I respect the hell out of Rodgers, feared Dallas playing against GB only because of him....Appreciate his game and still do, elite talent- top 3 of all time perhaps...BUt I now understand the dislike for the guy that is also out there by fans like me that he had never rubbed wrong....post game Rodgers asked a question "what did you think when you got the ball with 35 secs left"....answer "they gave me to much time" with smug face....full blown belief in that statement..... WHAT???? Hey I am all for being confident, but that is rather over the top, easy to say after the fact of course!! Just kinda took me aback some.... bitterness of course, but whoa dude you are really full of your self!! Guess you can when you just did what you did...

BTW, I will still draft him in fantasy, dude is $$ lol!!!!

They should have asked him, what do you think about getting bailed out twice by the refs on the last two drives particularly since you tossed an INT and weren't anywhere near scoring territory, but you got there because of non-existence PI and the other time, when Irving was literally suplexed after blowing right by the double team..

You could tell from Rodgers face when Dallas was making the run, he was scared out of his mind..

I was thinking the same thing. Do you dislike me as well?

How can anyone have a problem with that?

Thousands of Cowboys fans said the exact same thing.

I saw it too, felt like a dagger, although I agreed with him. He made up for it a few deconds later when he went back to answer and earlier question and took time to praise Dak and Zeke.

I want a guy who fully believes that he can do those things. You need that killer mentality to play like he does.

Even die-hard Packer fans that I know admit Rodgers is not a particularly likable guy.

There have rumblings of it for a long time -- opposing players, ex-Packers, family members speaking publicly, etc. His aloofness has come off pretty badly in public more than couple of time as well.

I suspect dropping from 1 to 24 in the 2005 draft and then having to sit behind what I suspect was a Grade A a-hole in Favre for 3 years molded his personality quite a bit.

In the end, none of it changes the fact that he is an incredible talent.
