    Did Rodgers' calling players out for lack of prep help the squad?

    Well....Aaron was one miracle in Motown away from being 0-5 in 4th quarter comeback situations this season. The other 4 stalling out on the goaline with a chance to tie or take the lead. While in my opinion, he has always been unclutch, his vision and accuracy in general has been very substandard this season. Take the last 3 red zone ints. Those are throws we are just not accustomed to him making. Is he emotionally and mentally fractured because of Jordy's absence and the teams uneven play? And his deepball accuracy has been wretched all year. Why? At least once a game one of our slow ass receivers somehow gets some separation deep and Aaron can't make a solid throw. I'm at a loss. What gives with this guy?

    With the injuries and shuffling of the OL, plus the inconsistency of 1) the run game to produce to reduce the two high safety looks and 2) the play callers at times self-reducing the number of rushing attempts even when the score is close enough to continue to run the ball. They may even start out with a balanced offensive attack, but at some point, not necessarily when behind by two scores, they get more pass happy.

    How many clean passing plays do the Packers have where they are able to go to a primary or secondary read and get production? How many times does that become a scramble drill because 1) the receivers can't consistently get open in the passing concepts of this offense and 2) Aaron is more quickly under duress? I'm not saying every other QB has time to make a ham sandwich back there, but I have to figure if Rodgers was seeing open receivers in our passing game, he'd be trying to throw to them.

    Is his confidence shaken? Probably, but he's not going to admit that openly. If you are QB and most every time you drop back you don't see guys getting open regularly and are typically doing the scramble drill to find an open receiver with not as much bail-out this year, your confidence would probably be shaken too. That said, he's the two-time MVP and this is a long-established coaching staff, so they should have come up with answers to execution by now. Could it be lack of productive personnel? We'll see when Jordy and Ty get back next year and when they bring in whatever help they find during this next off-season. Perhaps TT will look more closely at free agency to help his 32 year old QB.

    Yep. About the only passing play we can run with any rhythm is the quick out with 1-2 other guys blocking.

    Interestinlgy, "confidence" is the primary aspect of the QB position that AR espoused when schooling Kirk Cousins this past offseason according to KC..

    Its been working very well for KC as of late, rarely looks rattled and I watch 95% of the Skins games locally

    Every off-season, MM has a red letter promise. Fixing the offense will obviously be his cause cé·lè·bre this off-season.

    Well here we are. For the last16 games this guy can't execute a competent offense. Can't be consistent on throws that are available . No vision. No precision. He's playing like a middling pedestrian qb. He is a gigantic part of the offense. One he, MM, and TT have constructed . Such a shame. In 2010, we thought the sky was the limit. No it appears, that was our limit and we are on a inevitable downhill slide for this team.

    other than Lacy, the o-line, and the odd good game from X wr, the o sucks big time...and it starts with Rodgers. over throwing, under throwing, throwing behind, throwing too low, throwing too high.

    Even Lacy and the running game failed. 21 carries for 71 yards isn't going to help the passing game. The turnovers killed us more than anything. Of course, Arod missed a couple throws with men open for a TD.
    One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

    I have a lot of respect for Lacy after what he tried to do out there today on a bum ankle. It is shameful TT and MM are wasting roster spots on WRs who can't get open and leaving our running game in this perilous position. It looks like Starks is out for a while so they better address this before Thursday. It is embarrassing watching this team perform like the damn Cleveland Browns.

    Yup. We should have picked up a free agent to help us out. A couple are available. At the very least we should have activated Don Jackson. I think one reason Monty fumbled is he's not used to the contact RB's attract on a regular basis.

    Browns are 0-6. Packers have lost to 2 teams that are a combined 10-1.

    i'm not talking about today. i'm talking for the season. lacy was hurt today so he gets a pass. the Packers o passing system has been figured out. it's components have been nullified by defensive technique, injury, and ineptitude. i called for us to draft a wr but no. the system needs scrapped in the off season. i think a regime change is probably in the offing too.

    I wanted to draft a big, fast WR as well. The interesting thing is we did. The frustrating part is that Davis is seldom utilized and he's the fastest guy on the offense, with maybe the exception of Janis.

    If everyone keeps saying Cleveland Browns, its going to happen.

    You really want Mark Murphy hiring a GM? Mr. Ribbon Cutter?
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Nice perspective joe. This could be a good thing. AR is playing like shit. He can't make excuses any more. This could be the low he needs to reapply himself to doing the simple things well!

    So nothing else that smacked him in the face like a 2x4 in the preceding 12 months was enough to convince him to "reapply" himself?

    Sorry, Rodgers has become the diva that Favre was from 1998 until McCarthy showed up and hadn't gone fully pussy yet. This loss won't change a thing.
    It's such a GOOD feeling...13 TIME WORLD CHAMPIONS!!
