Unless it isn’t.Quarterback Aaron Rodgers doesn’t seem to be thrilled with the fact that new coach Matt LaFleur’s system entails little freedom at the line of scrimmage for the guy who gets the snap.“I don’t think you want me to turn off 11 years Antonio Morrison Jersey ,” Rodgers tells Mike Silver of NFL Media in a story that Silver says is coming early this week. “There’s stuff that not many people in the league can do at the line. That’s not a humble brag. That’s just a fact.”For starters, it’s not a humble brag. It’s just a brag. And it also may be a fact. But it’s not a fact that has caused LaFleur to changed his planned approach, apparently.Rodgers’ comment would be an attention-grabber even without his history of passive-aggressive interactions with former coach Mike McCarthy. It also represents the first indication of something other than unconditional and unequivocal submission to the new offense that LeFleur has brought to town. And the decision to make the remark to a reporter could create the kind of friction that may eventually be reported and then loudly denied by Rodgers and the Packers.But this is how it goes with Rodgers, who often rattles off with a wry smile and a periodic Southern-sort-of accent the kind of dirty-laundry-airing comments that few other quarterbacks would ever make. All of this stuff should be kept behind closed doors, and most quarterbacks approach things that way.As the proprietor of an establishment that publicizes and analyzes remarks like this, however Jermaine Whitehead Jersey , I’m not complaining about Rodgers letting us know what he doesn’t like about the new offense. Even if he may not like the fact that people are noticing and interpreting the words he has chosen to utter. One of the premier matchups of the 2019 NFL season is almost upon us. The Green Bay Packers and Kansas City Chiefs are among the best teams in their respective conferences, and the two franchises meet in the regular season for just the twelfth time in their history.Even before the season, many NFL fans had this game circled on the calendar. Aaron Rodgers and Patrick Mahomes was going to make for a fantastic quarterback matchup — or at least it should have until Mahomes dislocated his kneecap on Thursday Night Football in week seven. Now Mahomes’ status is in doubt, though the fact that he has a chance to play at all on Sunday is remarkable given the early fears and expectations around the injury.Even if Mahomes has to sit, this projects to be a good game, with Kansas City’s myriad offensive weapons stretching the Packers’ improved defense in a way that they have not yet seen in 2019. KC’s defense has been fairly good against the pass this year as well Za’Darius Smith Jersey , which could force Packers head coach Matt LaFleur to rely more heavily on the running game. Thus, this week’s game gets a national spotlight on Sunday Night Football. Here’s when and how to tune in.WHO?Green Bay Packers (6-1) vs. Kansas City Chiefs (5-2)WHERE?Arrowhead StadiumKansas City, MissouriWHEN?Sunday, October 27th, 20197:20 PM Central Time (8:20 PM Eastern)HOW?TV BroadcastNBCNational broadcastCommentators: Al Michaels, Cris Collinsworth Billy Turner Jersey , Michelle TafoyaOnline StreamingNBC Sports LiveRadio BroadcastPackers Radio NetworkWTMJ.comWestwood One SportsSirius 81, XM 225ANYTHING ELSE?OddsPoint spread: Packers favored by 3.5 pointsOver/under total: 48Last MeetingWeek 3 2015: @Packers 38, Chiefs 28All-time head-to-head recordRegular season: Chiefs lead 7-3-1Postseason: Packers lead 1-0 (Super Bowl I)
