In case you missed it, Aaron Rodgers had an interesting Friday

In case you missed it, Aaron Rodgers had an interesting Friday Plenty of you only spend time visiting outlets like this when not on your own personal time. Which is fine with me, as long as you don’t do it so much that you end up having 168 hours per week of personal time. So now that you’re back at work, you may be curious about [more]So now that you’re back at work, you may be curious about everything that happened on Friday afternoon, starting with the memorable Aaron Rodgers stream-of-consciousness in which he took an anti-vaccine position, insisted he’s not anti-vaxx, claimed he never agreed to rules that his union accepted on his behalf, blamed the media, the “woke mob,”and “cancel culture” for his decision to not be as candid as he should have been about his unvacc

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (12) throws a pass against the Seattle Seahawks during an NFL football game on Sunday, Nov. 14, 2021, in Green Bay, Wis.(Adam Niemi/The Daily Mining Gazette via AP). By Associated Press. (AP) — The Green Bay Packers ’ imperfect offense hasn’t been getting the practice it needs. And it might not get it this week, either. Reigning MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers wasn’t on the practice field Wednesday because of an injured toe .

LaFleur said Aaron Rodgers will be limited in practice this week, if he participates at all, but his nagging toe injury won't sideline him for the game. Green Bay has been forced to weather multiple absences from key players, including Rodgers ,  Davante Adams  and Aaron Jones , and unfortunately will now add Jenkins to that group. While Rodgers ' and Adams' absences were only temporary, the Packers will have to find a solution to replace Jenkins until Bakhtiari is able to make his 2021 debut.

Just as he said he would, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers started for what became Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Minnesota Vikings that dropped the Packers to 8-3 despite what he later called a "very, very painful" lingering toe injury he first picked up at some point before the win over the Seattle Seahawks on Nov. 14.

The Packers lost Pro Bowl offensive lineman Elgton Jenkins for the remainder of the season with a torn ACL he suffered in Minnesota, but head coach Matt LaFleur told reporters Monday Rodgers is on track to be in the lineup for this coming Sunday's contest against the 7-3 Los Angeles Rams ahead of Green Bay's bye.

NFL chief medical officer pushes back on Aaron Rodgers' claim that some COVID-19 protocols are 'not based in science'

NFL chief medical officer pushes back on Aaron Rodgers' claim that some COVID-19 protocols are 'not based in science' Allen Sills said the NFL's COVID-19 protocols are "always based on science" despite Packers QB Aaron Rodgers' claim to the contrary.“We've been very consistent,” Sills told reporters during a conference call on Wednesday. “First of all, these are things that we decided collectively with the players association (NFLPA). They're always based on science. The science that at best we understand for public health, but also our own data. We are constantly looking at our own data in every way possible, to see where we might still be vulnerable and what parts of our protocols we think are particularly effective.

Aaron Rodgers ’ mysterious toe injury could be a problem all season. Compared to Aaron Rodgers ’ last health issue, a toe injury seems minor and hardly controversial. But it’s something the Packers quarterback, 37, will have to deal with for the rest of the season, NFL Network reported Sunday. Rodgers is set to play Sunday against the Vikings, his second straight start after missing a game when he tested positive for COVID-19 earlier this month, but the mysterious toe issue is a “real and concerning injury,” according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.

The Rodgers situation may not be resolved anytime soon, and the last thing LaFleur wants is for the players who are in Green Bay to be distracted from their opportunity for individual improvement over the next month. "That is something we did talk about briefly with our team," LaFleur said after Rodgers ' appearance on Kenny Mayne's final ESPN SportsCenter episode Monday night provided no clarity on what the Packers can do to mend the rift with their franchise quarterback. LaFleur simply reiterated what he said two weeks ago, that the team is continuing to work through this and wants him back.

Per Nick Shook of the NFL's website, LaFleur added Rodgers is set to be limited if he participates in practices at all this week. The reigning NFL Most Valuable Player completed 23-of-33 passes for 385 yards and four touchdowns in the loss to Minnesota but, per Rob Demovsky of ESPN, admitted after the defeat he'll be battling discomfort through at least the Rams game.

"I'm just going to have to get to the bye and hope I can get some healing over the bye week," Rodgers explained at that time. "Probably the same schedule next week. Was in a lot of pain. Went in at halftime early to get it checked out. It's very, very painful. Got stepped on the first half, and that kind of activated all the symptoms I was having. It's going to be another painful week and next week, and then hopefully start to feel a little better on the bye."

The Packers are 7-point underdogs at BetMGM, an 8-point shift in the spread after the Rodgers news. Jordan Love, who didn't play at all last season and played OK in the preseason, will get his first start . The Packers having to turn to Love, the pick that set off all the offseason Rodgers drama, is rich with irony. He has first-round talent and pedigree. He was a mistake-prone quarterback his last season at Utah State, but the Packers will probably minimize him in the game plan. And the Chiefs might not have the defense that can take advantage of Love’s inexperience anyway.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will miss his team's trip to face the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday due to Covid-19 protocols.

He had serious accuracy issues in college, and it looked like a team that was buying into tools, not performance. That played out for Allen’s two first seasons, but in 2020 he completely revamped himself as a player. With Stefon Diggs on the team now, Allen tossed for 4,544 yards and became an MVP-level quarterback.

    Carolina Panthers: Steve Beuerlein

    Beuerlein’s 1999 season remains one of the wilder outlier campaigns in NFL history. He had been a journeyman quarterback who mostly served as a backup in his career. Then, in his season as a full-time starter, Beuerlein threw for a league-leading 4,436 yards while adding 35 touchdowns into the mix. In 2000 he was Carolina’s starter again and threw for 19 touchdowns and 18 interceptions. He’d never be a starter again.

    Chicago Bears: Erik Kramer

    The Bears have an ignominious history at quarterback, so it’s fitting that they are the only franchise that doesn’t have a 4,000-yard season in its history. Kramer, another journeyman, threw for 3,838 yards in 1995. That somehow remains the Chicago record, and that’s why people still talk about Sid Luckman in the Windy City.

    Cincinnati Bengals: Andy Dalton

    When Palmer left Cincinnati it decided to spend a second-round pick on Dalton. Second-rounders don’t often turn into successful starting quarterbacks, but Dalton did. He was a busy guy during the 2013 season. He set personal highs in passing attempts (586), passing touchdowns (33), interceptions (20), and, of course, passing yards (4,293).

    Cleveland Browns: Brian Sipe

    This is the second-earliest season on this list. The Browns have a pretty bleak history of quarterbacks as well, at least since the team returned to the NFL in 1999. Baker Mayfield may set a new franchise record at some point, but Sipe has had the franchise record for passing yards in 1980. A quarterback with an issue with interceptions, he only had one Pro Bowl season, but he also won the MVP that year. Sipe set the Browns record with 4,132 yards.

    Dallas Cowboys: Tony Romo

    To a younger generation, Romo is going to be primarily thought of as a TV analyst, much how those of us who grew up in the ‘90s remember John Madden. For now, though, most of us remember him as the talented, occasionally frustrating, quarterback for the Cowboys. He had some big years, including throwing for 4,903 yards in 2012. Not bad for an undrafted player out of Eastern Illinois.

    Detroit Lions: Matthew Stafford

    The Lions have not been afraid to let Stafford air it out given his big arm (and the fact he’s often been trying to lead comebacks for the lowly franchise). The 2011 season was the first one in which Stafford was able to stay healthy, the first of eight seasons in a row where he started all 16 games. Stafford threw for 5,038 yards, which at the time made him the fourth quarterback ever to cross the 5,000-yard threshold. The next year, he came close to doing it again but fell just short at 4,967 yards.
  • Slide 11 of 33: Given all his years in Indianapolis, you might expect Manning to have the record for two teams. However, that actually isn’t the case. Manning doesn’t have the Colts’ record, but he does have the Broncos record. He also had maybe the best season of any quarterback ever with Denver, when he won his fifth MVP in 2013. Peyton didn’t just throw for 5,477 yards and NFL record. He also threw for 55 touchdowns, which is also the NFL record.

    Green Bay Packers: Aaron Rodgers

    Rodgers can still put up MVP numbers in his late thirties, and he’s also got the skills to guest host “Jeopardy!” His first MVP campaign came in 2011. As per usual, he protected the ball quite well, tossing 45 touchdowns against only six interceptions. On top of that, he set the Packers’ record with 4,643 yards. Let’s see Jordan Love do that.

    Houston Texans: Deshaun Watson

    Watson is the second of two quarterbacks on this list to have set their franchise’s record in 2020. Of course, Watson wasn’t going up against as much history as Josh Allen. Prior to the Clemson quarterback’s arrival, there wasn’t exactly a storied history of quarterbacking for the Texans. Houston put up a lousy record, but Watson put up 4,823 yards even after losing DeAndre Hopkins to the Cardinals.

    Jacksonville Jaguars: Blake Bortles

    Shout out to Jason Mendoza on this one. Was Bortles good with the Jaguars? Usually, the answer to that was “No.” However, Bortles was also the king of garbage time for some bad Jacksonville teams. In 2015, the Jaguars went 5-11. Bortles was sacked 51 times and fumbled 14 times as well. The third-overall pick in 2014 got to air it out plenty, though, as he threw for 4,428 yards, a lot of it in games that had been decided already.

    Gannon was a good quarterback, but when he joined the Raiders to end his career he found a whole new level.

This was his last full season as a starter, as injuries hampered him in his final two seasons.

    Los Angeles Chargers: Dan Fouts

    Given that both Drew Brees and Philip Rivers played for the Chargers, it’s impressive that Fouts still holds the Chargers’ record for passing yards in a season. The bearded signal-caller set the record back in 1981, a completely different era of football. Having thrown for 4,802 yards that season, Fouts would still have the franchise record for several NFL teams. That’s impressive.
  • Slide 17 of 33: Mahomes is going to have every Chiefs franchise record when he retires, we assume. Heck, he might have most of the NFL records as well. In his first full season as a starter, Mahomes lit up the NFL and won MVP. He threw for 50 touchdowns, of course, but he also threw for 5,097 yards. That’s a combo that only Peyton Manning can also claim.

In 2001, he won his second MVP while leading the “Greatest Show on Turf” offense. The Rams went 14-2, and Warner tossed for 4,830 yards, led the NFL. Then, the Super Bowl against the Patriots happened, and we know how that ended.

    Miami Dolphins: Dan Marino

    Adjusting for the era, we might still consider Marino’s 1984 campaign the best of any quarterback. At a time when 4,000-yard seasons weren’t the norm, Marino became the first quarterback to throw for over 5,000 yards. Specifically, he threw for 5,084 yards, which was the NFL record at the time. He also set an NFL record with 48 passing touchdowns. Marino may not have won a Super Bowl, but you can’t argue with his career accomplishments.

    Pittsburgh Steelers: Ben Roethlisberger

    In 2020, Big Ben was basically only throwing the ball like two yards down the field as most. It’s crazy to remember that he was airing it out as recently as 2018. That year he set a personal high with 675 passing attempts and threw for 5,129 yards. He averaged 7.6 yards per attempt. In 2020? That was down to 6.3.
  • Slide 26 of 33: This is the earliest year on this list by a considerable margin. Sipe set the Browns’ record in 1980. Namath set the Jets’ record way back in 1967. He was a completely different kind of quarterback for the era. Namath threw for 4,007 yards that year. For the era, that’s like throwing for 5,000 yards today.

    Seattle Seahawks: Russell Wilson

    When you let Russ cook, good things happen. If Pete Carroll was a little less run-happy, the Seahawks’ franchise record could probably be even gaudier. Instead, Wilson set the Seahawks record when he threw for 4,219 yards in 2016. If Russ got to throw as often as some quarterbacks he could definitely beat that.
  • Slide 27 of 33: Wentz has seen better days in Philly. Like, as recently as 2019. While the 2020 season was a disaster for Wentz, just one year earlier he was still putting up good numbers and not getting Doug Pederson fired. In only his second time playing 16 games, Wentz threw for 4,039 yards. Sure, he also fumbled 16 times, but let’s focus on the passing record.

    San Francisco 49ers: Jeff Garcia

    No, it’s not Joe Montana or Steve Young that has the 49ers’ record. It’s not even Colin Kaepernick. The record belongs to Garcia. In 2000, Garcia was in his second year in the NFL after spending five seasons in the CFL. He tossed for 4,278 yards, securing a few years as the starting quarterback in San Francisco. After a few years with the Niners, Garcia would hope around the NFL a bit before ending his career in 2010 in the UFL with the Omaha Nighthawks.

    Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Jameis Winston

    In 2019, Winston accumulated numbers like crazy. The most notable thing is that Winston threw 33 touchdowns and 30 interceptions. No quarterback had ever done that before. On a more positive note for Winston, he also led the NFL with 5,109 passing yards. Then he lost his job to Brady, which seems fair. Brady has never thrown for 30 interceptions, after all.

    Tennessee Titans: Warren Moon

    Like Garcia, Moon became his career in the CFL. Unlike Garcia, Moon is in the Hall of Fame. In 1990, Moon won the MVP with the Houston Oilers by throwing for 4,689 yards and 33 touchdowns. However, 1991 is when he set the franchise’s passing yards record when he threw for a whopping…4,670 yards. Yes, Moon broke his own record by one yard one season later. There would be no MVP, though, as he threw 21 picks that year.

    Washington Football Team: Kirk Cousins

    Cousins was not necessarily drafted to become Washington’s starting quarterback, but that’s the job he ended up with. Fortunately, the Michigan State product proved up to the task, especially in 2016. That year, he threw for 4,917 yards. A couple of seasons later he would move on to the Vikings, thanks in part to the rare fully-guaranteed NFL contract. You like that?
