Congratulations, you managed to summon 5 or so of the biggest mouth-breathing homers on CCS. They really thought Cutler was going to be superior to Rodgers in 2010 - I'd bet anything all of the guys responding to this thread were "Cuddlers."

It's almost like they've went all in Fields....a guy who has yet to prove he can throw the ball like a modern NFL QB.

What could go wrong?
Name 5 people here who thought cutler was going to be better than Rodgers please.

No how about just 3.

Thanks

Denying that Fields has been good is buffoonery.. He scored 8 TDs in 2 games and people were whining about passing yards. His cleats were being sent to Canton while people called him a bust.

Hate is retardation. Be better.

Having a decent two game stretch doesn't change that his season numbers are atrocious.

Only 13 TD passes, only one 200+ yard passing game, in 11 games. That is literally mediocre for a backup lol.

You are obviously confused. The Packers contract with Rodgers was meant to guarantee him the starting job through 23', after which, we would cut or trade him and move on to Love.

That is still on schedule, but we may move on from Rodgers a year early now. We could bench him and eat his cap space next season, but Rodgers would probably rather just restructure and be traded or cut. Or retire.

Why would you think we would have to release Love after 23'? The plan was literally always to have Love as the starter going into 24'. Nothing about that has changed, except Christmas may have come a season early.
Do me a favor and look up Rodgers cap hit the next 2 years. Then look up how much cap hit there is if he is traded or cut.

Next look up how much money would be owed to Love if the Packers pick up the 5th year option.

The point is that in order for Love to get a 5th year option, he HAS to be a starter NEXT year. And in order for that to happen, the Packers have to eat nearly 100 million dollars in Rodgers contract. Even with the cap going up, that would be crazy money to a player not playing. If Rodgers retires, he would have to GIVE THE MONEY back or it hits the Packers cap. I don’t see him doing this but I guess it’s possible.

It's as if people don't realize that a young QB with a new system, new coaches, etc. might look different in week 10 vs. week 1. Crazy, I know.

Can hardly wait for the Lions to play the lowly Packers again this year.

The cap hit for letting Rodgers go becomes manageable after next season. That was always the plan, to move on to Love going into 24'.

The Packers won't pick up Loves option, we are going extend him before that. Whether that is a long term deal or a prove it deal depends on what happens from here.

We were planning on moving on from Rodgers after 23', that is still the plan, the only difference is, Rodgers might be riding the bench in 23' now. (If he refuses to restructure for a trade or release)

Even his good stretch was still mediocre passing lol. Still only 13 passing tds to 8 ints, and still only one 200+ passing yard game this whole season for him.

Having a good couple weeks running the football is pretty irrelevant to a QB lol. Who caresd how good your QB is at running? He broke the QB rushing record and it only amounted to 178 yards lol. It is much better for to just be good at passing, than mediocre at passing and good at running.

that is hilarious!!

Rodgers is just playing through a severe injury, nothing more. Though I concede Goff is an adequate starter, who the **** wants a QB who is only adequate at best?

What is hilarious is that you still dont know who your QB of the future is. How can you be optimistic about your teams future when you dont have a QB yet?

Love would be an idiot to sign a deal less than he would get for a 5th year option without actually playing. That is fire agent territory.

And by Rodgers “restructuring” you mean give money back. Again, good luck with that.

Then why do you want Love?

Restructuring does nothing other than kicking the can down the road. The Packers’ can’t afford to restructure Rodgers’ contract if they plan to move on from him after next season.

What team wants to trade for a broken down Aaron Rodgers now without the Packers eating all that salary and cap space? You don’t think teams noticed what just happened in Denver? Best case scenario is Rodgers retires but why would he throw away another 100 million?

We could give Love his option, as Rodgers dead cap becomes manageable after the 23' season. Or we could extend him to a similar deal to the option, or we could give him a long term extension, which would be likely if we are sold on him as our starter, regardless of if he starts 23' for us or not. Loves option or second contract will start in 24', right after Rodgers dead cap is no longer nearly as cumbersome.

Again, it was ALWAYS the plan to move on to Love after 23'. Rodgers dead cap hit wont affect that, because Rodgers dead cap hit is only insurmountable until the 24' offseason.

No, im talking about a restructure to make Rodgers cap hit manageable to trade him or cut him. He has no reason not to accept that unless he wants to sit behind Love for the 23' season.
