Very encouraging to see. The schedule is no joke and we'll need a top 5 offensive line and a healthy Rodgers to see us get to where we want to go.

The OL is doing well, even with Bulaga out. There is still a lot of work for the OL as Rodgers seems to be scrambling way too much. It would be nice if he got as much protection as that qb does, from the team in Massachusetts

I don't know what games you guys are watching, but Rodgers is being moved out of the pocket on most pass plays. The reason there aren't many sacks is because of Rodgers' athleticism and football acumen. But go ahead and believe your stats.

Bahk definitely still has some issues with that bull rush, and Barlcay seems to still be shaking off the rust, but overall I think our line play has been SOLID! Considering we've faced two of the better pass rushing defenses in the NFL the past two week I'll take it!

They owe Aaron Rodgers for making them statistically look better than they are.
The eye test tells a different story I'm afraid.

BTW, what did those guys do to Uffda? Probably banned for having a different point of view.

I would like to think it is a combination of both the O-Line playing well TOGETHER as well as.... Aaron's feet and eyes in the back of his head. NOTE: Key word. (O Line Playing Well TOGETHER)

I think getting the ball out quickly helps keep the sack/pressure numbers down.

This by no means verifies that thought, but I thought it was somewhat interesting to note.

On passes that traveled 10+ yards in the air, Rodgers completed (66%) 18 of 27.
On passes that traveled 9 yards or less in the air, Rodgers completed (85%) 49 of 58.
