The Packers are 3-1 after thei win against the Patriots on Sunday. While it was an ugly win, is was a win which is all that matters. One person who was not impressed, and never has been, is Colin Cowherd. The noted Packers hater was back on Monday with more bad takes. Colin Cowherd had a brainless take on the Packers.
Colin Cowherd Has A Brainless Take On The Packers
.@ColinCowherd still doesn't see the Packers a top 10 team:

Even with the 3-1 start, Cowherd does not think the Packers are a top 10 team. His biggest problem is with, shocker, Aaron Rodgers. He claims that Rodgers punishes his receivers for mistakes referencing the Romeo Doubs fumble. While it is true Rodgers did not target him for 2 quarters, he went to Doubs in big moments late in the game. He had the game tying touchdown and almost the game winning touchdown. Rodgers wasn’t punishing Doubs. The offense was just flowing through others like Aaron Jones and Allen Lazard. He references that the Packers offense is middle of the pack which is true and yet the Packers are still 3-1. To say the Packers are not a top 10 team is ridiculous.
It’s Early In The Season
The offense does need work but it has gotten better every week. This week looked like a whole different unit than the one that played the Vikings in week 1. With how the Packers run the preseason, it makes sense that the Packers are having some trouble gelling as a unit. However, the talent is there. Romeo Doubs is improving every week. Christian Watson is showing flashes. Allen Lazard is stepping into his WR1 role and Randall Cobb is continuing to make big catches in big moments. Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon also continue to make plays. The Packers offense will look a lot different later in the season but they still are not a bad offense.
Colin Cowherd doesn’t like the Packers or Aaron Rodgers. Even if the team had the top offense and the top defense he would still find a way to sandbag the team. This is just the latest in brainless takes by Colin Cowherd on the Packers. I expect the Packers to prove him wrong later in the season.

How is he wrong? If Mac Jones plays the packers would have lost. They played terrible and barely won. Stop being a homer.
The packers aren’t that good despite their record. Have you watched the games ?
That was a pretty ugly first half, and the run defense was not very good, and for some reason, did not appear that any adjusters were made in that regard either. Keep in mind Colin, has Aaron Rodgers derangement syndrome. Even when talking about other sports, he always seems to make some sort of negative comment relate back to AR. Good thing there is a mute or change channel button on the remote, and at the end of the season, only records matter, and how Colin ranks teams has zero impact on the playoffs.
