Favre: Rodgers-McCarthy Packers should have won more

Everyone has an opinion on the Green Bay Packers, especially in light of a scathing article by Bleacher Report about reported inner turmoil on the team.

Packers legend Brett Favre believes the details in the article were likely blown out of proportion, but he agrees with one prevailing sentiment.

"One of the things I agree on in that article is, they really should have won more. For whatever reason, they didn't," Favre said to TMZ. "They were that good and they had the best player in the game. I just felt like they should have won more."

Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers and former coach Mike McCarthy won a Super Bowl together in 2010, Rodgers' third season as the starter, but never reached the title game again, despite a 15-1 record the year after and two more conference championship game appearances.

McCarthy was fired during the 2018 season, the Packers' second consecutive year without a trip to the playoffs.

Favre doesn't believe the article will have lasting affects.

"I think it's unfortunate but I don't think it will affect what will happen in the future, especially while Aaron is still the quarterback," he said. "There's absolutely no doubt that he's probably the most dynamic player in the game right now, maybe ever."
