Or he’s an entitled whiney bitch.

I'll go with that lol

They are speculating he will come back if GB will reduce his contract from 3 more years to 1 year.
Its funny because all you ever hear is how GB is a world class organization and does everything the right way.
Obviously not, if Rodgers is turning down that kind of money

Coaching staff and their QB draft picks im betting is whats making him play hardball.

 

[VenomousDSG]

As good of a QB Rodgers is, one of the best to ever play the game, he's still an extremely arrogant entitled jagoff. He has the perfect Californian attitude.

Him and that SJW bitch actress he's marrying are an absolute perfect fit for eachother.

There’s no way they drop his contract to 1 year and get nothing in return for him. They may trade him, but there’s no way they let him leave for nothing.

I thought I read and I could be wrong. But if he retires and sits out a year, doesn’t he become a free agent?

 

[FESTER665]

Not sure?

I would imagine the Packers would have some sort of protection from that? Plus if someone is really interested in him do you want to wait over a year? He’s on the backside of his career, not sure if he’ll be able to duplicate the success Brady pulled off.

Opt out of this year get paid 20 mil tell GB to fuck off with both middle fingers Win/Win

Who was the MVP last season? Rogers probably has at least several years left.

Never said he didn’t, just that he’s on the downside of his career… Still wouldn’t want to waste a year of that time.

Didnt the deadline already pass for Covid opt out? If he sits he’s not getting paid.

 

[Flyn]

Yeah, deadline was July 2.

 

[Rent Free]

O

 

[Flyn]

I wonder if Rogers is waiting to get GB's best deal? The closer we get to camp (less than 2 weeks), the more pressure on GB management.

 

[Flyn]

Zero players opted out, BTW.

 

[bmoore04]

Rodgers set to play for GB this year.

[FESTER665]

Sit out and lose millions, or play with the team thats gotten you to a few NFC Championship games and try to win another Super Bowl while making millions.

Tough decision there. SMH.

 

[bmoore04]

It is the outcome I expected. I know all the Bears fans had other dreams.

 

[Flyn]

Schefter is the guy reporting and he's pretty accurate. Supposedly, Rodgers last year is voided so he can leave after this year. Packers will not be able to put a franchise tag on him. It's 1 and done. Similar money but frees up some cap for the Pack this year.

 

[FESTER665]

I don’t see them doing that? What’s in it for them?

Why not force him to either retire and lose out on pay for years, or if he sits trade him and get draft stock?

makes zero sense to say “okay, one more year then we will let you walk away and we get nothing”

I posted that last week. I read it in more than one article.

 

[Flyn]

It's a compromise. GB gets Rodgers for one more year. Then he does what he want. Better for them than him sitting out this year or retiring. Rodgers gets control of his future.

 

[FESTER665]

I just read it and he loses the last year of his deal, so they would get him for one year and basically trade him then after that, and I guess he has a list of teams he would accept a trade to.

So he’s not free to do what he wants after this year from what I’m reading, and it should free up money to sign Adams though if I were in his shoes I wouldn’t extend if Aaron is leaving.

so there’s wins on both sides, Packers get one more shot this year, and then they can trade him or if things get better maybe he’ll stay the following year. No way they would just say okay play this year then you’re a free agent. If he wanted to retire instead of playing you save all the money, if he doesn’t retire you can trade him wherever the hell you wanted, franchise him, be total assholes. They held a ton of power and seem to be placatiNG the little whiney fuck enough IMO.

 

[Flyn]

If they take a year off Rodger's contract, that adds more freedom to him as far as what he wants to do. If GB can trade him to a team he wants to join, it's a win/win. If he wants to go elsewhere, it's to his benefit to shorten the contract. Who will trade for him if they get 1 year and then he's a free agent? Only a team that is win now. We'll have to see the contract details when they actually come out. Rodgers is signed through 2023 now.

 

[FESTER665]

Imagine being the poor guy who looks like he got cut already and is taking his shit to his car and he's now in the picture with Aaron Rodgers showing up to camp.
