Aaron Rodgers owns the Minnesota Vikings The Green Bay Packers take on the Minnesota Vikings in Week One of the regular season next Sunday. Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has gotten the better of the Vikings over the years. Rodgers has a 16-10-1 record against the divisional rival Vikings. Through 27 games against them, Rodgers has a 56-to-7 touchdown to interception ratio. With stats like those, Rodgers must be salivating at the opportunity next week for his new wide receiver corps to get some experience against the Vikings. The Vikings are expected to be the Packers’ most formidable competition in the division…

Green Bay Packers regress in new simulation The Green Bay Packers have high expectations heading into the regular season. But one simulator thinks the Packers have too many obstacles to keep the same pace as last season. The Packers retain Aaron Rodgers, who will look to compete for a fifth MVP award. The Packers’ defense will be one of the best units in the league this year. Rodgers will need to overcome a porous wide receiver room that the team is actively trying to scheme around. The NFC North should net the Packers five or six wins. The Chicago Bears…

Aaron Rodgers likes his quarterback room This year, Aaron Rodgers has a unique work environment with the Green Bay Packers. The 18-year veteran will juggle a young and rough wide receiver corps while trying to compete at an MVP level for the team. Rodgers, at 38, is continuing to use his waning years with the Packers to mentor quarterback Jordan Love. That might be a stressful position for most NFL quarterbacks. But Rodgers seems at peace with where he’s at this season. At least in the quarterback room. Rodgers spoke on The Pat McAfee Show recently. He said that he…

Green Bay Packers scouts will be present at the Ohio State/Notre Dame game The Green Bay Packers have a few gaps in their current roster that might be improved with a few players participating in a prime-time game Saturday night. The Ohio State Buckeyes are playing the Notre Dame Fighting Irish on Saturday Night Football on ABC. Reports have come out that Packers scouts will be present at the contest. Per Doug Lesmerises of Cleveland.com, the Packers have reserved three pressbox seats for the game. They appear to be putting a lot of emphasis on checking out the talent in…

Matt LaFleur doesn’t get respect for winning games The Green Bay Packers have won many games during Matt LaFleur’s first three seasons with the team. His teams have won 13 games every regular season since he’s been there. He’s guided the Packers to two NFC championship games. But the national media continues to refuse LaFleur credit for the Packers’ wins. Earlier this week, WSH wrote about how LaFleur has been an effective leader for the Packers, even if the team’s success usually goes to quarterback Aaron Rodgers. There is a reason Mike McCarthy is no longer on the Packers. The team…

Matt LaFleur isn’t letting his wide receivers get too comfortable Following preseason, the Green Bay Packers don’t yet have a clear-cut number one wide receiver. With the departure of Davante Adams this offseason, head coach Matt LaFleur is expecting someone in the wide receiver corps to step up this season and be a leader on the team. The Packers are mixing veterans like Allen Lazard, Sammy Watkins, and Randall Cobb with rookies Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs. Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has been vocal about his frustrations with the group—especially the young receivers. Head coach Matt LaFleur is checking the…

How long can Aaron Rodgers and Jordan Love exist on the same roster? Aaron Rodgers will turn 39 years old this December. That’s old by NFL standards, even at the quarterback position. Tom Brady has managed to play at 45, but he’s an outlier in age and success. Brady’s current age is one Rodgers has said he won’t want to play football at. Could the Packers want him to be done with his career sooner? The Packers may look forward to a future without Rodgers in the next few years. Even with Rodgers playing at an MVP level, it seems prudent…

Aaron Rodgers was surprised by a few Green Bay Packer roster moves The Green Bay Packers are Aaron Rodgers’ team. With him, the team has a chance to win a Super Bowl this season. Without him, they will be lucky to make the playoffs. That’s what being an MVP talented athlete can mean to a team. Rodgers’ skills on the field are necessary for the team’s ultimate success, but sometimes the team’s most challenging and season-defining decisions aren’t in his hands. Some of those decisions rest with Packers’ general manager Brian Gutekunst. The past week Gutekunst has been tasked with…

The Green Bay Packers sign a preseason fan favorite to the practice squad Micah Abernathy will be staying with the Green Bay Packers. The move comes just a few days after news came out that the Packers were cutting Abernathy from the 53-man roster. The undrafted safety has bounced around the NFL and USFL before having a productive preseason with the Packers. Abernathy was signed to the practice squad on Friday as the team released cornerback Rico Gafford. The Tennessee Volunteers product will wear the number 34 for the Packers this season. Abernathy became a Packer fan favorite during the…

The Green Bay Packers will be fun to watch this season The Green Bay Packers should have high hopes for a Super Bowl running heading into the 2022 NFL season. NFL executives feel similarly. The Packers have looked so close to making it in their previous three seasons. With Aaron Rodgers turning 39 years old this season, the Packers will want to get all they can out of him while he’s playing at an MVP level. The Packers have a lot of things going for them this season. The defense is predominantly what the Packers have improved on. Rodgers has…
