Rodgers does not run the offense, Rodgers runs the broken play after the offense. Remember back in 2011 when the Packers thrived on timing routes, quick slants, screens. When he hit receivers in stride moving across the field or down the field, we have not seen that in years. He has fallen in love with his myth, the big broken play, the free play on encroachment calls. Run the damn offense or get him out. He is worth a ton of draft capital and he is crippling their salary cap. As much as I love him, and I do, better than Favre and nearly as much as Starr, he has become both solution and problem, but often problem.
I know they wont trade him, what GM would have the stones. No matter, get it turned around this week. The offense can be good enough and the defense is getting stops the last few weeks. Its not like the Packers have to score on every possession which has been the case in recent years, the defense is dong better. Win this week. Win in Seattle and their brutal road stretch is done because they will then have 10 days to prepare for the Vikes. A little 3 game win streak here and I will feel much better, particularly if I don't see a cart on the field for another injury which injuries have had them snake bit the last few years. I want to see a game where the Packers generate a turn over or two and where they don't give another possession to the opponent by a dumb penalty on a fourth down negating the change of possession and giving the ball back to the opponent. No undisciplined fouls or play.
Go Pack Go!
