Aaron Rodgers says Saints are their biggest threat (1 Viewer)

[bornnraisedwhodat]

A little Q&A he did with fans:

PACKERS FAN: "Hi Aaron. I know you guys are the only undefeated team in the NFL, but I was just wondering, who do you see as your biggest threat the remaining schedule, and in the rest of the conference? Thanks for your time and good luck the rest of the season."

AARON: "I think you have to look at the New Orleans Saints--the way they play offense and defense. We caught 'em at home the first game of the year, but Drew Brees is one of the best quarterbacks in the league, and been doing it a long time at a high level. Darren Sproles is a difference-maker for them. Their defense seems to be playing a little better. You know, we caught them at home and we were hot early on, so I think the Saints are gonna be a team to look at."

he's got respect. 1 yard from potentially tying the game at their house, he knows the saints can play.

The interviewer goes on to ask about Chicago and Rodgers agrees that Chicago and Detroit are both playing good, but again says he sees us as a tough team.

Aaron knows.

What a pompous jerk #disrespkt!

Wait, what...

Which brings me to this:

Will Rodgers/Brees become the new Manning/Brady?

 

[BoNcHiE]

Maybe he should let Mike and Mike know

Will Rodgers/Brees become the new Manning/Brady?

Brees: Superbowl champion 2010
Rodgers: Superbowl champion 2011

Yeah, I would say so. Manning only won one Superbowl, while we're at it. All of those terrific seasons he had, yet only one Superbowl victory. Not to insult Manning, but it just goes to show you how hard it really is to win a Superbowl in the NFL.

NFL players know what's up even if the dimwits in the media don't.

 

[Saint Droopy]

Ha! And the funny part is that the folks at ESPN would probably argue with HIM that the Saints are the toughest... never mind the fact that Rodgers actually plays the game against them.

 

[GoldRush26]

What a jerk that guy is.

 

[El Caliente]

2 things defined that game.

Cobbs td return, and Colstons fumble. If one or the other hadn't happened we are talking about a whole different situation right now.

i find it hard to dislike Aaron Rodgers...

sure he can come off as smug sometimes, maybe a little cocky; but i think it's just confidence

i also saw him buzzing into the packers building on monday night and he looked just like any other guy, jeans, shirt, some sneakers

kinda reminds me of someone who just plays for fun and to win and doesn't carry on or have the need to boast a lavish lifestyle

Yeah... and converting "and-1" opportunities hurt too. Not just the 2-point conversion, but there were at least 2 other 3rd and 1 chances and a 4th and 1 that we blew.

Should have been a different game, but hey you live and learn.

About time somebody states something about us, i guess in the media's eyes we only count in power rankings.

I quit listening to the m&m brother's cause I grow tired of them using the show to showcase how '' great'' they think they are in their own minds.

That being said, I don't like Rodger's, he has done less than Drew but yet again the team he plays for and 1 superbowl puts him on this '' all time '' pedestal and Drew's actual records are acted like nothing, however if Romo was doing this even with a losing record, he would be touted as the best in the NFC.

I don't want none of their respect, I just want their dejection looking at the scoreboard in humble horror. That's ALL I want from any of them at this point of my life.

Why dislike Rodgers for the media hype surrounding him? Has Rodgers sought this hype and fed the hype-machine? I haven't seen where he has. Just like with Romo, the media creates the hype.
