go away soon enough Quote

He’s happy to be that “im a complex and inscrutable character no one will ever truly understand or appreciate” guy That’s fair, I’m just saying the list of guys who couldn’t “will their team to the SB” is far greater than those who could. Rodgers does have one Lombardi. The list of great QB’s with one or fewer titles is extensive. Winning a title is about so much more than QB. Manning won his second title when he was completely washed, and Elway won multiple titles in the twilight of his career, not his prime. Greatness at the QB position almost guarantees winning a lot of games, but doesn’t guarantee titles imo. 1 Quote
