Aaron Rodgers Lost!

[Natal]

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Omaha Steve (a host of the General Discussion forum).

Sure, the Packers had already secured the No.1 seed in the NFC, but he started the game, so he must have had some investment in the outcome! C-C-Could it be that Holy Aaron is NOT the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ???

Fact Check - Rodgers is an overrated One-Ringer who won the Big Game a decade ago, and has been cruising on it ever since!

Personally, I'm hoping he gets blown out in the first game he plays in the postseason. Maybe then His Devoted Acolytes will finally get the message and STFU!!!

1. I was once a Packers fan who was lukewarm on AR. Now they can all go to hell

as far as I'm concerned. I'll be very happy when AR is no longer at the helm, and I don't really care how it happens. Quit, fired, injury? fine by me.

[Celerity]

2. I hope he gets crushed in the playoffs. He should have been banned for his lies.

[luv2fly]

3. Likely MVP this year

Go Pack!

[demtenjeep]

4. Mahomes

far better

[DenaliDemocrat]

22. Absolutely NOT!

Mahomes has horrible mechanics but huge athletic abilities that allow him to compensate - until he doesn’t. Mahomes’s game will deteriorate much quicker as age and wear and tear slowly chip away at that athletic advantage. Unless Patrick devotes the time to clean up his mechanical game, he’s not going to play at an elite level until he’s 40.

27. Lol, ok! Nt

[USALiberal]

6. He is an ass! Nt

[Skittles]

7. that guy is a fucking asshole

[luv2fly]

14. And an awesome quarterback

Go Pack go!

[Skittles]

17. sorry you value sports over public health

the man is a lying freak

[BlackSkimmer]

19. This. nt

[luv2fly]

21. There is Aaron the quarterback..

And Aaron the flawed human. I'm capable of discriminating between the two, and I am an unapologetic Packer fan.

Go Pack!

[CrackityJones75]

23. Do you do that for people of all walks of life or just pro sports players?

And by “that” I mean rationalize a wrong to justify it in your mind.

The guy is an asshole. His own family can’t stand him.

[luv2fly]

25. Agreed, he's an ass

But as a Packer fan, I admire his athleticism as he hopefully leads us to the Superbowl.

There are a lot of assholes out there, some we know of, others we don't. Day after day we read from people here who shop at Amazon although Bezos is an ass, who shop at Walmart knowing fully well that Walmart's business model has ruined small towns and destroyed small businesses all over America for decades, and likely a host of other scenarios that go both recognized as well as unrecognized.

Aaron is just visible, and so it's easy for people to pour on the hate.

[Cuthbert Allgood]

12. It should be Cupp

Triple Crown of receiving is very rare.

[ProfessorGAC]

26. Fantastic Season

But, I think it's nearly impossible for a receiver to win season MVP.
The voters will always consider that a receiver is nothing until the QB throws the ball in their direction.
Of course, really good receivers get the ball thrown their way because they're great at getting open & will shag contested balls.
But, I can't imagine any wide receiver ever having a good enough season to get enough votes for MVP in this age of the quarterback. Even one who has had the outstanding season that Cupp had.

30. Jonathan Taylor for the win!

My favorite day of the year is when the Packers get thrown out of the playoffs. 🏈

[luv2fly]

31. Taylor is awesome

I enjoyed watching him as a Badger, and have enjoyed watching him in the few Colts games I've seen.

Your take on the Packers is pretty much how I feel about Brady and the Bucs.

[forthemiddle]

32. As a die hard Vikings fan

I am ready for the Packers to end their dynasty! LOL

[Chautauquas]

5. Not an important game

I'm glad they pulled him from the game and put the other QB in. I don't like Rodgers but I love the Packers so I want him healthy for post-season games. Go Packers!

[Ellipsis]

9. Yup. I thought the backup QB did an admiral job.

Good things to come... once he mellows out.

[milestogo]

15. He threw two interceptions.

I hope the Packers dump him soon.

[CrackityJones75]

24. Seriously? That guy is awful.

Packers got lucky twice in a row pulling two hall of fame QB’s. But that guy is nowhere near a starting caliber QB in the NFL.

[edhopper]

8. Rodgers only played one half

and threw 2 TDs. His back up played the rest. He is the highest rated QB in the history of the game 4 time MVP and will be in the Hall of Fame.
His teams defense lost this game. He is anything but over rated.

[Cuthbert Allgood]

13. Offense was not good for most of the first half.

[edhopper]

16. They are 13-3

Top NFC seed and he is favorite for the MVP for the second year in a row.
How is he over-rated? Rings are great, but it takes a team to win, but he has single handedly brought his team into the post season probably more than any other modern QB

[Bantamfancier]

10. Meh.

You must be a Bear’s fan.

Go Pack Go!!

[CentralMass]

11. Talent aside, he is a dick.

[Takket]

18. He didn't play the second half

[onenote]

20. It's always embarrassing when someone shows up on DU and demonstrates their lack of knowledge

I'm not a Rodgers fan but its ludicrous to say he's over-rated as a quarterback and no one with a basic knowledge of the game would make that claim.

[USALiberal]

28. Like you just did?

[onenote]

34. Nope. Like you just did.

You can always respond with na na boo boo or some other equally intelligent reply.

[Goodheart]

29. Aaron Rodgers is great. I don't like him, but he's a fantastic player.

It takes more than one quarterback to win a championship.

The OP is quite... ahem...

[Elessar Zappa]

33. He's by no means overrated.

There are plenty of reasons to dislike him but it’s ridiculous to say that he’s not a great quarterback.

[KG]

35. I LOL'd

[jcgoldie]

36. fuck Aaron Rodgers

I don't give a shit if he's good at football. Eric Clapton is one of the greatest blues rock guitarists of all time and a personal favorite of mine and FUCK HIM too! Some shit matters more than entertainment.
