I have some concerns about Rodgers as well. I think he has the yips, but that comes from not trusting his blockers and his young WRs, most likely. Rodgers has a pretty long track record. When given a trustworthy OL and some experienced WRs, he has delivered the goods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was paid to be able to deliver the goods with a shaky OL and young receivers. Most QBs can play well with a good OL/WRs. Doesn't mean this is permanent, we may get Godgers back but as of now he isn't living up to his salary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leader Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Aaron Rodgers on last pass to Davante Adams: "It was just a bad throw" Least he didnt say this one stuck to his hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squire12 Posted November 26, 2018 Author Share Posted November 26, 2018 The offense looked fine for the 1st quarter +. If the WR were bad, then I can't see how things would have been clicking so well. Maybe someone with the all-22 can look at whether things changes after the first few drives, either from GB or from MIN? @AlexGreen#20 @skibrett15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our TE postion disappeared again. I think Graham got one reception. We'd have been better if we'd stayed with Lewis and Kendricks. I think Lewis was blocking better for AJ.

Once the script is over and the defense makes adjustments, that's when the young players have trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leader Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Kruse: Rodgers wasn’t good enough. The Vikings got 342 passing yards and three touchdown passes from their big investment at quarterback. Rodgers missed big-play opportunities and was terrible on third down. The national media will throw him a pity party all week, but don’t fall for it. On the final two offensive plays, Rodgers skipped a short throw to the flat and overthrew Davante Adams in the end zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me know how easy it is I'm not very good at throwing a football in the first place so I don't think this test will be useful at all. I didn't even mean for that to be blaming Rodgers. I think the collarbone keeping him out for a year, then not playing in pre-season, then busting his knee week 1 is a huge part of why he has seemed off this year. I'm just saying that we are paying him to be the best QB in football, so if he isn't even close to that (whether it's his fault or not) then we will be at a disadvantage. Give him some time to get healthy and I fully believe we will have Godgers back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said pre-game that if he couldnt go or was less than effective - park him on the bench. We dont (or didnt) need a decoy. We needed production from the position. It disappeared in the SEA game - and did a replay tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had it not been for the knee injury I would have no problem with putting blame on him. I'm just not ready to do that or think that he lost his talent overnight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on defensive adjustments, they might have to call a play they haven't practiced in a while. That's the disadvantage of having to play inexperienced players.
