What Will Aaron Rodgers do?
Green Bay’s annual purgatory problem
For the last couple of years, it’s been the same thing: the Green Bay Packers lose a home playoff game that they are expected to win and the nail-biting begins over what Aaron Rodgers will do.
It’s a 16-year marriage that needs counseling although it’s fairly one-sided. Green Bay is the faithful spouse and Aaron has a wandering eye. It’s not me it’s him.
Will he finally ditch Green Bay and get married to a football team he wants to be with? Is he going to demand a trade or will he grit his teeth and stick it out? Will he find out that the turf is greener on the other side?
The Packers better hope not.
Green Bay is not a desirable free-agency destination. It’s cold. It snows. It’s blue-collar. The people are grumpy. They will never attract a stud free-agent quarterback. This is a problem because behind Rodgers is Jordan Love.
Aaron is a Mercedes and Jordan is a bicycle.
The last 30 years have been “unicornish” — first Brett Favre then Aaron Rodgers. I cannot think of another team that hasn’t had a serious baton-drop between Hall of Fame quarterbacks.
Me personally? He’s fun to watch, I could care less where he goes. I think he stays with the cheese-heads.
