2021-2022 NFL Season
« on: May 04, 2021, 05:07:04 PM »
Now that the draft is over the 2021-22 Season discussion has started.

Looking forward to a very competitive season in the NFC . I think Kansas City is still the team to beat in the AFC

Intellectually, Favre is cut from the same cloth as Bradshaw.

Ca_, anyone?

That was a stupid insinuation then and still is one now, that Bradshaw, however, has always had the self awareness to play into.  He’s never taken himself too seriously, something old ARod could learn from.

He also was a consummate leader who butted heads with Noll constantly but remained professional and successful, and multiple times fought to keep his spot when the Steelers brought in other QBs.

Bradshaw has been also wildly successful off because he’s warm and affable and funny and charming.   He’s basically the anti-Rodgers

Maybe you are right. He was a turnover machine who was smart enough to benefit from the labors of one of the best defenses ever.

I just don't think Brandt is right here.  There are two likely endings to this.  Either he is traded after June 1 somewhere OR he signs an extension for more guaranteed $$$.

I don't think he plays in GB in 2021 under his current contract.

How about Rodgers to the Raiders for Derek Carr and two firsts?  Carr's deal ends after 2022, so he plays for a year with Love as his backup.

I'm interested in this, since change is inevitable, and Rodgers stock is as high as it will get for the rest of his career.  Move on, end the drama.

Allegedly.

But if true he has to go.

Another Rodgers Camp Leak.  It's Day 6 and they're running out of material.  Yawn.

Yet Bahktiari re-upped late last year and Marcedes Lewis resigned this off season.  Both are close to Rodgers.

Yea, that’s from McGinn, which I’d take with a grain of salt.

As mentioned, Bahktiari re-upped. Also, Aaron Jones re-upped when he probably could have gotten more money in free agency.

It’s interesting to see what Rodgers wants. He turned down an extension, but who knows what that looked like for 2022 and 2023. The Packers obviously hopes he plays on his current contract, but it seems like that’s unlikely. Although, they may think he’s bluffing and see if he would holdout.

Aaron Jones. Kevin King. Will Redmond. Tyler Lancaster. Apparently they want nothing to do with Rodgers.

There may be some truth in some of the rumors, but not much.

Capable of what? Telling free agents he is not going to be back? I think it’s something he could do, but it doesn’t seem to add up as guys he’s close with are signing back with the Packers.

Holding out? I could see him doing that if he thinks it will force the Packers hand. He’s not getting any younger, so I don’t feel that’s a major threat.

Retiring? He would have to pay back $23 million. I’ve seen even as high as $30 million. Sure, if he gets Jeopardy and he’s still making a few million a year, it might soften that blow.

There’s a lot he can do. However, I feel the Packers hold most of the cards in the sense he’s under contract for 3 more years.

I think it's likely most of the leaks are true. I have a hard time believing the Krause stuff without screenshots, and the FA stuff given all of his friends have re-signed with the team for 2021.

Just because 12 doesn’t want to play for GB doesn’t mean others don’t.

Rodgers has made "carries grudges/chip on his shoulder" the single most defining aspect of his identity. I'm surprised it blew up *now* because I expected him to take the roster on one more shot at a ring, but I'm *not* surprised at all that this blew up.

He's been on a trajectory for a bad break up ever since the first time he came out of that tunnel as the starter after the Favre break up and got booed. Between that and the franchise having displayed a willingness to move on one year too early rather than one year too late over and over and over again matched with Rodgers' supreme faith in his own infallibility, this was inevitable.

It's a shame he doesn't want to take the title shot, but again this is who Rodgers has always been and there was no end to his time in GB (short of a catastrophic injury that forced him to retire) where it doesn't go down as a mess.

Sure. But he's texting his teammates making fun of Gute while his teammates are re-signing? Or his teammates hate Gute as well but are choosing to stay in GB? It just doesn't add up.

And it came from McGinn, which automatically puts an asterisk next to it. It's not impossible I'm just more hesitant to believe it than I am with some of the other stuff.
