  • No more excuses for Aaron.

    Many have overlooked his poor clutch performances. Many have made excuses for his poor playoff performances. At this point he is not an all time great. We whine on and on about Capers and the defense but it's aaron and the offense that fails us time and time again when it matters most. His claim to fame is not throwing picks and racking up numbers against weak teams. Hope he proves me wrong the 2nd half of his career.

    He will get knocked out of the game next week, so your Tolzien era can begin.

    As much as you hold him responsible, and he's not been sharp, the O-line, Lacy, and the receiving corps are total disasters.

      Adams got free a couple of times early and Aaron missed throws. The OL was fine today. Did u miss him hitting the dirt on 6 easy completions today? He is the heartbeat of the offense. He is a veteran. Any blame should go through him first and foremost

        He has become decidedly inaccurate in the pocket when he begins to get happy feet. No doubt.

        But getting hit 20 times a game will do that to you. I am stunned he isn't doing a Favre and throwing on the second of his three step drop.
        Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

          the o-line was not fine today

          the couple of plays were he had time to throw and missed were anomalies

              is that what that meant?

              they showed that stat with 3 sacks, 7 hits and 10 knockdowns or whatever it was

              i wasn't sure if that meant 10 total knockdoens with 7 being hits and 3 being sacks or if it was sacks+ hits+knockdowns

              if it was 20, then he got hit a third of the time he dropped back to thrown, thats a lot

                McGinn's article today quoted the typical scouts and head office personnel, who said the o line is fine, even better than they thought, but Rodgers reluctance and indecision puts them in difficult situations.

                At this point, I don't have a clue.

                  you weren't here in the game day thread, but i mentioned that larry and taush said on the pregame show that the o-line was fine, and last week was only a problem because of assignment confusion on a few plays

                  i don't get it either

                    Same could be said about Adam's only three times over.
                    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 said that in the playoff loss last year. Injured calf or not, I thought there were poor decisions on several plays in their final drive. I discussed it play by play, but most simply said, "it's the calf...."

                      so, I agree with you on this. Other than the one SB run, in many, many clutch situations, instead of throwing the inexplicable pick as Favre would often do, Rodgers can't seem to pull the trigger at times.

                      That said, today I don't blame him for the two point conversion failure. Watching replays, Adams appeared to want to cradle ot against his body. Extended arms, and a catch with his hands ala James Jones may have avoided the db.

                        The refs not flagging on the Adams PI all game hurt too.

                          There's no one reason you lose to the worst team in the league at home for the first time since the USSR was a thing.

                          The only guy I can say is part of the solution instead of part of the problem is James Starks.

                            It wasn't the officiating, it was the flat, lackluster play by the offense.

                              Watching Tom Brady today, he looks much better than Rodgers even when he has a bad series. But that could be the Patriot's superior coaching.
