“The Green Bay Packers have had Hall of Fame quarterback play for 25 years and only two championships. They have wasted the careers of Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers.”
Spend more than a few minutes on any Packers forum, Twitter or the r/nfl or r/greenbaypackers subreddits, and you’ll almost certainly see some variant of the above at least once a day. However, it’s a sentiment that has really only gained ground in the last several years, since the New England Patriots began winning Super Bowls again.
While it is certainly reasonable to hold the Packers to a high standard of excellence, one must also consider exactly how much the unprecedented success of the Patriots over the last 17 years colors the opinions of Packer fans and fans of other franchises around the NFL who have had sustained success, but not at a historical level like New England.
