Earthquake thoughtfully asked:1. I feel like I used to feel teaching when one of my favorite students graduated. I'd feel happy for them, I was glad I had the opportunity to watch them grow, but I would still miss them. I am feeling the same thing about Rodgers. We were all blessed to have him. For many many years, he elevated this team well about the talent level he had to work with. As I said in another thread, I hope he win the SB there (and plays 65% of the plays.)
2. I feel eager to see what Love can do. We (talking to myself here...I) have to have reasonable expectations however. Rodgers went 6-10 IIRC his first year. He is physically a tremendous talent. The question is his CPU and heart. I think he has 'it'...but we will see.
3. I think players will blossom without Rodgers sucking all the air out of the room. He WAS always the story. I think guys will be able to step up from a public persona perspective, and it will be interesting to see who leads.
4. For the coaching staff, there is not more "Rodgers changed the play"...or...."Rodgers wanted a hybrid system". Let's see how good you are with these groceries...your jobs depend on it.
