QB Aaron Rodgers Says Packers Have Confidence In Him

[Sweets]

Packers QB Aaron Rodgers says in an interview with NBC Sports that the Packers have given him the "vote of confidence" as their new starting quarterback. Asked his thoughts when learning Brett Favre wants to return, Rodgers said "the same thing that for the last three years I've been training myself to do, and that is that things I can't control...(are) out of my control. This offseason I prepared myself to be the starter, and until that changes, that's my focus." There are growing rumors that if Favre does return to the Packers he might be given a chance to compete to start.

If Im Rodgers and they bring Brett back to start, Im quitting that day. Demand a trade and never play for Green Bay again.

if i was him i would do the same thing...but with that said it could be career suicide for him if he throws a fit...other teams might not want to take a chance on him if he shows bad attitude, his image is already getting tainted with this whole thing, if he chills out for 1 more year then there would be alot fo teams waiting to sign him next year...his contract is up after this season and i bet he isnt going to stay with Green Bay

Big Deal...it really does suck for Rodgers, but it's part of the game. If he is as good as he thinks he is, he will be able to play for someone else. Packers drafted Brohm so yeah...throw all the tantrums you want!
