I know I shouldn't take the bait, but ....

That's not the point.

The point is that why is Finley saying this? Who is he to say that they have to show me something more'?

It appears that Finley brought up Graham and Gronk on his own. If so, why did he do that? If not, then why not deflect with a complimentary answer?

Rodgers started out as a pretty respectful guy. I think something got to his head, though, either winning the Super Bowl or last year's 15-1 season.

For example, there's was an interview when the Packers were (I believe) 12-0. If you look at the transcript of what he says, then he looks good. But you don't see things like this smirk after he talked around a 16-0 question. Basically, he refused to even say 16-0 or undefeated season by name and said that it was too soon to talk about it. Then this:


I believe it was two weeks later that he lost to the Chiefs. As the Chiefs are lining up to kneel for the win, we see the camera go to Rodgers, who has a similar smirk. Put Brady in that situation, and he'd be absolutely destroyed. He wouldn't smile for a week.

Rodgers is a good quarterback, but I lost a lot of respect for him as a person last year. He was acting like the guy who was taking things one game at a time, when really, he had already decided that the Packers were going 19-0 after 12 games and then didn't care when they did lose. Those are two things we'd never see Brady do.

Oh, and Finley sucks.

Ha! You know this place Deus. A ton of people would be saying, "We could have had that guy! Belichick blew a 2nd rounder again!".

Finley's comments smell a bit of sour grapes. He's deflecting his own shortcomings by pointing out shortcomings of excellent players that haven't happened yet. He needs another tat. ...one that says, "MAKE CATCH".

lol show him what more? Gronk had more TDs this season than Finley's entire career. Jealousy won't get you anywhere!

Yeah that. It's not Tony Gonzales saying it, it's Finley. His opinion means nothing.

That said if I'm a Packer fan I like his attitude. However I'm a Patriots fan so I think he's an idiot.

Deus Irae

It's in the article, and I'm not taking your bait, as you put it. If you feel some overwhelming need to pretend that Finley is somehow negative towards Gronk and Graham, you go for it.

GRONK's rookie season wasn't amazing? Maybe not compared to all TEs, all seasons, but it was arguably the best rookie season a TE's had since Mike Ditka. . . .

I laid it out for you in the four questions Deus ... your'e responding with answers to questions that weren't asked.

As someone who had Jermichael Finley on my fantasy team last year, I can state - - he is an underwhelming TE who had less than half the TD's that Gronk had.
