Everyone thought the Packers would be screwed if Favre ever left too.
And no, there isn't anyone waiting in the wings right now because Rodgers has quite a few years left in him. They'll hopefully draft their next franchise QB here one of these years.
Not exactly, Favre ended up getting basically pushed out because he was nearing the end of his prime and people knew Rodgers had the talent to replace him. Football people and the packers I mean, not necessarily the average fan.
There is not an Aaron Rodgers, or Brett Favre, or Tom Brady, etc. in every draft class. Those guys are few and far between. If someone is so blinded by their own fandom that they think they'll just replace one of those type of guys and keep rolling because it happened one other time, then they're setting themselves up for disappointment.
Packers will have a drop off post Rodgers. If you think that won't be the case, then I don't know what to tell you.
