surprisingly, we disagree

Amos may not make the splash plays that make safeties famous, he also doesn’t fall into the category of safeties who get notoriety for missing the plays required of him and rarely does he get beat. His overall grade over the past three seasons actually falls into the elite category, ranking third among all safeties with at least 1,000snaps since 2016 at 90.6. In a career that has spanned 2,315 snaps in coverage, he has been beaten for a reception longer than 40 yards just once.

Sounds like Barr will probably be a Jet anyway

Apparently Barr went back to the Vikings...what happened?

Apparently Barr went back to the Vikings...what happened?

That's simply not true and not supported by the tape of each player.

Laurence Holmes is a fucking weirdo, a nerd in denial, and a wannabe. Not a very good radio host either.

How many games started do you think for Rogers ?

19.

Could Blake Bortles follow Hackett to Green Bay?
The Green Bay Packers could be in the mix for Bortles as well with former Jaguars offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett running the offense for Aaron Rodgers. It would be somewhat of a bizarre move considering Green Bay traded for 2017 second-round pick DeShone Kizer last offseason. But hiring the offensive coordinator of the Jaguars was a strange move too.

It's more fun to be a victim

There will never be an effective vaccine. I'll never get one anyway.

The report I read made it sound like Barr got physically sick after agreeing to terms with the Jets and that let him know to say fuck this and head back to the vikings

Barr was on NFL Network explaining his choice, which is rare but understandable.

“It was mostly when I hung up the phone after saying, ‘Yeah I can do New York,’” Barr told NFL Network, via NFL.com. “My stomach dropped, I kind of get some cold sweats.

“It was like you're about to go down the altar and marry the wrong woman. I think I'm making a bad choice. I did what I felt was right for myself.”

Contracts couldn’t be signed until the free agency period began Wednesday afternoon, so Barr wasn’t locked into anything.

Barr had said before free agency started that he wanted to stay with the Vikings. He had spent five seasons with them, and made four Pro Bowls. It’s a big change to move from Minnesota to New York. He presumably has many relationships in Minnesota, including his teammates and coaches there.

The Vikings came back with a better offer, reportedly still not more than the Jets, but enough for Barr to stay. There’s value in happiness as well.

“And we were able to figure it out,” Barr said on NFL Network. “So I made a commitment to my heart, to myself, to my team and I'm happy to be back here.”

If there is one thing you can take to the bank its a grindy TE from Iowa. I am all in.

Kiper and McShay both have the other Iowa TE (Fant) with the 30th pick. Im good with that but the big concern is they also have the Packers selecting DK Metcalf with 12...please don’t. Classic combine stud, player bust.

Oliver was much more highly thought of going into the season than coming out of it.

There had to be a breaking point. An incident, an argument, a loss, a moment that doomed the football marriage of Aaron Rodgers and Mike McCarthy.

Anyone could see the Packers quarterback and head coach were headed for divorce well before that inconceivable 20-17 loss to the lowly Cardinals in December, the one that finally got McCarthy fired. Death stares and defiance from Rodgers had been constant for years by then.

But how far back do you have to go to find the beginning of the end?

Was it Week 3 of the 2017 season, when cameras caught Rodgers barking "Stupid f--king call!" at his coach?


Or back further, to the NFC Championship Game on Jan. 18, 2015, when McCarthy coached with the ferocity of a sloth, calling for field goals from the 1-yard line twice in the first half and then running three straight times with five minutes left to infuriate his QB and effectively euthanize a Super Bowl season?

Or even earlier, to 2013, when Rodgers and McCarthy appeared close to throwing haymakers midway through a loss in Cincinnati?

Those who observed this relationship from the beginning say you have to keep going.

Back to the honeymoon period. Even as the Packers went 15-1 in 2011, with Rodgers as league MVP. Even as they won their last Super Bowl title, in the 2010 season, with Rodgers as Super Bowl MVP. Even then, Rodgers was already seething at his coach.

So keep going. All the way to when these two were first brought together. In early 2006.

The worst-kept secret at 1265 Lombardi Avenue was that Rodgers seemed to loathe his coach from the moment McCarthy was hired.

Nobody holds a grudge in any sport like Rodgers. When it comes to Rodgers, grudges do not merrily float away. They stick. They grow. They refuel.

No, Rodgers would not forget that McCarthy had helped perpetuate his four-and-a-half-hour wait in the NFL draft green room the year prior. His nationally televised embarrassment. McCarthy, then the 49ers offensive coordinator, chose Alex Smith No. 1 overall. Not Rodgers.

No, Rodgers would not take it as a funny accident.

"Aaron's always had a chip on his shoulder with Mike," says Ryan Grant, the Packers' starting running back from 2007 to 2012. "The guy who ended up becoming your coach passed on you when he had a chance. Aaron was upset that Mike passed on him—that Mike actually verbally said that Alex Smith was a better quarterback."

AARON RODGERS BELIEVED MIKE MCCARTHY HAD “LOWEST FOOTBALL IQ” OF ANY COACH HE EVER HAD

Great article

Murphy made it clear that Rodgers would need to accept coaching. "Don't be the problem," he told him. "Don't be the problem."


Narrator: Aaron would be the problem

Still yet TBD. The only other constant variable - who most definitely was a/the problem - has been removed. We'll see how Aaron does next season.
