[QUOTE="Bobby Roberts, post: 223439, member: 260"] People like to read too much into things. TT didn't pickup a veteran QB to backup Rodgers like he planned. Favre offhand mentioned that he'd consider coming out of retirement if GB needed him. Then TT goes and drafts a great QB prospect in Brohm to backup Rodgers. So then the controversy creating media says this must be a message to both Rodgers and Favre. TT couldn't just be drafting a good QB to be a backup! Of course this is GB media and fans who have been spoiled by many years of having the same QB and not really needing a good backup. Look, Favre retired. Whether or not he might be able to come back if Rodgers goes down is a moot point. Any good GM would not risk having the backup QB be a retired player who isn't practicing, staying in game shape, up to date with the offense and doesn't even know many of the players. It may be a great story, but it would be clinging the to past instead of looking to the future of this team. Those who cry about TT pushing Favre away are more Favre fans than Packer fans. Favre was a great player, who could still get it done on the field. He decided to retire, he decided to walk away from the team that almost made it to the Super Bowl. No one should blame the team for moving on without him. Rodgers is not Favre. He will get injured and not be available some weeks -- just like almost every other starting QB in the NFL. We need to have a solid #2 that is ready to step in when called upon. Ideally that #2 has NFL experience, but in the case of the youngest team in the NFL, that #2 will be rookie with great potential. I don't think this will change Rodger's approach to the game. Aaron will work hard to be the best player he can and to do what he can to help the team win. Hopefully Brohm will develop quickly so he's ready to come in should Rodgers go down. These are good moves by a GM in a tough situation. Look at Denver, look at Miami. Do you really want GB to fall like them after our HOF QB retires? GO PACK GO!!! [/QUOTE]
