Anybody else find Rodgers cocky?

[AbeBeta]

Something about his on the field demeanor when things are going good I don't like. He's a big time front runner.

He's got reason to be cocky. He throws a ton of passes but has never had more than 13 picks in a season.

You could make a strong case that he's the best QB in the league.

 

[Ashwynn]

very cocky. Romo comes off that way as well. I like it!

I was going to say the same thing. If Rodgers was our QB, that would be a big positive and we would all love him for it.

Only qbs I can think of who irritate me are Kyle Orton and Jay Cutler, because they look like they don't care.

FWIW... I work with a guy who's a huge Packer fan, been to several games at Lambeau. He's met Rodgers and says he's a real jerk.

OK, that's it; we win now...

and what's up with the porn mustache?

and here is his brother, Alvin,,, freaky,,,

That British comedian really looks a lot like Rodgers, it's downright freaky. The video they did when he went to meet Rodgers in Green Bay is a pretty funny watch. People around town were asking for autographs and even players were doing double takes

Here's the vid

Rodgers like Romo was not offered any D1 scholarships coming out of highschool.

I think part of it is the guy has always had an enormous chip on his shoulder.

How were they able to play in the NFL if this is the case?

 

[AbeBeta]

He has the dream life (second to Romo) as far as I'm concerned. Olivia Munn!!

He is a Cal grad so some of the attitude stems from that I bet. I do know what you guys are talking about. I am not offended by it, though.

But yeah, more than anything I just respect his play. Amazing arm that guy has - especially when on the move and having to make off-balance throws.

Cal grad? Why would they have an attitude? Because they got a better education than most players in the league?

By that logic, Andrew Luck should be the cockiest player around. He graduated from one of the best universities in the nation with a degree in Architecture -- that's no fluff degree.

 

[DCBoysfan]

I Iike him, he is good and he knows he's good.

 

[MrPeanutbutter]

It's interesting how confident/cocky/savvy are all basically the same.

Berkeley liberal thing. Not going to take it farther than that on this forum.

You are stuck in the 70s there. No more liberal than any CA campus at this point.

There is a certain attitude of a college grad liberal from that area - that's just my own observation.

 

[Toruk_Makto]

I prefer my athletes have some bravado.

"I'm not cocky I'm confident....So if you say I'm the best I take it as a compliment."

"I joke when I say I'm the best in the booth... But a lot of truth... Was said in jest."

 

[Mansta54]

Yea he is I agree. However he is the best by quite a distance.His arm is like a lethal weapon. He flicks his wrist and its a rope dead on. He gonna chew our secondary up I fear.

Wow! You still at it. Unbelievable! Smh!

Yeah, that whole caring about the less fortunate thing is so awful

Missing the point as you have the whole way.

yes and i hate it. He's often laughing at teams and just arrogant . i hate the dude. its funny when he's humbled.

 

[Zordon]

the difference about rodgers is when they start running up the score on teams, he'll start laughing in their face, pointing, making 1st down signs, etc. I know teams have gotten annoyed with it b/c when things are going bad he acts like his **** doesn't stink.

 

[AbeBeta]

The point that you ridiculous stereotypes are outdated by many years?

Got that point loud and clear

 

[Idgit]

I love Rodgers. He's a great player. He ought to be pretty cocky.
