Rodgers has every right to defend himself against these attacks.
I would LOVE to have Finley, Jennings, Rodgers and a few of the players that back Aaron Rodgers put into a room, and let the losers say this crap in front of him instead of behind his back.

And as far as “moving on” from all this, it’s the off season and this is really all that’s going on right now. It at least gives us something to talk about.
If a person is bothered by it, they don’t have to open and read the threads. They can choose to ignore them.

He acted like it really should have mattered to Aaron, of course Aaron said yesterday he was making a joke.

Cowherd then goes on to say that he had heard from different players.
He mentioned the time Aaron called Favre grandpa the first time he met him.

Also, when Aaron was a rookie, Donald Driver took Aaron aside and told him to tone it down in meetings after Aaron would sit up front and try to answer every question.

Hey boys, HE WAS A ROOKIE, they do stupid things sometimes.

Cowherd also mentioned Jeff Saturday.
He was with The Packers for a year?

Cowherd also said he was surprised Aaron didn't use a more reputable sportswriter to get his message out.

I think Aaron did just fine getting his message out.
I hope when the time comes, in about 4 years, James Jones and Jordy get into The Packer hall of fame together and Greg Jennings can cry some more.
I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Jennings knows how to call Rodgers as well. He could have just as easily called him if he was so hurt.
But of course then he wouldn’t be able to whine to anyone who will listen to him. He’d have to give up the ONLY reason any “news” person will give him the time of day.

The story is garbage. Greg Jennings and Jermichael Finley lack credibility. Didn’t the Packers offer Jennings a contract after 2012? He declined and went with Minnesota. Why offer him a contract if Aaron wants him gone? Seriously, this is sour grapes if ever there were any.

Lastly, perhaps this article will awake the sleeping giant.... I want to see Rodgers with a chip on his shoulder. Best way to shut up critics is win.

I believe the story goes like this:
Grog was offered an extension while in the last year of his contract. He declined thinking he was worth more. He ended up taking LESS to play for MN because it turns out he wasn't worth more and the packers offer was no longer on the table. Assuming the Packers decided his sister was just too much of a

It's actually, PFT, not PFF 😛 But, yes, any bad press on the Packers, Vikings fan Mike Florio picks it up and runs like hell with it. Then will cite his own articles often times too. Annoying, but smart tactic for "clicks" lol.

The only way I would think someone knows what was said on that call is if they were in the room and the call was on speaker phone. Otherwise, the source would have to be Mark Murphy himself, unless Aaron Rodgers somehow spoke up?

Ah, yeah. So used to typing PFF that I just skimmed over it multiple times.


Dunne should be DONE.
Just another clown trying to make a name for himself.
And how can ANYONE take Finley seriously? A guy that complained that Aaron Rodgers expected him to know his JOB?

Dozens of guys say everything was fine. Two maybe 3 well known shit talkers say otherwise. The media goes with what the idiots say and drag people and teams through the mud, just for some clicks. Just another example of the pile of trash our society has become.

Whether or not one agrees with what Jennings or Finley have to say, I don't think it's fair to characterize them as talking behind Rodgers' back. They are putting their names to their words. If anything, it's the anonymous sources who are talking behind Rodgers' back.

If what I'm saying doesn't make sense to you, ask yourself this: are the players defending Rodgers talking behind his back?

Very true. "Yellow journalism" as a term has been around since the 19th century and in practice long before then. There are dozens of old B&W movies from the 30's and 40's poking fun at the crass NYC newspapers who would say anything and write anything just to sell a newspaper. Back then newspapers had multiple editions every day.

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.

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

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : For now...
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers go about evaluating their "best five," OL coach Luke Butkus makes on thing clear: "Josh Myers is our center."
beast (8-May) : Though I'm a bit surprised letting go of CBs, I thought we needed more not less
beast (8-May) : It was confusing with two DB Anthony Johnson anyways
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers actually had Ray Lewis on the phone.
Zero2Cool (8-May) : Packers wanted to draft Ray Lewis. Ravens stole him.
Martha Careful (6-May) : Happy 93rd Birthday to the Greatest Baseball Player of All-Time...Willie Mays
Zero2Cool (6-May) : Walter Stanely's son
buckeyepackfan (6-May) : and released CB Anthony Johnson and DL Deandre Johnson and waived/injured WR Thyrick Pitts (thigh-rick).
buckeyepackfan (6-May) : The Green Bay Packers have signed WR Julian Hicks, OL Lecitus Smith (luh-SEET-us) and WR Dimitri Stanley

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Giannis Antetokounmpo is listed as out for tonight's game.
dfosterf (2-May) : Surprisingly low initially is my guess cap wise, but gonna pay the piper after that
dfosterf (2-May) : The number on Love is going to be brutal.
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.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out
Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!
