In other words, freelancing. Dude even admits that Aaron passes up guys who are open to look deep.

This team will never go all the way again until (or should I say unless?) Aaron starts playing consistently.

As a football fan and a jazz fan I dig the comparison. Keep on beboppin' Aaron, I love the excitement!

That's a bad attitude. After all the exciting plays AR has made you focus on that. So fickle. 🙄

The question is... Is Nerd wrong? The guy has me blocked but that doesn't mean he's not right. I think he is. Aaron doesn't or hasn't played within the offense. Jordy's return vs. Atlanta took him out of his game. He likes those big plays just like Brett did. He's just not quite as seduced by them as Brett was. Brett was completely wild and off the rails at times while Aaron just conservatively tries for big chunks. He's much smarter about things when he's throwing deep but it's still stupid for him to always be looking for some big play.

Nerd's crusade has validity just like those few who crusaded against Brett.

Aaron is the best I've ever seen but you can't be the greatest ever if you suffer the lapses he suffers.

Aaron's fine. He's not a god. He's a very good to great player, but he has several weaknesses. He can't and won't do it alone. He needs a defense and some slightly better coaching and scheming. Until the Packers field a defense that isn't largely pathetic, the Packers will not win another Super Bowl unless Aaron Rodgers plays like a god, which he did for most of the Packers winning streak, but even that probably wouldn't be enough. It's not a realistic expectation for him to do that though. It's great if it happens, but not realistic. It IS very realistic to expect a good defense that can shoulder some or a lot of the load, something the Packers either aren't willing to construct or are just incapable of doing so. Until that happens, it really doesn't matter what Aaron Rodgers does.

As always, Aaron Rodgers is the least of the Packers worries, and is the only reason they are anything more than a 4 to 6 win team that doesn't make the playoffs. That's not to say he's blameless, but it's all about prioritization because every team is going to have some weakness, or several. Much of this Packers coaching staff and administration wouldn't even be employed if not for Aaron Rodgers. Aaron pulls more than his weight, when will everyone else start pulling theirs? That is the question that needs to be asked. Perhaps Aaron Rodgers would do much less if he thought his defense was anything more than an embarrassment. He's unlikely to find out anytime soon, unfortunately.

Excellent post. However, just because Aaron is our best player doesn't mean he has no responsibility to play better. He does.

We are a pathetic group without him and that's pretty sad when we could be dominant like New England.
