Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers' plans for the future were a major storyline during the offseason leading into the 2021 season and his return to the team has gone well on the field, but it hasn't led to any decisions about what he'll do in 2022. Rodgers told reporters on Wednesday that he has not made [more]

Retiring is the worst option for the Packers. Playing another year or two is the best option. They can re-work his 22 deal to minimize the cap hit.
Trading him for a few picks is the second best.
Letting him walk for nothing be it retirement or as a FA is the worst.

I would rather him retire than play somewhere else. I hope he sticks around for 3-4 more years. I know he’s got it in him.

He will request a trade. I hope I am wrong, as he could probably play another 5 years at this level, especially with the rules in place to protect quarterbacks. Nevertheless, he is not the type of person to forgive or get over things easily. This isn’t a criticism of his personality, but rather an observation on how he is wired. He’ll likely use the Packers drafting Jordan Love as fuel for his fire until he retires. It’s not any different than him using the fact that Alex Smith was taken over him as fuel. It’s just who he is. Now, the question I ask is will the Packers comply? He is under contract next year. GB could drag this out again, which I suspect they would.

He's trying to create the narrative that HE has the power to decide. Matt and Gutey drafted Love, because Aaron can be an insufferable douche. They were sick of dealing with Aaron's shit.

Aaron has orchestrated this entire situation from day 1 to prevent the team from ditching him. From becoming a Bucks owner to demanding that giant contract, his whole purpose was to make it harder for the team to move on from him.

Now he wants to act like they're begging him to stay. 😄

Love has been getting all the reps in practice, since Thanksgiving. Dude is gonna be ready.

I have to admit that I am catching the sentimental bug watching the recent interviews with Rodgers and with the TD record. It would be great to have him play for a couple more years at this caliber and retire as a Packer. The cost of that extension may be the long term success of the Packers team with Love though. Maybe that is ok if Aaron can get them back to the Super Bowl.

What is odd is I think at his age that a coach like Lafleur is the best situation for Aaron. The money ever making sense and still being a contender seems like a non-existent situation unfortunately for Aaron staying with the Packers. I think this is all just media clicks. Aaron has too many new chips on his shoulder if traded to retire. He will want to set other goals and definitely play against Green Bay before his career comes to a close.

Zero2Cool (5h) : because he's 1st

Mucky Tundra (6h) : Myers isn't even the 3rd best C on the roster atm

Martha Careful (7h) : I am not sure I understand the Myers hate. He was consistently our third best lineman. RG and LT were worse.

beast (12h) : Just saying I don't think moving Myers would help Myers.

beast (12h) : Center is usually considered the easiest position physically if you can handle the snap stuff.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : Bust it is then

Zero2Cool (8-May) : Context. Sounds like Myers won't be cross-trained. C or bust.

Mucky Tundra (8-May) : @BookOfEli_NFL Packers pass game coordinator, Jason Vrable said that Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks shared a placed in Florida while train

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 (6-May) : Petty, but it's annoying me how the NFL is making the schedule release an event.

Mucky Tundra (4-May) : @mattschneidman Matt LaFleur on how he tore his pec: “Got in a fight with the bench press. I lost.”

Zero2Cool (3-May) : Jordan Love CAN sign an extension as of today. Might tak weeks/months though

Zero2Cool (2-May) : Season officially ending tonight for Bucks ... sad face

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!

packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Thanks Mucky and whomever created topcos for each pick!

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Insane about Kingsley
