Aaron Rodgers made his usual appearance on The Pat McAfee Show on Tuesday. While the segment started with a discussion of how cool Hulk Hogan was and whether or not Rodgers was caught eating a booger on the sideline on NBC, eventually McAfee asked the quarterback about the team's latest loss.

Having lost four in a row, Rodgers suggested the team needed to have more fun and smile more. Fans were not thrilled with this sentiment and neither was the panel on Get Up on Wednesday morning.

After playing the clip Domonique Foxworth suggested Rodgers just stop talking and start throwing touchdown passes.

"I get it. It's a leadership thing and maybe that works for them in the locker room but my guess is they're in the locker room like, man don't throw it to the guys in the other colored jerseys. And throw some touchdowns. I don't want to hear this and I get it, every week on McAfee that's fine, that's your thing. Whatever."

Foxworth was then cut off by Jeff Saturday.

"No, that's not fine. That's the problem, bro. That's the problem. Is what you're saying, do your actions meet your words? 'Let's not listen to the media. Let's not pay attention to them. But I'm going to go on for an hour a clip, making extra cash to go do what? You're talking to your team through, they don't watch McAfee, bro. What are we, I mean what are we talking about right now? No shot on McAfee, obviously. I'm just saying, in general."

The Pat McAfee Show airs live on ESPN every weekday at noon.
