To say Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers hasn’t looked like his old self recently would be accurate, but with one major caveat: The decline in Rodgers’s production has come mostly on passes to wide receiver Davante Adams.

Over the last three weeks, when Rodgers throws to Adams, he’s 15-for-35 for 129 yards with no touchdowns and one interception. That’s a completion percentage of 42.9 percent, an average of 3.7 yards per pass, and a passer rating of 41.2.

Over the last three weeks, when Rodgers throws to anyone other than Adams, he’s 58-for-103 for 618 yards with five touchdowns and no interceptions. That’s a completion percentage of 56.3 percent, an average of 6.0 yards per pass, and a passer rating of 90.2.

No analysis of why there's a problem, just that Rodgers/Adams aren't connecting well.

I'm talking about the several times he is throwing his left leg off the side and winging it when he has no one coming after him.

Aaron Rodgers is not the biggest problem, unless he is changing run plays to pass plays on a regular basis. The Packers were getting something like 5+ per rush from Eddie Lacy and James Starks and the next drive was pass, pass, pass and punt.

I find that tremendously infuriating because when you're getting five yards a clip, you keep pounding that bitch. It runs out the clock, it gives your defense rest and more importantly it gives you excellent opportunities to add points.

What reason was there that the Packers stopped running the ball? Maybe that question doesn't fit in this thread? I don't know, but I just don't think Aaron is responsible for more than a fraction of the issues with the team.
