"We can’t lose a game like that against that team, though," Rodgers said.
The two-time reigning MVP was asked whether he regretted not retiring.

"So I was all-in, and this is a lot of life lessons for sure this year, but luckily it's not over. There's still a lot of games left. We'll be counted out, probably, by many, and we'll see how we respond."
