    Number 3 is my WFH setup. I use the tank as a desk for my laptop. Occasionally on conference calls, I must ask others if they are hearing any feedback to cover for any peculiar noises.

    I concur. He is a dolt. Remind me what he said about our secondary in camp. I could use a laugh today. Our DB's are held together by duct tape.

    Rodgers is all but checked out. He is going on a permanent vacation away from football.

    Start Howard soon! We need to see what he has to offer before the draft.

    all I could think of on Sunday night is that Aaron has to be wondering "what in the HELL was I thinking." (but HE was the major part of the problem.....)

    He won't be back, he CAN'T be back....

    I was wondering why Rodgers didn't retire in the offseason. Vikings would have been a better fit for A-ROD... and now they are stuck with a 2nd year QB who is not NFL caliber. He should have retired when Vikings turned him down. Steelers are a below average team in most categories on offense and defense.

    Why start Mason and not Howard? Not that this will ever happen.

    They should only start Mason if Rodgers were to be injured and they just want to stay afloat until he gets back.

    If benching Rodgers then Mason has no business starting because he cant lead them to a SB. At that point you play the rookie and hope you catch lightening in a bottle

    This. Though the chances we are seriously considering benching Rodgers are zero. We're still in the playoff hunt and we are still leading our division. Rodgers is T-5th in the league in TD passes right now. There is zero reason to bench him just because he played like total @$$ for a game in LA. The only way we bench him is if we are eliminated from the playoffs, and if that happens, we should start Howard the rest of the way. We know what Mason is and isn't and he isn't a starting caliber QB for a team that isn't drafting in the top 5. He's a tremendous back up in a pinch, but that is the extent of it. If Rodgers goes down with injury, then we need to start Mason until eliminated from the playoffs. Then Howard. It would be nice to know a little bit of what we have in Howard before we go into the draft thinking QB.

    There's still no reason to build around Mason though... The only reason to start Mason for a year is to farm a high draft pick and use that on a QB (which I would've been fine doing this season if we really wanted to. Could've traded Watt and rolled with Mason, and been set up for a top 10 pick where we'd be a lot more guaranteed to be within range for a real QB in a weak class).

    Rodgers played awful Sunday night, but he's the best thing we could've hoped for in the short term if we were truly trying to win games and make the playoffs. He's far better than Mason, Fields, or Wilson. You can make the case that we should've drafted Dart (who looks like the real deal), but that's about it.
