That's not what I meant, how is he getting to the spot with 2 defenders he had to fight through? Tonyan isnt swinging around to the outside to block, he's blocking infront of him he would only get there if the play was designed that way. And 22 just went around all the blockers to make the play. I just dont see how he could plausibly block 22 on this play but that's just me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll still bank on Rodgers winning us more games than losing them for us. So what you're saying is, you don't want anybody to criticize Rodgers under any circumstances? Message received.

I don't disagree, but for any chance of the play to work that's what needed to happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is Rodgers supposed to know that motioning Lewis is going to bring 2 defenders to that side? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is motioning Lewis to that side going to end up with any possible better alignment than what is already there? It doesn't get better than that. He was handed a gift and completely threw it away.

AlexGreen#20 Posted September 25, 2019 Author Share Posted September 25, 2019 No anticipation, throwing late to the outside as always. Forget throwing the ball before the receiver makes his break, the ball isn't even up to Rodgers' ear after the break. This lets the DB break on it and break it up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
incognito_man Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 So he's definitely a bad post-snap QB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call the run to the right against the super soft side and forget the motion How the heck do you audible that ? What's the audible for forget half the play ...ready ... go. I speak mainly as far as blocking assignments go as well. Plus everyone is waiting for the motion so hearing "go" would certainly throw everyone off. As someone else said, they also didn't know 2 guys would follow the motion. I think you would have to audible to a new play. Film recognition by the defense ? I'm also still on the fence with the outside zone against today's defenses Edit - that overthrow was painful to watch and I knew it would be brought up sooner or later. I sure do hope that's not post 35 Rodgers Edited September 25, 2019 by cannondale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOnlyThing Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Even assuming, arguendo, that the OP is correct and Rodgers made a poor pre-snap decision on this ONE PLAY IN SUNDAY'S GAME, the notion that this somehow constitutes compelling evidence that Rodgers is no longer "good as a pre-snap QB" as the OP posits is patently absurd. On the other hand, the amount of time and energy spent dissecting and criticizing the Packer QB over this one largely inconsequential play does, inadvertently, reveal just how far some will go to push the anti-Rodgers narrative. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
