This is possibly the most straight forward and brutally honest press conference I have seen from a player currently under contract. He feels like he was treated like a roster bubble player and not the face of the organization and 1st ballot hall of famer he is

[@tyreetravis7560]

Epic

[@ernestogastelum9123]

well he has all the leverage and has been a great QB for his entire career so its easy for him to be brutally honest

[@hushup8692]

Not at all. But this is a more recent one

[@kaalen24]

Keep in mind, he voiced his concerns calmly with class and clarity. He did not call anyone out specifically but voiced his concerns with the organization and its effect on the teams success. I wish more players, managers, people could be like this man.

100%, he just made the front office look terrible. But everything he said completely makes perfect sense! Wow

[@Metawrecker]

That’s exactly how I look at it too! Can you imagine a worse front office? Since 1992 3 GM’s have held office for the Green Bay Packers. They have won countless division titles 2 Super Bowl victories & the third best win loss record in the entire NFL. Wow those guys are idiots! Try thinking from a global perspective big picture stop being Sheeple.

[@markdavis3350]

@@Metawrecker OK, during 30 years they had two HOF QBs, and only won 2 SBs. The majority of otherwise disinterested professional football analysts have stated repeatedly that GB management have wasted the talent of those two players. To have a player of Rodgers caliber, and never, not once, listen to his thoughts on any other player is insanely bad management. It’s hard for individuals who refer to those who disagree with them as sheeple to consider other folks viewpoints let alone additional facts, but give it a try. Come join us in the 21st century.

First, most employees don't make $24M. Second, this description could be the Tom Brady story except Tom took his frustrations and just won more NE superbowls. Your guy has a problem with sulking and blaming when things don't go his way. Third, this meltdown comes from Brady completing his contract and then getting more free reign at TB. Roger's doesn't want to complete the contract he signed. He is not talking about Super Bowls. He wants what Tom has now and is not willing to wait. I applaud you GB fans.

[@Seahawkfan1108]

Rodgers literally just wants his voice to be heard, the dude been carrying this franchise for years and has made other players look like pro bowl talent. The front office has been trash and terrible business decisions year after year even though they been in back to back NFC championship games. The dude is one of the few remaining G.O.A.T.S left in the league and even as a Seahawks fan, I love Aaron Rodgers as a player and a person. If my Seahawks fail again this season, I wanna see Rodgers win one more super bowl this year. 🧀🏈

[@packisbetter90]

Seems like Seahawks are doing this now with Wilson. Ever since LOB fell apart

[@bryanchipps9374]

I imagine if his voice was heard they would have made it passed at least two of their last 4 shots in the NFC Championship.

[@loveNsuccessfollowsme]

He chokes in NFC championships. Somewhat of a GOAT.

[@rymca4758]

every organization should be listening to their QB, especially if that QB is their franchise QB, ESPECIALLY if that franchise QB has won you a Super Bowl and multiple MVPs. no one is saying QBs should have final say in personnel decisions, but listening to the QB and making sure they feel valued and heard is so incredibly important to getting the best performances out of the QB.

If you watch this from the perspective of an incredible employee watching his employer move on from him, instead of a football player, its 100% rational for Rodgers to feel the way he does. Incredible articulation to be able to come across as everything other than a victim, but a guy wanting and deserving to be heard.

And you've set a record for losing FOUR NFC Championships in a row. The loss to Tampa Bay was because you were afraid to run, and after getting two turnovers in the fourth quarter you went three and out twice. You also threw 12 incompletions in goal to goal situations inside the 12 yard line. And you're 22-30-1 against teams that finished with a winning record. You are the most over-rated quarter back in the league.

[@AJSchnell]

@@Ron-pd7jm Aaron: sorry man, I can only throw 48TDs and 5 INT in my previous season, next time I’ll go out there, play defense with 10 other guys trying to get them on the same page and force turnovers as well to create opportunities for the offense.
