"It goes back to what you're doing in your spare time and what you're doing with your time in the facility," Rodgers said. "Being a pro is all about making sure you're as ready as possible by the time the game hits. I think that's the important thing for guys to remember here, especially young guys.


Denied reports of a players meeting:

"There wasn't any players-only meeting, no. There's meetings with the offense all the time. We break up offense and defense, we break up into position groups, but there wasn't anything resembling what he talked about, from what I heard. I didn't see the broadcast."

"You know, you've got to be able to look in the mirror and feel good about the preparation every single day," Rodgers said Sunday. "You need to think about if you accomplished everything you want to accomplish. If you didn't, you take your stuff home, and you look at it. You probably should take your stuff home and look at it anyway. This time of year, I always feel, helps with the preparation because it's so cold outside. There's not much going on, so you've got no excuses not to get in the iPad, get in your book and get ready to play."


This is the type of thing Rodgers should be telling his teammates and coaches man to man, not just the media. I would have a problem if Rodgers is just running to the media and not going to his teammates first.

He shouldn't have to have one-on-ones with teammates. The coaches shouldn't be letting it get to this point.
