"Aaron Rodgers is washed, as in defunct" - Skip Bayless believes Packers QB is finished after loss vs. Titans

Four days after defeating the Dallas Cowboys, Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers lost to the Tennessee Titans 39-24 on Thursday night. Although the 38-year-old quarterback was able to stage a comeback on Sunday against Dallas, that wasn't the case on Thursday night at Lambeau Field.

On Friday morning, Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe discussed the Packers and Rodgers on FOX Sports' Undisputed.

Bayless said that after the game, he felt that Rodgers is now 'washed up'. He thought that after the win over the Cowboys, perhaps the Packers would go on a run, but just four days later, they appeared to be done.

"I am here to officially announce that Aaron Rodgers is washed up, as in defunct, as in after the game. I have never seen him so humble. As in humbled. Yeah. As in resigned to his fate. Oh, no player knows what just happened. Yeah, it just ended right before his very eyes. And for once he was saying, 'I just couldn't make the throws. I don't know why. I just couldn't make them', he said.

"After the Dallas game on Sunday evening, I felt like I threw the ball just about exactly where I wanted to against the Dallas Cowboys. So, Mr. Sharp, yes. As you well know, I see the NFL world through the metallic blue prism of the Dallas Cowboys."

Bayless noted Rodgers' observation about not being able to make the throws on Thursday night against the Titans. This was just days after he found rookie wide receiver Christian Watson in the end zone three times. It was also days after he was able to give running back Aaron Jones the ball time after time to run all over the Cowboys.

"So last night, I was actually rooting for Aaron [profanity] Rodgers, too, to validate what he did against my Cowboys and make it a trend instead of that blip. Right. Because he is a notorious Cowboy killer. So is his running mate. I think the more valuable Aaron to me, Aaron Jones, they are notorious Cowboy killers, but I wanted them to go on and do it to Tennessee on a Thursday night, just four days later, albeit at home."

"At home, just go take care of business and be back on track. And then I could heave a little sigh and say, 'Well, you know what? It wasn't so bad because they're going to do it to everybody. They might just win out'. Nope. I don't know if they're going to win another game because now they're heading to Philadelphia. Right? And that could just end it once and for all."

The Eagles have just one loss, which came on Monday night against the Washington Commanders. The likelihood of the Packers figuring things out again in time to face the Eagles is doubtful. Green Bay is now 4-7, four games behind first-place Minnesota Vikings in the NFC North.

ESPN analyst calls for Packers to trade Aaron Rodgers

The Packers are 4-7 and Aaron Rodgers doesn't appear to be the same quarterback who has won the NFL MVP in the last two seasons. Although he said after the loss to the Titans that they can power through and win the last six games, that is a tall task.

ESPN analyst Bart Scott said on ESPN's First Take, on Friday morning, that he still believes that the Green Bay Packers should trade quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Scott suggested that the Packers should have parted ways with the quarterback before they signed him to a lucrative contract extension this offseason.

"I said this about a week ago on this show, they should trade him. And you look at what the Denver Broncos got for Russell Wilson. This is a failure on all levels. Mark Murphy, Matt LaFleur, and then I put Aaron Rodgers responsible third. Because if you're going to double down on Aaron Rodgers, it is no way you allow Davonte Adams to leave that building."

The Packers also didn't sign any other big-name receivers or other offensive help for the quarterback after letting Adams go. This could be another reason why Green Bay has been ineffective this season.
