[QUOTE="Magooch, post: 989517, member: 17987"] I'm sure I've said it before but this is the big issue for me. If the team wants to stick with Rodgers that's fine. I honestly don't have any problem with us mortgaging the future and selling out to throw everything at winning right now with Rodgers. I'm pretty confident if they'd done that and won the Super Bowl this year just about everyone would be okay with having a few lean years to follow. And if the team wants to move on and have Love take over that's fine too. I suspect that would be a bit less popular, but I don't have any problem with this either. Trade Rodgers for all the assets you can get, and like I said surround Love with talent and ride with him OR if he's not panning out then use those assets to find your next QB. But trying to do both at the same time... we won't go all-in on the present with Rodgers but also won't go all-in on the future with Love. And my fear is that in doing so we've hampered our ability to win now with Rodgers while at the same time keeping Rodgers around and pushing contracts to try and mostly "keep the band together" will potentially limit hamper our ability to win with Love in the near future. I guess ultimately what I'm getting at is that I'd rather simply see us make a decision and see it through with confidence/conviction. I'd respect it more either way - if we decide to stick with Rodgers and go all-in that route and it doesn't work out, so be it. And if we decide to move on and go all-in for the future with Love and he flops, it is what it is. There's a cliche you hear a lot in the music world that basically says if you're going to play a wrong note, at least do it confidently/boldly/etc. A wrong note played with conviction often ends up sounding "right" (or at least intentional) while the guy who plays timid to avoid every wrong note ends up putting in a pretty dull and lifeless performance, even if it has less mistakes. Just kind of what it reminds me of. [/QUOTE]
