Aaron Rodgers is correct to say the Packers' blowout loss to the Saints was just one game. When you hijack an offseason and compare yourself to Michael Jordan, the expectations are for more than awful, which is precisely the word I’d use to describe Rodgers in the loss.
Given everything that has taken place since he last played, it was embarrassing. And that’s ok to say. Because while Rodgers is certainly one of the best quarterbacks of all time, he’s also mastered the art of it’s everybody’s fault but mine.
For instance, most seemed to shade Green Bay when it came to the situation this summer and even though he had plenty of chances to win the NFC Championship Game, the fault for the loss was mostly laid at the feet of Matt LaFleur.
