Aaron Rodgers failed to impress with all the hype Green Bay developed during the training camps. The Week 1 game was a bummer, and the Packers had a great fall — Just like Humpty Dumpty. Rodgers’ failure to clutch a winning sweep disappointed QB-turned-analyst Chris Simms, who voiced his critical opinion during a broadcast.

The Green Bay Packers opened their season with a loss against one of their nemesis, the Minnesota Vikings. The offensive end did not meet up to expectations, and the young stars lacked cooperation with Aaron Rodgers. The QB certainly felt the loss of his old WR1, Davante Adams, at the moment.

Chris Simms mentioned, “I’m interested to see how this goes as the year goes long. Yeah, I know he’ll be efficient and good against the crappy teams of the NFL, the Lesser demons is in the NFL, but you and I were holding a green bed at the Super Bowl standard. And that, that to me, is where he is not on the level anymore of Mahomes, Josh Allen, or Justin Herbert; he’s just not. And you know, I love Aaron Rodgers, but I love to keep it real more. I mean, he’s my favorite quarterback of all time, but he’s not on their level.”

“Those guys go, ‘Oh wait, the first read wasn’t open. Okay, wait, I’ve still got time. Let me. I’m gonna put pressure on the defense and make them regret.’ You know, not doing something different or leaving this guy open down the middle. And to me, that’s something to watch for, at least in Green Bay,” He added.
