Rodgers, LaFleur differ on joint practice merits

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Matt LaFleur likes joint practices.

Aaron Rodgers does not.

But at least the Green Bay Packers coach and quarterback can agree that after two days of work with the Houston Texans, their offense needs to improve.

While the first-year head coach exalted the benefits of practicing with another team, something the Packers had not since 2005, Rodgers was not on board.

"I wouldn't mind if they didn't do it for another 14 years," Rodgers said Tuesday after the second of two practices leading into Thursday's preseason opener against the Texans -- a game Rodgers isn't expected to play in.
