Is Aaron Rodgers still good as a pre-snap QB?

Yeah Bulaga made every penny on that play he straight up blocked air. Tonyan tried to block his guy in the back a bit,  Lewis puts his left arm on VM. It's like the entire right side of the line ( minus Turner ) had red capes in their hands. Terrible blocking. Oh and Jenkins gets beat across his face although that is a tough block when the guy is already inside leverage.

AG how do you put this on AR? Just asking so I know?

 

Who is Bulaga supposed to block on that play? I guess you could argue he was supposed to chip and help Turner, but that doesn't make sense with Lewis trying (and succeeding) at pinning VM inside.

Tonyan is trying to get outside of Jewell, but doesn't have a prayer.

Look at the defensive alignment before the motion from Lewis and then look at the defensive alignment after the motion, and tell me that our veteran QB didn't horribly misread this?

I asked in my comment your thoughts on this. Does AR have the read on that though. I mean, I really do not know does AR even really get the ground game it's not like MM used one. I know he does but is he trying to do what his coach wants. Again motioning Lewis our best blocking TE into that side shouldn't be the worst thing to do.

If our QB either can't, or isn't allowed to, read when a side of the defense is overloaded to stop the run, we are so royally screwed it isn't even funny.

If there was nobody there for him to hit that sounds like awesome pre-snap recognition by Rodgers. A free tackle to escort the RB down the field looking for someone who needs to be blocked sounds like a win to me!

You know damn well that isn't how that works. 

This is a called outside run. We surrendered the inside to Miller.

I just can't see how to judge aaron for this because:

(1) Are we sure Aaron told Lewis to motion? Or was it just built into the play?

(2) If Aaron told Lewis to motion, how would he know it would draw 2 defenders?

(3) Prior to the motion, we had a hat on a hat right of the center, after the motion, we still had a hat on a hat to the right of the center (just two more bodies)

(4) Is it worth a time-out once Rodgers saw 2 defenders shift?

Why go with the motion at that point? Call the run to the right against the super soft side and forget the motion

I was just going to reply to you, I got way ahead of myself. Even if we are after that motion, why not just take that right away.

You know more than me, he's not expecting it to pull two guys (?) but I have NO IDEA how typical that is.

Guessing GB wasn’t expecting two guys to follow the motion.  Then time ran out.  Just spit balling here.

After viewing this single offensive play out of over 50 from Sunday's contest against the Broncos, and without knowing the complete context of why the play was called as it was, if all 10 of the other offensive players executed the play as they were supposed to, etc., etc., how could any reasonable fan possibly not be convinced that Aaron Rodgers is no longer good as a pre-snap QB?

I mean the evidence is absolutely overwhelming.
