Aaron Rodgers brings out the best and worst of the Packers. He makes everyone else around him much better, but at the same time, we really can’t gauge if that player’s success was due to Rodgers or if it’s because that player was highly skilled.
Tim Kinzey of the TECKnical Foul Podcast contemplates the Packers quarterback position from Brett Hundley to the possibility of Colin Kaepernick and Tony Romo.
But in order for that to happen, the Packers should go after Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie. The disenfranchised cornerback has been suspended by the Giants for throwing his coach Ben McAdoo under the bus and isn’t exactly a shining beacon of cohesiveness.
Is it a big decision for coach Mike McCarthy? Sure. Do you heed to your player’s wishes and let him play or do you make him sit to protect him from himself? What McCarthy needs to wrestle with is opportunity. Rookie third-stringer Aaron Jones looked good vs. Chicago and will be up to the challenge of going up against a Dallas defense that has allowed 4.2 yards an attempt this season — which is exactly what the Packers have allowed as well.
