He is a smart guy, a Hall of Fame caliber QB, holds crap loads of records, but the reality is the last two years he hasn't looked the same as all those glory years. Maybe he comes back and puts it together more on than off next year, and the defense fills a couple glaring holes, and I believe the pieces are in place to go to the Superbowl next year.
As a lifelong Packer fan, from Lombardi through 25 years of nightmare to Favre and Rogers, I hope he comes back strong next year. If no other reason than the old management team, i.e. Ted Thompson, never thought to bring in a viable backup/ heir to Rogers. This unlike having Rogers ready when the Favre era ended. Rogers probably is playing at his age because he wasn't thrown into the fire for a few years and was able to watch and absorb, which he is very good at.
