the decline of aaron rodgers

[mraynrand]

AR can still make the crazy throws....but he gets lazy and makes a few horrid throws as well. I just don't think he has the drive he once did.

welcome to life. Or maybe he just needs to giggle more.

So playing with a bad knee last year was just a goof?

He’s fueled by doubters. Always has been. Maybe ppl doubting him now is his fuel? R e l a x

It was a mistake.

then, if true (which i doubt), extending him was a bigger mistake than i ever imagined.

I don't know what the H is going on with AROD

He's missing some passed that are inexcusable.

And the second spike of the ball into the ground early on showed obvious frustration.

I'm losing faith in AROD and I don't have faith in Matty. Not a good combo

Don't lose faith over a couple of blown plays. If fans did this across the board, at best all you'd have left is the Patriots playing scrimmages against themselves.

He wasn't being entirely selfish. They stuck to a vanilla scheme, couldn't practice more advanced stuff or do an install. Gute and Flower said this helped evaluate the bottom half of the roster, which is great. But with less and less practice and fewer starters playing in preseason, it did not help them get ready for the season.

At 3-0 I would hardly say they aren't prepared.

AR should be happy that his offense has kept him off his backside a lot more. His OL get to actually hit the DL instead of being punching clowns for Khalil Mack. I think he hit the turf exactly one time last game. Running the ball has a trickle down effect.

This isn't the same AR as 2012, but it doesn't have to be. This is still a savvy AR who can get free play TD's. He can not turn the ball over and ruin field position. He can make some smart plays and stay healthy and keep Timothy Boyle off the field. We can win an Owl with this guy, so lets just accept that he won't carry a team, but we actually never won an Owl when he WAS carrying the team.

The Cowboys are gravitating away from run-first - and they have arguably the best RB and the best O Line in the league. That ought to tell people something.

They LITERALLY just had 2 100 yard rushers in the same game!!!

[texaspackerbacker]

I didn't say they had gone all in for the passing game, but they gained more yards passing, and a lot of that running, especially by Pollard, was after they had the game in the bag against a weak team.

Not sure that has anything to do with the Texans, but OK. Rodgers did a lot of dodging, especially of Chubb.

More importantly, did anyone actually keep eyes on Jenkins? I honestly thought he got trashed once on a run, but never saw the replay, and did not notice him the rest of the game.

these first 3 games for dal they've guys running wide open down field. their passing yards are way up. last game they also had two guys run for over a hundred. if they've gone from 60/40 to 50/50 on their run/pass ratio that's a good thing for them and shouldn't be looked upon as a negative.

And nobody has said you should run 60% of the time. You need to run enough and effectively is all I have ever said.

As long as this is the ARod thread though, I'll add a critique. The TE seam I saw in preseason has been non existent through 3 games. Its definitely time to blame it on ARod instead of fat mike.

I watched M4 in Tenn last year. Marriota hit RB/TE often. Too much. Its part of the offense. ARod had better adjust.

I like Robert Tonyan Jr., perhaps he will step up and be the man. Oh, by the way, what happened to that ball of fire TE Sternberger that GB drafted with their 3rd round pick? ( 75th player drafted in 2019)
