Rodgers would have been a first round bust with the 49'ers.

A different Offensive coordinator every year on a rebuilding and unstable team.

The first two years Rodgers was a very poor QB. I let being bad as a rookie go but little improvement in year 2 really angered me.
I remember I used to ask is he heir apparent or apparent error?

Had they drafted a good tackle in 2005 instead of Rodgers they would have been a better team and not had the great 2006 draft.

Since 2005 I have come to trust Ted Thompson.

So these what ifs never can isolate one variable and say what might have been because there are so many things that happen and keep happening.

I agree. While Rodgers has an amazing amount of talent and intelligence, he is a product of his environment. He was pushed in the right direction in GB from day 1. If he went to SF he would have been a starter right away and it would have gone similarly to how it went with Alex Smith. Sitting for the first 3 years in GB was huge for him. He learned a ton by watching and studying instead of being thrown into it and learning by trial and error.

Possibly sitting home like the rest of us, waiting for the Championship game.

Depends who we replace him with. Flynn did a great job against a Behemoth New England in an away game. Our QB coach does very well at preparing his guys. But yes, not having Rodgers is something that I don't want to think about.

If we don't pick Rodgers.. it is truly hard how to predict the last 3 years would have been sculpted.

Or he would have choked in the NFCCG by tossing up a duck.

I wonder what would have happened if Rodgers started in '07. He proved ready to step up when he out played the old guy who got knocked out of the Cowboys game.

With another year starting under his belt, maybe we get a first round bye and home field in the the playoffs last year.

Who knows.

Hey, it worked, though it took me awhile to find that icon. It's buried in amongst all the others, right next to the all-important skull and crossbones. Thanks for your patience, guys. I'm no good at this computer stuff.

Martha Careful (10-May) : 1. this is true of all our linemen. 2. His run block is fine. 3. If all OL played like he has, we would win SB.
beast (10-May) : Meyers pass blocking is really good, his run blocking is really not.
Zero2Cool (9-May) : Packers have claimed DE Spencer Waege off of waivers from the 49ers and waived DT Rodney Mathews.

beast (9-May) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.
Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways

Zero2Cool (2-May) : May 3rd. Extension day for Jordan Love. (soonest)
Zero2Cool (1-May) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!
earthquake (1-May) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage
beast (1-May) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position
dfosterf (1-May) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.
dfosterf (1-May) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.
Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl
Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.
dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left
dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.
