The QBs have often dealt with such situations and can handle them like a pro. Aaron Rodgers recently encountered such a question, but he dealt with it while referencing a classic exchange from an American film.

The Packers QB appeared guest at the Pat McAfee Show. He donned a shaven look that took the show panelists by surprise. The former NFL Punter asked Aaron Rodgers if he experienced some competitive banter and how does he handle it. Safe to say, A-Rod loves it and is a master at tackling banters.

Aaron Rodgers is an innovative man

Aaron Rodgers mentioned, “Man, It feels like you’re kind of a part of the game and gets the juice going a little bit, so I always enjoy that. There’s been some good ones for sure. There’s been some real bad ones. Someone’s just like, I don’t even know how to respond to you. It’s like that, the line from Hangover right that Ed Helms says to Zach Galifianakis, ‘You are literally too stupid to insult.’”

“Sometimes every now and then, it’s like that, but for the most part, it’s good banter back and forth sometimes. Some guys get real personal and then you might have to say something back to them or just lock that away in the old memory bank,” He added.

Rodgers is coming off some tragic losses this year. He is hopeful of pulling the switch in the upcoming clash with their divisional nemesis, the Detroit Lions.

Were Green Bay in the run for a trade ahead of the deadline?

Aaron Rodgers has failed to deliver this season. The Packers are standing 3-5 with back-to-back losses. It is a difficult time for the franchise who have a receivers issue. Allen Lazard, Sammy Watkins, and Christian Watson are dealing with injuries, and it looked like the perfect time for a WR trade. While they did not make a splash before the trade deadline, they were in the run for a wideout.
