GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Mike McCarthy was around the 38-year-old version of Joe Montana with the Kansas City Chiefs in 1994. He coached Brett Favre at age 38 in 2008.
The Green Bay Packers coach knows what an aging quarterback looks like.
He most certainly does not see that in Aaron Rodgers' present. Nor does he see it in Rodgers' future.
Rodgers, 34, has made no secret of his desire to play to age 40 -- and perhaps beyond. The historic contract extension he signed last week -- four years and $134 million added to the two years he had left on his old contract -- takes Rodgers through 2023 season.
