He has pins in his shoulder, he will never throw the same again. You can't fix it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s not exactly noteworthy. 90% of contracts have an “out” in the final year of the deal, or even in the second-to-last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fl0nkerton Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 suggesting that the he + the coaches aren't noticing his poor mechanics is silly I'm sure they see it in the film every week 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is relatively accurate and efficient on short passes. Rodgers has made a living off from the deep ball, that is never going to happen again and he needs to play to his current strengths and not his past. He needs to use those passes to set up the run and once to twice go deep to keep defenses honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighCalebR Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 If he steps in to throws he still delivers pearls. 2nd drive: Aaron jones on a little wheel he back foots and tries to arm it out there and its way off. Then it comes to 3rd and 10, plant foots and throws a beauty on a shallow post to Davante. This offseason he needs to take a real look at the mechanics. He still has the arm, still knows how to play ball, he needs to find a way to deliver and it's not just all arm, the rest of the body needs to get involved. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazrimiv Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Rodgers will look like a different player if he ever learns to love throwing the short/intermediate routes as much as he loves chucking 40 yard prayers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazrimiv Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 He still has a real issue with accuracy even on easy throws, but breaking his terrible habit of heaving everything deep is priority #1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fl0nkerton Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 lol he threw like double the amount of deep balls yesterday than he did in any other game and now he 'heaves everything deep' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has hardware on the clavicle. I know it is expecting a lot of posters to understand anatomy, but they are not in his shoulder. Could he have rotator cuff issues? Sure, he is an older player in a throwing sport. But that likely isn't from the clavicle injury. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that likely isn't from the clavicle injury. Medically speaking, you are correct. Not everyone is going to understand what you said. It is all intertwined. The muscle groups will make up for the weakness in the clavicle and altering the throwing motion. When all area become weak, the rest becomes weak. Rotator cuff issues can be caused from this.

I'm tired of people praising Rodgers when he hits a throw despite terrible mechanics. It just encourages him to go off his back foot more.
