Obviously, yes.

As the 2016 football season approaches, the results of last season linger. In Green Bay, where a Super Bowl win six years ago has been followed by five straight disappointments, the effort to apportion blame for the outcome to the 2015 season continues.

Bob McGinn of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, in a position-by-position preview of the team for the upcoming season, puts plenty of it on quarterback Aaron Rodgers.

The headline declares that Rodgers “needs to rebound from mediocre season,” and the first paragraph proclaims that Rodgers is “coming off his worst year at the helm of the Green Bay Packers.”

The numbers suggest that, indeed, every other year since he became the starter in 2008 was better. But 2015 hardly was a disaster for Rodgers, who completed 60.7 percent of his passes for 3,821 yards, threw 31 touchdown passes against eight interceptions, and generated a passer rating of 92.7. Plenty of lesser quarterbacks would have loved those numbers, and Rodgers surely would have loved the support around him that plenty of lesser quarterbacks enjoy.

It is entirely stupid to blame one person or one thing for a teams problems. Rodgers certainly holds some of the blame for last year but there are at least a dozen other factors that contributed to the miserable shit-show that was the offense last season.

Losing montgomery's explosiveness limited this team. Already without Jordy or Jmike, there just wasn't enough.

Aaron still disappointed me though.

He has to prove he's not declining.

Don't like to blame injuries because all teams get them, but it's pretty tough to have an elite offense when all the starters on the Oline missed games and played injured all year, lost the number one receiver and nobody stepped up their game. Cobb and Adams were both injured more severely than let on. And then to top it off, Lacy was a fat fuck all year, and forgot he was a professional athlete.

Also, how many top draft picks does that defense have? Can Dom ever get them to play at a high level?

Aaron Rodgers is the least of our problems.

No matter how good your QB is, he can't do it alone. The WRs were sub par (injuries) Lacy was out of shape, and the O-line had too many injuries.
Even with that, Rodgers had 31 TD passes, 3 more then he had the year they won the SB.
So he deserves SOME of the blame, but not an over large amount.
Hopefully this season things will come together.

As far as I'm considered, the offense as a whole deserves blame. There are few that maybe should not be blamed, Richard Rodgers, James Jones, etc... as they got the most out of their (limited) talents. But the none of the other pieces looked normal last year.

Aaron Rodgers looked above average (which is very VERRRRY bad for Aaron's normal standards). And people have blamed the OL and the WRs (who do deserve blame) but the times when the OL and WR would do well in a game... Aaron could not make the most of it, and struggled throwing some passes (especially a couple of deep balls to Jones) on target. I still think Aaron was mentally or physically injured last year during the Broncos game.
