Dunno, really think wind might have been a strong factor.

The knuckleball he pushed through for 3 looks like it would have been good from 45. That was possibly the ugliest made FG I've ever seen.

I was in the "I don't care if Teddy resigned Bakthiari or not. I thought he was going to be easily replaced for a lot less money. I was certainly wrong.

I don't get some of the Aaron Rodgers "hate" by some here. Yes, he tends to hold the ball too long. Without the injured legs, that hasn't been much of a problem, as he often would take off for big gains. Now he can't do that. But he also can't throw the ball away if he's not out of the pocket, as that would be a penalty.
The throw at the end to Nelson.......how can anyone find fault in that? Would you RATHER have a QB that CAN'T make that kind of throw?
Remember the win at Detroit last year? Or the throw to put the game in O.T. in the playoffs?
He's not just lucky, he has the arm to do that.
And Adams SHOULD have had 2 TD's. You sure can't blame Rodgers for those drops, can you? He put the ball right where it had to be.
Rodgers isn't perfect, by any means. But I'm sure as heck glad he's on OUR side!!!
And Adams......he was mad at himself. And without him we would have lost more games this year. He had a lapse. Every player does! He holds himself accountable!
James Jones had a similar problem. Then made up for it with some pretty awesome catches.
Adams will be fine! And I'm glad he is also on our side!

As a quarterback, you're told to have a internal clock that counts to three. Once you get to three, you scramble for yards or throw it away. Every play I do this and after I hit 3 and he's not loading the rocket, I get nervous. Sometimes you have to take what the defense is giving you and make them pay.

I have to make this point again here. Just because I (we) see an open guy, that doesn't mean Aaron sees him or didn't already go through that progression. So I do give him a pass several times. There are some where you can see he has room to plant and throw and is looking shallow and throws it deep into coverage instead of hitting the open guy shallow.

Now he's also got a big game winning highlight for SportsCenter. Good for him.

Glad it also happened to work out for the team, in this instance.

wpr (22-Apr) : now 3
Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Who? What?
beast (22-Apr) : What is he supposed to say? He doesn't want players currently on the team?
Martha Careful (21-Apr) : meh
Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Sounds like Walker and Wyatt will be with Packers for beyond 2026

wpr (21-Apr) : Only 4
Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : If only we had a topic to read about and discuss it. That's something new website must have!!!
dfosterf (21-Apr) : Justice Musqueda over at Acme Packing put up an excellent synopsis of the Packers 1st round options this am
wpr (19-Apr) : 5 days
beast (18-Apr) : 6 days
wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
