Everyone blaming Aaron Rodgers for the Packers problems should watch this. Rodgers hasn’t played great but he has had zero help.
This is fantastic from @kurt13warner. Highlights all the things that have been happening in the passing game. As he says, it's pure chaos. (Lions pressed the Packers WRs into oblivion) Tough to watch but there's so much important context in here youtube.com/watch?v=0z24xipR…

Going with the family. Put our tickets on the exchange but no takers. We decided a day with family at Lambeau wouldn’t suck!

As the nonpartisan LFB pointed out, @WIWorkforce can start IT upgrades without legislative approval, just like other state agencies have done. Instead of worrying about negative press stories, they should have spent time actually fixing the problems.
