Sometimes I think if you did a poll of PH members, we'd have about 90% glass-half-full types and about 10% glass-half-empty types.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Rodgers throws the ball ridiculously fast but if you notice a WR on this team rarely catches the ball over the middle and doesn't have time to react (get down, juke, etc...) before a defender lights them up. That's because Rodgers gets the ball into the WRs hands before the defenders have a chance to react fast enough to break up the ball. It likely leads to some drops but it's worth it for all the extra completions, YAC, and safety that are gained because it's thrown so hard.

But Starks caught one and got lit up right away big time on one play, which a few play later led to another check down where Starks was wide open (but didn't know it) and prepared to take a hard hit before realizing he's not getting hit and taking off, but that delay possibly took away a first down. Happened on a couple of play too. Your right Rodgers is normally very good at that but he was off with that against Tampa.

I'd like to see Janis too but I think Adams will come around-always tough for rookie receivers to find consistency. I really think they need to make a concerted effort to get Quarles and Rodgers more oppurtunity. They've used the tight ends so little this year it would be a great change of pace-especially with so many 2 safety looks we're getting. Unless I'm mistaken, Rodgers really looks like he's got great hands and I don't worry about Quarles over the middle.
I think we'll be seeing a whole lot more of the TE's over the next couple of weeks.

I think he's still not used to the SPEED that Rodgers throws the ball. It gets to him faster then he has ever seen.
Once he conquers that, he will be a big plus.
If Rodgers keeps the faith in him, and lets him know he will still go to him, I think he will be fine.
Remember Jordy Nelson's drop of one last week that hit him right in the hands. It happens to the best.

The drop Davante had on that long pass across the middle was another, had a due draped all over him and another defender nearby and the ball went though his hands but had he caught it he would have had enough time to get down.

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason
beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back
Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous
Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D
packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show
TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half
