Rodgers frustrated with performance

Did anybody catch the post game conference with Mike McCarthy and Aaron Rodgers?

You could see from the moment he stepped on to the podium he was annoyed with himself.

The stats?

23 of 34 passes
299 yards
112.3 passer
3 Td's
1 INT's

What strikes me is the absolute authority in which he dissects his own game and the few errant throws he made.

It's fascinating seeing someone's drive and determination on display.

I think I like this demeanor more than the "awe shucks, interceptions happen" demeanor.

It seems as if the whole team has a likewise demeanour, and I for one love it.

It's the "sweep the leg" mentality.

The one thing that strikes me is his recall of not only who he threw too, but where the D was lined up on every play.

He can bring up games from a year ago and says who he threw a TD to to win the game and describes the play.

He has an incredible memory for the details of the game.

I want to go out like my Grandpa did. Peacefully in his sleep.
Not screaming in terror like his passengers.

112.3 QB Rating. Most QBs only dream of that number. Yet everyone including Rodgers himself thinks he was a bit off yesterday.

What an amazing QB.

This is a placeholder

Two things I want out of this season:
1) Packers win the SB.
2) 🇦🇷 breaks P Manning's single season QB rating record.

I already got one of the things I wanted this season - us sweeping the Vikings by 22+ pts.

This game was under P Manning's single season QB rating record. Not acceptable for #2.

Do you think 🇦🇷 is aware of P Manning's record? I'm willing to bet anyone that he is and he's gunning for it.

Those who think that players are unaware of stats are delusional. I have heard many NFL players note their fantasy teams, for instance.

as others have stated, I do agree and appreciate that he's not just paying lip service to his "off" performance. Other unnamed QBs may revert to aww shucks mode to explain interceptions and poorer performances, but this compulsive attention to detail and desire for perfection is what has, and will continue to make Aaron Rodgers so enjoyable to watch.

Mucky Tundra (8h) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol

buckeyepackfan (8h) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier

buckeyepackfan (8h) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol

Mucky Tundra (8h) : Jacobs gonna be OK???

Zero2Cool (8h) : Watson gonna be OK???

packerfanoutwest (12h) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (12h) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (12h) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (15h) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (15h) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (15h) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (15h) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (15h) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (15h) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (15h) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (15h) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (16h) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (16h) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th

beast (16h) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (16h) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (17h) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (17h) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (17h) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (17h) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (17h) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (18h) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (18h) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (18h) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (19h) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (20h) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (20h) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (21h) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (21h) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (21h) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (21h) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (21h) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (21h) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (21h) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (21h) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (21h) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (21h) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (21h) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (21h) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (21h) : I literally just said it.

packerfanoutwest (21h) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't

Zero2Cool (21h) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.

Zero2Cool (21h) : Yes, if they win one of three, they are lock. If they lose out, they can be eliminated.

packerfanoutwest (21h) : as I just said,,gtheyh are in no matter what
