Chicago Bears: 5 burning questions about the Green Bay Packers
By Ryan Heckman
5. How much longer do you see the Super Bowl window open for Aaron Rodgers?
Bretl: As long as he is healthy, I believe his window is open for the remainder of his time here in Green Bay. Last year was a down year by his standards, but don’t be mistaken. Rodgers is still one of the best quarterbacks in the league.
For just about his entire career, Rodgers has carried this team. But, I really like the moves general manager Brian Gutekunst made this offseason. He focused on the pass rush, revamped the safety position, added to the offensive line and brought in a coach that should make things smoother on offense.
All of this was done to help alleviate some of the burden on Rodgers, so he doesn’t have to be Superman every week in order for his team to win. If those moves pan out, there’s no reason that the Packers shouldn’t have Super Bowl aspirations every season.
Takeaway: While we love to poke fun and hate on him, Bears fans know how good Rodgers is. Until he retires, he’s one of the best in the game — and should always be feared. But, with the way the Bears’ defense has been put together, I’m not so sure Rodgers isn’t the one who should be afraid.
