JS ARTICLE "WITH SB IN SIGHT< RODGERS DOES NOT DELIVER

[Freak Out]

What has changed is that defenses have adjusted to this offense since late 2011 and its still not clear the Packers have adjusted (though there have been signs) and the changing of the receiver corp has meant that it seems possible now to game plan the Packer passing attack away with a talented Defense.

And as mentioned above by Joe, the idea that you need to "get back" to pinpoint passing by looking off Troy Polamalu and throwing it behind his earhole is great, if your leg was functioning.

This is just trolling.

There are things he has to work on. He still doesn't look short fast enough, and he still holds onto the ball too long while rarely throwing it away. And something in their audible system has gone awry, I saw Rodgers check into more bad runs this year than ever before. But this is a team issue, not a QB issue.

The fact of the matter is that Dom Capers has out-coordinated McCarthy at the end of the season two years in a row.

Dom for HC.

I wonder if Rodgers is going to start changing his approach soon. He's had some injuries now that have affected his last 2 seasons.

Both of them occurred while he was in the pocket, so unless changing his ways means spending less time there I am not sure that the recent past would justify a change. If his body were starting to break down then I could see him wanting to change his style, but I don't see evidence that either of these injuries is age related.

Rodgers may have been in the pocket when he broke his collarbone, but he held on to the ball a long time. I don't recall how he originally injured his calf.

I actually think he showed some improvement this year at getting rid of the ball more quickly.

Hamstring and calf injuries occurred out of pocket. If we go back to other years, one concussion occurred out of the pocket.

The Packers with a healthy Rodgers destroys the Chickens in that game.. My take.

I'd WAY rather lose 61-7 then what went down in Seattle

That's because you are off your meds.

Also because its not your job to build a decent team

I'll drink to that!

Crazy stuff here. Much rather lose bizarro last second crap than not be competitive. You guys are just totally spoiled.

If I were a coach or player I might agree. But as a fan, seeing my team blow a berth in the Super Bowl is more heartbreaking than another bad loss by a bad Packer team.

I just looked at the 2nd half again and in terms of A. Rodgers performance I have him passing 7 of 13 for 63 yards.

Aaron Rodgers was sacked one time in the second half.

The Packers offense had three X Three and Outs.

The Packers offense had one X Four and Out.

He had one run right for 12 yards that helped set up the Mason Crosby's game tying FG late in the 4th Qtr.. That drive took one minute off the clock from 1:19 to :19.

In that drive Aaron Rodgers passed 3 of 5 for 36 yards. Jordy Nelson made two receptions for 15 and 6 yards. Randall Cobb made one reception for 15 yards between Nelson's two receptions..


** In the 4th Qtr. with 6:53 to 4:00 remaining on the clock the Green Bay Packers had two 3 and outs.

Aaron Rodgers passed once in those two series ... the drop by Andrew Quarless on the right sideline on a good throw. That ball had to be caught on a 3rd and 4 from the Green Bay 19 yard line. Aaron Rodgers seemed in disbelief that Andrew Quarless missed that pass. I certainly was.



**I cannot find against Aaron Rodgers in my examination of his play in the second half. His role in that half was obviously limited 'only' making 13 pass's.

More heartbreaking at the moment, no doubt. But an entire season does not have to be defined entirely by the team's last moment. If someone gives you the choice of experiencing one season and only one season, which would you take, the 2014 Packers or the 1980 Packers?

2014. But 61-7 didn't really matter. It was loss #8 in a 10 loss season. The Apococollapse kept the Packers out of the Super Bowl.

Wtf?

[ThunderDan]

I'd WAY rather lose 61-7 then what went down in Seattle

I wouldn't. Teams that lose 61-7 struggle to finish 4-12. I dealt with enough of that growing up. I like going to the playoffs almost every year and having a shot at reaching the Super Bowl.

[Bretsky]

A 61-7 loss in a regular season game is a Fart in the Wind compared to the worst playoff collapse I've ever witnessed when a win meant a Super Bowl Birth

Yep. 61-7 was embarrassing, but just another loss for a lousy Packer team.

All I meant was that was the worst loss in our franchise's history not including the post season.
