If any sort of aura of power can eminate from Rodgers, then it will come with time and from winning.

Agreed. I think many forget that Brett was not the beloved icon he is now in his first few years. I think some of my frustrations with those that stay uber-positive regarding Rodgers, is that sometimes these players need to overcome obstacles to take the next step for themselves and not for anyone else (for the record, those that constantly crucify him are equally annoying). If we always contrive ways to claim that Rodgers has played as good as possible, I think that limits him. He will make mistakes. Rookies make mistakes. Vets make mistakes. There is rumor that even Brett Favre still makes mistakes. Learning, growth, and the attitude of the starter was what I was hoping to see this year from Aaron (once Favre was traded) and he seems to be on track, just not quite on schedule (for the lofty expectations).

Back on topic, I view the Dallas game as the turning point. The second half of that game was when the happy feet came back for Aaron and it became obvious how long he was holding the ball. That game exposed some holes on our team, and we haven't been able to hide them the rest of the year.

What do you think was the turning point?

Positive turning point:
The discovery that sending Z2C to his throne during the game leads to TD's.

Unfortunately, this was soon negated by an influx of Vikings avatars here.

I think that's fair. But to continue being fair, I haven't seen many (at least on this board) just give Aaron a pass or say he's made no mistakes. I think we've all recognized the mistakes he's made, but the difference is that we know it was to be expected. The uber-positive stuff, IMO, has occurred as a response to the folks who won't let up with the message that he's no good or a pariah or something.

Myself, I know the kid's anything but perfect. He's got lots to learn, as I would expect due to his inexperience. Still, I'm glad we've got him and aren't dealing with problems at the QB position like teams such as KC, etc.

I think the turning point was the Vikings game after the lose to the Titans. We had come off an OT lose but had confidence. Then we lose to the Vikings on a last second FG. We beat the crap out if the Bears but after that we went back downhill and no we haven't won a game in over a month.
