It’s hard to believe there so bad with the pieces they have even with Rodgers being old.
It's not that hard to believe really. Their coaching was always an issue and Aaron was always going to be a massive distraction given he has so much power in the organization. It isn't even about him playing awful as much as he just isn't that same guy that can carry the team anymore. His lack of mobility, which was always one of his strengths, is gone and as for the supporting cast, I kinda think a lot of the "talent" is somewhat over-rated. Their roster isn't some great juggernaut people think it is. It's a handful of decent pieces, Aaron's buddies that he brings in like Lazard and then a bunch of average to below average depth pieces. And AR's leadership is non-existent. They still could conceivably get to .500 and be a fringe play-off team but they were never really close to being the contender the media portrayed them to be.

No idea whether any of this is true but pretty wild if so

not sure exactly what I am reading, but I think Darnold is still a favorite to win the award.

you know as soon as they admit Rodgers isnt the Rodgers of a couple years ago.
They have quality RBs, turn into a running team with a decent Defense. Rodgers is good enough to be a game manager.
They just need to stop letting him lead the team like he did years ago.

Its like watching the Cowboys lose. Its so much fun. And Now DaVante Adams comes in after being on the team for 5 days and gives a speech about trying harder and working as a team. Isn't this the guy who just quit on his team in Vegas, pretending to have an injury??

I wonder how that speech went over. Judging by how they lost every game since he's been there I'm guessing not well.

Bradshaw had some avg regular season numbers, but came up big when it mattered…..
Namath barely did even that, one year only. But the guarantee was ballsy.
