Aaron Rodgers is ‘hell-bent on revenge’ against Packers: TJ Lang

The Aaron Rodgers saga continues. Amid a roller-coaster start to the offseason in which speculation about Rodgers’ frustration with the Packers has gone through various levels of concern, a f…

What a better way to get revenge than by coming to play for the Bears




“I think he was quietly pissed when they took [Utah State quarterback] Jordan Love a year ago,” Lang said. “The one thing I’ll say about Aaron Rodgers, pretty much the last 10 years of his career he’s wanted that team to just go all-in for one year. ‘Just give me some pieces, let’s just go all-in, let’s trade a future first if we have to get a couple guys. Let’s just go all-in and try to win this thing.’

“And then last year, he hinted at them doing that, ‘Hey, I’m excited, let’s see who they can bring in,’ and they bring in a quarterback. I think that was the ultimate slap to the face when you feel like you’re one piece away from winning the whole thing.”

if he demands a trade all kinds of shit will happen

It would be a media circus, but ultimately it wouldn't amount to much. The Packers aren't going to trade him, because they aren't idiots, and Rodgers isn't going to quit on the team by sitting out and losing millions until they get rid of him.

maybe...Rodgers strikes me as a person that if he publicly demanded a trade he would mean it.

As much as I hate Rodgers, he has a point. You are the one of the best players in the league, you have taken your team to the playoffs 10 out of 13 seasons, won 3 MVPs, a super bowl.. and your team drafts a QB in the first round when you need help elsewhere.

I could only imagine the backtracking some of the meatballs would do if Rodgers ever became a Bear.

This is a fascinating story. I wonder who Rodgers actually wanted. Who does he think would have made the #1 scoring offense better. I mean they seem to get 4 wins minimum just playing the Lions and the Bears.
I guess he now knows how Favre felt when they drafted him......but that was ok to him I suppose.

How do you think Favre felt?

I agree with this. Rodgers isn’t afraid of losing out on any money. He easily makes it up with State Farm. I could see Rodgers demanding to be the highest paid player in the NFL, demanding a trade to his choice of team or sitting out.

the chances of this are extremely slim

 

[Butkus34]

timing is not good right now, we need to trade for Watson and then Rodgers can get his bitchy way

 

[Bust]

If Joe Montana, Tom Brady and Kurt Warner can swap teams so can one and done championship scrub Rodgers

the Bears aren't getting Watson. I wish this fairy tale fantasy would stop already.

for posterity, Rodgers was drafted after Favre was with the team 13 years. Rodger was going on year 16 when Love was drafted. I understand he's supposedly epic level great, but only diamonds are forever and they made a pass at addressing the future. will Love be as good as Rodgers? I don't know anything about him, but probably not.

 

[JesusHalasChrist]

Let's get this out of the way with now:

Rodgers would be RUINED by [whoever is left tackle in a few years] and [whoever is the offensive playcaller in a few years]

My point there would be if the Texans were going to trade Watson, Rodgers would make a good target in any trade compensation which would net the Packers Watson for ten plus years.

Imagine they take Chase Claypool, Tee Higgins or Michael Pittman JR.

 

[ZOMBIE@CTESPN]

If packers want to fuck over Rodgers just send him to rot on the bears roster

 

[TexasBearfan]

i'm sure he's dying to come to the bears and throw to mooney and wims

 

[Briggs is GOAT]

I HAVE ALWAYS SAID THAT I LIKE AARON RODGERS
