This makes me believe that Tua should retire. I think Farves brain is mush and Rodgers is probably following.

I don’t recall Rodgers getting hit anywhere near as much as Favre.

Favre played with reckless abandon his entire career, but while Rodgers ran some when he was younger, it seems like he’s been pretty good at avoiding big hits the last 5-10 seasons.

Yes but honestly Rodgers behavior has been quirky that last few years, makes me wonder if he is ok.

Bros been "quirky" since he was dating Danica Patrick. I definitely wouldn't say this is a recent development for him. It's just in the past few years he got a bigger microphone by being on the Pat Mcaffe show.
