Aaron Rodgers needs to trust his other options

Aaron Rodgers and Jordy Nelson fueled the Green Bay Packers passing attack last week in a victory over the New York Jets. This offseason Jordy Nelson signed a 4-year, $39 million extension and Aaron Rodgers isn’t being shy about proving his worth. So far Nelson ranks first in the NFL in both yards (292) and

Whatever, if Jordy keeps going off like he was against the Jets just keep slingin' it to him.

Some of these guys really reach to write articles at times.

How many times have we seen Jordy go off one week, then Randall, then the next week it was JJ?

The guy that wrote the article must be the same in that commercial(mr. obvious).

Davante Adams had a great game, for a rookie, will be interesting to see who starts as the 3rd wr this week.

Targeting Jordy will only become a problem if Aaron starts throwing interceptions, I don't see that happening.

Reading the injury report, I wouldn't be surprised to see The Packers come out in a 4 wr set at the start.

Mike and Aaron have always been about take what the D gives you, The Lions double up on Jordy, someone else is going to be one on one.

I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

The Lions secondary is terrible and injured to boot. It should be a field day for Rodgers IF he has time.

No way Jordy continues this pace. Opposing D's aren't going to let this continue to happen. Cobb's time to shine is near. I'm really really curious about Davante Adams. So much so I picked him up in one of my fantasy leagues. He is a wildcard. Is he ascending? Will Janis get on the field in his home state tomorrow? Would love to see Janis explode onto the scene tomorrow.

Also, will Bostick make an impact at TE. We've gotten next to nothing from that position. Rodgers surely misses Finley and perhaps Bostick starts down the path of picking up the slack tomorrow.

Lacy will likely struggle so I fully expect the run to be abandoned if not even attempted to be established at all.

Hoping Stafford throws us some balls tomorrow.

Rodgers has NEVER lost to Detroit in a game he started and finished.

Ted Thompson sits on his hands per former GM: "because they’ve had 25 fricking years of great quarterbacks. Of course it works. Try it without a special quarterback."

On topic, I feel like Rodgers has a pretty good reputation for spreading the ball around to all of his weapons. Two games in, this seems way premature to be worried he's now all of a sudden Colin Kaepernick and incapable of looking past his top target.

Rodgers does have the tendency to hoem in on one receiver. For some reason he dont like to throw the shirter dump off passes and wants to go for the longer pass alot. Some of that is McCarthy's playcalling to. I dont think Rodgers does it all the time, but he does do it. Then the next game he will spread it around to 7-8 different receivers. Rodgers just hasn't seemed himself this year so far. Hopefully he startshitting on all cylinders as we will need it with how poor this defense has played and injuries to the offensive line. He should have a good day tomorrow if he can stay upright.

I've seen evidence of this over the last two games for sure. Hope it isn't a trend. I love his connection with Jordy. We all do. But I hope as the season goes on, that we start spreading the ball around more like we have known to do in the past and has brought us a lot of success.

Mucky Tundra (10h) : Based on Gutes comments, now I don't feel as silly having 13 picks in my mock the other day

Zero2Cool (11h) : Zach Wilson to Broncos.

Zero2Cool (14h) : Gutekunst says he'd love to have 13 or 14 picks. He's trading back huh lol

dfosterf (21-Apr) : One playbook to my knowledge. I was shooting for facetious.

beast (20-Apr) : I'm not sure they have different playbooks for different OL positions, and Dillard run blocking is supposedly worse than his pass blocking..

dfosterf (19-Apr) : The only problem with that is he isn't a guard either.

dfosterf (19-Apr) : Put him at right guard. That is where he will be coached. That is where he will compete. He is not even allowed to look at the LT playbook.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Kidding aside, I hope the best for him.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Went to a Titans board. One comment there. Not very long. I quote: "LOL" They don't sound overly upset about our aquisition.

beast (18-Apr) : OT Dillard has been absolutely horrible... like OG Newman levels

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Suit him up and have him stand in front of the big board as a draft day cautionary tale.

Zero2Cool (18-Apr) : Packers sign T Andre Dillard.

Mucky Tundra (18-Apr) : Adds most of the information this time of year comes from agents.

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : Saints have agreed to terms on a contract with former Packers wide receiver Equanimeous St. Brown.

dfosterf (8-Apr) : I say he is better than so many of these draft picks

dfosterf (8-Apr) : Question of the week for me: Has anyone besides me done any deep dive into the potential of Alex McGough, our 3rd string qb?

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Or in Tunsil's case, something gets released day of draft or day before lol

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Seems every year someone does something pre-draft.
