Everyone has been piling on the Green Bay Packers following their 38-3 beatdown that they took from the New Orleans Saints in Week 1.
Aaron Rodgers looked miserable and never got into any sort of rhythm in the loss for the Packers.
As yearly traditions go, former Packers tight end Jermichael Finley took the opportunity on Wednesday to bash Rodgers after his fizzled performance. Appearing on ESPN Radio's “Keyshawn, JWill and Max,” Finley didn't hold back his biased thoughts on the Packers' QB1.
“I think (Jordan) Love is going to be ready for the job here pretty soon…It's the National Football League. You have to work in the offseason like each year is your last season. And I just don't see a work ethic in Aaron Rodgers that I have in previous years. And actually, you can see it right through his helmet. The eyes and the face tell everything else about the personality. I just don't see it, that NFL hunger to go win another championship. I just think it's cliche and talk.”
Pretty noble of Finley to judge Rodgers' drive and motivation after one regular season game for the Packers when he's not part of the organization and isn't around the team at all.
It's become an annual tradition for Finley to hop on any show that will have him or any outlet that will quote him so he can rip Rodgers after a poor performance. The former Packers tight end clearly isn't a fan of his former teammate (Rodgers) and seems to bask in any poor performance that the reigning MVP has.
We'll check in next year on this when Finley's name pops up again ripping apart the Packers' signal caller. There's a chance it could be somewhere outside of Green Bay that Rodgers is playing but Finley will still be keeping tabs on it.
