Gutenkunst likely engaging in typical fluff talk, otherwise he's delusional. If Rodgers retires or goes to another team the Packers will be one of the worst teams in the league from a CF perspective and their W-L will likely suffer as well:

Packers GM Brian Gutekunst said he'd "absolutely" be comfortable if Jordan Love starts for the Packers in Week 1.
“I think he’s ready to play and I think he’s ready to be an NFL starting quarterback. Not every quarterback comes into this league ready to go out there and play. I think he needed a little time, but over the last year and a half or so, we’ve seen that’s the next step in his progression. He needs to go out and play," Gutenkunst elaborated. It's been suggested by Matt Schneidman that Love could ask for a trade if Aaron Rodgers returns to the Packers. The delicate tight-rope walk of non-committal by Gutekunst is probably about not stepping on Love's toes as much as it is leaving things open for Rodgers to return.
Gutencuck’s track record in team building will be based upon the win loss record once Rodgers is gone. His mismanagement of one of the best QBs to play the game was at first maddening to watch but has evolved to comical. My guess is both he and Lafleur will be out of jobs in the next 2-3 years.Gutenkunst likely engaging in typical fluff talk, otherwise he's delusional.
