From Lambeau to Lombardi, Holmgren, McCarthy and LaFleur and from Starr to Favre, Rodgers and now Jordan Love we’re talking Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers football. This Packers Forum is the place to talk NFL football and everything Packers. So, pull up a keyboard, make yourself at home and let’s talk some Packers football.
People say that a lot but I think that's just his face.
Who? the only person I've ever heard say it is DRJ, and he says it because he doesn't like Lafleur, Rodgers, Gutekunst, Murphy, Russ Ball, the Groundskeeper, the Custodian, basically everyone not named Rich Bisaccia, and I'am not even sure he likes him
I remember people saying it 2 years ago when Rodgers started doing this, and then again last offseason, and a few random points when we'd lose. Maybe it was DRJ every time...
I was just razzing DRJ some , some do have the opinion that Lafleur is to mild mannered to be a great coach and hasn't been stern enough with Rodgers, but I think thats over blown, Rodgers imo is no different now then he was with McCarthy, QB's as smart and game savoy as Rodgers all want game management and decision making input, I don't see anything abnormal concerning that between he and Lafleur.
as to Lafleur being afraid to move on from Rodgers with a basically un proven Love, well what coach wouldn't give pause to that?
If your still begging the 39 year old to come back, who takes up all your cap, who threatens retirement every time he doesn’t get his way…when you have a first round draft pick on the roster waiting to take over….
You are scared of life without the pain in a**. Let’s be honest.
Are you relying on the deleted tweet posted by someone bud fox referred to as “some guy” for your evidence of this occurring?
For this instance, yes. But I’ve seen it timeless times myself with own eyes.
what did you see???? and when has he threatened retirement, your creating here say because as far as I know Rodgers never did threaten retirement, and his cap hit is lower then a t least a half doz other QB's.

rodgers has consistently said retirement was a very possible option, pretty much every chance he gets, for a couple seasons now.

I didn't even comment. Just liked your curious post about it. Was Texas.

Flashback to Gute and MLF high fiving in the war room when they got their guy.
“The Packers sure hope Aaron Rodgers doesn’t want to come back,” said Eisen when running down a list of rumors he heard at the combine,” said Eisen. “They sure hope that when he comes up with his decision, it is ‘I wish to retire’ or ‘I wish to be traded elsewhere.’ They do not want his response to be ‘Let’s run it back.’
(...)
“When I say I heard that over and over and over again, it’s just like ‘You have no idea what’s going on over there.’
“I cannot sit here and say I have facts from ground zero in Wisconsin and, clearly, Rodgers has told you through his many appearances on McAfee’s show that nobody, like a very, very small subset of people know what he’s thinking.
I’m saying, hot rumor at the combine is the Packers want an answer from Rodgers to be ‘No more.’ Cause I don’t think [they] want to be the ones to end the relationship.”
“Most other nations don't allow a terrorist to be their leader.”
“... Yet so many allow their leaders to be terrorists.”—Magneto
Yet Gute gave Rodgers a contract that only hurts trade value. I could see packers ending up paying some of that huge contract just to make the trade compensation decent
So they know what they need to do, but they scared to do it.
Much courage.
That's what I was thinking. These are the kinds of situations where not having an owner can present problems IMO.
You are exactly right, great point.
There should be no fear. You get a total pass when you move on from Rodgers. You're eating the dead cap, you've got a starting QB who most people would expect to struggle a bit. And you don't have an owner, so you've got at least two years to make a run before the brass even thinks about moving on.

The fear is that you may never get back to what you are kicking out the door
