I like Ben Baldwin, and I have learned a lot from reading his work. I even find his constant Aaron Rodgers trolling to be charming. That said, he does occasionally let that trolling (which has more basis in fact than many Packer fans like to admit) get the better of him, and his recent post in the Athletic is a perfect example.
Let’s first acknowledge that Rodgers has experienced decline. He is in his mid-30s, and almost all athletes do so. While you do run into the occasional Tom Brady, they are the exception, not the rule, and most players get worse as they age.
