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.

beast (20h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (20h) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (20h) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (20h) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (20h) : I guess I see players in Packers Hall come way later

beast (20h) : Yeah, usually teams hall of fames are a much lower bar than the NFL

Zero2Cool (20h) : is it uncommon for Hall before Ring?

Zero2Cool (21h) : S Xavier McKinney named first-team All-Pro by NFLPA

Zero2Cool (23h) : Jones took his sweet ole time!

Zero2Cool (23h) : Yeah, he's in the ring of honor, just saw video and his name is up there

Zero2Cool (23h) : Didn't they have a thing in 2023 for Jimmy's ring of honor? I swear I saw it

beast (23h) : Though if they're legitimately trying to re-sign MM, then it makes sense.

beast (23h) : Jerry Jones still hasn't put Jimmy Johnson in the Ring of Honor, but he's in the NFL's Hall of Fame, Jones is petty

Mucky Tundra (8-Jan) : Unless the Cowboys are planning an extension, seems kinda petty

beast (8-Jan) : Cowboys denied Bears request

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : From what I'm reading, MM is under contract through the 14th of January; after that he's free game

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : McCarthy let go or not extended??

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Chicago Bears have asked the Dallas Cowboys permission to interview Mike McCarthy for head coaching vacancy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : The winners page that is

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I was not hoping for that. It messes up the page lol

beast (6-Jan) : Thank you, and I was really opening we were going to get 4 or more tied for the top 3.

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Oh so the refs do know what intentional grounding is

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (6-Jan) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : I'm hoping for BLOODBATH. Pummel one another.
