Aaron Rodgers Calls Out Packers’ Big J’s For Bad Questions
Aaron Rodgers talks to the media every week. It is part of his Wednesday routine. For me, it’s part of my Thursday routine to get content off that press conference. Rodgers put out a solid warning shot to the Packers’ media contingent that they have to be better this week. Last week, Rodgers simply said ‘One’ after a reporter asked if the Packers had been figured out or not. And he also noted that the questions were some of the ‘worst of the year.’ Rodgers expecting a little more from the media isn’t a bad thing.
The reaction to @AaronRodgers12 zoom press conference was awesome
"I didn't see a lot of the reactions to be honest…
I will address last Wednesday.. I think it was one of the poorest set of questions I've received all year" #PatMcAfeeShowLIVE pic.twitter.com/z6rYbHH6Se

This might rub the media the wrong way, but honestly, Rodgers has been around long enough to know what are good questions and bad questions. It is also not surprising that this sort of thing happened post-loss versus after a victory. After a loss, questions are very standard. The aforementioned ‘Did team x figure you out.’ or ‘What do you have to do better this week to avoid a second straight loss.’ If I’m on that zoom call, my question surrounds practice and what changes were made to ensure this was a better week of practice. Both Rodgers and Matt LaFleur hinted that practice wasn’t good before the loss to Tampa. And that question isn’t exactly ‘Hey, how’s practice.’ More so asking about the insight to make it better.
Losing breeds more questions and more doom and gloom versus understanding like Rodgers said, it was just one game.
