Rodgers numbers look good but he has been off today.

Very off today...missing where he normally hits guys.

Rodgers numbers look good but he has been off today.

For any normal QB his numbers look solid. For Rodgers, his numbers are bad. 60% completion is 13 pts below his season average. And he looks jumpy back there. Throws aren't on target. Not sharp.

If Tampa Bay finds a way to win this game, and the Packers clinch home field in a couple of weeks, would they rest Rodgers?

 

[Alex P Keaton]

Lucky.

I don't see how that scenario will happen, given that the 49ers have a very easy schedule.

 

[Alex P Keaton]

Now we know why the Pack is having trouble getting open - they're getting held. That was blatant.

Have you seen Charles Woodson/Tramon Williams play before

Either way, the answer is no. Rodgers plays until the 2nd half of week 17, at worst. Especially if the Bears and Lions are still trying to get a playoff spot.

3 PI, Illegal contact calls on this drive, pitiful TB

Yes. The Packers want to sit Rodgers for weeks 16, 17 and the bye. Rodgers needs the rest.

Um, are you watching the game? It's been a mugfest this entire drive. Keep trolling though.

 

[cr8f]

Another TD recipient but may not be true anymore.

Talib is killing me in this game knocking down passes, but the Packers D is hurting more the way they are not tackling. Try wrapping up this time.

 

[cvnpoka]

has jennings played much the 2nd half?

 

[zoonation]

Starks is a beast. I think he factors in the offense a lot more going forward.

What am I trolling about?I am watching the game, however my point is almost EVERY DB has contact down the field. Complaining about it when you're team is up and undefeated on the year is funny. I can remember countless games where Bears WR's couldn't get separation and upon seeing replays it was the DB's grabing/holding etc. Complaining is a moot point considering how many of them do it.But you will just disregard me because of a team I cheer for because you can't have an in depth discussion. Good luck being a in life. I bet you pat yourself on your back when "your" team wins, when in the end it's just a team we cheer for(we can pick any one of them).

You're pathetic, Tampa.

I think his receiving skills are underrated, it was his specialty at Buffalo.

 

[smackdaddies]

Packers Offense has been very off today. I suspect a lot of d coordinators will play the pack the same way as Tampa

Do you think Jennings/Finley are still dinged?

You calling, anyone a homer is hilarious.

A lot of cover 2, like the Bears. Leaves it open in the middle for Starks. Hopefully McCarthy is realizing that Starks needs to be fed more carries before he really gets rolling. No more of this timeshare stuff with Grant.

thought we had an agreement not to respond to each other? How dare I have a differing opinion than a Packers fan

 

[cr8f]

They're doing it again. Let weak teams hang around, raise their confidence and you can lose.

This team needs a killer instinct. Hope if they win it wakes them up.

 

[ang12]

Give Rodgers the ball at midfield. Great call.

Morris to his defense: "I know you can't stop their offense."

Fair. Although I'm guessing McCarthy will take 35 pts most days.

 

[footballnerd]

Starks hurt

You claimed you would not respond to me...you lied.He made acomment based on a drive with several penalties on Tampa.It was not a homer comment by him and you broight a bunch of irrelevant info to go after him.

 

[Reepicheep]

Pack might cover afterall.

 

[sho nuff]

There is your dagger!!!

And let Jordy Nelson tear them apart?

 

[smackdaddies]

I have been watching the game while laying a new floor, and it just seems like the Pack has been off.

 

[ang12]

Winslow gets owned by Bishop. Getting a little too cute trying to hurdle the defenders every time.

 

[Cheese and Crackers]

Agreed, but it might be a moot point. Stark's injury looked ugly.

 

[Chalie14]

Didn't hear or read anything, but did Jennings get hurt? He only had 6 receiving yards.

 

[Samuel L Bronkowitz]

Per @packerreport - James Starks has a knee sprain and Jennings has a shin bruise or "something" ... McCarthy wasn't quite sure. Updates tomorrow.

Good question. Anyone watch the game and can give an answer?

Final play of the first half, he came up a little gimpy, no mention of injury on the broadcast.He was targeted several times in the second half, but no catches.
