Look at how other team's WRs are getting open every play, but if you look at the Packer WRs, they are not getting any separation, which leaves Aaron Rodgers out to dry.
I don't care how good your QB is, if no one is willing to go BEYOND the route to try to give him something to throw to, you can't blame the QB.

These are the same guys who were running routes and dropping balls when we were 6-0. Go back and look at James Jones's TDs. He was "open" on maybe ONE of them. Mike doesn't scheme guys to get open. He just expects them to "beat their guy." Which used to mean, "go up and get the ball."

Are you saying that all the WRs on this team suddenly forgot how to play at the same time?

If you watched the games, YES. The WRs are NOT getting open.
Had AR had some bad throws? Yes.
But to act like Cobb, Adams and Jones have been playing well would be ignoring the truth.
Seems that you just want to heap blame on Rodgers and give free passes to the WRs and invisible TEs.
AR has missed some passes. But to me the majority of the lousy passing game is on the play caller and WRs.
That's my opinion at least.

He's right. Do what's asked of you. Lombardi's old saying...you should be able to tell the defense what you're doing and still gain yards.

The biggest issue I have with this team is that it never shows up for a full 60. And if fact, they're showing up less and less.

Could Davante catch more balls? Yes. Could RR break a tackle. Theoretically.

But what is DIFFERENT than when we were 6-0? Aaron. He's not right. It also seems to me that he's scapegoating Davante.

Please tell me what the WRs or Rodgers were supposed to do in the last 4 plays of the game.

Too many dropped balls in the Bears game... and even a dropped TD in the last 4 plays of the game.

I have never been a Janis fan. But he needs to hit the field. His speed alone will get him, or someone else open. Replace Davante with Janis this week. See what happens.

Since they worry about Janis catching the ball and Adams sure as hell hasn't been, I think it's stupid as hell to not trot Janis out on the field. Even Featherstone ended up catching passes with that blazing speed.

You trot Sam Shields and Jeff Janis on the outside with Randall Cobb at slot. That's gotta be good for one good play because what defense is going to expect that? Yeah yea, no defense would expect it cuz it's a dumb idea. Whatever. I would still throw Shields in at WR 5-10 plays a game to stretch a defense.

Might as well try Peppers at TE too, he's not doing much on D.
