The end zone INT, total B.S. missing Adams by 5 yards out of bounds on a simple out in the first quarter...horrendous.fumbles were aided by pathetic protection, but still part his fault.
But we can't downplay the wrs as "just a drive."If you're the OC or Aaron Rodgers who the heck would you trust to throw to this year? Jones and Cobb sort of, but that's about it.

Of course, everything you say is 100% correct and usually this balanced approach is the correct approach. But, to answer your question, you trust to throw to your receivers regardless of what happened the play before. If they eff up; YOU TRUST THEM ON THE NEXT PLAY. And here's why: If you dont, then in this offense you will be a QB with a 45 passer rating against non prevent Ds. Or what we've seen from Lord Errant Assgers over the past several weeks.
It's like the proverbial pitcher in baseball with a sterling ERA and a less than .500 record. Two outs and an error is made; pitcher gets pi$$ed, loses poise, and gives up 7 hits and 5 runs.
Rodgers and Favre are lot alike. When GB signed Jim McMahon; Favre said he thought he was going to lose his job; this quality/fear is what made him great. In about 2000, Favre came to realize he was great, his insecurity instead of being channeled into unprecedented QB play and striving to get better; was channeled into becoming the greatest self-entitled egocentric narcissistic lecherous and misogynistic stat whore the world has ever known.
Rodgers is also an insecure little child: "Colleges, all NFL teams ignore me, I'll show you." He harnessed that insecurity into a physical and
mental focus that is unprecedented in NFL QB play. But, now Lord Rodgers sees himself as the greatest QB of all time, "I be Arron Rodgers and my crap dont stink and by golly, no one who has the right to play with me better have crap that stinks either; and I'm so smart, much smarter than anyone on the offensive Staff, they better do what I tell them to do or else." He is too focused on everyone doing their job right to perfection and when they dont he pouts and sulks like a petulant lil' debutante that didn't get the dress she wanted for her cotillion. A star player needs to realize AND ACCEPT that his mates are not all going to be perennial all-pros; especially when he's sucking up 1/7 of the money. His focus on being superior to all that have the honor of getting a whiff of his body odor is severely detracting from the mental and physical focus he brought to the game in years past.
A secure minded adult player, Man's up. An adolescent looks to blame others. Rodgers is incapable of manning-up. He's incapable of fixing his current mental state of mind; because the problem is with the way he's thinking.
How does this get fixed? I have no clue; it's actually quite hopeless; but ya gotta do something! Gotta bench him! Bench him v. Minnesota and watch him show the Staff what a HUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE mistake they made over the next FOUR playoff games.
