Yeah, that I'll buy into and I'd be aggravated too if I've been hobbling around on 1.5 good legs - unable to do what it is I do that makes me the HEADLINE guy I am - and the spark plugs in the car engine aren't hitting in sequence yet.

Not a big deal IMO. But thats just me. LOL, I should have started with "I agree with your comments and share your opinion..." I'm still trying to work my way through a Monday morning and my brain is still a little fuzzy. AR does seem to be a temperamental guy and hasn't shied away from speaking his mind, albeit sometimes cryptically. He's a very smart dude and I think he takes some calculated shots across the bow from time to time, just to make a point, subtle or not. My feeling - AR is just frustrated with a lot of things right now; his injury, his own accuracy, play calling, dropped passes, lack of overall production. Maybe it's best to let him vent and be done with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you said, this will hopefully be a non-story as the season goes on. Honestly it reads like misdirected anger. Outside of the second half of the Bears game... Rodgers has been average to below average given his standards and history of play. Instead of saying it’s lack of practice or it’s the knee, or that these slow starts are results of no preseason reps... he calls out McCarthy. Does anyone here truly think Rodgers is being held hostage by McCarthy game plan wise? Every week Rodgers goes out there... he is biting his tongue and running an offense he has no hand in? I mean that’s stupid. Rodgers complained about not attacking single high safety looks.... why not audible? Does he not have that freedom in this offense all of a sudden? He complained that Adams and Graham need to be featured more yet Rodgers go to line is... I throw to the open man. Allison has been going off early... why? Because teams aren’t going to get beat by Adams or Graham. Rodgers is just sour because he isn’t lightsout right now while on a bum leg to help build that MVP case.

skibrett15 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Edge pressure was decent at times from Clay and Perry. Lots of times we moved JA off the spot and he scrambled around into an idiotic play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking out the Kizer to Mack TD from the defensive scoring, means that the Pack are #8 overall in offensive points against. https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/opponent-offensive-points-per-game I don't think the Pack has not been in the top 10 in this category since 2010.

mikebpackfan Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 The more I think about the Rodgers comments, the more they annoy me. I’m usually pretty impressed with his PCs, because he seems to say the right things more often than not. But this one is just baffling. They left a lot of points on the field, but it seems to me to be far more a result of poor execution than poor scheme. Either the QB or the WRa were responsible for at least 6 missed passes of open receivers. And, I believe 3 different times in this game Rodgers missed a delayed blitz resulting in a free rusher. Take away 6-7 or those and you could easily get to the 600 yards he wanted. Some have said they thought he was being critical of himself, but it didn’t seem that way to me at all. He was clearly pointing the fingers at the HC/OC. Aaron needs to R-E-L-A-X. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howler Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Rodgers and McCarthy are destined for a divorce. Rodgers, certainly isn't exempt from criticism, for holding onto the ball too long, but McCarthy's play concepts haven't yielded the same success it once did. This friction seems to have origiinated with the infamous NFC championship game in Seattle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are 100% correct about last year, I think we gave up 74 points through 4 games as opposed to 75 this year, before bottoming out once again. Think this game in Detroit against a fairly high-scoring LIons offense will be a good indicator if real progress has been made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patriotplayer90 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 He's probably tired of watching less talented QBs have WRs run around freely as if there is no defense. These games must feel like an eternity to him, with these antiquated route concepts making yards difficult to come by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smetana34 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Aaron played like crap yesterday. I'm sure it was just frustration with himself, but he needs to work on his own things before jumping on anyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
