Things have not gone well in cheeseland, and that’s just fine by Chicago Bears fans. But for fans of that team to the north, and certain former greats, they seem to of had enough.
Two weeks ago the Green Bay Packers fired long-time head coach, Mike McCarthy following a 20-17 loss to the Arizona Cardinals and a 4-7-1 record. Throughout the season, and while he didn’t publicly state it, Aaron Rodgers was frustrated with McCarthy and a stale offense. After a bounce back win against the Atlanta Falcons last week (34-20), the Packers were eliminated from a playoff berth (which was a long shot) by a devastating loss to rival, Chicago Bears.
While the Bears were favored in this game, afterall, the Bears are beginning to look like a team poised for a deep playoff run, it was the way they lost that had Leroy Butler, inventor of the Lambeau Leap, taking to Twitter to leap on Rodgers.
I mean really if you can’t out play Mitch Trubisky,how good are you?, Aaron’s only job is to OUT play the other QB! Agree? You will never win scoring 17 pts

In the pantheon of quarterbacks, Rodgers is high on the list and Mitch Trubisky is rather low. In fact, Trubisky might not have played enough to warrant a ranking if you were to list out all QBs one through 1,000. That’s just fine though. Mitch’s and the Bears arrows are pointing up, while it is much more likely that the Packers situation gets worse before it gets better. Outside of Rodgers, there are no weapons, their offensive line is as sound as a foam cheesehead, and their defense is aging. Then they will need to find a new coach on top of it all.
However you roll the dice though, a future Hall of Fame QB should be embarrassed by getting outplayed by a QB with 24 career games under his belt. I will say, he and the Packers fanbase and ex-players should start getting used to it.
