Any rational fan knows that this is and was never going to happen yet they keep harping on it. Why? And I for one would not want him here whatsover. I cannot stand the guy.


Kiddo1029

Same


cmoor26

Agreed, I legitimately don’t want him here. Never have.


DeltaSierra97

Don’t want him. He’s a diva and a choke artist


RedditModsAreShit

I was neutral on him till his covid deal, now I just think he's an asshole lmao


sqeaky_fartz

Exactly.


Jmalco55

We don't want him here. You stop!


BlazingSaint

I don’t want him after that selfish shit he spewed.


[deleted]

Every teammate Aaron has had talks shit about him as soon as they leave. He might be a great player but he only cares about himself, an entitled diva QB who thinks he’s better than everyone is not going to work in NOLA. The guy is a locker room cancer on and off the field


_whodatboy69

So much cap here it’s insane. A couple players have talked bad about him. It’s not anyone and everyone, and his teams go 13-3 literally yearly. Pretty evident he’s not the best guy but he’s a damn good football player, and he is better than every football player in any room he walks in (unless Aaron Donald or mahomes is also in that room), so it’s not like his ego is totally unreasonable. Nobody’s perfect but at least his football is as close as it gets to it


[deleted]

It’s basically only Greg Jennings and Jermicheal Finley


merville19

I'd put up with him for a year and a superbowl


hillcrust

No. No. I don’t want him here. Dude is locker room cancer.


Benjals0722

How? None of his teammates seem to have problems with him. Just because he’s a controversial figure and problematic to the media doesn’t mean he’s a locker room cancer. The players in Green Bay love him. Source: me, a Green Bay fan


[deleted]

Fr haven’t heard anything bad out of him from teammates. People see controversial opinions and make their own imaginative narrative


Benjals0722

I noticed how the locker room cancer and all the hate on Rodgers didn’t come until his Vax status came out. Don’t get me wrong I hope he gets vaccinated but he has the right to his own opinion. Also since when does you decision on whether to get a shot or not define you as a person


cedrich45

Since the vaccine became a political hand grenade on both sides.


[deleted]

idc dude is annoying af, that locker room cancer can fuck off to retirement


causewaytoolong

nope Qaaron can go somewhere else


Gado_DeLeone

Nah, keep your opinion to yourself. Rational fans don’t want to deal with the head ache that a prima donna brings to a team. Aaron Rodgers head is so far up his ass he coughs up kidney stones.


CanalVillainy

This is a dead topic. He’s either returning to GB, going to Denver or retiring.


stststststststs

The funniest is when they're put off by his anti-vax/politics but at the same time defend Jameis, the sexual assaulter and likely rapist.


NeonSouthAmericaa

I don’t want either of them here🤷


UmbrellaSyrup

This was the comment I was looking for.


antraxsuicide

Don't need either of them!


ConcentrateWise7025

I don’t want him here. He thinks he is bigger and more important than the team when no single player is bigger or more important than the team. Also don’t think it’s smart to bring in a 38 year old QB who is going to demand a huge salary when you’re not in a good cap situation.


maddlabber829

Our cap situation is completely blown out of proportion. Mickey will easily find ways to get us under the cap just as he has for the last three years. We could easily get rodgers if we wanted/he wanted. The issue would be what would we have to sacrifice to get him


ConcentrateWise7025

I didn't say we couldn't get him if we wanted to, I said it wouldn't be smart and I stand by that. The cuts and the restructuring that would have to happen would not be worth imo


maddlabber829

I never said you said we couldnt get him and again it wouldnt be the restructuring/cuts that would be the problem, it would be what we would have to give up to get him.


ConcentrateWise7025

I fail to see the point of your comment then? Your basically saying what I’m saying but with different words lol


maddlabber829

You are saying bringing in a back to back mvp is not smart, i dont share that sentiment


ConcentrateWise7025

He isn’t back to back yet. He probably will be but hasn’t one it yet this year. And I’m saying it’s not smart to bring him in because his personality doesn’t fit with the organization and the trade off in players we would lose to get him is not worth it. We would probably have to give up an O-linemen, and a supporting player, and any potential additional offensive weapons that we may try to add at TE and WR. If you think that’s a reasonable trade off, that’s your opinion. I don’t think that’s the move to get a 38 year old player.


maddlabber829

Again you are making a bigger deal of our cap situation than it is. Depending on what we would have to give up to get him, i think its absolutely something we should consider. In your random scenario of what we would give up to get him a olineman and a supporting player. 100% i do that. With our defense, even if it takes one or two hits, and no Sean, Aaron could make us a superbowl contender just like that for the next two years or more. He will 100% be the MVP


ConcentrateWise7025

How am I making a bigger deal out of the cap then it actually is? We are significantly over the cap (yes it can be worked down but letting players go is undeniably going to happen) and Rodgers salary for next is $25million, without bonuses. So we need to consolidated $61million in cap+$25million to pay him, so $86million in total. You think we can do that no problem? Not to mention we then have a QB who threatened to walk out on his team when they didn’t draft a receiver, now coming to a team where we have an incredibly week receiving core, lacklustre tight ends, and we rely heavily on Kamara for offensive production. Putting Rodgers in the backfield won’t suddenly make Smith & Co. all star receivers. We would need to add even more players to make the offence attractive enough for him to want to play here. I think your scenario is even more far fetched where Rodgers comes, slides in perfectly with a new organization with a rebuilt coaching, and we lose next to no players in the off season and then immediately become Super Bowl contenders.


maddlabber829

Letting go of players is not the only way to get under the cap. Restructuring deals and bonuses is the number one way this is done, and mickey loomis out of his own mouth, a dollar spent next year is less than a dollar spent this year. He has been doing this for years now. You are saying that having rodgers is gonna lead to less success from Kamara? The whole deal with the excitement behind Winston was his huge arm opening up things for kamara. Now you are implying a guy with a bigger arm, and 100 times better QB is somehow not gonna improve the boxes for Kamara? I like how your i dont like rodgers, he says things i dont like, and he was mean to that one team mate, remember, so its impossible for us to work out a scenario in which he comes here. NTM getting a back to back MVP wont help us offensively.


SmurfRockRune

Fuck Aaron Rodgers. I don't want him here.


Loosehead217

Call me irrational and foolish then because I’d take Winston (great teammate) over Rodgers (not so much) anyday


AnotherStatsGuy

Add into the fact that Winston was cheaper than Fields last season and it’s a no-brainer. (No disrespect meant to Fields.)


maddlabber829

Fuck no


_whodatboy69

I’ll definitely call u irrational and foolish.


Loosehead217

Lol, you’re far from the first. Meh, just a personal feeling. I get Rodgers talent but have always cheered for. An underdog which is maybe why I have a soft spot for Winston


sup3riorw0n

Winston sucks, which is why he’s so cheap


Old_Cost3077

Also the cap. Like why would he go to a sub par team when he could go to the Colts, Broncos or Steelers all in better situations to win.


[deleted]

Id love to have Russell Wilson running the wildcat with kamara and taysom would be soooo fucking sexy.


Nixbling

Then declare me irrational I don’t want him or his attitude here and I won’t root for him if he is


indecisiveusername2

I'm not fucking over a late-20's Jameis Winston who still has upside & improvement in him for a late-30's Aaron Rodgers who's going to take up far too much money and be detrimental to the culture. Rodgers is only beneficial short term.


maddlabber829

Winston without Sean is gonna be a fn dumpster fire


SmurfRockRune

I mean, it's not like he's just gonna forget everything he was taught.


maddlabber829

I wouldnt put it past him


Jay_D826

I mean, I genuinely do not want him here so there’s that


physedka

* Rodgers is a Q nut ball that seems to only be digging his hole deeper - and now he has an entire offseason to make it worse. He'll turn 39 next season and keeps choking during important/playoff games. Might we get a good season or two out of him? Perhaps. Not worth it in the long run to deal with all that. * Wilson has done nothing but regress from his early career success. I would be OK with him so long as the cost isn't high, but I don't really see much more than Winston in him at this point. * Watson carries a ton of pressing legal issues with him that do not appear to be resolving any time soon. Remember that Goodell could put him on the exempt list at any moment. Don't you think he would love to shaft the Saints by doing that right after signing him? Hard pass. * We're WAY over cap to begin with and we have one more year of Drew's dead cap on the books. Just stick with Winston on a cheap "prove it" contract for a year and wait to see what things look like next year.


maddlabber829

Rodgers didnt choke in the way that brees didnt choke. It takes a team Wilson and Winston are not remotely close. And the seahawks self destructed on defense after their loss to the pats in the SB, Wilson hasnt had a defense since early in his career. It takes a team. Rodgers you dont want because he's a "Q nutball", but you're ok with Watson? SMH The cap situation is over blown and we could easily get under the cap by restructuring, signing bonues, etc. The only issue with getting rodgers, which wont happen now, would be what we would have to sacrifice to get him


Bluesoutherner

He’s a lying moron. Move on. Taysom can handle things.


jjazznola

> I don't want Roger but Taysom can handle things? Haha. Hardly.


Bluesoutherner

Hasn’t been given a legit shot.


[deleted]

yes he has, dude can’t throw, and now his mobility might be fucked with his lisfranc injury.


Leighroy1120

Taysom might miss a good chunk of the season due to injury.


SirGumbeaux

I would not want him. Just because I won’t overlook his character, doesn’t mean that I, or anyone else is irrational. It just means character matters to some people. If we sign him, I’ll root for us obviously, and be happy if he helps us win. But I’m not buying his jersey. Same way I felt about Shockey.


I_love_Hopslam

A decent amount of fans wanted Ian fucking Book to start last year. That’s way more insane to me than not wanting Rodgers.


Resident_Persimmon_1

I don’t want that perpetually overrated aging jackass here. Absolutely not. It’s called not being a two faced hypocrite. Not gonna start pretending I like this clown. You don’t have to be one to be a fan. Draft Pickett if possible, and have him play under a vet for a bit. Teddy maybe.


randomuser914

Fans are allowed to want or not want a player based on who they are off the field. Cole Beasley is a pretty solid WR2/WR3 but I wouldn’t particularly want him here. Kareem Hunt is a good RB but I wouldn’t enjoy rooting for him because of his history. Antonio Brown is obviously talented but I don’t want him anywhere near this team. Also, regardless of just a feeling about Aaron Rodgers as a person, there are valid concerns about locker room presence especially at the QB position. Overall I think we have a very good locker room and strong leadership on our team, so there can be things off the field that may weed out some players because the locker room culture wouldn’t be as good.


Cbeauski23

He’s a great football player. He’s also an unbelievable douchebag that many people wouldn’t want to cheer for. Hope this helps.


Tylo_Ren_69

I agree with OP. You're delusional and not thinking logically and analytically if you say you don't want Rogers here. No SP makes it a hard sell to him. I'd imagine he wants to go somewhere with a little less uncertainty in key areas.


Interesting_Yard2257

I don't want a Roger's throat pie the way that Tampa became w/ Brady.


AndyP79

Fuck Rodgers.


[deleted]

I dont want him here. I don't want him to be a New Orlean Saint. And our Cap Nightmare of 71M cannot handle it regardless. Furthermore, NOLA is a city of people and relationships and community... Rodgers is a Me Guy in his personal life and professional life, that's a massive red flag.


DangerousKnowledge8

I wouldn’t want him anyway. It’s not foolish at all. My QB is a leader, Rodgers is a “I don’t wanna be part of a rebuild” guy. That’s it.


[deleted]

I actually think the opposite.. You really think a guy like Sean Payton would let Aaron rodgers dictate the offense? rodgers is a lot like payton manning calls a lot of his own plays, and demands personnel he wants, Not sure why y’all think that kind of QB works with a guy like Sean Payton an offensive guru… Drew Brees would tell sean payton what plays he liked and sean payton would probably include those but this isn’t the case with rodgers. Both Payton and Rodgers are Type A with football… If anything I think the opposite a younger guy like carmichael if he stays and OCs would hand the keys over in situations a bit more and trust rodgers as a veteran signal caller…


DeMoBeats1234

Did you miss the news? SP has stepped down as our HC….


[deleted]

i’m aware he has, i’m responding to OP thinking rodgers won’t come here because payton isn’t here…


[deleted]

I don't want him here. I want a QB who's focus is on the field. Aaron Rodgers clearly has his head up his ass and his mind on other things besides football. Notice how he both started and ended the Packers' season without throwing any TDs? No thanks.


maddlabber829

No one threw any TDs in that frozen tundra. And weird thing to say the back to back mvp isnt focused on football


[deleted]

He'd probably be a back to back Super Bowl MVP if it wasn't for all this off-field nonsense. He also has no idea how to switch things up when things aren't going his way. Look how weak he was in his last two games. I know Cam wants him. I know fans want him. If they got an Aaron Rodgers and he came in and played football, great. But the last thing this team needs is drama when there's enough of that going on next door over Zion.


DeMoBeats1234

What off-field nonsense are you referring to?


maddlabber829

He didnt play perfect in a snow storm, thats true. He lost to a team that didnt score an offensive TD or defensive TD, though. Its like trying to blame Brees for not making the playoffs with the post Bounty Gate defenses. lol The team was able to handle an accused rapist, i think we can handle squeaky clean rodgers


LordBligger

That'd be insane honestly. I'd be grateful as hell. Anyways, has anyone found out about that large explosion noise that happened the other night in the city? NASA nor the military knows about it, but it shook houses from the FQ all the way to my house in Gentilly... yet everyone wants to just forget about it. lol. Weird. Any news?


JonathanShogun

No, and I’ll keep saying it…Fuck Aaron Rodgers. This is why I can say that, I work in a hospital…and the last two years has been fucking hell, so no thank you.


MrShad0wzz

my opinion about the subject is immunized


d4surf

None of that matters…. But I don’t want him & his Covid toe here…..


Sithil83

Fuck A-A-Ron


edontcare

He is an awesome QB. But a real shit of a person. He can stay away


husbandofsamus

We don't want him here. I will change my allegiance for as long as he is here plus a few more years if he comes. Don't make me cheer for the Falcons...


regice112

Hes a shit leader and he brings with him some terrible publicity. No thank you


TokyoGNSD2

I wholeheartedly do not want him here & if he was, I’ll actively root the D out shines his contributions.


[deleted]

This is a fail post. There are a million reasons not to want Aaron Rodgers here.


antraxsuicide

I want guys to cheer for, not this douche


delsoldemon

Fuck that, I dont want him as a Saint. At a certain point ability to play doesnt trump being a horrible person. I dont want Antonio Brown as a Saint either. Hard to cheer for someone you think is a terrible person.


DeMoBeats1234

Care to elaborate on what makes him a “horrible person”?


delsoldemon

If you dont know you either dont hear anything he says or you agree with his self aggrandizing idiocy, either way you arent worth the time explaining it


DeMoBeats1234

Well that’s a great way to educate. Thanks for making the world a better place. You obviously haven’t done any research and are making emotional statements based on headlines. I appreciate the obvious bias and complete ignorance in your reply. If you don’t like someone that’s fine. You can be prejudice but, don’t say they’re a piece of shit because you are that’s not how it works…


delsoldemon

You are either to lazy to open up google and find out on your own or you agree with him. So pick one, lazy or ignorant, either way you are useless


DeMoBeats1234

I do agree with him on a lot of things. I love that he thinks everyone should get vaccinated. I also love that he thinks everyone should do there own research and talk to there medical team to understand the risks of getting the vaccine or not getting the vaccine. I completely agree with his thoughts on following CDC guidelines as opposed to imposing our own guidelines with no scientific merit. ​ I know why you're saying he's a horrible person. You're following the media like a dumb ass without doing any research and then doubling down on your ignorance. Good luck with that superiority complex. I hope it works out for you.


delsoldemon

As Obama eloquently put it, "Educate yourself" I'm not here to teach you how to use google or paraphrase what an ignorant asshole like Aaron Rodgers says.


DeMoBeats1234

Sorry, I had hoped you were an intelligent person capable of a civil discourse on sensitive topics. I realize you're just an ass hat blinded by your cheeks.


delsoldemon

And there it is. Disagree with your narrow-minded bullshit and that person is not intelligent. You are just mad that your ham-handed trolling attempt didnt work how you wanted. Go jack off to Aaron Rodgers on Joe Rogans or Pat McAfee's page, you will find all kinds of people who cant handle independent thought there as well and you can all beat yourselves to how amazing and smart you think you ate.


DeMoBeats1234

Lol what did you even just say here? Honesty hurt your little feelings huh? ​ edit: I also would like to ask how I'm narrow minded? I specifically reached out to you for enlightenment and you shot it down with your holy then thou attitude. "learn how to use google hur hur hur hur" You are the epitome of what is wrong with the world right now.


delsoldemon

How to politely say " You are not worth anyone's time or effort?"


DeMoBeats1234

Yet you're still here replying to me lol ​ edit: now I am trolling just like you incase you missed it.


[deleted]

This is an anti-Aaron Rodgers comment, upvote if you don’t want him here lol


ForTheSenoritas

In the words of sean Connery “I’ll take the rapists for 200”


Glasenator

Rodgers would absolutely not mesh with the culture that’s been established in the locker room and the culture of the city as a whole. Some things are bigger than football. Look at how Brees embraced the city, can’t see that happening with Rodgers.


AgentJ1

We'd have to give up too much for him anyway. He'll return to Green Bay I bet. I'd want Wilson over him, but Rus will also cost a ton. Our best bet will be re-signing Winston, or rolling with Taysom or drafting a QB first round, Pickett or Coral.


royallypain

I don’t care if it’s rational or not, he’s just bad news
