Brett "rolled out of bed" last year and outplayed everyone except Brady.
I don't care if Rodgers and McCarthy are sharing a bunk bed at Lambeau, this argument about offseason prowess isn't going to convince anyone but Aaron's dad.
He didn't roll out of bed last year.
Brett was DRAGGED out of bed wondering if he's gonna play or not...
Wondering if he's gonna have the 'motivation' etc..
and had to be ego stroked and coaxed into it...
AND he had to prepare like crazy w/core training etc...
So he had to bust his *** to keep his SPOT.
He outplayed everyone but Brady???
He outplayed both Mannings? umm...okay..
BRETT hasn't done squat like last year to keep himself in tip top shape.
So while Aaron's been RUNNING THE TEAM...Brett's been loafing around.
All I'm saying is that Brett's gonna have to TAKE the job from Aaron this time around. He's no longer keeping the seat warm.
And just because Brett played well last year doesn't mean he his head and shoulders better this year.
ALSO this "Aaron hasn't played a down yet" is not true. He played
in a regular season game. Phillip Rivers didn't play a DOWN for 2 years
and they still believed he should start.
It's not infallible for the Packers brass to have seen ENOUGH in Aaron to want him be the GUY from now on.
It's Natural. The old lion is not going to give up his spot easily and the young lion is not going to let him have it w/out a fight now.
Also Aaron's Dad's name is ED RODGERS...
not Cal2GreenBay..(my name's Mike)...
and last name's not Rodgers...
