Amazing career for Rodgers. I have enjoyed watching him since his Cal days. It is time to hang it up.
Mike Tomlin and Greg Roman share the fate that awaits any coach who fails to establish a solid running game. The pass is dramatic and exciting, but it’s the ground game that makes it work. Just ask Aaron Rodgers.
