He didn’t say it quite that way, but it’s a possible interpretation. He was definitely glad to see Aaron Jones have a big day and Graham get involved early. The Packers won without Davante Adams (four catches, 41 yards) or Jamaal Williams (seven carries, 24 yards) doing much, so there’s certainly more offense to be found.
But Rodgers also isn’t overly sweating it because he’s seen how this team goes about its business. The film is critiqued thoroughly, the leadership in the locker room is keeping everyone together, and the players believe they’re going to find a way.
The operation and attitude matter, and they’re worth more than style points to a quarterback who’s seen it all and is trying to get back to the postseason for the first time in three years.
Rodgers, with his postgame scotch waiting at home, is going to enjoy the wins however they come, and then get back to work Monday. He knows this team isn’t there yet, but he also believes it’s not as far off as it might look or as some have declared.
“I can’t really tell you what the magic recipe is moving forward, but I can tell you it feels really good to be 10-3 and it feels good to be on that side answering questions about how can you be more dynamic after the win than what the hell is wrong with the team,” he said.
“It might be ugly at times to some folks … but I wouldn’t mind winning ugly all the way to the Super Bowl.”
