Just wanted to correct the record -" I say on the show we are up 9 on the Bears". That is not true and it's not 6.
We are only up 3 games.
GB leads 97–94–6

article in the NY Post today mentions one of the more appealing coaching vacancies will be in Green Bay, I guess the word is pretty much out in the media and the league.

Great show. Nice to see Aaron fired up about the problems in GB. Do you guys know Murphy or any of the BOD's? Murphy can't avoid this now with McCarthy reporing to him.
Also wondering what the word on the street is in GB? Are they overall loyal to the team no matter what or is there a lot of unhappiness in GB? Do they separate the bars into complacent fans vs unhappy fans?

I am sure I must be mistaken but if you really believe that the 'Rodgers is playing to get MM fired' has to be THOUGHT about before deciding it is nonsense then maybe it is time to clear your minds.
Only two people know the play called?
So 10 players on the field don't know the call? Or Rodgers is secretly trying to get MM fired by changing his called plays? That nobody can talk to anyone about what the call was? You are correct the OL is not playing well but that was pretty clear the case last year, pre season and entire off season. Nice that you noticed. All the BS about throw aways is caused by this yet what did you attribute the throw aways too earlier in YOUR OWN show?
Do you understand that Jones could have made a play on the ball and avoided pass interference? He did not have run past to avoid contact. Jones had the best play on the ball in the air. The rule does not require packer S's like jones and Brice before him to run past the ball or to refuse a play on the ball.....see the opening drive by Washington, or the first MN game or...well that is to depressing
You know what else happened in the RAM game? Tramon choked on fair catches....so who went in v MN? Probably a larger cause of the loss than Monty but not as obvious.

You completely missed his point on the playcall. If the call comes in via headset to the QB, yes they are the only two who know. What Rodgers tells the other 10 players on the field could be anything. They don't know if it was the original call or if Rodgers changed it.
You also missed the point of the Rodgers thing. I didn't say anything close to that. I said I understood why fans are thinking that way. I don't agree, but I get why they do.
As for Jones, he thought he had an INT the way he did play it. That's all I was saying. Could have have jumped up and made a play on the ball? Sure. I have yet to see him display anything close to the athleticism required to do so, either in a game or in a practice. More likely he ends up getting flagged. Just think that's what's going through his head there.

I thought it was very refreshing to see some misdirection play calls. Seemed somewhat out of desperation, otherwise I think we would have seen more calls like that earlier in the season. Im sure 12’s health attributed to a lot of the play calling though.
