didnt Rodgers keep certain guys on the team that the Pack was gonna let go?
Honestly seems like it but not hundred percent sure as I dont follow the Packers.
I want to say I read something awhile back on a rift where the packers had to keep some because of Rodgers. or do I have it backwards?

I think a lot had to do with his leadership of the team being questioned.

When they fail it's their fault (player and FO) but never Rodgers
Did you notice they were 4-1 and playoff bound the year he was hurt and finished 3-8? That his WRs fall off a cliff when he doesn't play, but look like all Pros when he does?

well to be a fair a horrible back up is a horrible back up. Not sure you get to put that on the WRs. A lot of teams if the starter goes down the WRs arent gonna have good stats.

Agree, but they also aren't Pro Bowlers with the starter.I don't think it's coincidence no matter who plays WR/TE in GB, NE, NO, Pittsburgh, Indy the offense never skips a beat (so long as the QB is healthy).

For 10 years (less for Luck)? Top 15 based on what?

Flacco and Bortles have been top 15. Losing them the same as Brees, Rodgers, Luck, Ben or Brady going down to the passing game?

Apologies, as for whatever reason when I pulled this up they had them in order of attempts and I agree, that is in no way how one should rank QBs....

2016 NFL Passing | Pro-Football-Reference.com

However, Tannehill is top 15 based on QB rating in 2016 and are Keenum and McCown in 2017. Fitzpatrick in 2018

Losing them the same as Brees, Ben, Luck, etc?

Outside of Foles, yes the WRs won't do well with the back up QB
