Green Bay Packers fans are not happy about the comments team president Mark Murphy made about reigning NFL MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers.
Green Bay Packers fans wish team president Mark Murphy kept his comments about quarterback Aaron Rodgers to himself.
Murray echoed the late Ted Thompson’s sentiments during an event at Lambeau Field on Thursday by saying Rodgers is a “a complicated fella.” That comment helps absolutely no one, as it further drives the wedge between the Packers organization and the reigning NFL MVP quarterback. All the while, Packers fans are losing their minds over Murphy’s ill-advised comment.
Rodgers and the Packers will break up at some point, as it only feels like a matter of time now.
Green Bay Packers fans are mad at Mark Murphy over Aaron Rodgers comments
Rodgers may be a tad challenging to coach and manage, but why would you ever say that publicly during an event at Lambeau Field?
While Rodgers has fallen out of favor with some Cheeseheads, the smartest ones know their beloved football franchise will become completely irrelevant the second Rodgers leaves their team.
The only people who have to love Murphy’s comments are Rodgers’ camp and either the Denver Broncos or the Las Vegas Raiders, the two likeliest trade destinations for the franchise quarterback.
Ultimately, Rodgers’ relationship with the Packers organization is fractured, possibly beyond repair. While he may return to training camp this summer, it would not be the least bit shocking if 2021 is his final year in Green Bay uniform. He does have an opt-out in his current deal after the 2021 NFL season. All we know is that tensions are high and a divorce is increasingly imminent.
Not a day can go by without Rodgers vs. Packers drama bubbling up to the surface, now can it?
