Where are the A-Rod Haters? -- Regular Season 1

[Chevelle2]

Wow.

Rodgers had 4 incompletions you dumbasses.

F O U R


I cant really think of anything he could have done better last night.

Partial, does it kind of hurt that your weeks and weeks of mindless drivel and banter is starting to prove all for naught?

Really, though...

The last two games Rodgers has played for us he has passed for 80%+ ... now, if I'm correct, those are the ONLY games he has played significantly in.

I'm not statistics major but something tells me those numbers are good.

[/b]

2 of the 4 incompletions were fucking throw away for god sakes.

I don't know whats more unreal. That stat, or that people still continue to say it was a "solid" performance.

I've hear efficient a lot more than solid and I think I'd be one that says efficient too. The 80% thing is awesome, it really is.. you don't see it very often but we didn't really throw any of the tough passes, I mean he did only attempt 6 passes in the 2nd half. There will be games this season where we find out what kinda QB he is when he has to throw to win and not be babied with play calling so he doesn't make any mistakes. Don't get me wrong, and I'm sure I'll be classified as a ARod hater but its the truth, this one game will not tell us the whole story on this guy nor will it tell us if we made the right move or not. Side not, I loved the TD pass.

He went 6/6. What more can you ask for? You can't fault him for accomplishing what MM asked him to.

When was the last time Favre had an 81% completion rate.

And didn't he complete 20 passes in a row!! (in a row?! eh eh) against the Cowboys for a Packers team record. I don't know about you guys but there is NOTHING more consistent than a QB who misses a couple/few passes a game. You kidding me? Blind? On crack? Have a gerbil stuck where it shouldnt be?

I don't expect this every week but for christ sakes, wtf does TD statistics have to do with anything when the team is scoring. That TD pass he threw was PERFECT. He missed on that one to the TE in the corner of the end zone (thats about all i can think of). To Driver? Great pass, didnt see that kinda touch from Favre very often. And not only was he completing passes but most of them were spot on, not forcing the WR out of stride. Seems like he throws a pretty catchable ball. They um, seem to be catching them.

Shit, how many times would we pass the ball on the goal line with Brett just so he could get his touchdown numbers the last couple years? We never QB sneaked...

Ive said it a million times on this board and people still don't get it...

Rodgers IS NOT and WILL NOT be Brett Favre. We don't need "aww how cute" antics at QB. Brady doesn't do that shit, Manning doesnt... those guys win Super Bowls.

And that's *why* I want him as our starting Quarterback. There are 11 guys out there and they all have a role. I can't imagine Rodgers playing his any better.

Rodgers played well. The play-calling got conservative in the second half, but Rodgers played about as well as you could expect considering some of the down and distances (penalties). He did make a few tough throws (Jennings, Driver, Hall, etc.) He had the right mix of dink and dunk passes and take a chance passes. He also didn't come close to taking a sack, throwing a pick, or fumbling. That was a huge key to this game.

If that 68 yard TD pass to Driver hadn't been called back, the Pack wins comfortably and he goes 19 of 23 for 244 yards with 3 TDs (2 pass, 1 rush) with 0 sacks and 0 turnovers. You really couldn't ask for any more.

[Scott Campbell]

......this one game will not tell us the whole story on this guy nor will it tell us if we made the right move or not.

I agree with that.

However, it does tell us a whole lot more than his previous 3 seasons. And that previous lack of exposure to playing time didn't keep a whole bunch of people from trying to label the pick as a bust.

People should remember early perceptions of Rodgers when evaluating the Harrell pick.

Maybe so, but you are overvaluing completion %. A couple of Rodgers completions were bad decisions in which he checked down rather than make a riskier throw. There was a pass or two for a loss, and two or three more that gained under 5 yards. Most quarterbacks in this league can dink and dunk with a high completion percentage.

Rodgers was playing very conservatively last night in order to build up a rhythm and not turn off the fan base with a big interception. However, if we are up against a high scoring offense, he'll need to take more risks down field in order to keep pace. That'll hurt his completion percentage but put more points on the board.

Points are what count, not completions. Rodgers got the job done last night, but it took him 5 downs to score that TD pass and he had trouble maintaining drives in the 2nd half. That's why Rodgers was "solid but not spectacular" as everyone keeps saying. McCarthy will have to unleash him and start calling consecutive 20-30 yard strikes before people will begin to recognize him as an elite caliber QB.

[HarveyWallbangers]

And didn't he complete 20 passes in a row!!

No, but he was good in that game.

Isn't this what we begged Favre to do so much? Check down?

I tried to look it up but couldnt find it...

I can tell you the last time Rodgers had an 80%+ completion percentage though.

The last regular season game he played for us.

Yall kidding me? This kid is good.

I didn't say the 6/6 was a bad thing, I was pointing it out that we'll see what kind QB he is when in the 2nd half we can just sit on leads, thats all. I am very pleased with Arod, I wanna make that known.

Oh and Chevelle... 82% against the Detroit lions last season..

18-23, 180 yrds and 3 TDs against the Seahawks in the PLAYOFFS last season

Well I stand corrected........that means Rodgers should complete about 90% of his passes on Sunday.

I didn't.. I like gunslingers... just how I feel but there are several ways to play QB

[Scott Campbell]

I seriously doubt he was checking down to pander to the fan base. He was playing within the West Coast offense.
