What I don't like is: Rodgers had guys open short, and almost never threw to the open guy. Then ended up throwing into triple coverage. Does he NOT see the RB that is 5 yards down field, with no one within 10 yards? Better to take a 5 or 6 yard positive play then a no gain play.
I've seen this all season so far, and I don't get WHY he doesn't hit the check down.
Does anyone else here see this, or am I missing something?

This easily could've been a 3TD day for Rodgers. The stats don't say it, but he wasn't horrible. Remember the TD to Cobb that was called back, Nelson dropped one that led to an INT, and Richard Rodgers dropped a perfect pass.

Of course, against NYG's depleted secondary, more should've been done.

Both Cobb and Adams had good performances. I still don't know why Abbrederis hasn't seen the field. Even Janis was in on a play.

Yep, this has been an ongoing discussion for quite some time. Sometimes it is hard to even watch the offense because I see an open guy underneath - but Rodgers runs around in circles in the backfield only to launch the ball to a well covered receiver. It is great to make a few deep pass attempts, but it shouldn't be every set of downs.

The other side of this is some don't understand that deep routes are important to keep the underneath guys from being blanketed. It is surprising what pulling even just one defender deep can do when you need to move the chains. Again, rather than using this to our advantage - we see too many deep throws that could have otherwise gone for a first down.

One thing to remember is none of us fans know what play was called and what his progressions are supposed to be on the play. Not only do receivers need to get open, they need to get open at the right time for the play design. With video start to finish of a play we can make "educated guess" on what we think was supposed to happen.
