Troubles on the field 

Aaron Rodgers is going through a lot of trouble on the field this season. The Packers are not in good form, having won just four games since the start of the season. Rodgers has repeatedly spoken out about the performances of the team, but nothing seems to be working at the moment.

The Packers snapped out of a five-game losing streak in week 10 with a win against the Dallas Cowboys. Fans thought it would be the start of a revival. But their hopes were quickly dashed with a loss to the Tennessee Titans the very next week.
