Ethan from La Crosse was right. We should only allow for pertinent questions. So who would win in a fight between Rodgers and a hurricane? … But the hurricane's name is Hurricane Rodgers.


Other than random mentions of "Da Bears," this might be the first legitimate Superfans reference in the Inbox. OK, carry on.

A tweet attributed to a GB Press-Gazette writer says Mark Murphy will retire in 2025 due to the Packers having a mandatory retirement age of 70? Is that true?


That was in the bylaws when Harlan retired. He was granted an extra year when planned successor John Jones' health took an unfortunate turn, which led to a search firm finding Murphy. To my knowledge the age stipulation still applies.

Why would one be concerned about locker-room social distancing when once the players are on the field they'll be in much closer contact?


Math. Reducing opportunities diminishes risk, even if only partially.


Brandon from Orlando, FL


Do the fans who don't want to see players expressing themselves also call for the end of teams wearing pink to promote cancer awareness? For wearing camo for Salute to Service? My Cause My Cleats? It sounds like it's not the expressing they have issues with, but the message. To that I say, try and open your minds.


Thank you.

Hello Mike. How do you see the NFL and/or players changing their stance on the blatantly racist name of my local team?


I don't think the league or any current players would have any objection to the name changing. It's the owner who refuses.


Joseph from Ellsworth, WI


I would take a hungry Devin Funchess on a prove-it deal over any rookie WR that fell to us in the draft. Funchess knows the grind, responsibilities and expectations for an NFL season, and he is playing for a bigger contract next year.


Regardless of how the draft fell, the signing proved prudent for 2020 when all the on-field offseason workouts were nixed. New to the offense and Rodgers, Funchess shouldn't need as much time as a rookie to get in sync.


Robert from Katy, TX


Biggest free-agency move of the NFL this offseason.


If we're picking something other than Tom Brady to the Buccaneers, I'll say Melvin Gordon going to Denver.

Mike, who is a guy you have seen in training camp and thought, "Wow, he will be good!" and they never panned out?


Aaron Rouse, third-round pick in 2007. Big safety (6-4, 225) who could run pretty well. He really looked like he could play. Midway through his second season he intercepted Peyton Manning and ran it back 99 yards for a touchdown. Then he just faded away.


Sean from DeSoto, TX


Couldn't help but notice that every player on Cliff's 10 Packers defenders of all-time list are all in the Hall of fame (or will be very soon), except for LeRoy Butler...


Patience should eventually pay off.


Matt from Irvine, CA


Interesting article on the best Packers defenders of all time. If you had to pick one current Packer who might make that list after his career is over, who would you choose and why?


I'm partial to the homegrown players, so I'm going to say it's a toss-up for me right now between Kenny Clark and Jaire Alexander.
