[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 925032, member: 10086"] Regardless of variances in opinion on this matter, I think we all recognize how the NFL works in that they always want to be cutting edge into the future curve. Rodgers is in somewhat of a catch 22 situation from a Salary perspective. He’s going to want his cake and eat it too. Plus he’s going to want your cake, my cake and and all the coffee too! I love coffee. That’s where I draw the line! The only reason he’s in GB is because he had to be. Either that or he’d not only forfeit his salary, but he’d pay the league to sit out and his status would be frozen in that he’d earn zero accrued time for sitting out. Essentially it was either retire or play., that simple. He played a nice act about retiring to make himself feel like he had control, but he had zero control. GB holds all the cards. I believe this was a well planned, minutely calculated move to get Jordan Love and formulate 2 options. The scenarios were played out 2-3 years into the future forward and backward to cover every scenario. Teams do this for a living and they never got caught off guard as to his reaction. The plan is set in motion and the only logical out for Rodgers is to be traded (I’m just calling it as I see it) No way does GB sign him to his last league high long term deal. I’m not saying I disagree or agree with what GB is doing, I’m just stating what I see transpiring before my eyes. The part about priming the fan base for a major change has already been implemented. I doubt GBP would’ve allowed this fallout if they were going all in. [/QUOTE]
