Not having Nelson is gonna make Aaron abandon his footwork and stop going through his reads, right?

Not a very good article (sorry, not trying to criticize you for posting mint, still a good topic of conversation). Especially the last two point were reaches for a story speculating that AR's quick response verifies he's injured?!? The Olivia comment was completely fabricated.

I speculate the answers are more simple. Mike McCarthy talked about him trying to do to much. Many on this board have speculated it's about him constantly holding it, looking downfield, stat whoring, etc. Our theories and MM's comments seem to align and seem like a more rationale explanation than his sex life.

theres alot of reasons, not having jordy is absolutely # 1 after that it could be anything, aaron got off to a great start, and i feel there isnt a good enough reason for him not to get back into that kind of pattern, as he would say RELAX !!

5 reasons why Aaron Rodgers (and the Packers running game) are struggling:

1 Bakhtiari 2 Lang 3 Sitton 4 Linsley 5 Bulaga

If there is a reason beyond the O Line, it's because teams figured out that containing him from getting outside and then collapsing the pocket tends to stop him. The fact that this happens so damn quick, and usually can be done with just 4 guys pass rushing again comes back to the weak O Line play.

Hopefully Aaron doesn't throw the tablet after he misfires in the bedroom...

Ha, good work by Olivia! As I mentioned above, aside from just the Olivia comments, that was a really weak and cheap article by Rob.

The only good about this is that I'm sure Aaron is well aware that there isn't going to be a never-ending ass kiss fest for him like there was for Burt "I can do no wrong" Farve while here. If there were illusions of invincibility, I'd think they'd have worn off by now.

I think the shoulder injury is worse then they are letting on.

#10

The #1 reason is that Mike McCarthy can't adapt to what he has. He hasn't adapted to losing Nelson and he hasn't adapted to the OL problems.

And Demovsky is an idiot. He is now #2 in my list of idiot journalists afer Bob McGinn who can't just lose his throne.

Mucky Tundra (18h) : @AaronNagler · 2m Both Jordan Love and Malik Willis were Limited participants at Packers practice today.

Zero2Cool (21h) : Johnson didn't make it until 2020. Ring 2023. 🤷 Personally, he should have been in years prior to Hall.

Zero2Cool (21h) : HUMP DAY

beast (21h) : Guys that have a good shot at making the NFL Hall of Fame usually get into their teams pretty fast

beast (21h) : Yeah, but is Kampman and the others in the NFL Hall of Fame?

Zero2Cool (21h) : Johnson was Hall of Fame, 2020. Should haev been in Ring a year later, not three years.

Zero2Cool (21h) : I could be wrong there though

Zero2Cool (21h) : Guys like Kampman, Tim Harris, Al Harris, etc all over 15 years. Hall of Fame is 5 year wait

Zero2Cool (21h) : I guess I see players in Packers Hall come way later

beast (21h) : Yeah, usually teams hall of fames are a much lower bar than the NFL

Zero2Cool (21h) : is it uncommon for Hall before Ring?

Zero2Cool (22h) : S Xavier McKinney named first-team All-Pro by NFLPA

beast (23h) : I missed it, sorry, but he got into the NFL Hall of Fame years before that

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

beast (8-Jan) : 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.

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

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : congrats beast on 2024 !

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : congrats porky on winning 2023 pick'em! (oops sorry)

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : Packers have $60M+ of 2025 cap space on paper TODAY.

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : Missed FG into a Lions TD; that'll do pig, that'll do

Mucky Tundra (6-Jan) : That might be it for the Vikings

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.

Zero2Cool (6-Jan) : 8 people in pick'em would have won any year with their total lol
