00:00Pittsburgh, the relationship between Mike McCarthy
00:03and Aaron Rodgers will end how?
00:06Playoff game, you know, second-round loss.
00:12Aaron's, I think Aaron has put the bye guy.
00:15I think Aaron is tired of all the old complaints that he had.
00:22This is his choosing.
00:23This is how he wanted to finish.
00:24He wanted to have a coach that he was comfortable with
00:27that was going to run an offense
00:28and was going to run a team the way he liked it.
00:31So, yeah, this is, he acquiesced to this.
00:34He accepted this.
00:35I think that they're fine.
00:37You know, is there lingering bitterness
00:39from the wasted years in Green Bay?
00:41Yes.
00:42Is Aaron holding on to that any more
00:44than he held it on to it before?
00:46No.
00:47So I think they're okay.
00:48Ben, I think that that's a good enough team.
00:50You know, look, everything that happens with that team
00:54really hangs on T.J. Watt.
00:57You know, if you assume that Aaron Rodgers
00:59is going to be healthy, T.J. Watt's the guy
01:01who stirs the drink for that team.
01:02When he's there, they win.
01:04When he's not, they're just a suspect defense.
01:08I shouldn't say suspect.
01:09They're a solid defense.
01:10They're not a great defense.
01:13So, ultimately, you keep T.J. Watt healthy.
01:16If he is, they make the playoffs.
01:19Jason, as a Hall of Fame voter,
01:21I want to get your perspective on how,
01:24in 10 years or 20 years from now,
01:26who do you think Green Bay fans and NFL fans
01:30are going to revere more?
01:31Brett Favre or Aaron Rodgers?
01:34Who will they have more of a respect for
01:38in 20 years from now?
01:40Rodgers or Favre?
01:44That's a tough question.
01:45Because Rodgers definitely, you know,
01:50is not the most likable human being in the world.
01:53Favre, however, went to Minnesota.
01:57So, he crossed a line that I think some Green Bay fans
02:00will never really be comfortable with.
02:05So, I'm going to guess that it's going to be Rodgers.
02:09But, also, knowing the people in Wisconsin
02:12and Green Bay fans who just love football, period,
02:15I think that to take them about, you know,
02:18on par about equal, if that makes sense, right?
02:21Like, they're going to have this respect for Rodgers
02:23and his ability to play quarterback
02:24and a tolerance for his goofiness
02:27and, you know, his arrogance.
02:31And they're going to excuse Favre
02:34for what happened at the end
02:36when they had to move on from him to Rodgers
02:39and blame that on other people.
02:41And they'll forgive him his, you know,
02:46his crossing the line to go to Minnesota.
02:51And they'll sort of remember the goofiness
02:54and the explosiveness of him.
02:56And it's not like this is the Giants fans
03:01where they'll definitely draw a lot of lines.
03:04These are Packer fans who just love football, period.
03:08Don't you agree, though,
03:09that Favre is more relatable to people?
03:12And Aaron Rodgers is like this kind of like mystic weirdo guy
03:16who goes in Hiawatha-like caves
03:19and he comes out and, you know, he's kind of a weird guy.
03:22Yeah.
03:22Whereas Favre is relatable.
03:23And he's like, you know, this guy here,
03:26you know, I can relate to that guy here.
03:28Now, maybe what happened to him in Mississippi
03:31and that stuff at the end
03:32will also, like, put a dent in how people will look at him.
03:36But at the end of the day, this guy's goofy.
03:39Like, we all thought maybe he's more relatable
03:41than what Rodgers is.
03:44I don't know.
03:45When you're Benedict Arnold and you play for the Vikings
03:47and you're a Packers fan,
03:48I think you cross the line that people are not going to cross.
03:51And when you steal from little kids
03:54and people on welfare,
03:56sorry, you don't get forgiven that easily.
03:59Like, I'm sorry.
04:00This little thing that happened in Mississippi,
04:02you stole welfare money.
04:05You stole welfare money.
04:08Okay?
04:09You're a slime ball.
