What is lighting them up? Rodgers in the full 5 games he played threw for more yards and TDs than any of the previous three seasons.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Your list of (available at draft time) WR better than Davante Adams is ... putrid. I'm going to go back to doing work things. Nothing to see here.

Hitting Davante with some quick slants would do both him and Hundley a world of good.

I think it was early in the game Brett threw a nice deep ball that hit Adams in the hand. Why he didn't put two hands out is just stupid in my opinion. It was a very catch-able ball. At least it looked like it on the TV live version.

It was a one hand catchable ball for 17. A guy with better speed would've run under that one.

Not giving more effort on the deep pass was sad, he didn't go all out. If he would have stretched to get two hands and gone to the ground, even if he still missed at least he would have given full effort. I think it was Devante on another 3rd down, Hundley hit him in the hands, the defender was right on him maybe a smidge early, it was contested but still a ball a top WR should have made.

Not that I would suggest getting rid of him, but when contract talks come up we have to remember his is not what Jordy was and should never get paid like he is.

Further, as it pertains to just winning a game, he knows Hundley is terrible and they have little shot with him, so he's not giving the effort he gave with 12 when he should be giving more to compensate. Actually, he should be giving the same effort with either...all out.

He's a good to very good WR. He's been amplified by the greatness of 12.

I don't claim to know what is in Devante's mind. The common idea is Oh without Rodgers he won't get the same numbers and that will lower his free agent value. I would say that if he can perform and make catches instead of missing from a backup QB who isn't a future HOF, that he would do more to increase his value than simply putting up good numbers from Rodgers. Showing that it isn't just the QB throwing that makes him.

I think the guys know our season is over come week 17. So why go all out when it won't matter in the end? JMO
Anyway, I saw (I think it was TE Kendricks) open quickly, and Hundley could have hit him for a nice gain. He didn't throw to him.
