Aaron Rodgers is an entertaining dude. He continues to dominant the headlines just by saying what’s on his mind — or by showing his toe in interviews. This week, the topic was a comment he made earlier in the year.
After knocking off the Chicago Bears on the road, he let the fans know he “owned” the Bears. When asked about it, Rodgers admitted it could come back and be used against him but reminded us all that he has been dominant against his NFC North foe.
Clearly, this fired the Bears up who took an early 10-point lead. But before long, that lead was just six heading into the half as Green Bay pulled to within 27-21 with 30 minutes left. Then before we even blinked, it was a 38-27 lead heading into the final quarter — where the Packers scored more to further expand their huge lead.
Now at 10-3, they’ve asserted themselves once again as one of the best in the NFC. And this team is also built to win down the stretch.
As much love as Rodgers gets, they have some opportunistic defenders as well as a dangerous two-headed running back committee with Aaron Jones and A.J. Dillon. This is not a team anyone wants to play as they seem to keep getting better every week.
