Skip Bayless blasted Aaron Rodgers for being a diva

Skip Bayless mentioned, “Since Day 1 on this show, I have told you even when Aaron Rodgers is riding at his highest MVP level, he is still the all-time finger-pointing, blame-defecting diva I’ve ever witnessed in your sport; He is the epitome of diva. He is above it all. He’s too cool for everyone around him. It bites him in the butt in the postseason because there’s no bond between him and his teammates. They don’t want to play. He is as far from Jalen Hurts as you can get.”

“He is the flip side of Jalen Hurts. This Philadelphia team wants to run through the locker room wall for Jalen Hurts. This team in Green Bay, they don’t care about Aaron Rodgers, because they know he doesn’t really care about them,” He added.
