Self-proclaimed intellectual powerhouse Aaron Rodgers got completely fooled, alongside the rest of the Pat McAfee Show, by a completely made-up stat from a random Twitter user claiming that Lions QB Jared Goff has a staggering 6-0 record when throwing at least 4 interceptions, speaking to the bigger issue of misinformation, disinformation, and flat-out lies getting spread unchecked on social media and other alternative media outlets. Rick Strom breaks it down. Give us your thoughts in the comments below!

Imagine Rodgers did "his own research" on Epstein (since he claims he so concerned about the list) and the extensive connections between Trump and Epstein but Rodger's "own research" never seems to come across any of that, just non-existent connections to Jimmy Kimmel…. hmmm I wonder why that is LOL
"Stats are for losers" well I guess so is fact-checking, eh A-Aron
Man Campbell
I think trump is more concerned then Kimmell
Move to Blue Sky
One could blame the student-athlete education lack of critical thinking🤔
Danika is psycho MAGA too though. She needs to be singing Mariah, “We belong together”.
If you want to REALLY get Kaaron caught out, there's an incredibly easy way to do it. Piss in the information pool. Offer up information that's completely and obviously wrong, and get 'im repeating like the all-Syndrome parrot that he is.
The first thought that would have popped into my head would be, "Hmmm, I think I😆 should double check that because it doesn't sound right." 🤔🤨🙄😆
Research means nothing if you have no ability to think critically. And when it comes to Twatter, you can pretty much assume that 99.9999% of the posts on there are absolute bullshit. These "independent thinking" bros are either completely disingenuous, ignorant, greedy, or just plain stupid – or all of the above.
7 years from now Arron Rodger’s is going to be on vlad
Today, in 1966, was the highest-scoring NFL game in history. The Washington Redskins defeat NY Giants 72-41!
I dunno how Roger's teammates can even stand being on the field with him
The Jets are for losers. He felt that was a pretty impressive stat and then had to hate on it. Complete faked easily. Crazy if their intelligence comes from google and twitter but that explains everything because they surely lack it a lot. They confuse information and opinion as research and knowledge. The scariest thing is for someone to have that much confidence in their intelligence that really has none. Straight clowns.
The best football stat I’ve seen in my over 40 years watching the game: Rodgers approaching the 3 year anniversary (well over 1000 days) of his last 300 yard passing game. When you’ve seen all the elites from Marino to Mahommes, you can really appreciate how remarkable this is for an “elite” “1st ballot hof’er”.
People aren't interested in facts. They are interested in things that align with their believes. We have facts and alternative facts.
Money is that Rodgers is scrolling through the comments at least three times a week.
It’s a pity all that natural talent was wasted in an idiot. Should have turned the light on and studied the receivers, maybe learned their names too would have helped too.
I mean, just look at Xbox channels… All they spread is misinformation… This is the world we live in now.
I hate to be that guy (to bring gaming into this) , but the point remains. Misinformation is powerful, and it is driving our culture. Really sad if you think about it.
My guy this is such a non story, if ever watched 5 mins of mcafee they just talk shit they dont care
Aaron is a genius only his own mind. It's a carefully crafted self-perpetuated persona. Celebrity Jeopardy is to real Jeopardy what Miniature Golf is to the PGA.
I just had a family member tonight claim the raise they just got at work was bc of Trump, meanwhile Biden is President and the one in charge while Trump is in charge of nothing. These ppl will believe anything that sounds good to their feelings.
Little Ricky never lies
Go Lions!
6:19 I’m actually gonna disagree with this one and I’m not a Rodgers fan; but he asked McAfee and the other dude if that was a real stat; they doubled down on it and Rodgers gave them the benefit of the doubt, which I imagine is the NORMAL response when you’re doing a live show.
If anything, he’ll learn to ask twice on air before he trusts anything coming off Pat.
Im no Republican but these weird “gotcha moments” y’all play with the Right is exactly why people are sick of politics.
I do not have a NFL team I want to win, but I follow the Jets losses with absolute fucking joy.
I despise the "douchebro podcasts"
CTE is a helluva thing folks!
Rogers did say "if that's true"
I do my own research and it’s consistently different from Aaron’s
The original tweet even said there were 7 such games and that he was 6-0
Alot of White ppl are stuck on their conspiracies and alot of Black ppl are stuck on the illuminati bs. It's so easy to fool ppl as long as u put it on social media ppl will believe it
Intelligent humans know that 99.9% of all content on the failing former Twitter is fake. At this point it would be hard to find a double digit IQ on the whole X platform!
Now he is getting his Karma and it’s fun to watch.
It is sad that the hatred and ignorance of this horrible channel outweight speaking the truth and providing facts! I never understood what loser failures like little ricky hope to achieve by constantly attacking people who actually do something in life! It's definitely not going your way considering you've lost sponsorship in almost a million subs!
I just want Rodgers to go away. I miss football without his weirdness.
yup,, keep up the good work
It’s content on all platforms, but agree.
Hey journalist, stop crying. We stopped listening to you for a reason. You’re the origin of this information and one sided and can by the biggest politician.
But he's so smarttttt
3 x zeros is still zero
MAGA = Make A$$holes Get Angry
I’m fried too Brother, no mas, I’ve just resigned myself to sit back and watch it burn. Sad, but anymore, it’s all I got. lol smh
Traitor name is all over Epstein list and it means nothing. Why?Nothing Republicans do matters to treason supporting voter's. Why?
With each utterance, Rodgers just might get a cabinet post with Donnie.
I lost interest in the NFL about 15yrs ago, I just started watching again this season and I have to say that it has been an absolute delight watching rodgers get sacked and beat every week
"Big brained" is a relative term. Compared to a chimp? Absolutely.
