Green Bay Packers Failed Aaron Rodgers and It's Coming Back to Haunt Them

Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers once famously told fans and reporters to "relax" in regard to the Packers' perceived struggles.

And to a large extent, he hasn't given Packers fans a reason to stress.

After getting shellacked by the New Orleans Saints in Week 1 last year, the Packers went on to lose just two more games the rest of the way en route to a third straight 13-win season, an NFC North title and the No. 1 seed in the NFC playoffs.

Despite all that, the season culminated in a disheartening loss to the San Francisco 49ers in the Divisional Round.
