A few weeks ago, Steelers fans took over the Chargers stadium in L.A.

But the Steelers suck this year. And the Packers are 7-1 and their fanbase is as big or even bigger than the Steelers.

I bet it's going to be 98% Packers fans this Sunday.

Here's what it looked like the last time the (7-0) Packers played in a Chargers stadium, in 2011.

"Charger" football. God I am happy the Spanoses left. Enjoy them LA - the don Sterlings of the NFL.

With the Rams back in LA, it seems like the OC would be the logical place for the Chargers (if not San Diego).

I've been on vacation the past two weeks. Currently in Laos.

Film study on Aaron's new O under LaFleur:

Rodgers hasnt played in a stadium this small since___________?

I think it's silly that Matt LeFleur is getting credit for their current record. Played in a bunch of nail biters, could easily be 3-4 or 4-3. Offense is averaging same yards per play (5.9 this year to 5.8 in 2018) and averaging less rush yards per carry (4.0 this year to 5.0 in 2018). There's nothing elite about this team or Aaron Rodgers' play.

The NFL has made the HC basically a glorified coordinator position. LaFleur and Zac Taylor give me a break.

Man, Rodger is 0-4 in L.A.

Holy crap just took a sack for no reason to knock GB out of field goal range.

Hanky1: Can you start a "Cal will absolutely suck this year" thread?

Thanks.

Make it a "without Beau Baldwin Cal will Suck next year" thread.

He throws off his back for on almost every throw. He makes it work most of the time, but it doesn't seem like it should. Maybe the poor mechanics are catching up to him as he ages.

I've always wondered how players REALLY feel about winning on the field. I realize to get to the pro NFL level, you HAVE to be seriously committed to your sport. So that almost always means caring deeply about winning. Because doing well and winning usually go hand in hand.

However, secretly, does Aaron really care THAT much about winning the games? Isn't the true "win" the mega bucks they get for their excellence? So even though he may not win on the field after the final score is on the board, he more than wins when he gets home to see his latest bank account balance. I mean these guys are RAKING in the bucks. Big time money. And Rodgers recently signed a record-breaking contract, so he "wins" every second of every day.

Now I know no player would EVER admit this because it would destroy their reputation and marketability in the league. But surviving to play year in and year out and reap the financial rewards is probably the actual "winning" when it comes to playing in the NFL.

Food for thought.

She has obviously not watched enough Cal football in her lifetime, otherwise she would know from experience that absolute **** looks a lot worse than that

Let's get the win right here. Let's go Aaron and Crosby.

Been saying this for years...

Rodgers and the Packers had to come from behind against...David Blough and the cellar dwelling Lions

It is amusing to see people's trolling claims fail consistently, though.

Hitler outplays Roosevelt in loss to allies

Technically FDR was a much better coach than AH. AH had a better team behind him. But he overplayed his hand. FDR played the better long game especially after those disastrous first few minutes

Rodgers today: 49% comp on 55 att; 72 QB rating.

He was not good today, no matter how much his apologists spin it.

His mechanics are so off.

Butte alum Aaron Rodgers looks absolutely horrible just as he has all year. How is he even still the starting QB? At this point you've got to at least give the backup a chance.

---

hanky1, your credibility as a football player evaluator is dropping here. Having a bad day. No, Rodgers does not be replaced by some backup.

His mechanics have completely degraded the past 3 years. He's so cocky that he thinks he can make these weird throws off his back foot all the time just to make ESPN Top 10 highlights all the time. Occasionally he does it but largely he has become a failure.

If he gets back to the fundamentals maybe he can still salvage his career but I'm not confident he will because of his arrogance.

He does have a long history of problems with his left knee dating back to high school, at Cal, and most recently in 2018 and showed in Oct this year. The left foot being the one he normally throws off of as he used to like to tease his pal Cutler at Chicago who routinely didn't. Maybe part of his problems.

Yup.

Nobody, especially Matt LaFraud, is going to step up and demand Rodgers work on his awfully obvious mechanic problems.

Rodgers gets defensive this year saying "I don't need to throw a bunch of TDs for us to win". Translation: I'm not taking any ownership for my poor/inconsistent play.

The MSM is complete chicken-sh*t on simply pointing this stuff out. It wasn't just McCarthy.

Rodgers is not what he once was, and he was not good for most of this game, until the last drives.

But of course, suggesting that the Packers should bench him for a backup is ludicrous. Whatever has degraded about his play, he remains a top ten QB in the NFL by advanced metrics. You don't just bench one of those.

Hanky, put your prediction of Rodgers' performance and game outcome vs. the 49ers right here before the game starts.
