Disappointment radiated from quarterback Aaron Rodgers after the Green Bay Packers lost to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in this year's NFC Championship Game. But the defeat only added to a precarious position because Rodgers had already uttered what could turn out to be prophetic words before the meeting even occurred.
"I hope there's more opportunities, but I don't know. I really don't," he told reporters of his future with the Packers during the week of preparation. "That's outside of my control. My future is a beautiful mystery, I think."
Two months later, little clarity has developed.
