Did you just say Tom Brady is not a team player?

I don't think he really is.

Tom Brady is actually the consummate team player when things are going well.

But when they aren't he becomes a whiny frustrated finger pointing douche.

He's been fortunate that for the vast majority of his career things have gone well. And yes he has had a heck of a lot to do with that.

To me he is the Michael Jordan of football. If you watch the doc they did on Jordan, he can be prickly, however the entire thing is about holding the team to a standard and letting it be known that we don't settle for anything less. Brady raises the entire team around him in prax, games. Go back to the Bucs champ.. Tony Gonzalez talks about how Brady almost got him out of retirement to play. He recruited Gronk who had a multi-TD day, A. Brown who had a TD and Fournette I think signed on as well in large part due to Brady. He's not just a team player, but he built the dang team, for the World Champ Bucs.

Consider he left a fortune on the table for his teams to get more talent / team around him. He's the ultimate team player imo.

I mean I guess.

I still think it's more about his ego than anything else. I mean, that's why he's still playing. That in part is why he isn't married anymore.

I just have never liked the guy. Part of it is of course my love of Joe. But part of it is the guy. I think he has a fake public personality in which he's Mr. polite but he's different when he lets his guard down.

I just don't like the whiny, douchey, entitled, tablet abusing, leave the other quarterback hanging post game, screaming obscenities at the other sideline guy that he is.

Comparing him to Jordan isn't entirely inaccurate but I never saw Jordan remotely behave that way. Now, some of the stuff that's come out in these recent years, Michael had his problems. I was a huge Bulls fan and MJ fan who lost a fair amount of respect for him with his martial infidelity as much as anything even though that's unfortunately common.

I don't know. I just think, like I said, even the things he did in New England was more about his personal legacy than the team. Sure the money would have been nice but if he could have more rings than any other player who ever lived?- well I guess Otto Graham can still object, or could if he was around.

First ballot Hall of Famer and the GOAT according to most. Just don't like him at all.

He's learning from his master Jimmy G, cause Jimmy always beats him in the playoffs.

He plays better when his WR's don't have brick hands and actually catch the ball. You know like all QB's. Kind of helps if your WR's catch when you throw to them.

I definitely think at the end of Rodgers career
Favre>Rodgers

I'll still take Rodgers over any of the QBs on our roster, if he were to magically become available. He's still elite despite the struggles this season.

Rodgers can still play. He has excellent reads and throws an accurate ball out there.

All day! Just the way he climbs that pocket vs the panic happy feet. Aiyuk and Kittles would eat all day!!!

Really? My question is what's wrong with the guy. I saw him missing passes all over the field tonight. Very un-Aaron like. Is it receivers? Is it Aaron? Did that drug trip to South America fry his mental and physical faculties?

You think a man of Aaron Rodgers experience can't handle his drugs? It wasn't his first time enjoying vitamins. And it won't be his last. His receivers are the problem. Watson is foot at a few routes but I imagine it's hard for Rodgers to go from the best receiver to average receivers who struggle to beat man coverage.m when Adams would feast on it.

I have witnessed Aaron Rodgers turn ordinary, run of the mill, wide receivers into flat out STARS. As much as you would like to do it, you cannot pin the lack of a Davante Adams on the stunning drop in Aaron's play. Aaron didn't need Davante to win a Super Bowl. He did it without him. Are you telling me that there isn't ONE receiver on that Green Bay roster that isn't worth a plug nickel. Not buying it. Aaron don't look right to me.

Going from Adams to Watkins/Lazard is like going from having the internet to research a paper to having to go to the library looking through multiple books to do research. Rodgers may have regressed but he was the back to back MVP last year I have a hard time believing he just fell off a cliff. What's more likely losing his QB coach, OC and favorite receiver effected him or he just sucks now.

I personally think he's done. He hamstrung the team with his exorbitant contract that the old guy didn't deserve. When you pay for past performance, you lose. The team has no extra money for better receivers or anything. Rodgers gonna eat tho!

aaron rodgers is playing with a thumb injury

so...maybe that's why he looks washed and so s**tty

they should just cut his ass and be done with it.
