Brett Favre said that he saw Aaron Rodgers was ready to go during the 2007 training camp and what not. This is backed up by how many times he mentioned Rodgers during his retirement (1st one) conference. 

While listening to Rodgers on Pat McAfee it got me wondering, does Rodgers feel the same way about Jordan Love? Maybe Love made that leap from year two to year three that indicates he's ready?

Why does this matter? For years Rodgers has said how much it means to spend his entire career with one franchise. He cited guys like Kobe Bryant, Derek Jeter, etc.

So, I speculate, not only is Rodgers mulling over retiring, he's probably also mulling over if he wants to continue playing it MIGHT be at the cost of playing his entire career for one franchise. Basically weighing his desire to go through the "grind" again and then sacrificing his dream of playing for one franchise his entire career.

Also, his tone when he said "they drafted Jordan to replace me" kind of came off a little bitter.

THIS WHOLE THING has been about Aaron wanting to finish his career here. If Gutey had balls, he'd have held it over Aaron's head as leverage. Aaron NEVER wanted to be traded. That was just typical Aaron Rodgers drama and manipulation. Should have made Aaron take a pay cut to stay. 

But Gutey's not like that.

Absolutely Love's progress is forcing Rodgers hand, and I think Rodgers has even indirectly admitted this...

As some of his comments have suggested if he continues to play, he knows the Packers will have a choice to make between Love and himself, and it's sort of sounded like Rodgers thinks they'll go with the young guy... as that's part of the business.

And rumors earlier this year, suggested Rodgers talked about coming back in 2023 (and Rodgers has called Love a little brother to him, they talk and seem to be open with plans with each other)... 

But rumors said Rodgers talks of coming back in 2023 are what got those rumors that should Rodgers come back, Love will request a trade.


So I think both Rodgers and Love are forcing each other hands and forcing Gute's/Packers hands... as if they both come back, tough choices will have to be made and I think all of them know this... and based on the way they're talking, no one is 100% how those tough choices will go... or if they do know (and Gute might) they're not speaking it publicly.

dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this

dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
